After much deliberation yesterday, and an uncomfortable few hours with the EX, I was emotionally blackmailed into going to The Harvester. (Excellent tip for Ex's. . . If you want to spend time with the woman who dumped you, get the kids to invite her out for dinner with you). I pointed everything I ordered, which took me 22 points over my daily allowance. I'm not too worried about that as I don't weigh until Friday so I've reduced my points accordingly.
However, what really DOES pee me off is how crap the food was! Why is it that I remember The Harvester being the be all and end all? Is it the free bread rolls? Methinks so. .
My ribs were flavourless, the chips were greasy, the salad was brown, the corn on the cob was salty..ok, ok, The Rocky Horror WAS divine!! But, it so wasn't worth the points OR the emotional rollercoaster. I'm glad I've learned this lesson so early on actually. Never again will I crave my former favourite Eatery. And never again will I allow myself to be put in the position where I do something I don't want to do. If I'd stuck to my guns I would have been enjoying a Sunday Roast today, instead I'm having WW Tomato Soup.

I know what you mean about how the pubs and restaurants seem a bit crap since we have been on WW. Do you think it is because we analyse our food that we eat a lot more? Maybe BEFORE we would have just shoved it in our gobs and gone "yum" but now we think a lot more.
ReplyDeleteThe Rocky Horror I'm guessing was dessert, the emotional rollercoaster ain't fun though is it?
Glad to hear you have altered your points accordingly, that's what I end up doing normally too.
You need times like this to make you realise don't you. We all do it :O) xox
