[QUOTE="Fallgal, post: 595431, member: 92569"] The funny thing was, aside from a bit of inconvenience, I really didn't miss the carbs that much, or not nearly as much as I thought I would. That birthday ice cream started it all. Now I want *everything* that is carby (and I've had it!) I figure, "I've screwed up so much now, what's one more candy bar? or doughnut? or plate of pasta?" When I got that ice cream, I actually asked the lady if she had any sugar-free version. She said no, but that she's been getting requests for it. I felt like saying, "Then why don't you SELL IT?" ;) I guess because dummies like me then say, "Oh okay. I'll have the regular then." It wasn't even regular. It was a double scoop of gourmet ice cream. I went whole hog. Anyway, new day!!! I had Greek youghurt for lunch and some celery sticks with lower-carb peanut butter. I am planning on broiled fish and green beans for supper, and berries for dessert. I think I have to take this one meal at a time now. We're going food shopping tonight so I will get in a lot of my low-carb favs, veggies, Greek youghurt, eggs and the like. I also just went upstairs and sorted through a huge tub of clothes that no longer fit me last year. I realized that a few pieces would fit now, and that if I continue to low-carb, I will have a whole new wardrobe of nice clothes that I haven't been able to wear in years by the fall/winter! Death? Not a huge motivator. Fashion - now that's an incentive. :rolleyes: :p Thanks again, all! :) [/QUOTE]
