Feeling quite proud of myself!

After falling off the wagon Friday I was determined to be back to normal asap. So yesterday (Saturday) the kids and I were meeting my mum and going into town for my optician appointment. Usually I am a morning person but my appointment wasn't until 4pm.

So, in order to not break my calories, we had dinner at 12 noon instead of lunch and then I made myself a back-up packed lunch (half a peanut butter sandwich and a curly wurly).and took it with me.

Well, my mum as usual wanted to stop somewhere for a bite to eat. This was about 5pm now. Anyways I ate my sandwich and curly wurly whilst the rest of the family had buffalo wings, chicken strips, chips, dips, salad etc etc! I didn't feel hungry as I was happy with my own food but I still got to join in and socialise!

And as if that wasn't enough !! My mum then took us to a gelato dessert shop! You know, one of those places dedicated to ice cream and waffles and toppings, cream and sprinkles! It was a little tempting! I was looking at the Oreo cookie ice cream! But yes!! I resisted!! So I am pretty darn impressed with myself!!!

Organisation definitely helps! As does routines! In my trusty little book of calories, meals and plans I have plans for off work days, plans for cinema, plans for when-visiting-my-mother, and plans for having a take away night but still staying within calorie limits. Lol

Of course, not everything goes to plan! But I do try and this time I managed to stick to it! Haha

Can't always stick to a plan, but it sounds like you stick to it more than you don't. I love the fact that you've got it all listed though, good idea!
