I love Taco Bell. Always have. Always will.
I would have bet that XXL in the title of a menu item would have automatically prompted a high-level avoidance response. The picture was well, pretty, attractive, inviting, tantalizing, delicious. I order the XXL Grilled Stuffed Burrito - Chicken. I almost dropped the bag when the server handed it to me. It was that heavy. I enjoyed it. I'm just not sure it was worth the 22 PointsPlus values. It could have been worse. Funny how that always makes me feel better. Acknowledging restraint as a badge of honor. Good for me.

I originally wrote this as a post on my weightwatchers.com eTools blog in June. I guess one every 6 months isn't bad. I just wish it hadn't been the day before THANKSGIVING!

Honor to the workers. Honor to the workers looking for the work.

The last official holiday of the Summer Season. Bar-B-Que! Problem? It doesn't have to be. Management is key even if it's a craving brought on by a special occasion such as a holiday. For tips check out this article on WeightWatchers.com.

You can get "hungry" at a Weight Watchers meeting. Well, it is a half an hour and we all know you haven't eaten anything for six hours now. If you happen to be near a center location there are more available. Travelers, like Hyde Park and Lawrenceburg, only have five of each style until possibly later this month. Oh, didn't I mention there is a four-inch furry magnet you can stick to places!

So, I was sick yesterday. I am better, thanks! I'm attributing my quick recovery to my flu shot. It was definitely flu as I had a fever and sore joints--generally miserable. I was down for the count. My appetite wasn't. Anyone else want to eat when you are ill? I have no Points Allowance Points left for the week and the week started yesterday. I think this will be more of a challenge than Thanksgiving was! I started a "new" 3-month Journal last week that will help.
