Portion Control & Thousand Island Dressing

January 14, 10:15 am: Post work-out I drove thru McDonalds for the Fruit & Yogurt Parfait (pronounced “par-fay”). I choose the smaller one, and only because it’s $1, but because it’s smaller and this year’s diet is going to be about portion control. Actually, all diets seem to revolve around the small-portions philosophy. An exception would be the all-you-can salad diet that I invented several years ago. I ate salad at every meal for week. I stopped after gaining nine pounds. I didn’t realize that my heaping of Thousand Island and Ranch dressings had so many calories. Who knew salad could be so fattening?
