Day 238: More about food

I recently talked about striving to eat healthier, keep my portions smaller and even, gasp, counting calories (in the hopes of learning to eat more reasonably).

I have been learning a lot and find that each day it becomes easier to keep my calories within reason and still stay satisfied.

Tonight, I  definitely went over - ate way to much dinner...and it was all vegetarian (except for the small ice cream for dessert).

I only mention this because it just proves what I have always felt - you can over eat on anything - even the healthy stuff.

True, over eating on healthy stuff is better than over eating on unhealthy stuff, but over eating is over eating if the goal is weight loss or maintaining weight (mine is weight loss...and health).

Despite over eating, it was fun having a veggie burger (I've never had one before). Everything was delicious...just to much. I should have eaten half, then I wouldn't be feeling so over full.

Yet, feeling over full but not icky is sooo much better than over full and icky (which is how I normally feel when I over eat on pizza or fast food)...so I guess eating vegetarian was a good thing!

Happy Walking!
