For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
How do you do it?
Do you just not count points that day and not use and of your extra points all week?
I normally don't do this but we have DH's big work party tonight and I know I'll drink and splurge a little and it's buffet so hard to track points.
I tracked my other food for the day and got my AP's so do I just enjoy myself within reason and not use extra points the rest of the week?

Re: For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
when i was on WW - i pretty much my extra points for when i was not sure and alchol - i would guestimate a bit and try portion control too.
i tried to save extra points for nights out or the weekend parties
but my saving grace at parties is the crudite - i love raw carrots and cucumbers - so i try to snack on those first

Re: For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
I use my 49 points throughout 6 days a week.
On weigh in day (Sunday) I never counted, never used any weekly points and just ate what I wanted. Basically for me, WW was a 6 day a week program (sometimes 5 if I was bad on Saturday too!)
I lost 60lbs and have kept it off. I'm not saying its necessarily the best way. But it worked for me.

Re: For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
I did pretty good overall. Definitely didn't stuff myself and luckily there wasn't a huge dessert spread like last year.
I'm thinking I'll estimate 20 extra points on top of the 20 I had left for the day and hope for a good WI next Friday.

You should be fine. I found if you splurge the same day of your WI and then its an entire week before the next one- its all water weight and will be gone by then. It's worse when your splurge the day before (then it always shows up!)

Re: For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
I weigh in on Saturday mornings and really don't count my points on either Sat or Sun (depending on when we have parties)
I then have 5 days to get back on track till weigh in.
I'm going to try to stop that though and not cheat as much since it's crunch time and I have to lose these last six pounds.
I also rarely dip into my weekly points, and never into my activity points.

I'm all set for the new WW, just got everything but when I was hard core with it, I would do it the day after weigh in.

This is pretty much what I do as well. My weigh in day is Tuesday and I always splurge Tuesday nights. I also splurge on the weekends if I have parties to go to. If I don't then I stay on track over the weekend.

Thing....I find even splurging a little on sat & sun I am still watching my portion & try to eat well or close to point target anyway....I guess u just get used to it

Re: For WW girls who have a cheat/splurge day....
I use my 49 pts. if my husband and I go out to dinner, or if I have a party or something. Other than that I don't really dip into them.
I think it also helps that I go to meetings on Thursdays, so if I do eat out on a Friday on Saturday night any excess sodium or whatever is flushed out of my system by the time weigh-in day comes around.
