WW for Nursing Mothers

So Sarah over at Moske Monkey Business reminded me yesterday about Weight Watchers.  When J and I first got married I gained some weight since we were staying in and cooking at home a lot.  So I joined WW that following January and I actually lost 15 lbs and kept it off.  It worked better for me than any other diet I have ever tried.  So last night I dug out all my old books b/c I remembered that you can calculate points if you are a nursing mother!  I calculated my daily point allowance (this was on the old system NOT the new points plus program but hey it worked for me once) and I got out my trusty points calculator.

The other day I did pick up some Smart Ones breakfast items and a pizza at the grocery to try and they were all good so I am getting back on the bandwagon ASAP.  I get 30 pts a day since I am nursing and I still get the extra 35 to spread out over the week.  I'm hoping I can start chipping away at this last 25 lbs so maybe I can get back to my pre-pregnancy weight by Summer and start really working out again.

When it's not 20 degrees outside I am going to walk in our neighborhood but it's just too darn cold right now!  I wish we had room for a treadmill.  Maybe in the garage?  I don't know!  If anyone want the information on how to calculate points on the old system leave me a comment and I will email you the info.  I didn't know if it was "street legal" for me to post that information online haha!
