Today's Topic: Thursdays can be an interesting day of the week. You're over hump day but not quite to the weekend yet.

Does this part of the week have anything to do with your eating habits for the week?

    I find that I can be "good" all week, but I often run out of steam by Thursday, and "allow" myself more snacking.

    It does, because Thursday evening is my weigh-in. I’m a bit more repetitive in my choices in order to eliminate any random variables at the scale.

    Friday and Saturday are the last two days of my WW week, so if I have weekly points to burn that’s when I use them. Then Sunday is a new WW week, and I’m more frugal.

    That sort of splurge and rebound isn’t necessarily what’s recommended, but it’s a pattern that works for me.

    Like Charlie, TOL and I weigh-in Wednesday AM, so breakfast (after meeting) through Sunday we are more lenient, then a vegetarian meal Monday, and a "careful" Tuesday.
    We both need to crank down the snacks all week.

    Friday am is my WI so I tend to behave on Thursday. If I splurge it's usually on the weekend. So Thursday is sort of a milestone part of the week for me.
