BLT's

     I went to a Weight Watchers meeting on Monday and sat amongst a room full of people who had lost weight and who were diligent about writing down what they ate. I, on the other hand, thought a lot  about doing it but just couldn't execute. It all seemed too complicated last week.  The people who were successful claimed they wrote down all the BLT's (Bites, Licks and Tastes).  With a house full of kids those BLT's definitely get me into trouble.  So I took the time to write everything down the last two days.  Kind of boring, but here goes.  (Oh, and I get 25 Points)
