I can't stand it, I've been cooking all day for a large party tomorrow, and I have the munchies so bad. My husband will come in soon laden with chips, and other goodies for tomorrow, and here I am trying really really hard to be satisfied with a carrot :noway: waiting for my glass of wine, which I can't have until dinner.

    Well my husband knows I'm trying hard to lose weight and what does he buy me for Mother's Day...my favorite kind of chocolate. Yeah the economy size. So needless to say I had a bad night when I raid the bag last night.

    But today is a new day and right now is a new day for you. So put down those tempting items and grab that carrot and munch the hell outta it. That carrot is what will bring you success!!!!!

    Oh, wouldn't that be the best fun???!!!!

    My 2nd son is "graduating" from my homeschool (I know that sounds weird to some out there, but being in a Navy family it fit us really well), and we're having a big turning 18, manhood, leaving us to go to college party!

    The menu is.... tada

    Artichoke dip with tortilla chips
    Fresh Salsa

    Sadlers Smoked Beef Brisket (Sams)
    Red Potato Salad (homemade by request)
    3 Bean Barbequed Beans with Sausage and Bacon (a cholesterolic killer)
    Coleslaw

    Yeast Rolls
    And a big old Chocolate cake from Sams (yea, it's not white with buttercream frosting, I can do this)

    OMG...I'm cooking for a dinner party tomorrow night...I'm in the same boat!

    Why don't y'all stop by with your doggie bags after you hit up Beep's place..? That will save me from eating all my leftovers!!

    My menu:

    Roasted shrimp with thousand island dressing
    Melon and prosciutto
    Summer salad
    Orzo with roasted veggies
    Lemon cake with whipped frosting
    Mint juleps

    I know how you feel. I did fine yesterday and wasn't over on my calories, but when I was looking over the nutrition information I realized that I was over in the fat column. When I looked over my daily intake, I realized I woudn't have gone over if I just hadn't eaten those barbecue chips! Dang those chips! Salty snacks are my downfall!

    I'm finding there are two things that I cannot pass up: the cake, and the potato chips.

    But I'm also finding good ways of avoiding them. Having a bunch of teens in the house who are all beanpoles, I have to have snacks onboard. So, i try to get snacks that I don't like. I really do not like pretzles, but my kids do. I also can eat one tortilla chip and be satisfied, so we usually have plenty of those onhand. But if there were potato chips in there, I would be sneaking in the pantry all day. So, we don't get those very often and when we do, I make my 5 kids empty the bag (which is not difficult.)
