Day 235

Monday 22nd August 2016

I have found over the summer that I have eaten out a lot. When I go out for a meal I find that I really want to order food that I can’t have now. 

I don’t know why because I have got into some really good habits this year. I think it’s because when I look at a menu I seem to home in on everything I have chosen for years.

Beef burgers were the things I ordered most. 

Sometimes I find that I am really craving for one too. However I have found that maybe I can’t order a burger the normal way ( with the bun) but I can still order it if I want. I don’t eat the bun, I replace the chips for sweet potato fries and ask for more salad. 

I sometimes find myself ordering something really healthy because I know that is what I should do. I find ordering something I don’t fancy really hard. Once it’s ordered I sit there hoping I am going to like my food when it arrives. 

When it finally does arrive I find that I really enjoy my choice – proberly even more than if I had actually order a burger.

I always thought that a salad wouldn’t fill me up enough. I have always thought that I need something really fattening to fill me up. I never realised what damage I was doing to my body. I now find that a salad is enough and I constantly get amazed at how full I feel afterwards. 

So eating out maybe different but its achievable and I don’t tend to struggle too much anymore when it comes to ordering.
