pleeeze tell me I haven't totally screwed up

[equestrian63]

I had a tremendous 2nd day of induction yesterday, and am starting to feel a little fluish now, but other than struggling to take in enough water and veggies today, I'm OK. I can't believe my mouth already is starting to tast horrible! Well anyway, I hate wasting stuff, and I had this dannon sugar-free low-carb yogurt (3gramstotal), and I ate one today because I just bought the package last weekend & Didn't want to waste it. Should I just throw it away?

It isn't the end of the world but it isn't the best thing you could do for induction either. At least it isn't loaded with sugar alcohols.

Just count it for the day and move on. I would give it to someone lese so they could finish it off for ya though!

If it isn't open, hold off until your out of induction. You will do your self the biggest favor by sicking to a strick two week induction, and then if you need to eat the yogurt, and if you can't find someone to give it to......

Desert is right. THE best present you can give yourself is a strict induction. With me and induction.............anything sweet will make me crave and thats my whole point is to rid myself of those cravings. And the sooner they are gone the better imo.

OK I would say freeze it and when intduction is over thaw just a bit and eat like ice cream.

OK. I guess being successful is WAY more important than a $2.29 package of yogurt. Scary. I'm reminding myself of my mother-in-law, who still is back in the depression...
My goal for today is to not put any sweetener in anything- no splenda or sweetnlow in my decaf or anything! Day 4 is starting out really well- I am more alert and functioning better first thing in the morning. I usually have one or two glasses of wine before bed to relax, and while it helped me to wind down, I don't think it was doing me any favors come morning. The other thing I need to do is get mor salad stuff today- I'm getting burned out on spinach & brussels sprouts . Thanks for the help, you guys are awesome!

Re: pleeeze tell me I haven't totally screwed up

When I started out on this WOE, I just emptied my cupboards of illegal foods and gave them all to my family members.

2.5 years later, I still dont regret it. Maybe you could do the same?

Re: pleeeze tell me I haven't totally screwed up

I would love to empty out my cupboards, but I think the family may tar and feather me if I do that. And since they outnumber me 7 to 1 I will just keep my stuff in my own little cupoboard, my section of the fridge and the deep freeze. But when the kids are grown and moved out. Hee hee, I will only keep my food in the house!!!

If they want to eat at my house then they can eat myfood.

Re: pleeeze tell me I haven't totally screwed up

I have thrown out the bad stuff, however my five year old's snacks and lunch stuff must remain (he needs the calorie rich stuff because he needs to gain weight), so I have no choice but to handle his food daily, but it is becoming less and less of a temptation. So far, so good. Now I'm off to the store for more salad stuff, because I haven't quite had enough veggies, so I need to rectify that!

were a dust mask when you handle the kids forbidden foods and you will have a stopping point before it can get in your mouth where you have to decide to lift the mask to eat it and that should be enough time for you to say whao what am I doing to my health ans smaller body by eating this?
