Free?? Say what!?!


I am super excited to go to my weight watchers meeting tonight.   They're going to be telling us about the Smarts Points with Freestyle Program.   Basically, from what I gather thus far, the list of free foods is even longer and includes chicken and fish!   I'm very curious to see how this goes and to see what the scale does.   I was in the hospital in September with lots of steroids and finally just got done with losing the weight I had gained thanks to all the steroids.  

So this is what I know thus far regarding free foods list...
