"Family" Style Dining

Today, I fell of the bandwagon. I had a work dinner and we went to a restaurant that serves "family" style food and the waiter encouraged us to share all the food because not all the food comes out at once. This was a big mistake and I will try hard to avoid these situations. Don't get me wrong the food was WONDERFUL!!! The problem is that because the food was shared I ate small amounts of EVERYTHING over a 2 hour period and I ate way more than if I would have ordered my own food. Eating so slowly isn't good for me because I can overeat if I do this. The only thing that makes me feel better is that most of what was ordered was not "carby" but the amount was still too much.

 

Well, anyway I will be aware of these types of situations in the future and give myself a time limit of eating (20 minutes) and will politely excuse myself and go home.

 

I had to get that off my chest. I won't beat myself up anymore about this last meal but focus on planning better for my next one...I can't change the past but I can change my future. :thumbup:
