When I got into the drive thru, I could smell the fresh chicken strips and taste the sweet tea. I just had to.. Now mind you, I had 19 points left for the day and I might have gone over a little with my points. But it couldn't be that bad, right? I didn't bother looking up the point values for the chicken strips, or the fries, or the ketchup and I certainly didn't want to know what those two super cold glasses of sweet tea cost me. I cheated, even if I know I only cheated myself, it doesn't change the disappointed feeling I feel. Oh well, tomorrow is a new day and a chance to make better choices. After all, someone once said "You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there."

And the truth shall set you free...
Last Saturday I re enrolled in weight watchers. I had already vowed to get in shape this year by whatever means necessary and since I think WW is the best plan out there, WW it was. The week started off great, although I will admit that I didn't count at all Sat & Sunday. We went grocery shopping on Sunday afternoon and Sunday night I had Al grill up everything I needed for the week. It started off with a bang.. Then today happened.. It started off a normal day, I ate a great breakfast and an even greater lunch. I had a healthy snack and then I got the phone call. You know the one where my husband calls and says he will be working late. I just can't cook tonight was my first thought. I decided to run up the street to Bill Miller's(Famous for BBQ and chicken on a bone as Espen would call it) and get the kids chicken and I would eat the left over chicken chili I made yesterday(Super healthy & Delish). I will share the recipe in a bit.
