I almost cheated last night

[Beat-The-Bulge-In_06]

but I am SO glad that I didn't. I am SO proud of myself

I had a dentist appt yesterday evening and upon leaving the dentist office I found myself to be very hungry and craving sugar. I was close to going in the grocery store to buy some Hostess Ho Ho's and then I was gonna go to McDonalds and order food there as well.

Then all of a sudden, I switched lanes and proceeded to go home and ate a healthy low carb meal.

That was a close call. Whew (wipes forehead)

Good for you!! Isn't a great feeling when that happens. I had to make brownie's for my daughter's school and got some chocolate on my finger and was like, "O.K. just a lick won't be bad". I wiped it on a napkin real fast and didn't give in. Give yourself a pat on the back!!

good for you. you might want to check your next dental visit and see if the stuff they use is causing you to think you got sugar and stimulating insulin release causing your craving unless you were late for eating which caused this.

Pack your Atkins emergency kit with something you can eat foryour phase in just such an emergency.

Happy low carbing.

Congratulations on not giving in to Ho Ho's or McDonald's! Feels good, doesn't it?

I love that feeling of not giving it, it makes me feel stronger and it shows you are really taking this seriously...we have candy bowls in the house from Easter that are for my nephews and I just smile big and walk on by =)

my dh and i do eat at mc donalds occasionally. just have a low carb burger, no bun or ketchup. really it isn't to bad, kind of like a hamburger salad, it works in a pinch.
