On day 6 today, had done really well up till now then felt really run down all day, made hubby & kids pasta & sauce and there was some left and I ate it I don't know why it didn't even taste of anything! What do I do now? Should I just give up?

Dear Rose

STOP IT! Yes....stop doing guilty!

You tripped up. That's done. It's over. Just get back on plan and keep going.

I find it helpful to start my shake before cooking/serving others if I might be tempted. I also try to ensure I eat/drink when others are eating so its still sociable.

I don't go to the supermarket unless I'm feeling full.

Another useful strategy is scraping the plates into the bin immediately - just doing anything that takes that moment away.

I've found it helpful to think about this phase as training. Eating the leftovers is not a habit that will help us at goal. So it's time to train ourselves now not to do it. My bad habit was tasting as I cooked. I had no idea until I stopped how much I ate whilst 'tasting' spicing/flavours. 5 weeks in I am still finding myself moving to do it. So making it automatic not to take a teaspoon here and there will take a while!

So, head up and smile back on - and you'll make great progress!

No never give up hun,keep going,you are doing great as you have already recognised what you did wrong,now you have dealt with it dont look back and move on.
It will all be worth it in the end you'll see. I do the same as you, as soon as I eat summat I beat myself up about it,but just keep moving and looking foreward x
