Again. Going out for dinner tends to provide too many opportunities to indulge. I think I didn't get past the 185 lb mark because I ate out a couple of times. Pigging out while at a restaurant is easy, because the portions are so huge and the food is so rich. By "rich" I mean rich in that delicious "fatty" goodness...often linked to calorie rich fats such as butter. Even with expanding my workout to 29 minutes of cardio and about 1 hour or weights 5 days a week, a simple night out to eat sets me back a couple of days. Try two or three dinners out, and that's about a week and half to two weeks to catchup.
I even tried having a smoothie before going out so I felt full. That didn't even stop me from stuffing myself. Lesson learned: just order the bloody salad and be done with it. Or better yet...don't eat out period...until you are at your goal weight.
