Just say no

It's currently pretty easy to say no to food because it's not on my plan.  Not a protein or veggie? Then no.  I'm able to modify a bit, I've been out to lunch yesterday and Tuesday and I've gotten a salad with grilled chicken.  Eaten half the chicken and called it a day.  Ever ask a server what portion of meat they put on a salad?  I can eyeball 4 and 6 ounces pretty easily, but it helps to know the starting point sometimes.

Will I be able to keep this up?  I think so.  I have husband support and as my trainer said to me last night, "It's just food."  Indeed.  A month or two of this is not the end of the world.
