I am still working on losing weight. About fifty pounds since sometime last fall. The only "rules" are eating less of everything and eating one cookie instead of five! I have always had a "sweet tooth" and while I was growing up dessert was always part of the meal. To force me to eat something I didn't like (liver comes to mind) mom would threaten to withhold dessert. Usually worked! Here are some pictures I have taken of delicious offerings at many different restaurants.
A sample plate at Summit House in Fullerton. Four diners, I took the creme brulee.
An unusual offering at a casual lunch spot. They were all perfect, just missing a glass of milk.
Now I have made myself hungry. Guess I'll have a few chocolate chips to take the sweet tooth edge off.

Good job on the weight loss! Those desserts ARE tempting. When my sister and I were small, we’d say that we didn’t have any more room for the main part of dinner. Our mother would say, “Then you don’t have room for dessert.” And our response was that we had more than one room in our tummies; the main room was full, but the dessert room was empty! Dottie
Wow, congrats on the weight loss! I have a major sweet tooth, which is the reason I haven't been able to lose the weight that I need to lose. Like you, I grew up with desserts being standard.
