So today I conquered one of my biggest weight loss issue. Going out with friends.
I somehow inevitably go over my calories when I go out with my friends. Only today I had a perfectly planned day!
I went to work, I had brought with me a delicious lunch. I had a filling breakfast and planned my snacks to even include a little treat. I saved an apple for the end of the day and had a quick snack before hitting the gym. I did 40 minutes on the elliptical (3.25 miles and 400 burned calories) and even had time for a quick steam before I met up with a girlfriend for dinner.
We had tortilla soup and street tacos and went shopping at a great outdoor mall. It was a fantastic day/evening and the best part? I still came in 400 calories under for the day!!!
Here's to the little personal victories that remind you, you can lose weight and still enjoy the journey!
Thanks MFP Friends!!

That is wonderful...My funny one was when my son was out of control in a parking lot. I reached down to grab him and my glasses fell off my face and hit the ground. I could no longer be angry, LOL.0

You should feel really good about your accomplishment. Going out with friends can prove to be very difficult when you are watching what you eat. You did a gread job.0
