Horrible day yesterday
So I had a horrible day yesterday eating wise. I went over 18 points!!!!! The thing with counting points is it opens your eyes to how bad you ate before and it really helps explain why you are so over weight. I didnt realize what two bowls of pasta equalled up to!!! My LORD was I shocked and all I could think about was all those times I would eat 2 - 3 helpings ( and by helpings I dont mean the recommeneded serving size I mean 2-3 bowls full.. so when I measured it out and calculated my points after 2 bowls ( each bowl had 2 cups of pasta ) I was blown away. And yest I had a sprite from the vending machine a 20oz bottle it is was 4 points.. I used to drink like 2-3 every day!!!!! SO although it killed me yesterday I did learn alot, and it really opened my eyes to the things I was eating and drinking. Also I learned the hard way the importance of preplanning your day point wise!

pre planning
Oh yes, pre=planning is so important. Why do we tend to forget? I guess we just get lax sometimes. I'm trying to pre-plan a lot more now!

Hey
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I have tried to resond to your questions by private message twice, but it's not working.
Anyhow as far as the moves try not to be hard on yourself, you are learing something new. It took me a while to get adjusted to the moves as well. So be patient and consistent and you will eventually become a pro.
As far as the tummy tcuk, the position is very important for you to fill the difference. Although she says tuck your tummy I think if you tilt or thrust your pelvic bone in (like a reverse crunch) yuo will then feel the the difference in the abs. I hope this helps.
Take Care

here's to a bad day.
i had one too. i'm getting ready to add up my points i probably had like 60 (i'm allowed 30).
i just didn't have time to eat the healthy stuff and i preplanned and packed healthy food. we can't be perfect all the time *sigh*
the important thing is to learn from the bad days so we can have more good days. at least we're aware of what is actually going in our body and not just shoveling it in mindlessly.
good luck on the next day, i hope you have a better, on program day. :)
