Weekends...how to handle them?

This weekend was really busy but very rewarding! My niece graduated and we celebrated on Saturday. Spent a great day serving at Church on Sunday. All event that take you/us away from our daily routines and food choices. How do you make the "right" choices. I hope I didn't do too bad and mess myself up. I was careful to eat lightly and cautiously but you know, sometimes you start to doubt it's worth it! But, I did over come and came home to eat my Healthy Choice meal and yummy, Salisbury Steak and potatoes w/ green beans for a mere 170 calories! Sweet victory and NO quilt! lol Sundays are tough! We are used to going out to eat as a family and our "usual" places aren't necessarily the healthiest! Did choose broiled fish and salad today and think that was okay! You know, we find so much comfort in the "usual'/routine in our lives that sometimes anxiety comes when we change that.
I have really been seeking God during the last couple of weeks. I know that after our time studying Christine Caines book "Can I have and do it all please?" that I really do have to make some changes in my life in order to run the race and WIN! Staying in my lane will have to include sticking to the decisions that are for my best. Those choices can be food, but you know that your choice in friends and places is just a important! Time and prayer has shown me that going out to eat is the "way" I've done life, probably since I could drive myself! McDonald's on the way home from school, dates eating out, even the time Sterling and I spend together is eating or eating out! We are having a difficult time deciding what to do together...between my calorie count and his dietary restrictions, wow we are a ton of dining fun! BUT, you know what, God is showing us other ways to spend that time. I am sure there are going to be friends that won't "enjoy" our time together as much because of this. But you know what, God will NOT let that void remain!
Trusting God that as our new groups begin, I can stick to my "guns" and not allow myself to slip!
