ONE WEEK!

I have been giving myself shots for one week! I have stuck to my diet even when it was very hard. Today our group went out for Mexican food for lunch, and I do love Mexican food. It was so tempting to say ohhh I could cheat this one day, but I was strong, I had my chicken in the fridge and I stayed strong!
I am realizing how out of control the portions are in the United States, and I am figuring out how I became in this state. When I think about what I ate I just can't believe it. For example, the $5 footlong at Subway, WHAT A DEAL!!!! But really who needs that extra foot? I THOUGHT I did! It made my $3.79 sandwich only $1.20 more for twice the food, and who likes to waste a good value????? I will from this point out, that extra foot put on a lot of extra on me! That is one thing that I am grateful for with this diet is that it does help you learn to control your portions.
