So my hubby really wanted to go out and have a nice dinner and blow some cash. So we went to this buffet place that we've been to a couple times before with good food. I was behaving myself until about halfway through, and then i thought screw it. for one night we're gonna actually celebrate a holiday instead of worry about how it will fit into the budget or anything else. Good thing i did a **** of a workout class before going there.... So DH thought he would try eating a few carbs to see if he would feel any of the nasty effects i was telling him about. this after he sees me grab 4 strawberries and a small piece of banana cream pie (after the 4 or 5 big beef ribs, chunk of pork and chunk of salmon). He didn't think our new WOE was having any effect on him...of course he is not drinking hardly any water at all despite my reminding him or going to exercise either. so i figured my indulgence was gonna make me feel horrid, small though it was. And to my great surprise he comes back to the table with a dinner plate mounded full of various types of desserts. i said to him 'are you trying to make yourself hurl??? there's no way you'll get through that without being very sick!'. so he eats half the plate and of course starts feeling very queasy, and sweating...i said you better go grab some meat to even that out....and you better stop at half of the plate of desserts or the night is gonna be real bad for you... Suffice to say now he sees that the new WOe really is having an effect since he never would've noticed the yucky feeling before this. We're going right back on Induction right now after this little experiment. I'm going to the gym for a hard workout everyday this week and am upping my water intake even more tonight now and the rest of the week. it doesn't help that i gained 4 pounds on sunday due to my TOM looming near and too much sodium that day..Grr...Although this time around i seem to be able to much better pinpoint the cravings i get around my TOM. anyway, we're both back to strict induction as of right now
and he is now a firm believer in the diet and jumping in with motivation of his own now
That alone was worth the gain of a couple pounds i may get by morning!
