I have been doing Weight Watchers for a few weeks now. I get 34 points per day and if I wasn't breastfeeding, that would only be 22. The above nutritional info equals 57 points. Yes, that's nearly 3 whole days, if I wasn't breastfeeding... now, can you guess what this 'nutritional' info is for? A 'Plain Jane' baked potato at Jason's Deli. Yes, it's large, but it's a baked potato that has cheese, butter, bacon, green onions and sour cream on it. Wow... the other day, I was also looking up items at Chili's. The Awesome Blossom (deep fried onion) equalled 70 points. :O

Good news: I've lost about 6 lbs and have worn a couple pre-pregnancy items of clothing. I still have 3 lbs to go til I reach my pre-pregnancy weight. Then I still have about 20 lbs to go... :|

Uhm. But. I love butter. And Cheese. And Bacon. They are my 3 favorite food groups.

yeah, pinkie... me, too! But I can have a Wendy's baked potato with butter and sour cream for only 7 points. What did they do to that poor potato?!? :D

oh dang! The Brocolli(sp) Cheese Spud is the only thing I like at Jason's Deli. Hmmmm but it's still better than a taco salad!! :-)
