I slipped up today...BUT I am not giving up. I didn't go way overboard but I know it was something I shouldn't eat. I have been thinking\ about the why since, generally their is some reason for slip ups. I did it because I didn't feel like taking the extra effort. I didn't feel like waiting to get home to eat something that I probable would have enjoyed more. Maybe I was being lazy but I really was in a hurry and wanted to eat to get it over with. How very strange. I wasn't really hungry per say but the food was right in front of me so I started by taking a bite, then nibbling than eating half a plate of deep fat fried shrimp. So, now I have a headache, and now I feel crummy, and now my blood sugars are up. I will save this journal entry to remind myself that I am human, to remind myself that I still have a long way to go to conquer my food demon, and to remind myself that I now have a great group of people who really understand not just the atkins diet, or any diet for that matter, but who really understand what it means to have a problem with food. I am so fortunate to have you all for such wonderful support.
