  • Fell hard during vacation...

    Hi all. I'm feeling so disappointed in myself. I started induction and the 14th day was my first day of holidays. After a slow start, I was doing wonderfully on Atkins...as a matter of fact, my husband said it was hard to believe what a difference he saw in my body in just two weeks...

    Then, came vacation. While I admit my appetite has decreased tremendously...I fell hard. I had pretzels, popcorn, pizza, beer and wine. Ugh. So, here I am again. I feel awful.

    I started Induction again this morning...I just have been so tired, and can't believe how easy it was to just start binging on carbs again...

    Any encouragement would be appreciated...I know I can do it. I just feel awful that I was swayed so easily on a two week holiday...d'oh.

    It happens, the important thing is you got back on the wagon and now you know how easy it was to fall off. It starts with one little thing then landslides. :P

    Welcome back and don't stress about it, today is a new day!

      I have just booked a weekend away in Brussels, its not for another 5 weeks and i am so afraid of falling off the waggon... every travel guide I have looked at says 'you must try Belgian chocolate' or 'Mussels Mayonnaise and Chips are a speciality', I know ill feel terrible when I come back if i eat all that but i dont know if i will have the willpower not to taste it, and I am afraid that if I do fall off the wagon I will stay eating carbs and in a years time i will be back posting in the 14 day induction section, 4 stone heavier. I guess that last sentance has made up my mind... Im not going to cheat.

        You did the best thing possible - come straight back to your plan. Just because you slipped up doesn't mean you have to give-up. Great job recognizing that and starting out fresh!!!
