Hi Brenda,
One night of nachos and a hot chocolate will not blow the whole week if you get back on track. Just
eat a little less the next day or do an extra day of exercise. I usually "allow" myself a once a
week splurge (it usually involves wine and a meal out), so I just factor it in the previous and
following days. For those unplanned treats, I make up for it the following day.
You need to eat something like 3,600 extra calories (someone please correct me if I'm wrong - I can
never remember this number) to gain a pound. I think your movie snack won't do you much harm. 🙂
I agree, Usual Suspects is an excellent film. If you ever watch the DVD version, watch the film with
the commentary switched on - it's hilarious and brilliant. If you like that sort of genre and
interesting plot twists, give Memento a watch.
Mmmm now I'm craving nachos and now I wish that we had baked Doritos/Tostitos in this country!!! (I
can use baked tortillas cut into triangles, but that just ain't the same).
Cheers, Petal
