I recently began my weight loss journey, tracking my calories and exercising lightly. On days when I’m at home I usually don’t have much issue with it. My issue is whenever I go out - even if I’m just running errands I’ll stop at Starbucks or another fast food restaurant and get myself something. As a result, on these days I typically consume many more calories than I burn.
Today I went to the mall and despite the temptations of the food court and all the places to eat I waited until I got home to have a snack, and as a result I was able to control my caloric intake. I’m very proud of myself because I typically give in so easily to fast food.
My go-to fast food is an iced chai latte from Starbucks which has 240 calories in a grande. I’ve started making my own iced chai at home for half the calories and a fraction of the cost. This definitely helped me resist Starbucks. It’s not the same and won’t completely replace it, but it’ll help reduce the high calorie drinks I consume!
This may be a small step, but it’s a step in the right direction!
