Okay I screwed up. I went to the movies and had a couple handfulls of butter popcorn and about a pack of reeses pieces. I really tried not to I brought diet soda and apples and low fat popcorn. Im so irritated with myself. How do I log this? I still have food to eat for today but Im so disgusted with myself that I dont want to. Any suggestions...??? count it as all my starches and fat?

Nope.. since neither is on our plan, you own up to it and count it as a "weak moment"...

Or you just skip that part at the next WI....

Don't feel bad BransGirl, it has been a nonstop starch party for me this week. It just seems like my body is just craving sweets and salt....ugh. I have gained 2lbs since Monday, talk about Disgusted!! Oh well, today is a new day, I guess I just have to try my best to knock these two lbs off me, so much for being down 40lbs by my Bday...ugh.

Yep youre both right. I drank a ton af water last night and ate my veggies and protien. It could have been worse. New Day Today.

That's the way to think about it!!

Movies are my biggest weakness so I'm glad we don't go very often..

I simply MUST have popcorn and not that namby-pamby reduced fat/salt stuff..

We probably see a movie once every couple of months, so while I feel guilty, I don't feel THAT guilty...

So true, and there could be a lot worse cheat foods than Popcorn and Reeses Pieces. At least with the Resses Pieces you got some protein.

As for starch cravings, I spent last week on basically a 5 day binge.
I will readily admit my body felt good after all that sugar and carbs. It felt like after I came off of it. It was worse than caffiene withdrawl.

The bottom line is we're all not always going to be POP. Chalk the slip-up to experience. If anything it might be good for the body to cheat sometimes. At least that was the unofficial advice I got from COD manager.
