I think I'm addicted to carbs. No matter what I do they always seem to sneak up on me. I guess as long as I'm eating 1 g protein per lb I won't worry too much. This is sooo much better than what I've been doing for years. I can't believe how much motivation I have now that I've joined. I don't want to eat anything too "bad" because I know I'll have to log it. I guess I'll enjoy this feeling and good eating while it lasts. Have a feeling it's going to catch up to me sooner or later.

**Maybe sooner: am going out to an Italian place with the girls tomorrow (Wed) night. Have already decided on a meal from the menu but am trying very very hard to resist the alcohol. Have already told them they can't let me drink anything. Guess this will be the true test of my willpower.

Oh, and I finally figured out how to give karma. DUH - that only took two weeks!

Night all - have to be up in 5 hours.

First test is over: Went out to eat, ordered the healthiest choice on the menu and drank absolutely no alcohol even at the bar. I just cannot figure out why people are so against you when you try to eat healthy!! Anyone ever heard of moral support rather than make you feel like a wierdo?? I have a feeling my going out days are going to become very limited if I keep having to explain my new eating habits to people who don't want to hear it.

OMG, I experienced the same thing tonight. Like you, I am thinking I would rather not eat when socialising because of the comments I get. It's easier to not have to justify myself. Trying to be strong.

I had no alcohol either - a first for me when everyone else is drinking.

First I want to say congrats! Great job

Your feeling is correct my dear... And you can count on this NOT being easy and you will find yourself explaining yourself over and over and over and over... but you make the choice on how to approach it... Stand firm in your goals and the path you are taking to achieve them

Sassy's been doing this for about 20 years (if not more)... and I'm sure she can tell you how many times she's had to explain why her meals are packed, etc... well maybe she lost count after 1,000,000... I know I did

Thanks Mermaid and Bunny.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels like that. I just get so tired of explaining myself and how important this is to me. People will either have to accept me for who I now am or get over it!!

If I seriously do decide to try a competition it only gets worse from here.

Bring it on!!
