Thought for the day:

Another week down and only .4 pounds lost at weigh in. Guess I need to get down to the real Nitty Gritty and examine my game plan.
I used very few Flex points last week as a matter of fact I still had 30 of them left when the week ended. I just was not that hungry. With the hot weather I was just wanting to drink water.
Zumba is still going good. I probably look like a fool doing it but I have no trouble sleeping after a class. The instructor is adding a class on Saturdays so I'll soon Zumba 3 days a week. Who would have thought I'd like any exercise enough to go 3 times a week! Guess I'm not as allergic as I thought.
I have been absolutely craving KFC coleslaw, but at 4 points per 1/2 cup I am also reluctant to indulge and 1/2 cup is never enough when it comes to the Colonel's coleslaw. After several tries at knocking the fat out of that creamy slaw I finally have come up with a greatly reduced fat version, the servings are a generous 3/4 cup each and I am no longer Jonesin for the Colonel.
Fat Momma's Creamy Cole Slaw
4 tablespoons Hellman's lite mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Hendrickson's Original Sweet Vinegar and Olive Oil salad dressing
1 teaspoon Dijonnaise
1/8 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon Splenda
1/2 teaspoon water
3 cups of packaged 3 color coleslaw
Whisk together the first 6 ingredients and toss with the coleslaw.
Makes 4 servings at 1 Weight Watchers point each.
