did I just mess up?
 
I'm 12 days in to IP I have been very strict with this plan.

Today I was at a friends house, and she offered me a coffee, which I said ok to, and she poured me a cup and then put in 1tsp of sugar. as that is my usual.

Is this going to mess me up? I feel bad because I should have told her no to the sugar.

Will drinking more water today help flush that out? or did I mess up big time?:(

Thanks Krystal

You will be fine. If you have not had a restricted today, replace it with a non restricted.
Continue on otherwise.

The best thing to do is just start fresh and don't stress about it. It may set you back a little, but worse would be giving in to it again, or giving up. You don't sound like that's where you are at mentally so just finish out your day 100% OP, and treat tomorrow like a new day.

Water won't flush it out, you just have to push forward.

Thanks so much scorbett!:) that's reassuring, the 12 days I have been OP and Have been strict with myself, I have to get used to saying No sugar next time I'm at a friend visiting, thank goodness it was only 1 cup of coffee with sugar.

You're welcome :) It's hard when you first start, to know how to say "no" to things without getting odd reactions from people. But it DOES get easier! The first time I had coffee with my SIL after starting, she automatically poured my usual "coffeemate with a splash of coffee". I felt bad having to pass and pour myself a fresh cup, and she definitely gave me a look when I drank it black...but now she LIKES setting my coffee aside because she knows she's helping my success!
