Today is the tale of spinach dip. I was at California Pizza Kitchen with my mom. She up and orders the dang spinach dip. I love spinach dip, but know that it’s not the best choice for my current eating plan. I am so proud of myself. I had less than 2 whole chips with dip. This is a feat. I continued my 15-20 chews and only ate half of my lettuce wraps along with the above spinach dip. This strategy appears to be working out. One of the themes of my goals is to make new habits that are sustainable. I don’t want to try something so strenuous or restricted that I am stressed out. In addition, I don’t want to fall off the wagon because I feel like I’m being tortured or have unreasonable long term goals. This is just the first week, but I’m excited about the future. One day at a time! Thanks for all of your help!
6 days down, 15 days until it’s a habit.
Much nub and fitness,
EG

Yeah, only 2 chips. I've noticed that it helped that I already made it up in my mind that I wasn't going to eat many of them. Plus, I started my entree at the same time, so there was less temptation to fill up on chips and dip first.
