Not a bad day, all things considered.  Jack (my 18 mo) got his fingers smashed in the sliding glass door just before lunch.  Emma (the 5 yo) needed to be at a birthday party.  It was burritos for lunch so all the kids were standing in the kitchen telling me what they wanted on their burrito.  I didn't eat spoonfuls of cheese to cope, though I was really guzzling my diet Coke.
Then we went to friends' for pizza.  The fellow WW friend had a sick friend so plans changed.  I did well staying out of the pizza, but I did get a little crazy with the chips and dip.  I could tell I was really low on points after I had eaten my salad and sliver of pizza.  Isn't that weird how we "know" where we are kind of?  I was really thinking I could have a nice little dessert later at home.  Then I had a chip.  And another.  And a lot.  Oh, well.  Did pretty well today all things considered.
And this nonfat yogurt parfait thing is turning into my favorite breakfast.  It really fills me up.  And I never thought I could do plain nonfat yogurt.  But since 1 cup is only 2 points, I thought I'd try it.  Love it!  Jack's fingers are fine, BTW!

Good job on staying out of the pizza....pizza is a killer fo me, I just can't stay away. Chips are hard too.
I'm going to try to yogurt parfait...it looks yummy!
Keep up the great work!!
Seems like you're able to eat a lot of different things at throughout the day and still keep the points in check. I eat one meal and I end up having to use my weekly points!
ps thanks for your "motherly" advice.
