30 Days into Round 3, my first real cheat. And all I can do is laugh.

Rate this Entry
So, I cheated yesterday. In a big way. A big, huge, large cheat. The reason/excuse doesn't matter. The food I ate doesn't matter. What matters is: I cheated.

The strange part? I feel really good today. I gained almost three pounds over night. I only have 8 injections left. But sometimes you just have to stop worrying. I made my choice and now I'm living with it. And for some reason, I woke up laughing. No clue why. I think maybe I was much more stressed than even I'd realized. I'm not disappointed. I knew a big gain would come. I made my choice. So weird that I feel this way. I cheated one time by eating an extra apple and it completely freaked me out. This? It is what it is. So, that is a little weird (for me), but all I can do is keep my head up and move forward!

    Nice to hear you're less stressed. I'd be very interested in knowing how long it will take you to drop the 3 lbs. It'll help me determine if it's worth it to cheat. A mom of little ones on this sight had a glass of wine to keep her sanity and was glad she did it. If I didn't have to check in with my doctor every single day I'd feel freer to experiment, but he makes me tell him what I ate when I gain more than .4 lbs. in a day. However, I did lose 25 lbs. with his help last round, so that accountability really paid off.

    The short answer is no. The cheating is never worth it. While I'm in a completely weird mood today, I'm sure that the time will come (sooner rather than later) that I'll be annoyed that I allowed myself to not only cheat, but set myself back three pounds - especially so close to the end of p2 when the likelihood is that it won't drop back off. I'm sure I'll be pissed if/when I end this round a mere 5 pounds below my LIW from last round. When you look at it that way, enduring 40 days hardly seems worth it.

    It is what it is. If you are going to cheat, might as well enjoy it! Don't beat yourself up now or at the end.
