Went on a course yesterday which was catered - always a minefield for the WW member! I resisted the pastries on arrival, and the biscuits at mid morning. Felt very virtuous, so I'm having a halo for today's picture!
At lunch I had half a plate of veg and a spoonful of pasta bake. I pointed that as 5 setpoints for the pasta and 0.5 point for the tomato sauce. Only one penne quill had any cheese on it and there were 2 olives in the serving so I think that 5.5 points is safe given that the serving was small. I suppose the meanness of catering has it's bright side - only a tiny bit of cheese and 2 measly olives!!
There was a whole trolley of sticky desserts but I took an apple instead. It was a really tasty apple too so I was secretly pleased when my colleague who had treacle tart said it was not very nice. I think I got the better deal all round.
I have been thinking about my holiday at the end of August. I think I will read up on the Simply Filling plan and see if I can use that for eating on the boat. There is no way I can track points on an all-inclusive river cruise so SF might be my only chance of staying on track. I am not a big drinker anyway so I will stick to water and Diet Coke to drink. My husband is a coeliac so cannot eat gluten. Between the two of us I imagine that we will be a real pain to the chef! But then that is what they are paid for.
