hey hun , I am really sorry to hear that you havent been getting on , a baby is so very life changing that it is easy to forget who 'you ' really are , and relationships change so much after children .
I have had nights off plan before and I personally havent struggled to get back on track ( although if you drink too much a hangover can make it much more difficult as you just crave carbs to make you feel better !!!) but everyone is different . I know you dont want to ruin all your hard work , which you wont if you only have 1 evening off , but I am sure your realtionship is the most important thing here and I personally would do it , and enjoy it

Katie do you think if I have 3 bars instead of shakes today I'll be out of ketosis? Xx

I think you should go out and enjoy yourselves, as this is about your relationship etc, and think that's a lot more important that Exante, plus your little un needs a happy mummy and daddy too

I think it would take a little bit more than just 3 bars to take you out of ketosis, depending on how carb sensitive you are. A good old fashioned sandwich will do take you out of it

Thanks Hun yeah goin to have a nice sandwich before I go out I've got butterflies I've not been out in that long ha ha xx

I'm with the others - get out and enjoy yourself, we'll be here to get you back on track tomorrow if you need any encouragement!
Have a great time!!! x

Yes go out and enjoy yourself. I had one night off and got straight back on to the diet the next day. Its hard work being a parent and you deserve a night off.

Enjoy x

Hey Kel
Be careful sometimes it takes a while to get out of ketosis
I'd recommend carbs for brekkie/lunch as well as later to be safe
But yeah go have fun you just have to tell yourself you have no choice you have to get straight back on TS the next day and be firm with yourself even if you have a hangover
A day off will be fine as long as it's only a day and doesn't turn into a week or doesn't happen every weekend
But yes do it and make sure you gave a good time

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

I hope you did go out ...
And are having lots of fun
See ya tomorrow
Marge

Well guys I went out we had fun were home although I've eaten much more than I expected I'm all ready for back on plan tomorrow! Thought I'd have been way more drunk but I've paced myself an I'm just tipsy ( oh is in bed though lol ) so I think now I'm not going to weigh in till a week Monday just so I don't get disheartened xx

glad you had a great time , brill idea about not weighing for a while , I always gain alot when I eat but then it goes just as quickly too
