We went to Devyn's 75th Anniversary Cub Scout Banquet last night. I was really hungry. I didn't have anything before we left in anticipation of eating at the banquet. The most filling were the rolls, I had 2.5 of them (Brenai shared one with me). Other than that, I had a salad, some mashed potatoes and corn. For dessert, I had a reasonable piece of caramel cheesecake (about a 2.5" triangle) and two strawberries. It's been at least a year since I had cheesecake of any kind, boy was it yummy!

At home for dinner I made non fat yogurt bread bowls and some veggie stew. I found myself trying to talk myself out of eating dinner, but I knew I should eat because I didn't really have very much at the banquet all in all. I was very careful about what went into that stew because I knew I would probably try to talk myself out of having any of it...

I tried to rationalize that we ate late at the banquet and I wasn't really that hungry anyway so I probably shouldn't have anything else. Plus, it was rather late when we finally sat down to dinner (8p).

But I did manage to have two servings of veggie stew and my bread bowl. I did my best not to feel bad about it and the praise for how great dinner turned out was a big help. :-)

I did manage to find my way to the scale this morning. :-| It read a pound lighter than yesterday, but it didn't determine my mood or how I feel about myself today because I looked in the mirror before stepping on the scale and am quite happy with the reflection I saw. :-)
