Spaggetti -V-Spaggetti Squash

My daughter-in-law just called me! She wanted us to come over tonight for dinner! It is going to be spaggetti again as usual. This never use to be a problem before I began my weight loss journey, because I love pasta! I am going to cook up some spaggetti squash to take with me. It is a great alternitive to spaggetti. I am the only one here who eats it, but maybe my son and grandkids will give it a try! There is a big difference in calories spaggetti squash has 23 calories in a 1/2 cup and only 5 carbs. Reg. spaggetti has 197 calories and 40 carbs in 1 cup! Whole wheat spaggetti has 174 calories and 37  carbs in 1  cup. The texture is different, but I love it! I recommend you hit the farmers stands and buy some and give it a try!!

I have been back on track since Monday and I am not going to mess up things now!

I hope everyone is having a good week!
