  • I am such a brat!

    Wow, I didn't realize how bratty I can be!

    This past week I have totally gone off program with my eating. Why? Because I wanted to. That's it- I just wanted to! No big issues in my life, nothing bad happened. I just wanted my "old" foods and lots of them. I didn't care how bad they made me feel. I didn't care about all the hard work of the previous weeks that I just threw out the window. All I cared about was selfishly doing what I wanted to do and that was eat anything that had nothing to do with Atkins!

    And let me tell you, I feel really crappy about it right now. I am so mad at myself! Why the heck did I sabotage myself? Things were going so well. I felt really good, had lots of energy and I just completed a couple of challenges that should have kept me motivated.

    Now my stomach hurts and I don't like this feeling. All the processed foods and drinks I had didn't taste as good as I remembered. And I definitely don't like the gross feeling I have and the puffiness in my hands and feet from all the salt and junk.

    I cannot do this anymore! I really enjoyed the way I felt when I was eating the Atkins way. I can't let this sideline me. I have to get up in the morning and get right back on Atkins. Even with Thanksgiving this week, I am recommitting myself to this way of life.

    I am sorry for this rant. I am just so upset with myself right now and needed to get it off my chest and come clean before I went to bed.

    Thanks for listening!

      Well, the important thing is that you are recommited and will get right back on track.

      Next time you are tempted, remember how you felt when you did this. Is it worth it?

      Good luck...you can do it!

        Feeling better this morning, although still puffy. I am looking forward to getting back on track.

        Atkinsgal: You're so right. Choices do have consequences and I totally take full responsibility for the bad choices I made. Now to continue on with the correct choices that will help me to get where I want to be.

        Whatsername: Thanks so much for your response. Yes, I will remember the feeling very well the next time I'm tempted to cheat. Great job on your success! Our stats are similar and I would love to get where you are some day. I will keep on going!!
