It is so much easier to eat healthy foods and make healthy choices when you don't have friends wanting to go out to eat with you for almost every meal! It's not that I have an exorbitant amount of friends, it's that the ones that I do have all work / live close together and today was a particularly unhealthy day because of it.
A friend wanted to go to Zaxby's (read: fried chicken fingers and lots of fries) for lunch, and the other wanted Denny's for dinner. I tried to hold back at both places, but even if you get chicken sausage and turkey bacon, you're still at Denny's. I feel horrible about today. And to top it all off, my gym closes at 8 today and Denny's made me sick. So I didn't get to go to the gym.
I'm going tomorrow and I'm going to work out twice as hard for it. No more going out with friends to horrifically unhealthy places. I need to practice will power. I see them all the time, I don't have to eat with them too.
My tip of the day: politely decline dinner with friends, especially if you see them frequently anyway. Ask to hang out after dinner instead!
