| Get rid of them. Put them out in the car, or get someone to hide them, or put them in the freezer, or give them away, but get rid of them!! Some temptations are too strong when you can smell them and those things have a strong enough smell even if you don't open them!  Always eat your veggies first!LCE member since March 2002  |

 I have no willpower today... I just caved in and ate some This Mints. I gave the rest away. Now I get to feel like crap all day. It will take me forever to get back into Ketosis... Grrrrr! My own damn fault. Shame on me. |

| Wolfman, That happens to me ALL the time. I think I'm crazy. But for me, I'm always eating TV dinners enjoying the corn mixed in with the mashed potatoes. Its like I totally forget I cant have it then BAM...I'm like, "Oh my God, I just ruined everything!!!" But then I realize its a dream, but it still freaks me out!! So no, you arent the only one!!

| so are there any dream experts out there? why do we do this?? just b/c we're so disciplined during the day, and then "letting go" at nite?? or maybe it's just b/c we think about carbs so much during the day (counting, etc) ... ? very interesting though!  Atkins since 1/6/04 152/143/130 |

| Thanks everybody for the replies. I guess I'm semi-normal I do believe its because we (some of us) obsess most of the day (I know I do) on carbs. So our mind likes to let lose or something while we dream. Oh well... Some company will come out with a product for "Low Carb Dreams..." Wolfman Restarted Atkins 1-02-04 202/188/175 |
