Texas Road House tonight--what should I get?
I can't find nutritional info on Texas Roadhouse. If someone knows where i can get it, that would be great. If not, any suggestions as what to get. I have a good bit of calories (1200) left for the day, but I don't want to go crazy. What do you all get there?

Does sugar matter?
I am always going over sugar. If I eat two or three pieces of fruit a day, I go over the allotted 33 that MFP recommends. Should I cut out a piece of fruit??

Mom of needy toddler!!
Anyone else mom or not find it hard to find time to exercise. I am a mother of a needy, very stubborn 20 month old. Yes, I give in to her all the time and no I am not willing to change that.
