If you do DTG for a week, don't do the low carb. Do the low fat, and get a loaf of WW bread, or the flatbreads to use instead of their big rolls. Every 2 months or so, I plan on doing that, just to give my system a jolt.

Anytime I get a waffle or a cinnamon roll, I'm tickled because I love them. I'm with you...I don't fret about variety with the breakfasts. But I do love egg dishes (and blinzes), and I haven't had the blinzes or frittatas, so I'm looking forward to that. But the fact that you haven't had a cheesecake is just brutal. They are just stoopid good. It doesn't matter if it's plain, strawberry, etc.

This whole saga is mind boggling to me. After being on other programs, I was amazed at the intelligent, professional packaging that Bistro did (i.e. coolers instead of slabs of styrofoam, pizza boxes on top to hold dry goods, etc). Since I've quit getting snacks, my stuff has come in the shorter boxes (with no pizza boxes on top) but it's always been in great shape. You need to call them and tell them about the gotcha...if they're screwing up and don't know about it, they can't fix it.

I was cracking up reading this. I've had Great Danes for over 30 years, and have always trained them with the 'go potty' phrase. I can't tell you the number of times that it's been raining, and I've put them out, saying 'go potty' and they'd stand behind a tree (so that their head is behind it, but the other 36" is hanging out the other side) and then come running back like they'd gone to the bathroom. There are just some things that are too big to hide
. And it's not uncommon for me to wind up with one that is scared of thunder, and decides that it's safer to be under a coffee table or end table when there's a storm moving thru...and inevitably, they stand up afterwards... taking the coffee table or end table with them.
Anyhow, sorry you had a rough delivery, but glad that you're still enjoying the food!
