has started again!!
oops! :sign0007:Had a big family "do" last night, with associated family politics etc. (namely my sister....see umpteen other threads on that one!) In my total panic at anticipating this do I ate so much ka-ka before hand (flapjack etc). :whoopass:However, after many tears and berating myself detetmined to be as good as I could at the party.arty0016:
This was not to be, so instead of being angry and calling myself names, today I am strangely calm about it all. I ate al sorts of things, but mainly raw veg and hummus. There was also some crab, salmon, a few olives and TBH some home made totally amazing BF gateaux.:drool: The only LL principle that didnt slip was the water, oddly enough. I was the elected driver, (hmmmm why was that I wonder??)arty0036: I just drank mineral water all night.
This am I expected to feel so miserable but I dont. I do regret what I did, but it was an occasion that is unlikely to be repeated. (my Dad's birthday,pretty ancient and ill health looming, poss wont want another party like this again.) I remember a conversation our LLC had with us about the fact that some food should be regarded instead of a treat, as an occasional food, to be eaten on an occasion. It made a lot on sense to me. Whilst I am aware that it was not aimed at those of us currently ss-ing, it did hit home and I think it was one of those moments when certain things suddenly made sense! (Cerulean - one of your lightbulbs I think.)
Instead of feeling low and down about my lapse today, I feel great and more positive than I have in ages. MY tum is rumbling hugely now, and OH has made toast (mmmm the smell) but I dont actually want to eat???
I am about to email my LLC to tell her what has happened so I dont have to do audible explanations in group at my next WI. (I kind of expect a ticking off, but thats her job!!)
One question, any idea of the average time to return to ketosis, and as my WI is not until Thurs eve, do you think there might be any chance of a small loss this week? (Just wondered....)
Wish me luck on my journey back from the dark side, wont you??:sign0151:
