Too many to count. Last one was a caramel pecan ice cream in waffle cone. On vacation.
Before ice cream was a bloody Mary. Note partner went to get a massage hence ice cream happened. I don't even like ice cream. To be followed by more booze. His jaw hurts so his father/doctor prescribed getting loaded. I had to be a good company you see.
That's why I can't move onto maintenence. Left to my own devices I'm an eating machine. I woke up today w a sugar hangover, that's how bad I've been, oh and the scale totally shows it. I have no idea how I didn't cheat those first 6 weeks. I feel like at this point I need something switched off in my brain, so that I only eat when I'm hungry and appropriate amounts. I fixed my body, but my brain is lagging behind.
You are not alone. Maybe just do Phase 1 for a week to get back on track, then try maintence again?
Hoo-ooo-ooo. . . . This is the voice of your past. SWITCH!
Good news: ketosis is back!!!! Only one day out of it and I felt like crap! I learned my cheating lesson. Never again. At least not until wedding cake tasting in October.

y'know I sometimes do and sometimes don't show up on the strip, but I have learned I can tell when ketosis stops because once my body does not have access to those extra fat calories, I CRASH. Exhausted and starving. Does everyone feel that bad when you drop "out"? Like it was the first 4-5 days?
If you're going to drink and get kicked out of ketosis anyhow, you better eat some carbs, or tomorrow you'll be one sick pup!
Thanks for the concern BROCOLA! I ended up having 3 Smirnoff Ice Light and 4 regular Mike's Hard Lemonade last night at Bluesfest. Didn't go off protocol in any other way...just drinks no food! Felt a bit rough this morning until I had a few glasses of water and then my IP vanilla shake. After that, felt ok...not sure whether I kicked myself out of ketosis. Been super good all day and will continue to be...hoping to have a good WI on Monday! Back on the horse!
PITA-ELLIE: Love your posts! Sounds like you're enjoying your vacay...good for you girl!! You've worked hard and deserve to let loose a little!

day 2 post trauma and still no ketosis how many more days? I usually get back into it in less than 24 hours post bad stuff. This time though I did have potatoes, bacon, fries and ice cream along side booze. Normaly its just alchohol. How many more days?
guys.....I just came through a 3 day bender.....ok well I was imaging myself eating everything I could get my hands on at my bridal shower...but the reality is I didn't...no time for that...so I had a few cheats on Saturday....Sunday was bad...and monday I had spinach dip and pita as the only meal of the day....good news....I wasn't as bad as I had anticipated, bad news I cheated on two more than the one day I had planned....today I am back on the wagon....it feels good...not hungry...I still feel the bread weighing me down though....not sure how it's going to affect the scale....but it felt really good to have a break from IP.
OKAY! I don't usually have to come here to the confessional thread, but it happened. Last night I went out to dinner with family from out of town and I had Chicken Roulade (baked chicken stuffed with spinach, broccoli and cheddar cheese - it was supposed to have a mushroom sauce on top, but I said NO WAY that). It didn't take me out of ketosis (how long can this take?) or at least I don't think so. I checked it right after, and then again this morning, and all was well! So there. It was great, and I don't feel bad (is that bad - LOL). But I got right back on track today.
ah jeez today was lame. it all started with a teaspoon of Edy's no sugar added Triple chocolate ice cream. 110 cals = 1/2cup I've been moody all day and that teaspoon turned into a cup. I can only image what the scale will do to me on Friday. It could be worse I know, but just I want this weight off so badly. Not sure why I'm so weak and keep sabotaging the results that I'm seeing! UGH
