so its back to counting my 22 points a day tomorrow morning. the simply filling technique was a nice break from tracking my points. but if felt too limited at times. its much more structured because there are many more rules but I don't work on a planned and prepared kind of day when it comes to food. i wake up and choose from what i have in my house. with the simply filling technique you need to be prepared. it is doable and it wasnt as hard as i thought it was going to be. but i would love the option of grabbing a sandwich or having real sugar to be back in my plan. lol. so back to counting.
i did try a new recipe and was open to a few more things with this technique though. i might try it again if i ever feel i need more of a structured diet until i reach my goal.
i'm going to try and aim for 1 pound a week. it'll be great to make my first goal by my 23rd birthday (march 12th). but i'm not gonna stress it. i think slow and steady wins the race. :)

Hi Lera! I just found your blog by googling "filling foods", and i wanna say congratulations on your weight loss, you really inspire me to start weight watchers again (post holiday pudge, blah).
Anyway, i wondered if you could answer a question about this simply filling technique: i've been reading up on it online and from what i understood, you get to eat the filling foods+35 weekly points of non filling foods if you want? is that correct?
I'm subscribed to the french weight watchers online, but unfortunately they don't have the momentum yet, and i am sick of counting the points!
Sorry for the rant!
Thanks in advance,
Meri
hi, thanks!
well if you were on the plan before and maybe know about the core plan...the simply filling technique is almost identical to this. you just eat until you are satisfied and you eat foods that are under "simply filling" such as whole grains and non fat milk. you still have your 35 points a week to indulge or have a little wiggle room.
oo how's the french weight watchers? any different?
hope i answered your question. and good luck on your journey!
