Hello
I've been SS for 9 weeks, but this week I had some proper food one evening. It was my hubbies b'day and he & the kids had a chinese + choccy cake. I had a very small portion of chicken breast and spinach (and it was lovely!). Before everyone says that I should have been strong and made an excuse not to eat, I didn't really feel that I could. My kids are only 7, and I really didn't want to lie to them again about why mummy couldn't eat again. I want them to grow up with a healthy relationship with food, rather than being a screw up like me!
Anyway, it seems like it's given me a boost as the loss this week was 5lb rather than the 2-3 that I usually have, so that's a bonus, but yesterday I had an awfully upset tummy. Is this a side effect of eating food for the first time in a while, or the other thing I'd thought of was that it could be too much sweetner tabs in tea etc?
Anybody have any answers?
Thanks
