I am leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow and hope I can keep track of what I eat as well as I have at home. I am a creature who thrives on routine. Vacation will really throw my routine off and that is a huge concern.

So true...it's still a treat for me when I eat out, but I make it a thought out healthy meal. I CAN live without the fattening yummy sauces and my food still tastes great!

Too True we cannot play games with nutrition and meet our goals.

Putting the fork down

Putting the fork down a few times during the meals helps to register the amount I am eating. At the start of the meal, I am eager to get back to the meal when I put the fork down but later in the meal, I usually see that I don't have the same urge to eat the rest. Helps with Portion control, give the brain a chance to register that I am eating and not just devour the food. Slowing down while eating helps to enjoy the food without overeating 4
