OK I cannot believe I did it.
I had a diet coke, a piece of grilled salmon and roasted asparagus..that's it!!
Holy Crap! Normally I would have had the bread with butter, a cocktail or wine or a Guiness..
Then something totally awesome for dinner and coffee...but nope I did it and I feel great!
WooHoo! I'm in the swing of it!

    If I know I'm going out to eat ahead of time, I usually post a topic or a status and ask for suggestions, and my awesome MFP friends always help me find a yummy low-cal choice. Good job on your good choices!

    I research my options online thoroughly if I'm going out to eat (if stats are available online)... I'll find a few options and choose when I get there. It's almost a compulsion.

    And way to go!!!

    That IS great!! Before you know it, it will be a habit for you and you won't even have to think about it.
