Progress....

I just got back from going to a candle party that Brian's mom was hosting. It was so much fun! It was a spa themed one so we all gave ourselves mini pedicures on top of getting to see what new candles the catalogue had to offer. My sister and I are going to host our own party in January! We went over for dinner beforehand and there was temptation everywhere. While it may not have been the healthiest day, I think I made some great choices! Here is what was served:
Ceasar salad
Whole wheat buns
Ribs
Chicken Wings
Baked Potatoes
Wine
Coleslaw
Macaroni Salad
Apple Blossoms with Vanilla Iced Cream for dessert
Chips, spinach dip, dessert squares and assorted chocolates during the event

I had some ceasar salad (without the croutons or bacon bits), 1 piece of ribs, 1 chicken wing, 1 small baked potato. I skipped the bun, the desserts, the wine, and all appetizers! I am quite proud of myself :-) I'm really noticing how much I have changed. I'm not as nervous to go out and have fattier foods (like ribs for example), and am able to have just a little bit and skip out on dessert to make up for it.

Anyways, meals for today:

Breakfast: 3/4 cup of cereal, 1 cup of skim milk

Snack: Apple

Lunch: 1 tortilla, 2 tbsp. low fat artichoke and asiago dip, Clementine, 1 prune yogurt, Diet dr. pepper

Snack: Peanut butter granola bar

Dinner: 1 piece of ribs, 1 chicken wing, 1 small baked potato, 1 serving ceasar salad, Diet coke

Plus I drank A TON of water!
