Linda Marmon's Journal, 02 December 2014

12-2-2014 Weighed in at 256.6. I'm so pleased, but I've done this before. Lost 5 or more pounds and then...Boom, it's back. Then the next week it starts all over again. Rob and I went to Sonic Drive-in for lunch, and I was very disappointed. A small order of fries, they were hot and wonderful. But that grilled chicken on ciobatta bread was so disappointing. The chicken was like jerky, but the flavor was good. Rob ate 1/2 of my sandwich and some of my fries while they were re-doing his charred burger. For supper, I had a scrawny little Reuben, and followed with 1/2 cup cottage cheese and pineapple chunks. Charred burgers are not usual for our Sonic, It's always been good. That's one reason we love our Chinese Buffet, the food is good. We just have to cut our portions. I won't cut out any food I love because that's the surest way to cause my diet to fail. I'm going to cut most of the high cal stuff into maybe 1/4. But our main purpose in going is the salad my husband loves, and I love the way they stir fry broccoli, green beans, calamari, shrimp as well as their barbeque ribs and fish. I love egg drop soup, wonton soup, but mostly we are going every Sunday for the clams steamed in a garlic-ginger broth. I would go just for them. The Kimchee isn't bad either. I've had trouble eating salads since my surgery and I love .lettuce. I forgot to mention I can by-pass the sweets to eat fruit.

I agree with you. It is all about portion control! I also find I sabotage myself if I deny a certain food group. Moderation is the key in all things. I do try to eat as healthy as possible but I also let myself have "treats". I let myself have one "cheat" meal a week where I will choose something like pizza or Chinese or whatever I happen to be hungry for that week. It definitely helps me to stay on track the rest of the time:) Keep up the good work!
