I have another eating out challenge tonight, but I know I'll make a good choice. I feel too good right now not too! I'm going to try to forgo my afternoon Balance bar or maybe I'll just eat it later in the afternoon so I'm not as hungry at dinner. We're going out with my parents and my in-laws. I'm so lucky that everyone likes each other so much that they actually WANT to get together. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful family (old and new!). The Dinner A Fare last night was really fun. It was still a lot of work, but now I have 13 healthy dinners in my freezer to help stay away from eating out/take out. Hopefully they'll be as good as they look!

Tomorrow my department is volunteering at Project Open Hand, who prepares and delivers meals to sick and elderly people who are unable to get out. It's always a great experience. We are having chick-fil-a biscuits for breakfast, but I'm going to stick to my Balance bar!

Here's my food journal for today:
Breakfast: Balance bar and banana
Lunch: 2 Light Laughing Cow cheese wedges and 1 serving wheat thins harvest grain
Yopliat Light peach yogurt - 6 ounces
1.5 cup fruit salad - canteloupe, strawberries
Snack: Balance bar (late, around 4)
Dinner: Grilled chicken sandwich - wheat bun, chicken, smoked gouda slice, lettuce, pesto (small amount, I got it on the side and just put a little bit on!)
Fresh fruit - grapes, honeydew, canteloupes
Dessert: 1 bite each of coconut cake, blackberry cobbler, bread pudding
Water: 80 ounces (at least!)

I did good at dinner, I planned ahead what I was going to have (I looked at the menu online) and I think that helped. They had such good things on the menu, but it's too early to cheat on a whole meal! Maybe later on I can splurge every now and then, but not on Day 4! The desserts were enough of a splurge, but I limited myself to 1 small bite of each (we got several different ones for the table to share). Overall, another great day!
