My, bonus points go quick, don’t they?

Spent the evening catching up with old friends and going to see the revival of Hair on Broadway. And of the 24 points I had remaining, all of them went toward beer. Which left my bonus points to pick up my dinner–chicken pot pie with some aps. I’m calling it 20 points.

15 bonus points left this week.

Been a few days…

… but I think I’m on track. Dinner Saturday night was a low-point affair (delicious grilled pork and veggies!), which I rounded off with beer and corn chips and salsa & quacamole. Then dug into the points a bit with another beer and some ice cream. I estimate 10 bonus points, leaving me with 22.

Yesterday on my way to the writer’s conference, I had a bacon egg & cheese bagel, and some cream and sugar in my coffee. Then I had some KFC wings and mashed potatoes, and one more buscuit than I should have had. Then for dinner, I had some naan and leftover steak, followed up by a can of birch beer and some rum. I never had a good handle on how many points I ate, but I doubt it covered the whole 55 I had left (including bonus points). Nonetheless, I’m going to pretend they’re all gone for the remainder of the week.

For breakfast, I had some cheerios and milk. 5 points. 28 left today.

Had a great time at Sharon’s 40th at Monmouth park. Even won a little (very little) money (I came out $3 ahead). But counting points? Not so good.

There were soft pretzels and fried chicken and beer and coleslaw and wraps and cupcakes and cookies and tequila with peppers in it and a vodka-infused watermelon. And some stuff I didn’t try.

Now, I had 32 points left in the day I’d started things off with a banana), and another 31 bonus points for the week. So if I need to tonight, I’ll eat something light for a dinnersnack. And then I’ll call those bonus points a wash.

But it was a helluva good day. Happy birthday, Sharon.

Dinner.

Big dinner  tonight… but not big points. I had 8 points worth of chicken (I’m being generous there), along with some grilled veggies and salad with homemade croutons, which I’m giving 3 points to total since the dressing was pretty light. So that’s 11 points of my remaining 17.

With 6 points left, I poured myself a beer (Young’s Chocolate Stout) and had some strawberries.

There’s a party tomorrow, and I’ve got 31 bonus points to play with.

‘Night.

Big Dinner at Jose Tejas

So, we headed out to Jose Tajas for dinner tonight. I had 17 points left, and used them on a light beer, some chips and salsa, and a handful of aps — none of which were good for me, but all of which I held back on. Then my order of seafood enchiladas came, with a side of jambalaya… I ate the jambalaya and one of the two enchiladas (and am calling that 14 points). So, I’ve got three more bonus points for tomorrow and Wednesday. Will I make it?
