Re: a question about cheating??

I want to bet. It would be based on statistics though. Maybe some people can do a few things. But most of us, like me, started in the obese category - we are the ones who have destroyed our ability to deal with carbs. We are the ones who need to be in this study. Yes there are people here who do not belong in the category becasue they are not really doing the diet but those are not the ones I am referring too. They are just hanging around here because they love us so much. God Bless them .

Just take a stroll in the Second Time Around Club... By far, the most common reason for failing on this diet once is That First Cheat. There are 3 common outcomes of the first cheat - 1) completely going off the tracks pretty much immediately, 2) being perfectly fine, going right back on the diet (not that common), and 3) sorta getting back on track, but then being able to justify the next cheat ("Oh well, I was fine the first time I went off-plan. Clearly my body can take it..."). I fell victim to the 3rd outcome.

Yes, I had already covered the part about carb / sugar addictions in my first post and that it could lead to uncontrollable binge eating lasting days on end.

Liv you are right about those addictions that just one bite can knock you off track, it happened to me. Now I am extremly careful what I eat and read every lable. I eat only "Real Food", no bars, shakes, etc.
