Signing up for support

My job is offering a deal on WeightWatchers PointsPlus, for a reasonably low amount I get to enjoy the program for 12 weeks. We had the informational meeting this morning and I signed up for it. I'm nervous, excited, second-guessing myself and antsy to get started all at once. Start date is January 19th.

I will be allowed to consume 29 "points" per day, I will learn more about this points program and how it works once the sessions start but from what I gathered today it seems that calories aren't calculated into it, only proteins, carbs, fats and fibers. There's a calculator I can get to help convert foods to points but -of course- there's an app for that!

I felt self-conscious when I looked at the spokesperson's Dining Out booklet and saw that my occasional breakfast alone is about 20 points. Oops "/. Also, she said for my height the highest weight recommended is 138lbs (big oops) and the lowest 108lbs. They'll give me a goal weight once we get started.

I'll try anything, to put it bluntly. This seems like a not-so-drastic step to take, maybe I'll learn a thing or two and hell, maybe I'll even shed a pound or two as well! I can't wait to get started!
