I survived eating out..
Posted by Lois Anne on January 6th, 2008
We’re doing some redecorating in our kitchen, so we ate out for lunch and dinner yesterday. Needless to say I had no problem using up all my points (plus 3.5 activity points an 7 flex points)! It just goes to show you can be full and satisfied on less calories when you choose low fat, high fiber foods. I also noticed (after about a week of eating healthy) that I have more energy. Yesterday when I swam, I finished my 30 minutes and felt like I could keep going. But I didn’t really have time, so I stopped. But this morning I did an extra 5 minutes and still felt like I could keep going. I guess vegetable make better fuel than chocolate! 
Of course, when Aunt Flo comes around I’m sure I’ll be hitting the chocolate pretty hard again. For now I want to do the best I can, and write down what’s working for me and how good I feel so I can remind myself when it’s time to recover her visit.
