Small Victory

I completely forgot to mention my little-mini victory. I went to a Mexican restaurant on Friday night with my husband and some friends. Mexican restaurants are terrible because they always keep your table supplied with chips and salsa, and this one also supplied refried beans. I was so proud of myself because I only had about 5 chips. Our table of 6 people went through about 5 baskets, so I was very proud of myself for only eating 5 chips. And when my food arrived I ate my taco and chimichanga (not the healthiest, but by not eating the chips before I felt I had earned it) and my refried beans. I didn't touch the sour cream, guacamole, or rice. It is becoming increasingly easier to select only the things I really want (and can afford) to eat and leaving the rest behind.
