Take out- under control

When it came time to order, the family decided on Chinese take-out.  Not a great option, but one of the better as far as eating out.  After looking over the menu I realized there were no "lite" or "healthy" options, so I went with my instincts and ordered chicken & broccoli with brown rice.  I only ate half and it turned out to be a totally reasonable meal.  

The main challenge was when we went to sit and eat...the fam ordered extra rice, egg rolls, and soup that was set on the table.  Of course they offered everything to me, but I respectfully declined.  It was friggin' hard to do, but I kept telling myself that I am strong and can make healthy decisions.  I'm very pleased with myself :)
