One Pound of Cannoli Cream to Go, Please! said...

I love your description of tart sizes! Yes! Better to be really specific than so vague! Gives a realistic view, no?

Hey Choco-Lover!
I think you are doing very good on your diet. Should take some inspiration from you. Will introduce lots of fruits in my diet this week.

At least some one has been good with the diet over the weekend. Will think of you next time I am hogging down yummy coconut rice! :)

Dude, just 3 pieces of chips? HOW??

LoveMyTravel said...

LOR, hahaha, ya, I counted the chips..so that helped me eat them less..though was highly tempted to eat more!!
I didn't really have an evening out this weekend, so that actually assisted with my diet control- but doesn't mean I am going to do less of evening outs- just need to figure out which cocktails, drinks are best for our diet:)
