Weight Watchers

I went to Weight Watchers once back in January this year, but I still found ways to still eat enough:

(For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Weight Watchers system, you basically get a 'points allowance' per day. I was allowed 32 points of food. As an example, a bottle of wine is 18 points. A pint of cider is 4 points. A slice of bread is 2 points. A tin of baked beans is 10 points! And so on.)

1. I didn't include alcohol in my points allowance.
2. Vegetables were 'free', but my plate of 'Roasted Vegetable Medley' still resembled a mini Mount Everest.
3. I took days off.
4. After midnight, points didn't count. It was dark. Nobody could see me.
5. Hangover days were not included, or days whenever I felt ill, or mentally fragile.
6. Our Asda shopping trolley consisted of fruit and vegetables, but we still got a takeaway when we got home.
7. Adding vegetables to dinner (including large Domino's pizzas) automatically made the points allowance invalid.
8. If I didn't use a plate/bowl for my food, calories didn't exist.
9. Also relevant if I ate while standing.
10. The Weight Watchers motto is "This time, decide to lose weight for the last time." - yeah, trust me, that was the last time...I'll embrace my rolls.
