I've always made it through the first week! Today's challenge: lunch with my coworkers. This challenge has a couple of aspects to it. The most relevant to this blog is the challenge of where: The Panda Buffet. Chinese food is not an easy way to eat healthy. It will be a little easier for me because it isn't hard for me to eat less when I'm around strangers, and let's face it, my coworkers are pretty much strangers. But, usually I just don't eat, which is not going to be possible for me in this situation. We're going for lunch, I have to eat lunch. Plus, I don't want them thinking I'm trying to hold myself apart. I'm actually trying to be a part of the group dynamic, prove I'm a team player. So I have to try to eat healthy at a Chinese restaurant, not my strong suit.
The second challenge is making sure I don't spend too much money. My fear right now is that I'm going to end up paying for part of a tab rather than just my portion. The irony of not being able to pay for a work lunch because work doesn't give me very many hours is teeth grinding. I thought writing it out would help, but really it's just making me worry more. So instead, some pump up talk!
I've been doing great so far with my work outs. I've been sticking with my new dietary plan. I'm heading toward my goal. Tomorrow is the end of the week and Sunday is my day when I get to splurge on one thing. I'm looking forward to it.
