Day 153: Graduation party

Total weight loss: 29 1/2 pounds

Yesterday was Sunday. We had lots of work to do on the rental house – it’s ALMOST ready to sell. We started out at the local diner, as usual. I had a 3 cheese omelet and bacon, as usual. LOL

There wasn’t much time for lunch, so I grabbed a KFC original recipe breast. Linz looked it up and it’s only 4 carbs, so it’s a great option for a quickie lunch.**[please see this comment]

We were due at a graduation party, which I figured wouldn’t tempt me too much. I’ve been through quite a few parties now, and I can usually find something low carb.

I chose a hot dog, no bun; sloppy joe, no bun; and some dip and cauliflower.

Then the temptation set in…. I DO LOVE tortilla chips and cheese. I took 7.

After watching my fellow keto family (Bran and Linz) devour about a dozen cupcakes of various flavors, I succumbed to peer pressure. I ate one choco-peanut butter cupcake. It wasn’t worth the carbs. (Not that it wasn’t good. It just wasn’t good enough to risk slowing down the weight loss.)

I have to have that thought in the forefront of my mind when it starts playing temptation tricks on me.
