where is the WW weekly thread?The only thing that worries me about doing PC is my weight. I don't go to WW so this would be helpful to me. I am just starting back with PC.
I love the deserts, I never eat at a show but I do try the recipe out at home first. :eek:
 
You don't give up carbs on Core - Certain carbs such as rice, pasta and potatoes are limited and you have to count points for bread.

Personally when I eat fruit I crave carbs less then I lose more weight

I have a WW Chocolate Smoothie almost everynight too Chocolate, Calcium and YUM!!

One thing a lady at one of my meetings a while back said she puts crest white strips in while cooking so she does not sample and then eat a meal on top of it. Others said they chew gum, or have toothpicks in their mouths while preparing food. I havn't tried any, but I will invest in the crest white strips and have beautiful white teeth while loosing weight!

That's a good idea! I will do that at home! While I'm cooking for the reception, I do want to be able to taste though, because I want to make sure everything tastes right, kwim?! I could put a piece of gum in my mouth after the first bite though!!!
Thanks for the tip!;)

Give it a try! Or wait till all is done and prepared and then taste and alter after it is all made if that is something you could do. If you cook like me thought I understand having to taste, thats how I cook also.
Good luck!
