172 on the nose

That's down 1.8 since last Thursdays weigh-in.  Not holding my breath, I fluctuate a lot.

In keeping with my previous routine of paying myself for activity, I am going to earn $2.5 for every Weight Watchers "Activity Point".  In the few days I was on the program last week I earned 9 points = $22.5  I have a couple straggling walks from November still in the old jar, so we'll make it $32.5 this week.

I hope this new take on dieting shows results because so far it seems like something I could live with.  I have options, and I do not feel deprived.  I actually have made my day more tasty instead of less.  My favorite is breakfast: mushroom & green onion omlet w/ a glass of ovaltine.  On days that I don't feel like cooking I have cereal + ovaltine that is worth the same amount.

I still struggle with a nagging sensation after dinner that I want some chocolate.  We don't have any in the house, so it's easy to just tell myself 'tough luck'.  But I know from past experience that sometimes I will break down and just whip up some brownies from scratch (oh the dangers of knowing how to cook!).  Has anyone out there found a cure for these nagging feelings??
