[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've lost 20 pounds on Freestyle.  Here is a typical day for me:

Breakfast - oatmeal and a scrambled egg.
Mid-morning snack - grapes and a boiled egg.
Lunch - Turkey sandwich + a big salad with lots of tofu
Early afternoon - Mini baby-bell cheese, carrots, and an apple
Late afternoon - Banana, a handful of turkey pepperoni, some fat-free plain yogurt.
Dinner - Pretty flexible, because I have lots of points left.  Generally, something chicken/fish/pork/or ground turkey-based (sometimes red meat) and a vegetable, and a small amount of carbs (one piece of bread, or a half cup of rice).
Late-night - if I'm still hungry, some deli turkey.  And if I have points left, some fat-free/sugar free chocolate pudding (only two points!) or Halo Top ice cream.

Basically, lots of fruits, veggies, and lean protein.  Avoid sugar.

OP, for me the keys are 1.  Eat frequently and avoid getting full-on starving.  2.  Find a breakfast that sticks with me so I don't really get hungry until 12:30 or so (protein helps here - turkey sausage or canadian bacon)  3.  Recognize and avoid my hunger/craving triggers.  Any sugar is a trigger for me, even the substitute ones, so I avoid things like diet coke.  Chocolate is a trigger, so I hold off on any chocolate (like the pudding or Halo Top) until almost bedtime.[/quote]

This is a lot what my Freestyle day looks like!  It really seems like I have a ton of points leftover for dinner on most nights, compared to the previous version.  I don't roll over my points, though.  [/quote]
