Tomorrow is my second weigh-in...wish me well. This has been a harder week than last. It was hard to stay on track fighting this cold. I am proud to tell you that I did practice very good self-restraint this week. Here are two examples.
First, we ordered Chinese food for dinner Sunday night. I am sure there are plenty of healthy items I could have ordered. Given my picky palate, I stuck with the orange chicken. Yes, I know deep friend. However, I ate approx 1/4 of the order and pitched the rest. I didn't want to be tempted. Upon further reflection I should have given it to one of the local homeless guys. That would have been a better choice. I will remember for next time.
Second example - tonight I had a meeting with a potential new client at Hot Chocolate. If you aren't familiar with the restaurant take a look - http://www.hotchocolatechicago.com/. I only had two glasses of water. It was tough. My potential client had some yummy pretzels and cheese and a small dessert and fancy drink. I just tried to remain focused on our meeting and drinking my water.
So, I am going to continue to celebrate those little victories that I wrote about way back when. Everyday is a new opportunity to make better choices and live a healthier, longer life.
