mini success

Hey Everyone

I just thought I would take a second to post. I am so proud right now of myself. I went to lunch at a chinese restaurant today with some co-workers and I was dreading it because I have been trying to eat Paleo and chinese food is just not healthy. Well, We got there, I ordered chicken and broccoli and some bbq pork (just 3 pieces) and then skipped my soup, fortune cookie, and rice! I sipped on water and just tried to focus on the conversation, This was the healthiest option they had...I compared it to a similar meal at panda express and it would be about 220 calories with the pork. I then had some cucumbers when I came back to give me a little more energy and black coffee.

I was so nervous but it seemed so easy! I planned ahead and called the restaurant to find out what their healthiest options were. I had a garlic and butter sauce on the them but just lightly. This is not bad according to the Paleo diet and I skipped soy sauce.

I haven't seen the scale move yet but I am only on my second week and I feel great, have slept better, have more energy, and feel like I see some difference in my body even though the scale isn't showing it yet.

Now, I get to leave work in about 45 minutes to go do a killer workout and I can't wait to tell my husband how I made it healthy...he eats out with his coworkers and is trying to find healthy options and now I can share it with him!

Just thought I would share!
