lsdiamondHere's some things I've been wondering about re: WW. I get snippets here and there from Dotti's, but haven't found anything really truly explanatory. Maybe I will find it if I look harder, but maybe someone who reads my LJ already knows. ^_^
Banking Points? I get the idea behind it - eat your minimum allowed points for a few days, especially so you can "safely" go over your maximum points on a given day. It's meant for when you're going to be eating out. Somehow, it just doesn't seem like a good, sound idea to me. Seems like it would throw off your body and confuse the things going on.
Measuring (body)? I'm getting the idea that it's necessary (or at least a good idea) to measure the body in places - waist, thighs and calves are the ones I've noticed so far. Are there other places that need to be measured along with the weekly weigh in? Where should these parts be measured? (thinnest or thickest part?) I'm guessing this is so you can figure your BMI as you go along. Is this hugely important/helpful?
I had another question, but now I can't think of it. >_
