Pizookie or Frozen Yogurt

I’m sitting here thinking about when, a couple of weeks ago, Matt and Sarah were visiting from Utah. Sarah took the time to help me make a decision.

We decided to go get a desert one evening. While deciding, I got to thinking about a place my friend Travis showed me years ago. They have the best desert, a Pizookie. This is basically a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie about 8 inches across with ice cream on top. It takes about 15 minutes to get as they bake the cookie after you order it. I made this offer to the family, to go get Pizookie’s. This is where Sarah comes into the decision.

I’ve been doing good going to the gym, and eating “better” than I used to. In fact, in the last 13 weeks, I’ve lost 21 pounds.

OK, back to my story. Sarah taught me about 2 websites (calorieking.com and theDailyPlate.com). Well, after discussing 887 calories, 426 calories from Fat, 104.5 Carbs, 47.3 Total Fat, 23 Saturated fats. I got talked into frozen yogurt. We actually have a decent frozen yogurt place nearby, and I enjoyed it. We had a good time, and didn’t eat all of the stuff listed above. I learned something else, the only thing better then eating a delicious freshly made chocolate chip cookie, is NOT eating a delicious freshly made chocolate chip cookie.

Thank you Sarah.
