Friday night is my "anything goes" night. I eat well all day and save myself some calories for the night, but I don't count. Last night it was a lovely pinot grigiot, grilled steak, some bread and butter, and the little lava cakes from Costco. Surprisingly, no vegetables, LOL! (In my defense I had a big salad for lunch.) And... I'm down a couple more ounces. One thing that has changed for me is how much I eat. It's not the quantity, it's the quality. A small piece of really well-cooked steak; some very fresh French bread; those little lava cakes... all good. I'm even using a smaller wine glass, LOL! Train the brain... eat well, eat small. No need to binge. I'm chewing slower and taking more time with my food, too, which helps get me to a feeling of satiety earlier.
Today I'll be doing a lot of walking around at a couple of fairs and I hope to burn off another ounce or two (if I can resist the kettle corn).
