X-Post Fell off the wagon today, bad

Well, I have been living mostly sugar free for almost two years (I started when DH got his sleeve 12/11), but today, I gave into temptation big time. I saw someone with a fabulous looking gourmet cupcake from a shop near the skating rink, and...well I ate one. Not a mini one, but a regular sized, loaded with sugar, decadent cupcake. Oh boy, was it delicious, but, I felt like crap about 10 minutes later. I knew it would make me feel like crap, but I ate it anyway.

I know that when you eat healthy and your body gets used to being fed with high quality food, and then you feed it garbage, it will not be happy. Lesson learned. Now, if Quest could just come up with a red velvet bar....

Ugh! BTDT. Hang in there!

Linda, I totally understand. Okay, get back on that wagon...and remember how it made you feel later before giving in again. :) And find a treat you can have in it's place.

First of all - you are to be commended for going 2 years without giving into temptation!

It's about moderation, not deprivation.  You SHOULD be able to have a treat, once in awhile.  In that case, I probably would have broken off part of it, ate it and put the rest away/thrown away.  But, I'm not a sweets eater and I can easily do that.  Give me a bag of chips and - watch out!

Back on the wagon today - remember how it made you feel.  

You're human - we've all BTDT like Gina said.
