Off Plan eating taught me a lesson

Posted 06-02-2008 at 02:42 PM by Lisa R

I have been happy with my choices so far with my changes in woe and doing good, well fairly good with the cravings. But the other day a friend talked about french fries and I had realized how long it had been since I had ate any. I wondered if they were as good as I remembered and my friend talked about. Well I didn't run right out and buy some than, nor did I obsses over them but I did think that they were something I wanted to have and wanted to plan an off plan eating time for where I wouldn't have any guilt over eating them. Well I did and ate the french fries only to realize they weren't as good as the old days and I am happy to say that I ate them now as I can use it as an experience to myself that I really am not missing out on anything when I might think I am. I can also thank the low carb website and others for their articles, thoughts, and blogs on things like off plan eating, and a useless thing as guilt. I have been able to turn what would have been a self-esteem crushing act into a simple lesson. Thanks everyone

    It's amazing how stuff we used to love just isn't as good as we remember. (Except for chocolate!)

    So now you know, if you ever plan a cheat again, it won't be french fries!

    And, let's save the guilt for important things, not for what we eat. Sure makes life better.

    I have often found this to be true for me. Something that I just remembered LOVING, when eating after being LC a long time, either doesn't taste that great or sometimes, is downright yucky. Thank goodness for changing tastes!

    I even found that diet sodas, when you haven't had one for weeks, taste really, really sweet, and are not all that enjoyable anymore.

    Great job! Like Nita, I can say the same, things don't taste as good...except chocolate. But good health is more important than chocolate.....right?!
