Day 19

Wow…can’t believe it.  Day 19.  Almost 3 weeks.  Another night out with the girls.  It was a friend’s bday party and we celebrated at Z’Tejas..they have AWESOME margaritias and food.  So here’s what I did.  I ordered a glass of white wine.  Then the girls ordered appetizers.  Uh oh.  Can I do it?  When the food came, by good friend Gina promptly took the basket of chips and moved them to the other side of the table.  I love her.  I wasn’t really tempted to eat them but it was a very nice jesture. 

I was too busy chit chatting the entire time to even think about food much.  But then I started feeling a bit hungry.  I was going to order a chicken dish off the menu (it sounded REALLY really good) but I started talking to our server and told her I’m on a very strict diet.  She knew exactly what to do.  She brought me a chicken breast marinated in pesto and a very small order of black beans.  I had asked her about the veggies and they had a summer medly of green beans and some other veggies I didn’t really like.  So he mentioned the black beans and I thought that was perfect. 

The chicken breast was small and the side order of black beans VERY small.  Perfect.  A VERY healthy dinner.  I’m so proud of myself.  I really am. 

Oh, by the way…when I went to get dressed, my pants that I was going to wear were just too big.
