Well, that's a little better. It does make it easier to have it all planned out for the whole day!
Just something I noticed on yours and Kenny's....if you eat 1 slice of the light bread (2 slices for 1 pt) you need to count the 1/2 pt. I know it is a pain, but I have noticed those 1/2 pts can made a difference over time with me.
Not trying to get on to you....just trying to help!

I'll check on that ... thanks. I swear I did the points calc for one slice as well as 2. But I'll go check again. And I it's LilMs' too! That will soooo upset her if she has to add that extra .5 pt! LOL
Gonna go check now .... will let you know what I find out.
Thanks for making me double check this ... sooo much to try to remember that I can't remember if I did this already!
*whew* again! LOL I dreaded telling LilMs that she's been getting .5 all along! LOL
Thanks again Shelly. I appreciate you checking up on us!!! It really does help! Don't stop!
Hey wait! Are you saying that even though the points calculator says it's no points, it'd be better on us to say it's .5? Or were you saying that because 2 slices is 1 pt, then 1 slice is .5??? HELP!
SHOOT! I can't even blame it on being blonde anymore!
Hmmm ... good question. I'd say no....but we might want to ask dear Coe on this one. See we are still learning.

I think when I was talking with her about this before, she figured it for me. So, I think we're good with the 0. But we can definately double check with her! Our WW guru!!! LOL
