It’s been an alright journey for me losing 17lbs since Valentine’s Day (5’4 F SW 190). I’ve been feeling disappointed in myself, as I haven’t been really giving this diet my all. I stick to my CICO plan as well as I can, however, hang outs with friends almost every weekend always ends up with me gaining 2-3 pounds (I know it’s mostly water weight) and being stuck at the same weight for weeks at a time. I beat myself up thinking about all the extra weight I could’ve lost if I just had more self control to say no to unhealthy/large portions food when socializing. Almost of my social life involves going out to dinner and the food choice of my friends is almost always all you can eat style food like KBBQ or hotpot. All my friends are big eaters, and what I eat is less than half of their portions but definitely too much to stay in a deficit. I try to stop myself midway through the meal, but I tend to have an all or nothing mentality since I’m little, and I always end up slipping after a few minutes and compulsively eating more because it’s in front of me. The best solution is probably just staying home but I love my friends and I have terrible FOMO lol
Does anyone have any suggestions for this kinda situation? How do you stop yourself from eating food that’s in front of you, especially when everyone else at the table is pigging out?
