So before I go any further, you have to understand something about my eating habits. I LOVE dipping sauces. I will not even begin my meal until I have the appropriate dipping sauces at my disposal...this, I believe, is often my downfall when it comes to dropping the pounds...
So I have been eating Chick-fil-A occasionally the past couple of weeks and just assumed that the Honey Roasted BBQ Sauce was low in points (silly me)...I kept telling myself I would look up the nutritional info on it, but kept forgetting. This sauce is absolutely delicious and not only have I been putting it on my chicken sandwich but dipping my fries in it (oh the SHAME!)....come to find out...
2 POINTS each packet! Which wouldn't be the end of the world, except one packet is no where near enough! I have been using 3 or 4, sometimes 5 of these (again, the SHAME!!!). That is an extra 10 points!!! It would be healthier to use only one light mayo packet for my sandwich and use only ketchup on my fries, which is what I will do from now on....but at least now I know why I did not drop any pounds this week. :( I maintained my weight and hope to lose between 0.5 and 2 lbs this week. I think my main problem is I have been calculating points in my head instead of writing down the exact # of points I'm consuming. Need to get more strict on not going over 20 points each day!
By the way, love the new background Scale Dodger!

OH I love dipping sauce... yummy! But it's the little that help cut down. Good for you, good luck as you head in for the "next" time!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to read the email, but I got one that was titled, "Are Condiments Making You Fat?" Oh, those Chick-Fil-A sauces!
