Yesterday I decided to come off plan for a meal. I was thinking about this earlier and I've realised I've learned a few things about myself by doing this.
Firstly I realised I can make a sensible choice when choosing a meal. I can honestly say I enjoyed grilled chicken salad every bit as much as I would a big mac meal.
Secondly I realised that I can not return to drinking wine in the evening as it will always lead to me snacking. I chose to have a couple of glasses last night then I had a bag if crisps. I don't feel bad or angry as I've learned from it. Yes I will have a drink when it's a special occasion (yesterday was a family birthday and had folk at the house) but in my mind now it's a treat, not an ordinary occurrence and if it's once in a while then it's okay.
So back on it 100% today and I have been bloody lucky as so far seem to still be in ketosis. That's me now until 2nd week in Dec so the end is close.
