I'm absolutely terrible sometimes about eating out. It's so hard for me not to cave in and have something just full of carbs that I know I'm not supposed to have, even if it's just a few bites. And I always feel guilty.
Today I went with my family to move my nephew into his college dorm ( I can't believe he's a college freshman already, but that's another story...
). As family members we were given tickets to have a free meal at our choice of several places on the campus and it flashed through my mind that I should "have something good... shouldn't waste a free meal".. LOL.
I had a chefs salad with ham, boiled egg, chopped tomato.... a little 2 oz. bag of cheddar cheese cubes... and a bottle of water. That's what I ate while everybody else was eating pizza and subs and hot chocolate chip cookies, and I was soooo proud of myself!
And on top of that I probably walked 5 miles on campus today! It probably sounds silly to a lot of people, but today was a huge success for me.

....bread is one of my total downfalls in life and something I have to avoid completely I am afraid...I dont ask for it to be taken away (unless I am eating alone) because there are usually others at the table that will eat enjoy it and not have a problem with it it ..but I do try to focus only on what I really love to eat and try to remind myself I can have whatever I really truely want off the menu!!!! We all can ...we can have wonderful food prepared for us and still loose and keep wt off!!! 
It would have been sooooo easy to order something good there. They have these great strawberry daquri's there. She ordered one one asked why I didn't want one. (we always order one there) I'd prefer that she doesn't know I am back on. As she always has to announce very loudly and sarcastically that I am on THAT Akins diet and I can't eat a THING. But I made it through and so did you Yeahhhh!
