I have to be honest. I've already screwed up again, after being so sure I wouldn't. Everything was going great all day -- eating a good healthy breakfast and lunch. And then we drove out of town for a business event last night. Found a fish restaurant on Yelp. We had fish alright. Battered fish and chips. And the first thing the waitress did was put a loaf of yeast bread with sugar glaze on our table. Basically, it was a 1-pound Krispy Kreme donut shaped into a bread loaf. And we ate almost all of it. I'm not proud. I didn't get sick. But as I was going for it, I knew I shouldn't do it, and yet I did. So there it is. I've got to forget it and move on. Whatever muscle it is that helps you just say NO to unhealthy foods -- I guess mine is still pretty withered. Need to exercise it!

But did you enjoy it? I mean, I know it was off-plan & everything, but why waste it by piling a bunch of guilt on top? This is almost identical to my date with DH the other night...I was on track with my low carb plan all the way through lunch (dined out for that) & dinner too. Then I was tempted by dessert & I decided I had a choice at that moment. I could either stick to my low carb goals & resist dessert, probably ending up frustrated & a little crabby the rest of the evening as a result, OR I could decide that one day isn't that big a deal knowing I've had & will continue to have a whole slough of excellent days to offset it. Plus I knew I'd really enjoy it & I was having a great time with DH. So I went for it, it was great, & I don't feel an ounce of guilt over it. I don't think you should either. That said, if feeling out-of-control was part of it, then that is definitely something to address. I didn't have that issue & I find I only ever tend towards that if I've got emotional stuff going on. What can you do to build your confidence in your ability to reach your goals? Whatever you come up with, DO IT. That's an order.

Everything we put in our mouths is our choice. Don't have to beat yourself up for it afterwards. Just move on. You are going to pay for it by losing a few days taking off whatever you gained from it. But this is a lifetime program we are on. Once in a while you need to give yourself a treat.

Kat, I love how you are not afraid to kick my ass! LOL! I do recall the moment when I reached for that bread. I was rationalizing -- hey, it's just a night out and I'll be better tomorrow. I am not sure if I need to be rationalizing as much as I have been lately though. It's a slippery slope for me!

PaigesGM, thanks for the reminder. It is indeed a lifetime program. I think I'll be on FS for a loooong while!

Lol! Yes, it's definitely a slippery slope. I feel the same way when I think about smoking sometimes since I haven't for over 2 & a half years. I could probably have a cigarette if I were in a social situation & had the opportunity without it becoming a habit again. I do it with food all the time. I tend to think it's trickier with food, because you can't just not eat while you learn to mend your relationship with it, & I'm definitely a much stronger person mentally now that I've quit smoking & taken control of my health. Doesn't mean I'll smoke next time I'm offered one & I'm in no rush to be in a situation where I will be. But in the back of my mind I wonder am I rationalizing it, or acknowledging I have grown beyond those unhealthy behaviors in my "old" life?

It happens. But you can get back on the wagon. That's the important thing. Don't beat yourself up. Move forward, get back on and head back towards the target. You will get there. It just takes a few days longer.
