Everything looks good. You had a good night and stayed in a good point range. I think we are trying the “ham, sweet potato and peas” dinner this week. I have had a ham in my freezer for about a month now. The pumpkin oatmeal looks really good…

Roni -
Just wondering, as a lifetime WW member who is maintaining what is your point range?
I’m not there yet and you probably work out A LOT more than I do but I was just curious.

Rachel – I generally try to stay between 25 and 30. If I wanted to lose my points would be 20. But in maintenance what I learned is it’s not so much about the points as the balance. I may have a 40 point day and then cut back to 20 the next. Honestly, I don’t pay much attention to them anymore, it’s more of a post analysis. Like… “Huh.. I ate 27 points today, that’s cool” I don’t really do the preplanning like I did when I was losing.
Just like everything it’s a progression.
Hope that helps!!

any recipe for cookies like this in the works? a spinning instructor at my gym makes her own and sells them, and they are awesome, way better than packaged ones, but expensive ($4 per cookie, but they’re BIG). i’ve tried a few different recipes on my own, but can’t find one i like. i tried hungrygirl’s breakfast cookie, and liked it, but found it a bit “rubbery,” for lack of a better word.

okay, the last comment asking about a recipe was about the kashi cookies… didn’t make that clear!

danesaI – actually got it! LOL and I’m working on one. I had the same idea last night while I was eating it!

Awesome! The one my instructor sells tastes like it has peanut butter, oats, small choc chips, maybe dried cranberries, and i know she said she always uses kashi cereal in them, and experiments with different kinds. It has the consistency of a no-bake cookie almost. Good luck! Looking forward to seeing/eating it!

I am so happy your taking some me time, balance is the key….. You and I discussed this in person and it made me open my eyes at how easy it is to go in a direction that isn’t balanced. Keep up the awesome work Roni you have NO idea the impact you have on so many people including me…. I can’t wait till you make it to Toronto again, so you can come to my Cardio Core Bootcamp class
Stay strong,
Christine :o)

Oh I am excited for the Kashi cookie recipe!!! Has anyone tried the Quaker oatmeal cookies? I really like those. They are big, thick, and filling.
