It's the worst to stop eating something that used to bring you so much comfort. You're doing so great though, and that definitely counts for something! If you MUST go out for fast food, get the salads (no dressing, just use your own at home!). Subway is my go-to fast food, but when a drive thru is a must, I stick with salads and fruit. BK Apple Fries are deelish (nix the caramel!) and I like their Tendergrill salads (just had one for lunch!). Wendy's has delicious salads and fruit cups, and I like Taco Bell's fresco tacos. As you can see, I've had to watch what I'm eating at fast food quite a bit because my boyf and friends love fast food, and I don't want to feel like I'm missing out and just set myself up for failure. Try and pick the best that you can in those situations. Ten pounds isn't small potatoes! You're doing fabulous!
Oh I love Subway (= I usually don't crave fast food unless I'm hungry so I try to stay satisfied. That food makes you feel sluggish and nasty. I know about the fresco menu at Taco Bell. I actually hate it, I think it's gross. LOL. I would just rather not eat out. I kind of like better that way because at least I know and can control what I put in my food ya know?
I totally agree with you! I would just rather not eat out and avoid having to make the tough decisions and feeling like crap afterwards. I just need to keep my fridge stocked and all my veggies and fruit cut up and portioned. (I bought a food scale at a dollar store and stand by my words when I say it's the best dollar I have ever spent! lol) I think I might start cooking for the week on Sunday so I can never say "I don't have time to make anything," or "I'm too tired." lol0
