Dallas is no place for a diet! It's not that the food is so good that I couldn't help myself - it's that it was so bad there were no healthy food choices. I tried, I really tried. Breakfast was easy as that was either a bowl of fruit or a yogurt in my friend's refrigerator. But after that - there was nothing but a long line of fast food and casual dining chains to choose from. I tried a taco salad - but after you take away the cheese, sour cream, guacamole and chips - there wasn't anything left to eat. Dinner at the Italian restaurant with 10 friends was a parade of cheesy, garlicky, gooey appetizers. How do you count those points? Judging by the size of most of the people I saw on the street - they don't!
