Italian food NSV!

I went out with a friend last night to celebrate her birthday and she wanted to go out to an Italian restaurant. I managed to not eat any of the bread put out on the table and ordered a salad (which tasted amazing!).

Keep in mind that I had made a cake earlier in the day and knew that I had already had some frosting and was planning on having more cake after dinner.

I don't think I have ever said no to a bread basket!

That's great! Italian food is not just about pizza and pasta and bread. You have so many extremely healthy and tasty options from salads to meats. Way to go!

I am having spaghetti for dinner tonight and buying some bagette bread which my husband tends to eat a lot more than I do. In my opinion, he can afford to gain weight. He is 6'2" and weighs 160.

Wow, that is awesome. I don't think I would be able to do it. I actually cancelled going out with a friend who wanted to go to an Italian Restaurant. I decided to wait a while because I know I'll eat something other than salad. I'm just not that strong. SO GOOD FOR YOU!!! :flowerforyou:
