Weight watchers for baby weight - update

It's my 4th week on Weight Watchers.  I've lost 10 pounds - a little faster than what's recommended for breastfeeding, but I feel great and my milk supply seems ok.  I am finally starting to be able to tolerate looking at myself in the mirror and in pictures.  And -- the real test -- I feel like I look fat in my pictures from a few weeks ago!  I still have about 10 pounds more to go before I can realistically try to fit into prepregnancy pants and 15 before my actual prepregnancy weight.  But I feel SO much better now.

A few comments about Weight Watchers:

• A friend told me the first week or two is easy because counting points is a novelty at first.  Then after that it becomes kind of annoying.  I've hit the annoying part at this point.  BUT... 
• It frigging works.  Tracking everything I eat and knowing it's going to become part of a balance sheet makes me less tempted to gorge myself on dessert every day, and even when I go over my points it's a considered decision and I'm sure I'm still eating far less than I otherwise would in that situation.  There has been Death by Chocolate ice cream staring me in the face the entire time, and I haven't been tempted to eat it.
• It has some screwed up incentives that I'm not sure I like, so I don't know that I really want to stay on it forever.  For example, 1/4 cup of almonds is 6 points.  A piece of Papa John's pizza is 7 points.  What am I going to pick there?  Hmmm....  Also, my brussels sprouts aren't quite as good without the gallon of oil I pour all over them.
• I remember when my dad was on WW, and he got really skinny from it - but I was kind of worried about him, he would eat nothing but baby carrots and one time he got dizzy and almost fell over.  I actively dislike baby carrots but they really are the perfect food for this diet - easy to eat, somewhat filling and zero points.  So, I am eating a lot of baby carrots.  But especially because I'm breastfeeding, I am trying to make sure I don't reach the point of getting dizzy and falling over.  
• Another friend told me it's really important to weigh/measure everything at home so that you can be better at estimating when out.  I'm sure she's right - and I did get a little scale - but I haven't really eaten enough measurable stuff at home to do this.  The diet works for me even if I use imperfect estimates - the point is that I try to be honest about what I'm eating and that act itself helps me eat well enough to lose weight.
• I get 40 daily points because I'm exclusively breastfeeding.  I think this whole thing would be extremely frustrating if I only got 26 points, which is what my friends who are at or near their goal weight get.  I can reasonably stay under 40 points in a day - I could not do 26.  

Here's hoping to get back into my jeans by May!
