Again, the only limitation to me saying 100% is the fact I had to choose a different cut of meat (New York Strip at a restaurant - my first venture)then was on the list.
Restaurant was a learning experience, asking for dressing on side or none at all is a must. Ensuring how the veggies are cooked and what ones there are is another. I ended up with a perfect veggie side, the salad had a couple of items to pick out. Overall, while it was my family's favorite pasta joint with salad and bread - I was able to hold off without feeling too let down!
I focused hard on getting into heavy water consumption again - essentially too much - so I can try to decrease some of the hunger and maximize the low calorie intake.
1 month done - over halfway towards weight goal. I am disappointed with the rate of weight loss slow down, but I am seeing some results on my body. Definitely slowed down, as I expected somewhat, but I was hoping for 6-8 pounds per week. I suspect I will be below 200 in 5 weeks at this rate. I may see if I can start to exercise a bit soon, aerobic, and find a way to increase calorie intake to balance slightly.
