Does anybody find themselves considering going over on calories simply for the social aspect of eating out? I was invited to Olive Garden for lunch today. Mmmmmm. Breadsticks. I would really like to go just to see people and get away from the office for a while. But, I looked up the nutrition information online and cannot put myself in that environment. I knew it was going to be bad. But one breadstick (and let's be honest, when have I ever eaten just one?) and one serving of salad is 500 calories. And I wouldn't be full from that. So, I declined and will sit at my desk and eat my black bean, chicken and quinoa salad that I brought for lunch. I miss going out! But going out has always involved bad food and a lot of drinking! And I just can't do it anymore.
Enough complaining. Time for some bragging! I am now on day 10 of my drive-thru boycott. I certainly don't miss the food at all! But there are nights where I miss the convenience. I have eaten out a few times this month but always for a social situation and I've usually been able to plan for it and not go too far over on calories. I've had some kind of a deficit every day. Now if I could just see those pounds drop! I'm sore and my jeans are fitting tighter in the thighs so I'm sure my muscles are holding onto water right now. But just because I know that, doesn't really make it any less frustrating. I just need to keep at it, my body will respond at some point.

Everybody I have to talk to is eating a cookie! There are cookies everywhere! I love cookies! I also love Jason's Deli breakfast croissants and Planet Sub sandwiches. All of which have been in my eyesight and filling my nose with their wonderful scents all day long! Did I mention that they are also giving away free goodies in the break room today? Resisting is difficult! But I've managed to avoid everything! The only thing I have accepted is a bottle of water. I think today should be the last day of being surrounded by food for a while. Except for all of the left-over cookies. Once they're gone, I should be okay. Definitely testing my will power this week. Thankfully, I'm winning!

We had a new hire class start today at work and our secretary ordered way too much food for both breakfast and lunch. So of course all of the leftover bagels, pastries, sandwiches, chips, cookies, brownies, etc are in my department and someone announces every 10-15 minutes that we need to eat the rest of the food. I'm starving! But I have resisted. It helps that I announced I wasn't going to eat any of it because I brought my lunch and have my calories for the day accounted for. I got a couple "good for you"s which makes it even harder to change my mind and pick up something to eat. Which is a good thing. I don't know why I'm so hungry today. I'm not usually this hungry at this time of day. It's probably because I want so badly to go get some of the free food. I've always been a sucker for free food. But I will be good. I am accounting for every calorie I put into my mouth and that food isn't worth it. Even if it is free.

Today is March 1st. My goal for this month is record EVERYTHING that I eat all month long. Good or bad. I want to get an accurate count for the month of how much I'm actually eating and burning. I'm also hoping that this goal will help keep me from eating the bad foods. If I know I have to record it, I'll be less likely to eat it right? And I know, I know...technically no food is "bad." But I really need to stay away from the drive-thrus. So add that to my goals for March. NO FAST FOOD! It's only 31 days. And after that, I'll be used to not going to the drive-thrus so it will be less of a temptation right?
