I have never heard of the four pillars so...information is much appreciated- What part of the article speaks to you? Being reminded of the GHGs
- How does the program fit into your preferences and lifestyle? I am still working on this...counting points seems almost easier than Simply Filling but do like the simplicity Core/SF
This Week’s Routine: Wear an activity monitor all day, every day. don't have oneGHG of the Week: 1 or 2 servings of lean protein (a serving being 3 or 4 ounces, about the size of a deck of cards) Examples - meat, skinless poultry, fish, beans, soy products, and lentils.

- What part of the article speaks to you?
I like the part about focusing on the big picture. I'm never going to weigh and measure everything I put in my mouth; I don't think that's realistic, natural or healthy for me.
- How does the program fit into your preferences and lifestyle?
The GHGs are what I really like to focus on. I think that doing that is half of the battle. I don't follow PP (I always felt that it was too hard to fit into how I eat - the carbs were too low for me); I prefer Momentum, which I feel gives me more freedom and still keeps me paying attention to fat and calories.
This Week’s Routine: Wear an activity monitor all day, every day.
I do this anyway; I feel naked without my Fitbit.
GHG of the Week: 1 or 2 servings of lean protein (a serving being 3 or 4 ounces, about the size of a deck of cards) Examples - meat, skinless poultry, fish, beans, soy products, and lentils.
As a vegetarian, I try to have protein twice a day.
Meal of the Week: Snack
What are you having for snack?
I'm not a huge snacker during the day; I find that I get busy and it falls by the wayside. This week I am trying to have cheese sticks and fruit as my snacks. I had some almonds yesterday and I picked up some trail mix as well to take the edge off my hunger at the end of the day.

I was down .6 this past week & I stuck to my exercise challenge.
- What part of the article speaks to you? Definitely the GHGs.
- How does the program fit into your preferences and lifestyle? Focusing on the GHGs keeps me full & satisfied. However, I can still sneak in a sweet here & there & not blow my points.
-This Week’s Routine: Wear an activity monitor all day, every day.- Well, I used to wear a pedometer but the clip broke & I never replaced it. I exercised every day so that will have to suffice.
-GHG of the Week: 1 or 2 servings of lean protein - This week we had a variety including chicken, beans, lean beef & eggs.
-What are you having for snack? Snacks this week have been either grapes or raspberries. The zucchini chip recipe looks good.
