WEEKENDS........

I am finding that weekends are a struggle. Not that I eat in excess, but rather that I don't always choose to eat the best items.

Read on......

Friday night I splurged.....I had a CHILD size Shamrock shake @ McDonald's.

This little critter holds a WHOPPING 9 POINTS. That is terrible. And let me tell you, my taste buds were not quite as happy with that shake as I thought they might be~ Now lets look at this in reality. I can eat that shake for 9 points.....OR....I can have the following

Grilled Chicken Breast (3)/ Side Salad(0) / Parfait (3) / Honey Mustard (1) (for the salad) / Hot Mustard (1) (for the chicken)

8 points

Now tell me.....why would I do that to myself? That's a lot of food for only 8 points vs. 1 thing to taste for 9. Slowly I learn.
