Eating at the New Jersey Shore

I tried to make healthier choices at the shore, but I didn't have a lot of options. I should have skipped the potato salad at the Pavilion Restaurant, but I haven't had any all year. At least it was only about 1/2 cup.

At Johnny Rockets, I didn't get the french fries that came with my burger. I had a choice of bread, so I picked rye. I figured I'd at least get a higher fiber bread.

Luckily, I walked 20,000 steps the first day at the shore, and 10,000 the second day. It helped keep my weight from going up. It's nice to know I can handle situations like this, where I don't have as much control of the menu, and still not gain weight by making bad choices.
