Double Double - Yummy!

So I have parent conference/open house night tonight at work.  I'll probably talk to about 5 parents and spend the rest of the time yapping with my colleagues.  I would much rather be home, but I guess I can't complain too much.  Except that I won't see my boys today and there haven't been very many days that I haven't seen them.  So it goes.

I live about 30 miles from work and had a meeting after school, so I ended up not going home after school.  I had to grab something to eat and I decided that a Double Double from In-n-Out sounded like a great idea.  And it was.  So were the fries.

This is one of the reasons that  really do like being on WW.  The meal cost me 29 points (for the ladies like my wife who get 26 points a day.. GASP!).  Guess what?  I still had 31 points left for the day.  I had the points and was able to enjoy an every once and a while treat.  It isn't the best choice but it was a damn tasty one.

Funny thing is, this is the second time I had fries this week.  On Monday night, I went out with my friends and the sandwich I ordered came with fries.  My buddy (Mister Deprive Myself) got a side salad instead of fries.  I may have had fries twice this week, but Monday night was the first time in weeks that I indulged in the crispy golden potatoes that were handed down from on high.  Mister Deprive Myself is on a self-imposed diet of sorts and pretty much said that he was "giving up" fries.  I told him there was no freaking way that I was giving up fries.  I just don't eat them all that often (except for this week).

I guess I just trust myself enough now that I know that a small order of fries from time to time isn't going to derail me.
