Question? I slipped up!

[Keke519]

Hello Everyone,

Today was day three for me and I slipped up a little. I was giving my daughter some skittles and before I knew it I had popped some in my mouth. I wasn't even thinking! Also I was making a pasta dish for my family and when I thought the rotini was done, I ate a piece to make sure it was tender. I am so used to doing it, that once again I wasn't even thinking. My first two days went very well and I only had 16 carbs both days. I know that it is very important that you follow the rules of induction, so I want to know if 5-6 skittles and one piece of pasta is enough to erase the progress that I have already made? Using fitday I estimated that my total carb count for today including the candy (but not the pasta) was exactly 20, so for dinner I didn't have any veggies only meat.

EAT YOUR VEGGIES!

It's hard to tell what will mess someone up. I don't know how many grams of carbohydrates are in six skittles and one piece of pasta. Stay on track with induction, and don't deprive yourself of the healthy foods that are neccessary. Continue on tomorrow as day 4.

Old habits die hard. Even now, 8 months in, I still have to catch myself from licking my finger when I cook something non-legal!
