No luck involved here, just time, patience, and faith in the program. You can do it! Only a day or two to go and this'll all be a memory. :yes

I turned down pizza today at lunch. Something I normally would have gorged myself on AND WOULD TRIGGER OTHER BAD FOOD S FOR ME LIKE SUGARS ARGH I WAS SUCH A SUGAR ADICT!!!!!!. It had sauges and peperoni on it. and you know I cant see the lable on these processed meat items so TODAY i choose not to eat it at all. besides it was proberly filled with sodium and unnecceassary hidden carbs!!!! YEAH FOR ME

Do you realize how important it is that you made this connection?!
Good for you!!! :joy
We all have SO much power over what we put in our mouths, and you just proved to yourself that you are the one in control here, not the food!

I call this 'conscious eating'...where you stop and think about your food choice, and make your decision according to whether it's included in the plan, and not because you were happy/sad/pressured by co-workers.

AWESOME job...well done! :icondance

Just keep doing what you're doing. The bad feeling will be over soon and then you'll feel FANTASTIC!!! Trust myself and everyone on here. It is really amazing. :hug

Be cautious about pickles and sardines as they contain a lot of salt, which causes fluid retention. It's important to read lables. Talk about so called "Franken food", the body was never meant to digest the the quanity of sodium found in these and many foods like them. It's contradictory to say, "avoid processed foods" and then to risk damage to heart, kidneys and other ogans by consuming large amounts of salt. A can of sardines, for example will sometimes give you more salt than the FDA reccomends on one whole day!
Again,

Hope this helps,

quick update during working hours

Last night was torture because I had the migrain of the century!!!! But I did not I repeate DID NOT GO OFF THE PLAN. and you know what after 3 hours alot of ice packs and a massage to my neck I was ok.

This morning I feel really good. I hope not to jinx it!! (seenikrun knocks on wood 50 times). I already have drank 1 1/2 quarts of water. I will be drinking more all day.

I had chicken with a cup of veggies and a piece of cheese for breakfast. Lunch is going to be a hamburger pattie 100 percent beef no fillers with an omlette and a cup of veggies.

PS im peeing every half hour LOL. Its good though because the bathroom is upstairs and its excersise just getting there LOL

Thanks again for your support
much love,

I'm so sorry that you have migrains! My sister gets those occasionally and it's awful to see her like that. Hopefully the change in diet combined with having a properly hydrated body will be a new start for you and those will be a memory.

Every time you pee just think of it as toxins being flushed out of your body! That's what I did and still do!

Out with the bad, in with the good! lol

Hope you have a great day!

I had what had to be the worst induction flue ever...and it lasted for a week and a half. I also had migranes, to the point where I couldn't lift my head off the desk. I was nauseous, would shake all the time, and really thought I was dying.... :yikes

Like other have suggested I ate protein snacks. I lived off of nuked pepperoni for the first three weeks. I would carry it around in a baggie at school (I am a teacher)...and often got weird looks. But, that was better than giving into the evil vending machine and all of its junk.

I would recommend staying away from the shakes and frakenfoods. I have found they only make me crave things I don't really want.

Exercise helped me a lot. Once I started exercising my appetite dropped off and my energy reved up. It can make a world of differencee.

Happy low carbing!!

Jlkhollins, YIKES a week and a half. I sure hope mine dont last that long ( seenikrun prays they dont last that long)

So last night and the night before I had these real dreams that I was at the dinner and I ordered cake. Thank god it was a dream. but i had to keep waking myself up during the night becuase it seemed so real & I thought I had eaten those things. (EVEN THOUGH THAT STUFF IS NOT IN THE HOUSE).

Dose anyone else have this?? I'm a weird one I know!
