I invited my mother to accompany my family to the movie theater tonight. In turn, she invited us to eat at Taco Bell.

She knows I'm on weight loss journey! Why does she want to derail me by eating at Taco Bell tonight?!

I fear that she may be jealous of my weight loss journey. :cry:

    Well, just eat lots of beans at TB. Then when you pass gas at the movies, you can blame it on your mom.

    We mothers are such a trial aren't we?:wink:
    Maybe she was trying to treat you and doesn't understand how important it is to you to stay consistant with healthy eating. Did you offer an alternative? It really would be a challenge to find something good on the Taco Bell menu. Good luck.

    I believe people really don't think about the fact we are trying to loose weight. They just do what they always have done, or want to do. I don't think they are jealous, or trying to sabotage us in anyway.

    Yeah, before you have to gouge your eyes out...although that might lose you a pound, give or take.

    probably not intentional. everybody just eats that way. imagine how hard it was for those who quit smoking in 1965.

    eventually, you'll just jump on the website of wherever you're invited and discover they have fresca tacos that you can get two of without derailing yourself.

    although i admit that i do occasionally turn down food-based invitations.

    Eat before you go. Or bring in your own salad - I do this all the time with my family when they want to go somewhere dirty. They just know that's how I am now.

    Taco Bell has fresco style items which are only 150 calories per taco. And delicious.

    Everything else is pure evil, though. But there are healthy options.

    She hates you, that's the simple answer. She is clearly trying to kill you. Cut all ties with her and move as far away as possible.

    Just eat lots of beans and 'fake meat' and let it fly when you're all in the car together.

    They have some options on their menu that are not too bad if you make room for it. Look up what they have in the data base...I think a regular hard taco is 170 calories...lot of sodium though.

    I don't know why everyone is suggesting healthier options. It's not like she'll let you order what you want. She's out to get you, so clearly she will force you to order all of your food with extra cheese. Maybe you can fidget a lot during the movie to burn off some extra calories.

    I agree. Make sure you wear your HRM. And since you're so frightened by your mother's tactics, you may even burn some calories just by your elevated HR. I'm sure it'll all even out.

    Just DON'T GO if it's that much of an issue.
    "Hey, you guys have fun; I'll just see you later" and go.

    It's no biggie.
