I ordered a single enchilada ala carte instead - half the calories and half the cost. I took ten corn chips out of the bowl and sent the rest back. It's about being aware of what you eat and making choices.

Yup, I don't count anything and I feel like I eat well. My wife and I still go out to nice dinners with friends, have some drinks, etc. If it doesn't come up in conversation, you'd never know that we were making a concerted effort to be smarter with food choices. You don't have to suffer to eat healthy.
