Just a small success I had. At work they are ordering me lunch today from a sandwich shop. instead of getting a bufalo chicken sandwich or anything fried..i went with a veggie wrap. Didnt even have to think about it really. a few months ago...i would not have made and been happy with this decision.

    This is awesome thinking on your part I just went through a similar thing since I am following the "no meat on Fridays" during lent I would get a tuna sandwich from Subway for lunch then I saw it was about 500 calories! Now I order a 6" Veggie without hesitation (about 250 calories).

    Good job! This weekend I went to Jack in the Box with my family. I fully intended to order a sourdough burger. When I actually placed my order I ended up saying "chicken fajita pita" instead. Kind of surprised myself because up to the point where I ordered the pita, I really planned on getting the burger.

    Oh Great job! I went to a restaurant and I had enough calories that day to really get anything but I chose a grilled chicken wrap with feta cheese, lettuce, and hummus with tomatoes...NEVER EVER WOULD I HAVE NORMALLY ORDERED IT! But I got it and felt full before I finished it! I still had many calories left and was so happy! You keep it going girl!

    I'm not so sure that you should count that as a "small" success. It sounds like a fairly big one to me. Nice job!
