OK, here's the scoop. My husband loved the syrup idea and that's all I'm gonna say about that.

He did surprise me and wisked me away to dinner and a movie. I was very worried about eating out but I think I did pretty good. We went to Red Lobster because they are having that 30 shrimp deal. Never fear, I did not eat all 30 shrimp. I did eat about 17 though. I ordered all of my shrimp in scampi style.......... I love it that way.. ........but I'm sure all of that butter wasn't good for me. I had a salad with the low cal red vinigerette dressing and I order steamed broccoli instead of a potato.

I could not believe how quickly I felt full. Of course, I was eating like there was no tomorrow. I had to slow myself down a bit. I ate all of the salad, except the croutons. I barely touched the broccoli because I was feeling very full. The most amazing thing was......... I did not eat any of the cheddar garlic biscuits........not even a nibble.

We went and saw The Interpreter. I liked it, but I think they built it up to be a better movie than it was. (don't they always) Since it was my bday, I could have gotten popcorn for free, but we passed.

All in all I feel it was a successful night........

Glad you did so well on your BIRTHDAY! You LEFT food on your plate! I don't know about you, but that's something I need to work on! AND you passed up the biscuits? Yahoo! You go, girlie! That might be the toughest part for me with eating out. CARBS. They are just so delightfully carbolicious! Mmmm... I had to exercise soooo much restraint the other day at the grocery store. Fresh, HOT loaves of French bread were on racks in several places in the store, and the smell was killing me. I'm a big bread, pasta, potato eater. Miss those things! But you did a GREAT job of resisting! Congrats!

And hope you had fun with the syrups!

I agree-- anyone who can pass up a basket of those cheddar biscuits is a STRONG WOMAN!!!! You should be proud that you stuck to plan as well as you did, especially on your birthday. And passing up the popcorn, too! WAY TO GO!!!!
