National Wing Day Decision

Hello, I am new to dieting and all the myfitnesspal stuff. So far I have streaked four days. I was about to give up then I just allowed myself a cheat meal. I have been doing pretty good exercising and all. But today my brother wants to take me to Hooters for wing day ( unlimited wings ) but I know if I go I'll eat so many calories. So, should I just go and "ruin" all my work and start tommorow?

Dont do it.

If you are going to blow out your diet then at least go to a place that has good wings. Hooters wings are terrible. Wings are at least 100 cals/per so eat wisely if you do go...and make that your only meal of the day.

Or you could just eat a few instead of all you can eat. I love wings too. When I go to a wings place, I used to have three orders of my different favorite flavors. Now, I just get one order of five wings. Don't sell yourself short. Just eat a few and be pleased with yourself and happy that you got to eat a food you love in moderation.

^^^this..............and maybe get a side salad or munch the celery in between for a distraction.

I had no idea it was wing day! My Achilles tendon!!!
Anyway, I did just that on Sunday. I had been quite good (20 day streak) but I was hankerin' for wings, beer, & pizza. So I had them. Everything in moderation, right? I ended up 800 calories over for the day, but it was my first day over in the 20 so I didn't feel too bad.
Weight loss is about making new habits. Its the old ones that got you here. No one is a saint, and as long as you don't make "endless wings" a habit, I say live a little, but try to limit (like, decide on an END of the "endless") and FORCE yourself back on track tomorrow. No additional cheats until you have EARNED them. Try not to undo all you've worked for just over a treat.
Also, sometimes I have to turn down cake at a party because I have another party (or two) this weekend and I only allow myself ONE cheat -- mostly because no matter how many times I have cake, it is delicious, but it tastes the same as it did last time - - and that's the attitude I have to take. I am changing my relationship with food, one opportunity at a time.
Good luck!!!

It's national wing day?! I'm out! Time to look for the nearest Hooter's.... not in SF... it's CLOSED! /cry
