Happy belated Birthday Pat!!! Peanut M&Ms are one of MY weaknesses too...Growing up my kids only ever had the plain ones in the house...those i can walk right past - no problem...but i can NEVER the peanut kind.
Nice thing about WW to me - every day is a day to start over....you're working on a life style change, not a "diet".
Also - when i successfully did WW in the past i gave myself "No points days".....Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, my birthday - for that one day i don't count points - I need that one guilt free day every once in a while. And the next day it's back on program --- too much "depriving" makes you act nuts i think. Beside, i find i can't eat as much as i used to anyway.
