Cheating with wine....
I knew I couldn't do it. My husband and I live in wine country in Northern California and we have wine every Fri and Sat. I thought maybe I could skip the Fri night during Phase 1, but since I had a bad day at work, I just couldn't do it. I've been pretty good all week I think. I definitely feel a difference in my mid section (although it doesn't show at all on the scale), I haven't had any starches at all. The only way I went off the diet was by accidentally eating something I shouldnt' have like beef jerky, the wrong peanut butter and too many SF cals. But I think I did good. So my question is, if I'm going to cheat with wine, is it better to drink it with something than alone? Usually we have chocolate with red wine, but I know I can't have that. Maybe some almonds might be good?
I have another question. I'm really surpried that I didn't lose anything at all in these 5 days because I'm really sure that I've lost something in my mid section. I don't care what the scale says as long as I fit into my clothes. But will it be harder for me to lose much weight because I already don't weight too much? I'm 114 right now and would like to get to at least 110, but preferably 105 (I'm petite). Is it going to be harder for me to lose even on the SBD Phase 1?
