The best laid plans...
I successfully avoided the Chinese for lunch, but then what was made for dinner was something I couldn't eat (I can't stand pasta), so the Chinese it was... Still, I kept the rice portion size under control: I normally go a bit nuts with that.
Today I'm going to try and have a smaller breakfast and add some more snacks.
For the record (my own as well as anyone else who happens to read this), I'm currently not in complete control of my diet. This will change, but for the time being I need to make the best of the situation I have. So my diet plan isn't currently perfect, but it is a heck of a lot better than it used to be, and will get better as time goes by. I consider this to be something of a first phase of my weight loss plan. It will be slow, but getting used to eating less will by itself be very useful. When phase 2 starts it will look a lot more "serious" and I will lose weight a lot more quickly.
For now I just need to stick with it: slow though it may be, this is still positive.
They say not to rely solely on the scales to indicate that you're losing weight: yesterday I tightened my belt a notch. Can't be too bad then!
Oh, and I predict a decent bump down on tomorrow's weigh in. :) Three days around the same weight isn't going to stick considering the calorie savings I've been making...
