    Pure Torture

    I'm at my mom's today. Its my weekend to have my son. My brother and some friends are over watching the eagles game and its like a feeding frenzy here. Everyone is eating cheesesteaks and cheesefries and there is huge bags of chips and candy on the table. If I make it out of here today without breaking I'm golden. So far so good but damn is it hard to resist.

      I already ate before I got here. It's not that I'm hungry it's just that everything looks sooo damn good. I'm not going to give in to my inner fat guy though. I'll make it through this and I'll feel amazing afterward.

                Well done
                Each time it gets easier, so keep on keeping on!
                It was a good strategy to eat beforehand so you could tell yourself - 'I am not hungry' and quiet any inner voices telling you to eat what you shouldn't.
                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!

                      Fantastic Bigtim!!! You did really really well... and believe me, it definitely gets easier.
                      Being prepared with things you can eat is the way to go. Also... love your description of a "feeding frenzy"... Think of that in negative terms... like a bunch of swine fighting over the trough... the visual might help keep you as "on track" as you've been so far.

                      Again... congrats!
