My latest NSV
This past weekend my mom called me. She and my dad were out shopping and had come across some killer deals and she was calling to find out what sizes I was in now. I proceeded to tell her size 10 pants and a medium shirt. Today she stopped by my work to drop off what they had bought me...a pair of shorts in a size 8, two…

Provino's Italian Restaurant
Hey everyone in and near Chattanooga and Atlanta---am going to Provino's tonight with friends for dinner and I can't find nutritional values online anywhere.

Should I take my scale on vacation?
Hello my name is Foamy and I am a scale *kitten*. There I said it. I'm one of those people who weighs every morning--usually 2 or 3 times every morning.

You earn points for various things and once you've accumulated so many points you can trade them in for prizes--one of them being $400 cash. [Thanks to MFP I cashed in the allotted number of points last week so now I have some extra…

Outback Steakhouse--Just Right with Some Rules!
My husband really wanted Outback tonight for supper and I figured, how hard can it be? My usual meal at Outback consisted of the chopped pecan salad with bleu cheese crumbles with Ranch dressing AND tangy tomato dressing on the side (my only attempt at eating well), 6 oz Outback Special, a loaded baked potato and some…

Can Anyone Verify Waffle House Nutrition Info?
Holy Cow Batman! Went to Waffle House for supper but didn't have a chance to check nutritional value beforehand. Thinking a waffle would be within my remaining allowances that's what I ordered. I chose the buttermilk waffle because the menu said it was "light". Well it was very light and fluffy. But when I got home and…
