Going out to eat ahhhhh

I went for a walk with Miss Paige and we burned 98 calories this morning. I was still stressed about my car inspection but I didn't want to eat. I was actually to annoyed to. After I found out the price, I figured I couldn't afford to eat anyway. Over $600.00 grrrrr. Eating is an easy, good feeling that I don't  have to work at , and I get instant gratification at that moment.It also makes me look really fat too, and that sure isn't satisfying! I held myself together and prepared for an even bigger concern, going out to eat. It was my dad's 60th birthday party at Ruby Tuesday. I was preparing myself to not use my biggest loser food scale. I almost packed it but didn't feel like that would be "normal" to weigh my food in the restaurant. So I was a little wild, and crazy today and guessed the ounces on the steak that I had. Oh the excitement of breaking the rules once again lol.  The challenge here became when someone accidentally put salt on my son Christian's french fries. In my house we never add salt to anything . He wanted me to wipe it off. So now I'm holding these beautifully crisp golden pieces of sunshine in my hand, wiping salt off, like that's really gonna work. These fries were so close but so far away. They smelled so good and I really wanted to eat them, but I new I couldn't. Fries are my most favorite food in the world. If I had to choose one food to eat everyday of my life, they would be it. I moved on and waited for the waitress to ask me for my dessert order. I ordered black coffee, and was content with that. I was going to have a cupcake but thought that might start me down a path I wasn't ready to face yet. Although my eating plan wasn't followed I still remained within a comfortable compromise. I cant believe that I made it through a party and the weekend without totally losing control. For tonight I win! Tomorrow will be another day filled with food challenges to face , but I feel slightly stronger knowing that I can actually control my behavior :-)
