i ate out tonight for the first time in a while. i did pretty well! i didn't feel deprived and i was still able to enjoy tasty food. i ordered a dinner salad with all the toppings on the side (cheese, bacon, ranch) and i only used a small amount of the ranch dressing. sure is an easy way to save some calories! i gave the bacon and cheese to my bf for his soup, needless to say he was pretty happy. for dinner i ordered a side baked potato with all the toppings on the side again. i used a small amount of butter, 1/2 the sour cream and probably about 2 tablespoons of cheese. it was so tasty and i felt good about not just drowning the whole thing in butter. it came with such a huge ball of butter - i wouldnt ever use that much even if i wasn't counting calories. then my mom and i split grilled pesto halibut. it was a pretty small portion (1" x 3") but it was enough, it was super good, too. so all in all a good dinner out making healthy choices. the fries, chicken strips and fish n chips did look good but i wasn't too tempted and i know as time goes on i know i will be even less interested in it.
i also only drank water at dinner as compared to my usual diet coke. it is the one thing i don't add to my food journal. oops. i have a pretttttty bad habit of it and i know it's horrrrrible for me but i just love it. i have been seriously cutting back and it hasn't been too hard. i have been having one or two a day. sometimes i could easily drink 4+ per day. i know, it's so bad. i find that when i eat the healthy foods i dont want it as much as say, when i am chowing down on pizza or a burger and fries. well, eventually i want to not really ever have diet coke. but baby steps here... i know if i try to implement too many new changes at once it would be too much. i have been drinking lots of water, too so i dont have as much space for coke as i would a few weeks ago. i am trying to drink 64+ oz per day (2 nalgenes) or more and i have been doing that so yay me! yay!
