sweetened and unsweetened iced tea!!!

Ok this got us thinking, are we going to be honest about it or make excuses and go on with our daily lives. But we finally decided to do the right thing. We planned/agreed to change our lifestyles and we started curbing our appetite today. This may not seem important but it is to our health (we have hit rock bottom of 200lbs or more). So let me share to you what we had today. First, Potsie had breakfast consisting of rice and modified Tinola (instead of sayote I only have cabbage). At lunch which was really my breakfast, we had again rice, modified Tinola and apple wedges (apples courtesy of Sheraton Hotel of N.Myrtle beach,SC) with peanut butter for dessert and for beverages we had half a cup of coffee, 6 ounces of freshly squeezed OJ and 12 ounces of water. In between snacks we have 2 apple wedges with peanut butter again. After doing all our major errands in the afternoon (doctors check ups and cel phone updates) we went to Macaroni Grill. At this point we had given up on our so-called curbing our appetite. We are succumbing to our old ways. We went in and browsed the menu. But at the end I think we still did pretty well. We ordered the calamari for starters I had the salad Potsie had the soup with unsweetened iced tea for me and sweetened for Potsie. We ordered our main course of Salmon with teriyaki glaze for me and Potsie ordered the Lobster lasagna and let me tell you. We ended up having it wrapped to go since we were already full! So yes, we did not over indulge but just satisfied our restaurant cravings. And now we have food for 2 meals to look forward to. Again my warmest thanks to Cha and Lhey the source of our strength in this endeavor.
