I have not been to a fast food restaurant in a week! This may be a lame "success" but for me it's huge. Drive thru is my biggest weight loss hurdle. I officially joined weight watchers Thursday at 169 lb, so I won't weigh in until Thursday to see if this has had an impact on the scale, but it has surely had an impact on how I feel.

Congrats!!! I totally know how hard not eating out can be. Sometimes I just don't wanna cook! Keep it up, learning to make yourself healthy meals will totally make an impact on the scale and how you feel. Keep it up Skinnytaste.com is a great place to find lots of healthy recipes too!

Congratulations! Avoiding something you really love is always a hard habit to break. Eventually you'll be driving by them and not even think about it.

I do understand! It is hard to break a habit, especially one like this that is easier than cooking.

We tend(ed) to eat out a lot, including fast food. Breaking a habit that like that is hard!

You can do it--and you'll be glad you did it! Success breeds success...

You are my husband's HERO, LOL. He can especially identify with how hard that can be. Way to go!!

This is a big mini goal. Congrats to you.

Not lame at all! Way to go!

No success is lame! That really is brilliant, congratulations

I definitely recommend checking out recipes, I have one for making healthy burgers that looks delicious that I want to try out. If you can work out how to make your own healthier and tastier versions of certain foods, especially if you can freeze or pre-prepare (is that a word?) them, then you're laughing!

Good for you!

Good to hear This is something I am needing to do myself. Not 100% quit but a lot closer then I have been. We have been eating at home more

That's a hard habit to break. Damn the convenience..Way to go!

I know how hard it is. Good for you. Pretty soon you'll be craving healthy food rather than fast food.

Breaking a bad habit is for sure not lame! Way to go!!

yay!

congrats!

you won't miss it after a while.

I have had an addiction to McDonald's cheeseburgers, fries and their hot mustard sauce since I worked there in 1981! After the pink slime photos, I no longer can stomach the meat. But I do love their hot mustard sauce, I wish they would bottle it like taco bell has bottled their sauce. A little sauce makes life tastier!!
