  • How bad did I mess up??

    so my sister brings in a bottle of regular coke..ugh!! I am 2 weeks and 1 day since I started this NWOL and I have decided to stay on induction because I have much weight to lose..anyways she leaves the stupid coke there, I see it at breakfast and I see it for lunch and I see it for diner and in between, I just stare at it until I snapped and grabbed a small cup and put half of it in it..it was sooooooooooooooo good but now I feel soooooooooooooooo bad how bad is this going to set me back? I should have my sister for bringing that stuff in here.

    Dump it in the toilet NOW. That is where that stuff belongs. Don't wait another minute. You should not have those kind of temptations around. Take action - don't blame your sister.
    How much did it set you back? I don't know. All you can do right now is to continue.

      It is hers, she is coming for diner tonight so I can't dump it..I have been able to stay away from rice and candy but I guess I gotta be stronger than the coke.

        you seriously need to declare your home a coke free zone, especially if it is a weakness. It is evil it is tempting... you are not alone. RESIST the temptation.

          Actually, Coke is great for cleaning rust stains in the toilet! And that's about all it's good for, unfortunately.

            Don't beat yourself up over it...but don't forget it either

            None of us are perfect, so just accept that you slipped up and move on. If you dwell on it, you will discourage yourself from continuing this WOE.

            Obviously, you can't help having the stuff there if it belongs to someone else, but I would recommend maybe having an alternative there...like a diet soda sweetened with Splenda...if it is possible. Ask your sis if she would mind keeping the Coke away from your house, at least until you feel okay being around it without wanting it.

            Keep telling yourself that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. I have literally had to say it out loud to myself!

              Liv is right: Personal responsibility; otherwise, you'll continue blaming other people. Everyone is free to choose a way of eating you chose yours, your sister chose hers.
              My family does the saaaaame thing. It's annoying when I'm tempted to cheat, but you have to control yourself.
              How badly will this set you back? It may stall you, it may not. It just depends on your body...it may also give you the big D, so have a bathroom close by at all times. Just remember that your next bite should be atkins friendly

                Thank you all and you are right, I will always be surrounded by food that are not good for me..should I blame the supermarkets? hahaha nope. So yeah I got weak, but now I know what happens when I drank that coke it felt soo good goind down but after it was over, I started to think ...I can't do that again, or I will get the 18 lbs I already lost plus go back to my old cycle, so I came here to read your guys posts and see more before/after photos, prepared the best atkins friendly meal and got back on that horse more determined than ever. =D
