I know BUT I made you smile so my job is done for the night :)

Bella!!!

I am so glad you didn't do it. Given you know what it is like, ask your friend is she will make you ONE piece for your first cheat day on phase 4. It will give you something to work towards.

NOW, GET... OVER... IT!! :) (said in the most loving way)

You keep thinking you are losing slowly. YOU ARE NOT! You are losing at the recommended healthy rate of 2 to 3 pounds a week. You are doing great and you will sustain the loses that come like these.

Maybe you can do better, maybe not. You will not do better by eating carrot cake. You might do better by adding a fourth packet and making sure you are getting a few restricted packets a week since you are exercising so regularly.

Now stop stressing yourself out and setting yourself up for sabotage by worrying about what you don't have instead of rejoicing in what you do.

YOU HAVE LOST 15 pounds in just 6 weeks! WOO HOOO!!!

:hug:

I recommend in the future that you throw out the cake, I'm sure that hubby would understand with what you are dealing with when it's there taunting you.

As I mentioned before as well, and Wuv mentions all the time. STAY AWAY FROM YOUR SCALE. I have been stress free with the diet ever since I stopped weighing myself, you can do it. I know you can. Set a goal to not weigh yourself for 1 week and see what happens.

I say we all challenge Bella to do so!!!!!!

(I have unlimited long distance calling as well, if you need a call, msg me)

I was being good, because Wuv2b got after me, but I was feeling confident this morning and you are right, it brought me down faster than, hmmmm, don't have a catchy analogy. I would have already quit this diet if it wasn't for the support here, it is the most awesome place to come. So, much knowledge here too. I think the other thing that bothers me is that I think my coach thinks I cheat (she never says that, but she said one time that other clients with my losses cheated, soooooooooo, I could be reading more into it) With that said I was hoping for a big whoosh friday, so she would know I wasn't cheating, but there I go trying to please some else instead of me. This is suppose to be all about me. me. me!

Now I just want to cry! :( I hated going for weigh in because my coach had this subtle way of making me thinking I just hadn't done enough. LOVED IP, hated going for weigh in. I actually weighed on my own every morning before seeing my coach. I used my coach for measuring, food, and for the occasional "woo hoo, look at you go!".

Keep your journal, be true to you (it is what matters in the end), and if your coach keeps making you feel like you cheat when you know you don't tell her to keep it to herself because it isn't like that for everyone!

(if you care to know how I know small losses are ok, I got so sick of my coach telling me I was off target, I asked Dr Tran personally. :) He gave me a great response and was very encouraging of my 2 pound loss. )

I love Toby. That will be my theme song.

WOW. now I am encouraged!

Put it in the freezer or the trash.

See Bella, I have lots of great things for you!...keeping you distracted for ALL that NEGATIVITY you got going on!!

Don't do it! 1 piece of cake is not worth going through the withdraw period (you remember, the massive carb cravings, not feeling so hot, cranky and maybe even headaches) - nothing is worth that process all over again.

My coach was thrilled with my 2.3 loss this week. I lucked out when I went to that clinic without knowing anything about it. Hey, we could have a Toby Keith subform too! Words of wisdom from Toby.
