The scale has been kind to me for the last few
days!!!
Day 6- down .2 (yes only a slight loss but still a
loss!)
Day 7 - down .4
Day 8- down .6
Small loss but still a loss each day and I am good with it! It is
getting a little easier to just say no to the things I love, but I’m still no
easy task.Last night we went to one of my favorite restaurants on Kiawah, Cassique. They have the best bread
and butter and the best chocolate cake. It is always a treat to go there. Last
night I didn’t eat one piece of bread, not one! I didn’t feel the need to order
the cake, and I didn’t get the whipped potatoes that everyone at the table
normally loves. Instead I ate some steak and mushrooms with a few tomato
slices to start. It was refreshing to know that I can actually do this!
When I
got home I did want a taste of chocolate and opted for one small Hershey kiss,
I think that’s much better than a piece of chocolate cake.
I have also learned that I do better when
I plan ahead and pack a lunch or a snack. Today Todd and I had to make a quick
day trip to Bluffton, South Carolina. I knew this would be a weak spot for me,
I love checking out restaurants when I go out of town, but last night I made the
decision to pack a lunch for Todd and myself that way we could avoid trying to
eat out while down there. Little did I know the place we were visiting had bagels laying out! I will say, I had half of a half of a plain bagel, so really
two bites. I’ll be honest, I was partly hungry and partly really wanting a
bagel. I then slapped myself and got right back on track with a bottle of
water, 4 oz of Blazing buffalo lunch meat and 1 cucumber. Hoping to continue to be good..... one day at a time!
