I'm going out to meet people for drinks tonite

My friends end up ordering huge, fried appetizers and it's hard to turn down. I like to feel social with everyone. I've been doing well, if I indulge, just tonite, how much can it set me back? any ideas? TIA.

Order a salad for yourself and try your very hardest to not eat the fried stuff (one bite here or there won't hurt, but try not to bite EVEYTHING), then get a low cal drink like a light beer or just get water or tonic. Why spoil your diet when you don't have to? You'll feel better if you don't and it will be an accomplishment to resist those fried foods!

Or try to get your friends to replace one of their appetizers with a veggie platter, or something else healthy. Then you can munch on sliced peppers and carrots instead of fries.

Thank you. I'm on my way out now. I think that at least because I said it out loud I'll do better.
