Today I ate at my best friend from high school’s house and they’re the kind of people that lived on deep fried chicken, real butter, and white bread sandwiches. As you can imagine, our lunch was costly in the point area. I only ate a 1/2 sandwich on white bread but I should not have put cheese on it, and maybe just a dot of mayo…. if any. [sigh] oh well… so my lunch alone KILLED my point count for the day. On top of that we come over to my inlaw’s house this evening and inspite of some self control, I managed to go over my point allotement once again. TOMORROW IS A NEW DAY and I will succeed. I”m starting with a nice workout and I’m hoping it will push me in the right direction for the next few days. It is so overwhelming when you are honest about how many calories are in each food item. Really mind boggling. If anyone who reads this doesn’t take the time to determine the caloric value of the foods they are eating (or the point value) I recomment sparkpeople.com as a resource for calculating points. It is EYE OPENING.
