Day 20 - Eating observations

Well since I was on the north side of Charlottesville at lunchtime I decided I was going to get my lunch at Chick Fil A. That would normally consist of a #5 which is a choice of 8 or 12 nuggets (I get 12) and it comes with fries in a drink. I always value size this combo and request ranch and polynesian dipping sauces. Well I have lost 14 pounds so for once my mind took over instead of my stomach. I thought to myself, "self, you have yogurt at the office. All you need is a main course, not a whole meal". So I went to the Chick Fil A drive thru not exactly knowing what I would get, but I knew at the very least I could get just a pack of chicken nuggets. I was reminded as I looked at the menu that they have a chicken salad sandwich. BINGO!! That is what I got. After eating, i'm quite satisfied, and I proved to myself that I not only have will power, but my mind isn't so bad :-D

To acknowledge my main struggle - 20 days sober. Enough said, for now....

  2. Yes it was satisfying. I popped some gum in my mouth and didn't eat again until dinner.
