WW Ladies - How Do You Count Pigging Out on the Weekends?

Do you count it as using your entire flex points or do you actually try to account for every point?
I have the entire flex points to use because I start my week on Friday (for that exact purpose)

I think I need to lock myself in a room with no food.

I count every point so I avoid pigging out. For me I have to because it's starts the path down and ugly road. I know some people give themselves a free day on the weekend and don't count points then they just don't use flex the rest of the week.

I try to count as closely as possible on weekends when using my flexpoints. Normally if I am not exactly on point, I am maybe over by 5 points. For me I have to count and not just call it a free day or two, because then I would go way over. Counting, no matter what the result will normally save you from a true disaster. Using 35 FPs and then going over by 5 when counting is a heck of alot better than calling it a free day, not counting and ending up consuming 75+ points! You will be fine.

Try making a list of foods you would like to incorporate during weekends that you might not normally have during the week. then prioritize how badly you want to eat them. Then work them into the program, either by watching how much you eat of each one or by saving some for the next weekend.

You just have to make a plan that works for you- you can do it WITHOUT locking yourself away from food!

Depends on the week. I WI on Sat. morning, so I tend to use most, if not all of my flex pts. over the weekend. When I am doing it right, I do try to journal as much as I can, even if I am over. I find it helps keep me in check for the rest of the week.

Re: WW Ladies - How Do You Count Pigging Out on the Weekends?

I also try to count all of the points I eat. If I can't figure it out exactly, I will guess higher. What I have been doing lately is checking out restaurant's webpages(like chain restaurants), look at the nutrition info and figure out what I am going to eat. This way I have a ballpark figure of how many points I have left.

Re: WW Ladies - How Do You Count Pigging Out on the Weekends?

So if I'm REALLY on plan I count everything and I try not to go over. For example, went shopping at waldbaums yesterday and DH points out the free samples at the bakery. I wasn't even going to look but there was carrot cake and I LOVE carrot cake! They had small pieces of it cut in wax paper...I was only going to take a bite but I had a whole piece! Anyways, I didn't want to but I counted it and ended up using like 8 flex points last night but I don't care. It was worth it. You kind of have to pick and choose your battles.
