Still hungry but looser pants!

I am still really hungry in between meals but I am trying to eat pretty good. I didn't eat so good this weekend, too many sweets.

Friday night I wore a pair of jeans I haven't worn in awhile and they were even a tiny bit loose! Today I have on a pair of dress pants that I couldn't wear because they were too tight in the waist and legs, but they fit great today!

I have been missing caffeine. I have only had caffeine a few times (once when I was driving 3 hours and I was very tired, and once when I ordered a latte and forgot to ask for decaf, another time when I needed some caffeine so I wouldn't fall asleep in class) and I've had a few small glasses of soda here and there, so it's tough. All in all, I think I've had coffee 3 times and less than probably 32 oz of soda in over a month.

I am having to learn how to eat in restaurants. I haven't eaten out a lot since surgery, but I am learning that I cannot share an appetizer and eat a meal too. If I eat any of an appetizer (even what I feel like isn't a large amount) I can only eat a few bites of my food. This happened on Saturday. I took my meal home and had 2 meals from it the next day. I am just worried about eating Mexican because 1. I love Mexican food and 2. I love chips and salsa. I hope I don't just fill up on chips and salsa and not be able to eat my meal. Of course, I can take it home and eat it later. The only time I would not be able to do that is if I was traveling or wouldn't be able to get it into a fridge within an hour or so. If that's the case, I will have to either say no to an appetizer or I will have to just have a small side of soup or something if I eat the appetizer.
