My cold beer after practicing softball with my husband. |
Today I ordered sesame chicken from a local Chinese restaurant for lunch. I literally had nothing to pack for lunch, so ordering out was my option. I felt myself getting full halfway though the meal. You can see from the picture below that they are very generous with their lunch specials.

Sesame chicken: one of my greatest weaknesses. |
I continued eating even after I was full, but then I decided "NO!"; I wasn't going to treat my body like a garbage can. Right before I decided to throw the food in the real garbage can, I felt a flood of emotion come over me. I felt anxious and guilty all at once. I thought to myself, "how can I throw this food away when there are people who are hungry all over the world." The emotion that I felt was so strong I almost picked up my fork and finished the meal. Surprised by the intense emotion; I quickly snapped a picture of the leftovers with my phone and tossed the food in the trash can before I could think about it any longer.

The food that I couldn't finish. |
I still feel guilty about not eating the food, but I thought about it and I believe that I would have felt guilty if I would have finished the food, too. What is a girl to do? Stop ordering the sesame chicken lunch special, I suppose!

Another reason that I am feeling good today is because I have lost another 2 pounds from my gain two weeks ago. Whenever I stepped on the scale this morning I saw that I was back down to 232.8 this morning. I am hoping to maintain this loss for my weigh-in on Sunday. If I put my mind to it, I can do it!
