A lot of us only do on-line. I had no idea what this poster was talking about--but now that I do, it's turned into an interesting post. I guess it's the old saying, "don't assume anything. "

The behavior part is the o ly part that made me realize you weren't talking about blt. So I had to read the comments to see what else it meant. And oops. I don't count mine I guess I should. (I've been doing it for about 3 weeks, if that) so glad I found out now!

your body tracks them even if you don't! A trip through Costco or Sam's can be a LOT of points if you sample all the goodies!

When you are cooking for a group of people you tend to taste the foods you are making to make sure they are seasoned properly, if I do it I count the points, so I usually just have hubby do the tasting!

I have a huge problem with this too but have committed to tracking everything now. Example: So when I come home with a bag of goldfish crackers I count out little 2 point bag fulls for an accurate snack pack. But I do eat some while I am packing them up so now I count out the first 2 points worth of goldfish and eat those while I'm packing up the rest. Then track that bag of 2points. I then put them in the cupboard with labels for points. I also eat an apple or other fruit while cooking but gum is also a good idea.

It depends on what it is and how much I consume of it. One needs to taste food while cooking it. But I try not to do more than is required. If I full on take a big bite or am consistently nibbling while cooking I take a guess at amount and track it.

If it really is just a BLT, count each as a point. If it’s more than be honest and measure and track.

Hahaha! Pretty sure you mean Bites, Licks and Tastes. No problem when fixing veggies or fruits, but with sweets it can really add up. I had a leader suggest to count one point per bite. Does cut down on the urge to BLT if you really do track it.

Today I had a turkey sandwich with lettuce & tomato and perhaps one slice of bacon (the kind without nitrates is one point per slice). Use just a little of lite mayo (or FF plain yogurt instead? ) and use two slices of a one point bread. You can have a BLT for 3-4 points.

Replace the bread with whole lettuce leaves, cut thick tomato slices, use just a smidge of mayo, and substitute turkey bacon for pork.
