Battling the bulge since 2010, and not stopping until I hit my goal. This blog documents my successes, my failures, and lessons learned along the way. Life is a journey, not a destination, after all.

Big Apple Bitch Slap
Someone in our office brought in bagels (instead of donuts) this morning, and I, like a fool, get up to have one. Now, I know better. Bagels from places like Panera, etc are going to be 4-5 points on Weight Watchers. And that's without cream cheese. So I eat one, then look it up... Big Apple Bagels don't seem too bad. 175 calories? 1 gram fat and a gram of fiber? SWEET. That's only 3 points! Then, I read the fine print... a serving size is half of a bagel. A HALF OF A BAGEL. Who in their right mind eats a half of a bagel (unless it's that you've already had an entire bagel and are going back for just a little more)?! I feel lied to. I feel betrayed. I feel.. dirty. That's 6 points down the drain....

Try a Bialy instead. Some Big Apple Bagels locations serve those. They are bagels, but they have no added sugar. A lot of people on Weight Watchers will choose those as an alternative.
