I am back from a few weeks of making not the best decisions. I have thought about this situation (probably too much) and have decided to just set my goals pretty low, keep it simple, and quit going off the deep end. I have a big, HUGE problem with all-or-nothing thinking... For now I am going to stick to good ol' Phase 2, not eat any processed/refined crap (which is the point of SBD, duh) and make myself walk and go to yoga classes at a minimum. I have found that I NEED this minimal exercise. Also I started taking some vitamins pretty regularly: multi/calcium + D/fish oil/glucosamine.
It is nice to be back to reading others' menus! It helps me plan
