This is the first summer I tested my ability to stay on OWL and still have the freedom to enjoy some great dinners. I had a couple BBQ, and went to eat sushi one night. I have turned away from Chinese Food and burgers.
I limited my summer drinks to water with a little ice tea powder in it. No pop.
When I ate something sweet it was at the end of the day. I find that this limits the impact. I roasted marshmallows over the fire, had a piece of cake, had some pie - in moderation and not all on the same night. But, I didn't start to gain - as long as I ate them late in the evening.
Any time I do find myself losing control I return to fat secret and start calorie counting. It rarely takes more than a day or two to get back on track.
My current goal is to get under 145 before Thanks giving. This is the first time I've dieted since last spring.
