I ended up eating out twice today - once for lunch with my husband since I worked a job close to his office, then again for dinner since I had to teach a class tonight and wasn’t going to be home during dinner time. I tried to pick “healthy” fast food options - not sure if that’s truly possible.
I know the points at Subway so I got my usual turkey on wheat. I usually choose my fats here; if I get mayo, I skip the cheese. If I get cheese then I leave off the mayo. Well, today the mayo was calling my name, but it was a bad choice because the girl put waaay too much on. I ended up scraping it off onto the paper. I do love that Subway offers baked Lays (haven’t tried their apples yet) and also sugar-free lemonade. I hate diet sodas, but love the diet lemonade.
I was on the run for dinner so I made my best guess at Taco Time, then checked points when I got home. The veggie burrito seemed like an OK choice to use my 8 pts for dinner on. It actually comes out at 10 points, so used 2 WP’s. After checking out Taco Time’s Website I can see that the chicken & black bean burrito is actually a point less so maybe I’ll try that next time.
Today was also WI day for me. I was down almost a pound (-0.9). wa-hoo! If I can keep that up I will be well on my way to my 10% before I go to Hawaii August 14. I was also wearing some Lane Bryant slacks today that I love. Only, they are getting a little baggy and actually did not look very good. It was bittersweet because I really like the pants and they aren’t very old, but hoping to fit into a size smaller soon!
