Hello there,
I'm going to a bday party/family reunion this afternoon (starts at 4 p.m.). I'm also going to a wedding on August 10 and this has been a very motivating factor on this weight loss journey, so I'd like to continue the momentum.
When I visualize myself going to this party, I see myself eating a little bit of salad and maybe some steak but I'm worried that once there, I'll eat a lot more than what I plan. How do I make sure that I stay on track? I will definitely avoid alcohol because that just adds more calories and increases my chances of having something I"ll regret. I might have a few (maximum 3) bites of desert since maybe it's unrealistic to avoid it? I'm addicted to sugar though so I will really try to not even have a bite.
To mitigate the damages, I'm hoping to save my calories by eating very little throughout the day, but I don't want to get famished either so I'm not going to go to low.
Normally, I'd avoid going to the party but I absolutely have to attend this one. How would you handle the situation?
