I am doing the insulin resistance plan (I don't have IR, but I do have PCOS and I think the plan is very sensible) and I didn't eat ANYTHING that I would be ashamed of!
I had:
A sensible portion of fruit (red grapes and strawberries) and cheese cubes at the first party because it was earlier on, so more like a snack between breakfast and lunch -- NO CAKE or dessert or anything!!
and for the second one, which was more a lunchtime, I had:
a reasonable portion (say, half cup) each of black beans, vegetarian baked beans with vegggie franks, and about 1/4 cup of rice with two deviled eggs -- so about a whole egg total.
I also had about 6 ounces of sangria, but c'mon, it was a party lol ... and also, I want to learn the art of moderation and being able to be sensible and not all/nothing (which is a mindset that has led to many failures).
The rest of the day I had water
NO CAKE! NO COOKIES! NO SODA! I am so darn proud because parties and such are SUCH binge triggers for me.
The best part is, weigh-in was today, three more pounds gone - and I managed in a work-out too.
Even better, I didn't even *think* about food today other than to plan sensibly. I didn't sneak food when no one was watching, I didn't cave and eat cake, or binge, or obsess.
I feel like I am really changing my mindset and I am so happy
(ETA: the lack of veggies is because neither party had any veggie plate or anything that wasn't attached to something that was worse for me lol)
