Well this evening my family and I went to dinner at my favorite resturant. When we are there I ALWAYS order a moutiain dew and cheese balls for an appetizer. Well, as we were driving there I made my mind up ahead of time, NO MT DEW. Today marks 8 days without it and I didnt want to crush my hard work (yes, 8 days is hard work). So, I ordered a water and didnt order an appetizer. Then when I ordered my meal instead of ordering fries or onion rings like I usually do, I ordered steamed vegetables. It felt great and really proud of myself when I left. And I felt satisfied when I left, not so full I feel like I wanna puke. Small steps baby!

    Way to go! Good for you! This is a tricky skill. I find it very hard because my hubby and daughter almost aways oreder appetizers. Hubby is getting better about it. Baby steps will bet you there.
  • Good for u!!! :) u should feel so proud! :) it's hard to chose veggies over fries, at least it is for me :P fries & restaurant food are SO my weakness hahah well done!! I will learn from your example!! :)
  • Great job! It's so hard to order veggies instead of our regular 'comfort' foods.
