Lesson learned - huh?

In all honesty - take this as a learning situation...now you know that you can NOT eat like that. You are one who's body converts carbs almost immediately and your body holds on to them - turning them into fat (not saying you gained 20 pounds of fat - but def. saying it's a possibility if you continued to eat like that). Does that suck? Heck yeah it does, but now that you know that you CAN'T eat junk food, or else your body will become fat (which I assume you don't want) then you need to eat the way that will make your body become thin.

You know that - in the past - eating like that is what got you up to your highest weight in the first place...eating the atkins way - whole foods - no junk, no sweets - etc - that keeps you losing weight to get to your ideal weight.

Why would you do to yourself something like that when you know that that is how you got to that unhappy weight in the first place?

I'm not yelling at you at all - but look at it more like this:
Doing A. (eating junk food) made me unhappy & fat.
Doing B. (eating atkins/healthy whole foods) will make me happy & thin.

It's not about willpower - it's about knowledge. Knowing that "Hey - if I eat chips and sweets I will get fat. period." and that "If I eat healthy natural fats - low carbs - and my vegees, I will lose weight and be happy." period.

It's as simple as that.

You are FABULOUS for getting right back on track and not letting this slip-up ruin everything you've worked for.

Good luck!!!
