‘muffins’

These low point banana muffins are still low in points as of 2023!  Back in the day, it wasn’t unusual for me eat a giant Otis Spunkmeyer banana nut muffin with a giant Dr. Pepper on my way to work.  In case anyone is counting WW points – that would be 18 points for just the muffin – and that was my “appetizer.”  I’d probably...

Friday’s lunch with my sister is worth mentioning.  Since I don’t blog on Saturday’s, and if you don’t follow me on Instagram or WW Connect, you would have seen that my sister and I have decided to make our #foodfunfriday healthy!  It used to be big ass burgers, eat all the fries, maybe even split a dessert, but with SO many options in the loop,...
