It's starting. The dreaded Holiday Parties.
The first one is this weekend. It's a sit-down dinner at a Mediterranean restaurant. We ordered our meals ahead of time. I picked the vegetarian option.
1) I will not eat all day
2) I will allow myself 1 glass of wine
3) I will allow myself 1/2 piece of baklava
4) I will eat my entree slowly & stop before I am full
I feel panicked, slightly breathless just thinking about it. I'm not good at controlling my eating habits once I get started. It's a lesson I need to learn, though. This is a good opportunity to do that.
Chew slowly. Set down fork after every bite. Talk a lot. You can always take it home.
omg
So much stress over one dinner... I'm half inclined to bail, but I've already paid. I feel like I already made a good choice by not getting the lamb. So... I'm already ahead of the game?
It makes me extra super nervous to go out to dinner the day before a weigh-in.
I'm hoping for 185 on Monday, but I haven't been able to work out as much because of homework & I have a show tonight.
Think positive, weight-losing thoughts for me.

ReplyDeleteI was really flattered that you think of me as thinspo.., but you are even cooler because not only are you totally right, (its sucks having to to be an obsesseive dieter), but you are a mother as well. I look up to YOU, for that reason. No doubt you'll be the hottest momma around soon enough! =)
