I have been reading this book "Dr. Phil's ultimate weight solution" and it is excellent. It really helps you look at why do you eat how, what, when, where you eat and how to combat and reprogram yourself to eat better, think more clearly and devote energy into taking care of yourself.
You can get it for 1 penny on amazon and pay $3.99 shipping.

Walden Farms
OK, so a while back I posted that I saw in the WW book that Walden Farms peanut spread was 0 points and decided that I must have it. I tracked it down at my local health food store. When I arrived I found a whole end-cap of Walden foods. They are all 0 points. You wouldn't believe it if you saw their nutritional labels. They are 0 everything. 0 calories, 0 fat, 0 carbs, 0 fiber, 0 protein, 0 sugar. Nada. Zilch, Zip. Zero. So weird. Anyway, I decided to try some of their products. They run about $5 per jar.
Walden Farms Peanut Spread. Does not taste like peanut butter. Really gross. I will not purchase again. I will not eat again. I am going to throw the jar out. Yuck.
Walden Farms Alfredo. Edible, but not good. It was 0 PP (because it's 0 everything as listed above). I will not purchase again. But I did finish my dinner that it was on. I would not recommend it.
Walden Farms Raspberry Jam. Tastes like other SF jams. Not terrible but not good. I will probably finish off the jar and then not purchase again (I might as well buy other SF jams from the grocery store and not make a special trip to the health foods store). Definitely not as good as regular jam (no SF jams are). But OK if you need something a little sweet and don't have the points to spare.
Walden Farms Hickory Smoke BBQ sauce. OK, not great. It was really runny. It had a slightly strange flavor. It was edible. I will probably finish off the bottle, but not purchase again. It's nice to have a 0 point BBQ sauce, but I think I would rather use a point or 2 on regular BBQ sauce. I would not recommend buying it.
Walden Farms Ranch Mayo. Tastes like FF mayo with a dry ranch packet mixed in. I am not a big fan of FF mayo or miracle whip. I would rather use a point or 2 on light mayo/miracle whip. FF is gross to me. So I didn't care for this too much. It was OK, not gross, but not great. I will finish off the jar and not buy it again.
I have not tried this yet, but if it is anything like the other products...I'm not expecting anything great.
So once again we're back to the old adage of "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".
