I've got to say this....
I've talked to three people this week who have said they might cheat on Thanksgiving.
Of course they will. They have already given themself permission to cheat. They are announcing it to everyone to be prepared because this is what is going to happen.
MY QUESTION??? Why not put the effort into PLANNING to NOT CHEAT, SUCCEED, instead???
There are 15 more days to prepare yourself to have an ATKINS FRIENDLY MEAL for Thanksgiving. It can be done. It will be done...There are recipes for everything that you can make. Oh, you are going to someone's house for dinner? Well....take your own food, PLAN ahead. You have 15 days left to PLAN for Thanksgiving success!! Don't wait till Thursday morning and the stores are closed and your cupboards are empty and you have to say, "Oh well, I didn't have time, money, ingredients, so I had to cheat
If someone who is diabetic comes to your house, do you expect them to eat a sugar laden dessert just because you made it? If an ex-alcoholic comes to your house and you are having a drink, do you get offended if they nay the drink?? NO!! So, if your dinner host says anything...just tell them that you brought your own dessert or cauliflower potatoes or whatever so that you wouldn't be putting them out by requesting something different for your meal. Explain that it is no way a reason to offend, but that you need to do this for yourself. If they get mad - then that shows they don't really care about your health.
When everyone begins this WOE, they sound so sincere and praying that this WOE works. Well, it works, but you have to do it to see results. I'm sorry...just had to say this. Now, I will quit for the rest of the day. This is just a subject that I am passionate about.
