Hi

I've been trying to follow a low carb diet and was doing really well until I went out for a meal with some non diabetic friends last night!
They persuaded me that one meal of naughtyness would not hurt! How wrong could they be!! lol
I went to the harvester and had piri piri chicken kebabs (quite good) but then ruined it by having chips!! AND 2 bread rolls off the salad cart AND a bl**dy great big sundae after!!

I have woken up this morning feeling like i've got a hangover and I feel like I did when I gave up smoking, except I REALLY REALLY WANT CHOCOLATE!!

I have now learned my lesson and hope to never fall of the wagon again cos I seriously cannot go through chocolate withdrawall again!!

My confession is now over!

Wow. That couldn't have happened on a worse day.

Everyone falls off the waggon once in a while, don't beat yourself up about it.
 
Never mind, onwards and upwards.

at least you felt a bit poo after it.

Remember that feeling next time you fancy a treat.

Feels good at the time though, doesn't it?!

I've been low carbing for a while now and I can't even manage a slice of bread now without my sugar levels rocketing. have to admit, it doesn't atop me breaking the rules every now and again!

I feel like I have a massive hangover too. I have a feeling mine is caused by the wine, not the carbs. Bleugh.

Enjoy your bank holiday! :)
 
Know what you mean. "Go on, one won't hurt you" is the most annoying thing I get, even from friends and relatives. They mean well, but they wouldn't say that to a recovering alcoholic or someone trying to give up smoking. I think of carb-laden treats in the same way for diabetics. It's not the "one" that hurts you TOO much, but what it can lead to. After all, if one didn't hurt yesterday, why would one hurt today? Dangerous for me as a reformed (nearly!) chocoholic
 
I'm possibly heading this way with a lot on my mind, thanks for the warning of the after effects! You may of just saved me from making things feel a whole lot worse!
 
I went out to a steam fair yesterday, had a Higgidy Pie, cheesy mash with ale and onion gravey, but was walking around so I stayed in the 4s afterwards, but the chinese we had because the chicken was still frozen was a different story. I feel a bit out of it today but not as bad as I would have if I had stayed in and eaten easter eggs all day. I feel bad about it, but Im not going to beat myself up about it.

Never say never Loopy, there's no perfection on this earth, just do the best you can, and move on.
 
It is trully amazing to me that by just having the tiny bit of forbidden stuff, how the craving for more goes on.

Best I just don't go there. :sick:
