The Weight-Loss Skill:
Using an unexpected weight loss as an opportunity to get refocused

The Challenge:
When the scale shows a loss even after we  have overindulged during the week, it can feel like a gift—and like permission to continue indulging. We may mistakenly come to believe that going off plan doesn’t matter—that we can “cheat” and still lose weight. It also can cause us to lose confidence in the Weight Watchers® program and what we know are helpful behaviors.
The Points Plus Solution:
In this meeting, we will be reminded of the multiple factors that influence our weekly weigh-ins and be encouraged to take a big-picture perspective. We will explore our recent efforts on the Program and  focus on the helpful behaviors that we know promote weight loss to avoid slipping into “I-got-away-with-going-off-plan” thinking.

The Weight-Loss Skill:

Managing a sweet tooth during Halloween and beyond

The Challenge:

Halloween is all about candy. Huge bags of it fill store shelves, and special bargains entice us to buy in bulk.   Some of us may use all sorts of excuses to buy and eat candy: “I’ll have just one,” “I deserve this,” “This candy is for the kids”—basically giving ourselves permission to overindulge.

The Points Plus Solution:

In this meeting, we will explore ways to manage sweets during the Halloween season and beyond.  We will share strategies, including how to control portions if we decide to indulge—or to avoid eating candy by keeping fruit and other sensible alternatives handy.

The Weight-Loss Skill:

Celebrating and learning from successes achieved during the Lose For Good® campaign

The Challenge:

It’s hard to believe that one person can truly make a difference—or that small weight losses, even .2 and .4 pounds, can add up to a meaningful amount.

The Points Plus Solution:

In this meeting, we will hear the story of how the Lose For Good® campaign was born and thus be reminded that one person can indeed make a difference.  We will share the successes we’ve achieved during the campaign and come to appreciate that even small changes—and small losses—can add up. We will also swap strategies for overcoming ongoing weight-loss obstacles, using lessons learned during the last few weeks to help us triumph.

The Weight-Loss Skill:

Managing your environment to avoid temptation and make following the Program easier

The Challenge:

It’s tough to choose weight-loss-friendly foods when your fridge and pantry are filled with not-so-healthy options. A banana, a yogurt, or string cheese might seem like a disappointment next to leftover coffee cake, cookies, or a bag of chips.

The Points Plus Solution:

In this meeting, we will explore ways to manage our environments.  By taking charge of the foods that surround us, we will gain control over those spaces and, subsequently, our eating. We will learn to recognize places where trigger foods are kept, remove anything that won’t promote a healthy lifestyle, and replace those with healthy items. Simply put, we will eat what’s there, so we should be sure what's there will promote weight-loss success.

The Weight-Loss Skill:

Using eTools for greater success on PointsPlus®

The Challenge:

Many of us have eTools access, but only a small number use it. We’re missing out on a resource that could boost weight-loss success—and for which we’ve already paid!

The Points Plus Solution:

We know there’s a link between eTools use and weight-loss success.  Recent research shows that in addition to being more satisfied with our weight loss, those of us who used eTools were also more satisfied with our first meeting, the printed materials, the plan’s focus on healthy eating, and the freedom and flexibility of the Program.
