Down 2.6 pounds and Planning Ahead for a Win. 255.2 pounds, - 2.6 pounds today, - 77.8 pounds overall, 5.2 pounds from my next goal

I stuck to my plan yesterday—and I’m down 2.6 pounds! That kind of progress feels amazing and motivates me to keep going.

Tonight, I’m meeting a friend for dinner, and I’ll admit—I’m a little nervous about staying on track. Eating out can be tricky, especially when it’s easy to order impulsively or get swept up in the moment.

To stay ahead of that, I’ve already looked at the menu online and picked out what I’ll order. That way, I can enjoy the evening without stressing or making choices I’ll regret later.

Being prepared makes a difference.

What about you? What strategies help you stay on track when you eat out? I’d love to hear your tips!
