Yummy Spaghetti Squash

I had the most wonderful lunch today! Spaghetti Squash with sauteed tomatoes and onions. It was so yummy! I could have a HUGE portion and still only use 2 points up. It was very filling. Everyday I seem to feel more energy- which is really refreshing.
I was talking to my Aunt today about the weight watchers eating style, and I was explaining to her how easy this has been- It is easy for me because I don't really feel like I am on a diet. I feel like I have just changed the choices I make- I am choosing wiser- Example- instead of double serving of pasta I take double of salad. The other trick I have learned is that I need to eat small portions throughout the day. I try to eat something small every hour or hour and a half, this way my metabolism is constantly working- and last but not least... I drink SO much water. I have been drinking between 2 and 3 liters everyday.
I am REALLY starting to get excited in seeing my family next weekend! I can barely wait.
I will keep you all posted on my weight loss or gain (hopefully not the latter)

So glad for you! It is so much better to lose weight this way than the way I lost it--by getting sick.

I can't wait until you get a menu going and then I will work off your menu :-)
I have a hard time counting points so I am just focusing on more water intake and healthier choices. I have made salad for dinner every night this week.
Healthier choices, smaller portions, water and exercise... that is the key.
