I hope I'm not sounding like I'm preaching, cuz I'm not. I'm just letting you know my perspective so that maybe it will help you if you feel like cheating. I have been on since May 6. I haven't cheated once. I've had temptaions - make breakfast, incl toast and things with _sugar_ for the rest of the family, mother's day takeout from a italian restaurant- yes pasta and bread, going out at night on the weekend. Just for fun (ok, I know I'm sick
), I bought a bag of TGIFriday's Quesadilla Nacho chips for the family and didn't have even 1 crumb.
So why haven't I cheated?
1) I don't want to start induction at day 1 again
2) My belief is that either you want to lose the weight or you are going thru the motions to fool yourself, while you 'cheat'
3) Nothing tastes as good as thin feels! This is my mantra.
So please don't take it the wrong way, this is just what I do to get
me thru this learning process.
That's not that I won't cheat- I will when I reach a milestone, but I won't just for any stray (hopefully quick to pass) temptation.
