What a mess!
How - too easily only took one British Jelly Baby - the sugar hit my blood like I imagine heroin might, my addiction instantly ignited I craved and ate more. My resolve just melted like a chocolate fire guard!
Why - I missed meals on the day of travelling ~ unplanned, I went on holiday (vacation) with my children & grandchildren for 4 nights my husband was too busy to go with us.
Result - shame faced absence from you all here, 2 weeks of ridiculous eating. Weight gain of 7.2lbs.
Action plan - back to basics get into ketosis then become fat adapted and once my appetite is reduced back to IF.
I apologise to you all.
hugs & love ~ hope you all did better than me.

Joanna It’s okay, your a human. Your back here for a reason. Try not to let it go to long next time😬 Your doing well, love yourself.

Not feeling very human 😱I had to de-sugar the house last night, my hasband’s Office will be the new place for me to avoid as I sent it all with him this morning. What worries me more than the scales (I know Keto works) is my head ~ I caved big time without being able to stop myself. Now I need to get my Mojo back! No Eggs in the house yikes must get out to the shops fast.

Joanna Curious to know if you would have to go through adaptation again ? In my mind that was terrible and the thought of having to go through it again stops me in my tracks at one day of carb forgiveness.

badmojomn yes and boy do I feel sick coming off the sugar today! 🤢🤢🤢🤢 worse than first time...... but then I have consumed beyond my old lifestyle so serves me right. Do not do this.

I did the same think over Easter...told myself, its 1 day, it's a holiday. What a mistake. Woke Monday feeling awful. Its taken me til today (Friday) to get back to feeling good. I'm going to really think hard before going off the keto train again.

It’s ok. You know what to do. You will get right back to health again.

Actually I always considered myself an addict. Becuase I would binge eat on crazy stuff in amounts you wouldn’t believe. My stomach like a bottomless pit and no self control at all! But now I think I am not a true addict because I ha e planned days of eating off plan and I don’t go nuts and I have control. I don’t eat one muffin and then go crazy and have to eat ten. I eat four squares of chocolate and easily stop with no problems. But I have read people with true food addiction cannot go off plan and have to stick to their “bright lines” which I learned about and they were very useful. It since I can have a day here and there, not too often 😉 where I skip my bright lines, I cannot be a true food addict. So I’m happy for me, elated! But my heart goes out to others who are addicts. I understand that you can’t take a day off.
