it is so hard to not become complacent when you eat out!!! I understand that and still have trouble with the fact the first thing on the table is usually warm bread...I can literally consume an entire basket and still eat dinner ....bread is one of my total downfalls in life and something I have to avoid completely I am afraid...I dont ask for it to be taken away (unless I am eating alone) because there are usually others at the table that will eat enjoy it and not have a problem with it it ..but I do try to focus only on what I really love to eat and try to remind myself I can have whatever I really truely want off the menu!!!! We all can ...we can have wonderful food prepared for us and still loose and keep wt off!!!

you always have time in life reflect on the whole point doing this ..there is no such thing as too hungry to make a good choice...I find if I am "starved" I will drink the glass of water and then look at the menu it takes the edge off and you can relax and peruse all you want picking and choosing...

.you did a great job and will continue to ...I have no doubt you are going to be a complete success ..congratulations on this one
