Sunday dinner is a big thing at my house. My room mate makes a big dinner and invites lots of people over.
Last night was "Soul Food Sunday". Fried chicken, greens, mac & cheese, cornbread and a salad. I started out great with about 1/2 cup mac & cheese, a huge salad, 1 small piece of cornbread and 1 piece of boneless skinless chicken that had been breaded and fried.
I ate my meal and was pleasantly full. I didn't want anything else.
About an hour later I went into the kitchen and everything still looked so good, I made myself another place with more mac & cheese, another piece of chicken and 2 pieces of cornbread.
I basically inhaled it and within 2 minutes of eating everything I had shooting pains in my stomach and major cramping. I haven't felt that way ever. I was on the couch doubled over in pain. I went to the bathroom and most of what I had eaten came back up.
It was just too much for my body and my smaller stomach to handle.
Before WW I could have eaten that and gone back for dessert.
I did track everything and before the chuffage, my dinner came to 38 points. After the chuffage I took back half of the weeklies that I had used (11 out of 22).
I definitely learned my lesson last night.

Kind of like your stomach was keeping you on track, but not in a pleasant way, right? That meal with the cornbread and the chicken and stuff sounds really good.
Everything in moderation...One cheat day is not bad!
That would be so hard. I guess your body knows better now what it wants and what it doesn't.
