Proud Of Myself
I passed the very first "test" of my new, healthier lifestyle. I went to a
family get-together at my father's home. These folks always put out a huge spread of food and plenty of beer. In the past I would always end up eating too much and feeling guilty about it. This time I planned ahead. I knew I would want to eat a few snacks and have a couple of beers, so I ate light yesterday and this morning. I had two Corona Lights and a small plate of spaghetti with a salad on the side. When I was finished eating, I threw the plate away and told myself I was finished. I was tempted to go back for more but I resisted and came away feeling quite proud of myself (and not weighed down by that overstuffed feeling). I had to endure a few rounds of "are you sure you had enough?" and "you can't be finished already!" but I ate a healthy amount and didn't feel deprived. When I came home I exercised as usual, although it felt a little more difficult (I attribute that to the beers and being tuckered out). All in all, it was a good day. -- PL (320/298/170) (First mini-goal: 299 Reached! 08/26/04) (Second mini-goal: 279) --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
