Plans that change and still making a healthy choice

I (37M, 6’8”, 290 ~25%) was supposed to have dinner with my mom tonight, wanting to try cooking a new recipe (Chicken Pad Thai) for her.

She called to get a rain check, and historically that would have been more than enough for me to just run and go grab something or order takeout.

Not sure what was different today, but I finally chose to make the new recipe, even though it was for just me. It feels like a choice I’ve rarely made, and partly why I’ve always struggled to maintain or lose weight over the years.

I know that plans change all the time, but I’m quite dependent on schedules and consistency, and it just feels good to break through it once and make the better choice for myself today.

TLDR Dinner date with mom rescheduled, didn’t get pizza delivered, made Pad Thai for myself, got the rice noodles all wrong, will make again, happy about the choice I made today.
