For those of you following the Weight Watchers Program, you should be logging your daily food intake. Doing this is an incredibly helpful tool in getting you to your weight loss goals, and a recent study by the American Journal of Preventative Medicine found that people who keep a food diary enjoy twice the weight loss of those who rely solely on dieting and exercising. So, I’ve created this awesome Weight Watchers Food Journal that you can download and print – for FREE! It’s very easy to use — simply write down the food that you eat and its Points value, and then deduct it from your daily Points balance. You can even track your Flex Points used! I also included little check boxes that will help you make sure you are consuming your recommended portions of water, dairy and fruits & vegetables. Using this Weight Watchers Food Diary couldn’t be easier!

I hope you’ll find this daily food journal as helpful as I have and that it will help you stick to your Daily Points Range and be aware of what you are eating everyday.

Weight Watchers Launches the new Momentum Plan!

LaaLoosh — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 15:25:29 +0000

As the New Year comes upon, this is a great time to make a commitment to healthy eating choices. And if you are currently a Weight Watcher or are thinking about joining, now is the time do it! They have just started their new Weight Watchers Momentum Plan. Before the Momentum Plan, Weight Watcher members had two plans to choose from: Flex and Core. Now, everyone will be on the same plan: Momentum. Which is really the best of both Weight Watchers plans combined together to create Momentum. The whole philosophy behind this new plan is, “Don’t eat less, eat smarter.”

The New Weight Watchers Momentum Plan

The new plan still incorporates a lot of the favorites:

* The Weight Watchers Points System
* The weekly Points Allowance
* The Good Health Guidelines
* The Filling Foods List

The new aspect of this plan is the Filling Foods List. The concept is that if you choose foods that are higher in fiber and water content, they will keep you fuller for longer than if you eat other foods. There are studies that have found that people will eat the same volume of food every day. The actual space that the food takes in your stomach might have more to do with how full you feel than the calories, fat, or protein. And of course, you can still use Weight Watchers Online as an incredibly helpful tool to help keep you on track and provide valuable information and fantastic low Points recipes. The best part of the Momentum Plan is that it’s new and different and there is a whole new set of materials to get every week right when we need them the most: right after the holiday season. There couldn’t be a better time to get yourself motivated and give this new Weight Watchers Eating Plan a try!
