:P I am very slowly acclimating myself to a way of eating that is sustainable.

When i tho't i was "craving" a burger - i got one. When i tho't i *had* to have pizza - i bo't 2 slices. Same with clam chowder, sour cream and onion chips and other things.

Then, i rated them. Were they worth the calories and the fall off the fire engine?

I was surprised at how "meh" the chips were! I LOVE sour cream and onion chips - usually. Same with the burger - just ok, not worth the fall. However, the clam chowder and the date pizza are worth the occasional treat!!!

I've maintained an 8 lb weight loss so far. 8-) I think as i get used to making bean burgers and other "familiar" but healthier (aka vegan) foods i will have less desire to "cheat".

I plan to try Briva's cheese sauce this coming week. Looking forward to mac and cheese with broccoli and tomatoes! :)

BTW - we did our "tradition" of going for a burger after shopping except i didn't get anything! I knew i had food waiting at home - brown rice, spinach and beans. That whole "burger not worth it thing" was well worth that burger last week! LOL

I am the weirdo who asks for everything on the burger but the meat, just a salad sandwich.

I've done both (ordering the bun - no meat AND ordering the meat and no bun). I feel cheated not getting the burger, tho', cuz that's where the $ is.
