Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. We celebrated with my wonderful husband by taking him out to Texas Roadhouse his favorite place to eat. I realized that every celebration usually takes place by going out to eat. I didn't want to have to say "sorry sweetie I know you have a right to go out to eat where ever you want but I can't control myself around all that wonderful bread". So I thought about my options I could 1.either go and totally blow it and eat whatever I wanted 2. Go and enjoy myself and make smart decisions dip into my extra points and just be smart. I chose to go with option 2. It worked, I was able to make smart decisions, cut my food in half and limit myself to the bread. I told myself only 2 pieces and I stuck to it. I enjoyed those 2 pieces immensely. I splurged a little more this last weekend that I normally would but I still am proud of myself. My husband had a wonderful Father's Day and that is really what it is all about.

Hi Trish,
If you haven't already, I highly recommend that you get the WW Member's Kit, which includes the Dining Out Companion and a more detailed points book. The DOC is great and I am using it to research the lower points foods at Chinese restaurants for when we go out to one to celebrate my oldest daughter's graduation. It really is a great resource as well as the A-Z Food Points book.
I am soo excited for you Trish. I just started weight watchers myself. I've lost about 12lbs. I admit the last wk I've been a bad girl but I've only gained one lb back. Keep up the good work. Try No Pudge Brownies for a sweet treat. They are only 1pt and sooo good. They are found a lot in the health food section cause they only have natural ingredient in them.
