  • a milestone, of sorts...

    i suppose this is normal but im on day three of induction and i was standing at the petrol station last night, waiting to pay for my fuel. of course, theres all of this chocolate at the counter... chocolate bars and candy and donuts and chips and lollies and everything just ladden with sugar and carbs. the cashier tried to suggestive sell 3 chocolate bars for $2 and for the first time... ever... i looked down at them and could honestly say i didnt feel like them. like, my brain wanted to say yes (like an automatic response) but my body just didnt feel like them. it was like a moment where my brain was working completely independently of my body. ive never felt like my body didnt honestly need chocolate or sugar. it was the most bizarre experience. i politely said no and got my change and walked out of there, like, high fiving myself on the inside. this was beyond willpower. i finally felt this woe kick in for me and im beyond happy about it.

    just needed to share

        Yes, that happens quite soon, doesn't it? I dont even like too many tomatoes in my salad any more - they are too sweet!
        Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
        he said, 'Don't count calories.'

            Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
            Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
