Well, today I could have eaten my favorite junk today but I bucked it up and stayed OP. It was HARD, hard, hard but I did it. I have had a clean day today. Now, I just have to make it thru tomorrow. I am literally taking this hour by hour, day by day. I have to. I find it very easy for myself to find/make excuses to cheat, especially back on induction in my weak moments of 'sweet attacks'. I have learned the hard way that for me, at least, I have to always be on my guard every moment. My foodie self is always finding ways to tempt me to sabotage myself and to give in and I don't want to do that anymore. So now, I have to really be careful. I don't even watch food commercials anymore. Candy commercials? Absolutely, not. I click the clicker as fast as my fingers can push the buttons. Believe it or not, it is actually a help. I know I am going to be suffering the next few days, especially since Aunt Flo is coming in the next few days. I get the worse cravings then. I will have to put myself on lock-down til it is over. Send some low carb hugs my way, you guys. I really need it. The next few days are gonna be tough. I need all the help I can get.

Re: Trying not to go nuts!
Woo Hoooo!!! I know this seems silly but as of today, I am cheat free 2 days! That is a big thing for me, for that means I am truly on my way. I have talked myself out of every carby, chocolatey, oooey gooey, sugary thing that has come along today and I am proud of myself!
If I can keep it up, by tomorrow I will be burning fat again! Yeeeeeehaaawwww!!! I think my new motivation came from 2 new outfits that I bought in my current size and they DON'T FIT! They are tight and that threw me. I can't afford to go up; there are no more stores for me to shop at if I get fatter. So downward is the direction I definitely need to go. Plus the outfits are soooo cute and I want to be in them soooooo bad!
I know that if I drop about 20 lbs, I should be able to get in them fairly good, God willing! Those low carb hugs did the trick! Keep 'em coming! I need them!
