Okay, ....listen up (Mama Bette speaking now! LOL!).... You do NOT

crave that particular Fatburger. What you might be craving is a good ol'

burger... Go to In N Out and get a cheeseLESS hamburger with mustard and

ketchup

hold the mayo please for 6.5 points! AND if you save enough points you can

have an order of their wonderful fries for 9.5 points....both for less than half

what that fat-laden JITB burger would give you. Or...do what I often do. Get

that In N Out burger and come home and pop in 35 of Ore Ida's Fast Food Fries

for only 3 points. They're absolutely delicious and you will feel like

you've had a treat.

Now, having said all that I know that YOU know this already. You just have

to play a different mind-tape and tell yourself you crave something ELSE! You

can do it! Hang in there!

You could always buy a cheeseburger and just eat a bit and throw the

rest away. Wasteful but it'll cure the craving!

Heh. I know myself far to well to hope that a single bite will stop the

craving. Oy.

But since my wife's going out tonight with some friends, I believe that

I'll make myself an Ultimate Cheese Boca Burger. :-D

Heh. Thanks for the tip, Bette. That's good to know for the future.

But I've already got tonight's plan in mind: the Boca burger with the

cheese and all. It's only 5 points, which will leave some points for

dessert, too!

Perhaps some week when I've been really good and saved ALL of my Flex

points and worked out I'll have that JITB Ultimate Cheeseburger. With

fries.

Thanks, all, for talking me down.

The food I can't get out of my head!

It's one of the foods I used to eat just about every day. And now I can't

stop thinking about it. Ugh.

From Jack In The Box

Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger - 26.5 points

Jumbo French Fries - 9.5

That's a total of 36 points. And I used to eat it all the time. And now

I'm craving it. Ugh.

All right, I got my craving out. I fixed a Bacon Ultimate Cheese

Bocaburger:

2 slices Orowheat Light Wheat Bread: 1 point

2 Boca burger patties: 2 points

2 slices turkey bacon: 2 points

2 slices Kraft NF cheddar cheese: 1 point

1 slice Kraft LF mozarella cheese: 1 point

Mustard: 0 points

1/2 tsp BBQ sauce: 0 points

------------------------------------------------

Total: 7 points

Didn't taste quite the same, but it hit the spot. And MAN, it was

filling! Woof!

YOu know, with the mad cow scare, I'm not sure I trust any burgers from

Lyn,

You will never believe what I had for dinner on Thursday night.

I am not kidding.

I had a kangaroo burger.

No, not Jack in the Box.

A kangaroo burger.

There is an exotic meat place near us that sells exotic burgers.

Kangaroo is VERY low in fat and really quite delicious. It does bounce

I don't really eat the burgers anywhere any more. Not that they are the

only source of problems. Lysteria has been found in deli meats.

Unfortunately some legislation to require testing of facilities that

prepare deli " pre-sliced " meats and hot dogs was killed when Bush took

office. If I had really small children I don't know that I would feed

that to them without cooking it. What did they have to recall? It was

like 27,000,000 pounds of pre-sliced turkey and other deli meats a few

years back? Of course most of it had already been eaten. You just never

know!

I don't know if I could eat that! lol. DH suggested yesterday that

we get bison burgers at this bison farm by us. I just can't sit

eating a burger while it's ol' buddies are wandering around

outside. lol. But bison meat is very lean also.

[Guest guest]

I've had bison and it is delicious!

My Dad grew up on a farm and every summer we used to visit and we'd

always butcher either a pig or steer. We used to also grow our own

chickens and rabbits. I think when you grow up with the idea that

animals come in a few categories; pets, meat, wild, and barn cats; you

just have a different attitude towards it. I hate the way that our

animals are farmed by big corporations because I don't want to think of

ANY animal suffering. But a humane butchering has never bothered me.

HOWEVER, I do understand why it bothers other people.

Gosh I wish my keyboard would quit acting so wonky!
