It seems to me just one more lock in and we have plenty of them in software industry: no need for one more.

The only way I found out working for me was to achieve a sort of "food awareness". You need to know how much each food adds to your "calories balance" and how much each physical activity subtracts from it. After that it's just a matter of keep the balance less than 0. Does this seem the Hacker's diet recipe? Right! but we are hackers! :-) Ok, ok, you also need enough willpower, but that's true for everything. Isn't it?

As in avoid foods that list "sugar" or "HFCS" as an ingredient. Whoa that was suddenly very healthy! One thing I’ve tried historically was to “cut out” sugar intake entirely.

I hope you can keep posting with your progress. Many people struggle and I'm sure your experience will inspire others to give it a try. I've learned the WW Points Plus system as well... I co-ordinate WW@Work sessions at the office, so even though I no longer need to lose weight, I still keep up with WW and other nutritional medical advances. The one thing you don't mention in your entry is that Points Plus also favours foods that are high in protein. I've read the book "The Hormone Diet" and found that eating an equal amount of protein and complex carbs is a good goal to strive for. Anyway, I look forward to seeing a slimmer and healthier you in the halls some day soon! Good Luck! I hope you can keep posting with your progress.

I'm also a fan oflow carb, and I want to add one thing most of the short time low carbers seem to forget: a good low carb diet will be heavy on vegetables too. You're nt supposed to eat only meat, even on outdated diets like theoriginal Atkins. Anyway, I understand your difficulties with the new WW system. I followed WW for a couple of years while the original points system was still on, and I have the same objections about the 0 point foods that you have. Why don't you stick with the old system though? You know the equation andyou can easily calculate your points and follow the plan yourself. Good luck with your weight loss and I hope you'll write some follow ups. I’m a dieter myself and I started to work out intensely 10 years ago.
