The thing I love about WW is that you have Weekly Points Allowance and you can earn Activity Points so if you veer off course, you have a lot of leeway before you go Off Program.
It's like a learning curve for me as I am still trying to feel my way around food as a nonsmoker that lives alone. I get bored real easy being homebound and more often than not I snack to combat that boredom. The internet, tv and movies can only take you so far.
Hmmm that sounds like an excuse, but it wasn't. I really am trying to learn new habits and last night I learned that even healthy cereal like Kashi Nuggets. I don't know if it was the carbs, the yeast or just that it was cold cereal but it is a trigger for me (in yogurt) and I ate way too much of it. The same holds true for 94% FF popcorn. I just used these foods as excuses to over snack last night.
Fortunately because of WPA"s and AP's I did not go off program.
See? Learning curve.
So I won't be buying these foods again for a while. They may have been fine in the past, but while I am relearning how to live my life as a single non-smoker that can't get out much....I thin I will pass.

It's great that you're learning what your triggers are. Yes WW is a very forgiving program. That's why I love it!

I firmly believe if a food is a trigger for you it should not be in the house. Maybe someday but not right now. I threw away a big huge bag of tortilla chips because they were calling to me several times a day and they basically have too much salt. I love salty things. But I threw them away. I am so glad that I did. I will not buy them again.
