Went to a gorgeous restaurant that did all my favorite foods such as bbq chicken, chips, cheese, ribs, burgers, pizza, ALCOHOL (i wasn't driving) BUT......they also had a "lighter options" on the menu and I ordered my starter and main from here and altogether it came to 600 calories (and a diet coke). I am so so so pleased with myself as I am a complete chip fiend (which my friends ate). I really don't know where my willpower came from!?

    Yay! Amazing how you rethink that stuff that's crappy for you once you start paying attention. Well done!

    i had a similar one yesterday when i sat in a restaurant and ate a salad, then watched both my dinner companions eat chocolate fudge cake and I didn't want any!! Woo hoo :)
  • That is so Awesome! I have no willpower when we are out.

    I eat it all. And then have cake.
