TFL OF THE WEEK

When you use the Motivating Strategy, you experience in your imagination all the benefits you’ll enjoy once you’ve achieved your Winning Outcome. Use this Tool for Living when you need to inspire yourself to do what it takes to reach your goal.

  • Imagine yourself having already achieved your Winning Outcome and enjoying some of the benefits. What are you seeing, hearing, doing, wearing, etc.?
  • Get in touch with the good feelings that come from having achieved your outcome.
  • Keep in touch with those good feelings as you practice the behaviors you know will help you move closer to your weight goal (such as Asserting yourself, Taking Care of Yourself, planning tomorrow’s meal, refusing a second portion, eating fruits and vegetables, taking a walk, etc.).

OATMEAL: NOT JUST FOR THE BREAKFAST BOWL
Weight Watchers Maple Brown Sugar or Strawberries and Cream oatmeal cups are convenient, delicious and Core. They also can make more than just a bowl of oatmeal, which is tough to eat on the go!

Mini Breakfast Cookies (2 POINTS): Mix ½ teaspoon baking powder in one cup; stir in ¼ to 1/3 cup water. Let the mixture sit to absorb the liquid. Use non-stick spray on a cookie sheet. Spoon 4 mini-cookies onto the pan and bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes until firm.

Pancakes (3 POINTS): Mix ½ teaspoon baking powder in one cup; stir in ¼ egg substitute (or 3 egg whites). Let the mixture sit to absorb the liquid. The batter will make 2 pancakes. Cook in a nonstick pan over medium heat. They’re sweet enough not to need any syrup!

Peach Cobbler (3 POINTS): Add one large, undrained can of peaches packed in Splenda to an 8x8” pan. Sprinkle the contents of the oatmeal cup on top. Spritz topping with 4 “butter sprays” and then bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
