I typically don't eat fried foods even on a weekly basis, but when I do, I really haven't had any problems with them. Alcohol on the other hand is something that is just no longer worth it for me. I'm feeling pretty comfortable with my diet these days. I know if I eat too many chocolate chip cookies I'll be paying for it! But sometimes it's worth it! What can I say?!
