Pigging out at the salad bar

Nevada

I love a big salad bar, and always imagined there was immunity from weight gain, since it is all so healthy, right? A lot of customers there appearantly think so, too.

Now, in my fourth week of counting, I know better. I have been going to Souplantation once a week for my treat night. That is my time to get stuffed, but in a good way

And it is all a lot easier if I go with other calorie concious people.
