mad as hell!

so today i log on to weight watchers to track my points.  and they started the relaunch.  i have more points and weekly points, but the foods i’ve been eating for the last 4 months or so have doubled, and in some cases, tripled in point values!!!!  one good change is that all fruits are now 0 points.  before, most were 1 and some were 2 points so i’m glad that i can now eat fruits and not worry too much about how many points they are.  i love bananas and they were 2 points so it was tough to really enjoy them knowing that other fruits were less points.  but, anyway, i’m still mad!  i don’t weigh in until thursdays and i don’t have a lot of extra points right now because of thanksgiving.  i’ll give this new points plan a try, but if it doesn’t work, i might stop paying for weight watchers and go back to doing it the old way on my own. 

i stopped doing nojomo.  it was boring to me this year.  and i had nothing exciting to write about.  so, it was one less thing to worry about.

i had all intentions of doing some grading tonight, but i had to go grocery shopping instead.  with all the traveling and visiting i did over the holiday weekend, i completely forgot about groceries.  i had a few cans of soup and some fruit cups and i brought those to work for lunch.  ended up having a hot dog and a bowl of soup for dinner.  but, i need real food!  so, it was off to the grocery store.  i ended up getting a christmas gift for my friends that just got married too (i was at target) and a new space heater.  my old one crapped out over the weekend.  i haven’t tried the new one yet, but i’m sure it will work just as good, if not better than my old one. 

instead of grading, i think i’m gonna clean.  i need to fold and put away laundry and clean the bathroom.  i mentioned to new guy that i had a ton of sweet potatoes that needed to be consumed last night (thru a text) and he never got back to me.  this morning, he did so i wasn’t worried anymore 🙂  he said we can work it out.  i said huh?  he said "me coming over there for sweet pots."  i figured that was what he meant but he responded in such a weird way.  then when i turned my phone on after work, there was a message from him–just a smilely face but it was a nice way to end the work day. 

oh and i got my comcast bill today.  it was half the amount it normally is 🙂  i called them to cancel my landline and they said i would save more money if i rebundled my package (hee hee!) and they were right!  so i’m glad that i’ll have some extra money in my pocket for the holidays. 

alright, this dump is getting to me.  time to get off my ass and clean!

I was VERY curious about WW’s new program. From what you just said, I’m kind of glad I’m not counting points anymore. It sucks that your favorite foods have gone up in points. How much has your daily points allowance gone up to make up for it?
