I’m struggling with being back on Weight Watchers after the holidays and a trip to Vegas. I was watching The Biggest Loser the other day and Bob was talking about Extra Fruit Sensations Gum. I figured that I would give it a shot.

I picked up a package of the “Sweet Watermelon” gum at the grocery store yesterday. I’m one of those people who tires of the flavor of gum easily and wants piece after piece. Needless to say, I was skeptical that sugarfree gum would keep me from eating.

Much to my surprise, it worked! I chewed and chewed that gum so long that I couldn’t even “taste test” as I was making dinner. I finally had to throw it away (and it still had flavor) after a couple of hours. Today when afternoon came and started wanting a snack, I just popped in a piece of the gum instead. I’m looking forward to trying some other flavors. If I can get through this first couple of weeks of counting points again, I will be back on track!
