Eyes Were Bigger Than My Stomach

Apr 10, 2010

Last night we went out for dinner with friends.  Everyone thought that an all-you-can-eat buffet was a good idea so that everyone could find something that they liked.  We went and I ordered a water to drink.  But, when I went to dish up I ran into trouble.  My old ways showed up.  I took 1 chicken breast, broccoli, meatloaf, mashed potatoes , mac & cheese and a dinner roll.  Once I sat down, I took a long long at my plate and Thank God, I came to my senses.  I took the skin off the chicken and had a few bites. I cut the florets off the broccoli and ate them.  I had a small bite of the potatoes and the mac and cheese.  I took a small bite of the meatloaf.  The dinner roll went untouched.  My plate looked almost as full when I was done eating as when I sat down.

On the way home, my nephew commented on how proud he was of me for not eating all that food and how much more active I have become.  Maybe this third fill will get me under 300 lbs.
