A blizzard tonigjt it was too sweet and I should have stopped eating it but I didn't. ..oh well at least it wasn't the start of a binge and I'm off to log it.3

I am definitely wanting to do this woe for life as I feel better eating like this, but I tend to have binge attacks and eat everything in sight (had one of these yesterday) have decided that I know these are going to happen but from now on I will be logging them so I am accountable - I do hope one day that they will stop happening but until they do I will acknowledge them and move on3

A Snickers bar... and then another. I wasn't even hungry and it didn't even taste that good. 126 carbs, 94 sugar.
I suppose I was chasing the memory of how it made me feel, I had plenty of them as a child. I'm pleading temporary insanity due to acute boredom.

When I'm at the check out counter now I will look at all the chocolate bars (that I used to buy and eat on the way home, or board in my dresser so no one knew!) and laugh to myself! I didn't see them as fuel before LCHF, and I certainly don't now! I'm not sure how I viewed them before, but it was an addiction there is no doubt!
Like a drug addict, walking through a store with their favorite options on display! I'm so glad I can laugh and move on now!7 -

I'm in that same boat. There was never a shopping trip without a candy bar and a soda on the way home. Or sometimes...those cinnamon mini doughnuts - and not just a pack of 6 but a family size bag. Half would be gone before I drove the 10 miles home. No more of that. It was a social thing or "just something I did" or "I deserve a treat". Now it's "why would I put that in my body when I feel so good without it?"6 -

I do this. So I don't make them. They are too yummy.3 -
the smoked turkey leg at the fair. Granted very few carbs - but holy sodium and calories LOL2

I don't care what anyone says, there IS such a thing as food addiction. I was a straight up, no-joke, chocoholic. I ate it until it was all gone or I got sick. Every. Time. I craved it. I couldn't think about anything but the next time I was going to get it, and you'd better not ask for a bite of my fix even if there's a whole bag. I would hide in another room from everyone else and eat it and hide the wrappers.7 -
I think we can all agree that as much as we enjoy this woe slip ups will happen. We will all have days where we eat to many carbs and that's OK!! It's shaking it off and getting right back on track that's important. We are all human and let's face it carbs do taste good they just do bad things to our bodies...5

Literally falling off the wagon - it's the booze, every time. Two weeks ago was the last time. I get on periodic down turns and it stalls all the work. Good news is I'm in a dry spell for now. There's nothing in the house, so I'm feeling good.5

yep, in memory of my dearly departed fat bombs, i will now restrain myself from replacing them...until a proper period has passed. they are just too good. im just relegating myself to perusing recipes and drooling until i feel i can splurge on them again. really liking the looks of maple walnut fudge....OH MAN HELP MEEEEE!!1

Ice cream for me too. I had a soup bowl of it. It was last week... I felt pretty yucky the next day.
...Actually, yesterday I had too much cheese. A really nice swiss cheese. Mmmmmmm.Ice cream. A few weeks ago. Lots and lots of ice cream...in the middle of the night...when no one was watching...SuperCarLori wrote: »*ahem* the rest of the batch of fat bombs.
I started making my fat bombs really small since I found I would eat too many. It sort of worked. Kind of. LOL2 -
It's such a relief to see that I'm not the only one that had a "fall off the wagon" day yesterday! Yesterday afternoon I got random anxiety that triggered a binge that lasted ,off and on, till bed time. Some was low carb but a lot was wheat thin crackers and gingersnaps.1

no you are definitely not the only one - perhaps it was a full moon last night - I just couldn't stop myself until I went to bed either1 -

I've not caught myself drooling but I definitely fondle packages of things in the grocery store until I convince myself to put them back on the shelf.6 -

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! oh man, thank you! I thought I was the only food pervert. Lolol5 -
@slimzandra agree booze causes a giant leap off of ye ol' wagon. Oddly, tonight, despite no alcohol trigger, I am ravenous! Lunch was lamb meat casserole and mushrooms. I had chocolate and cashews (stressed) then when I got home I had fruit (another treat) then almond flour pizza with butter then still ravenous so protein shake. Too many calories but my body wants more- in an eat the house kind of way!2

. . . Perkins Strawberry Pie. NO, I'm not sorry. YES, I will do this again. Strawberry Pie is a seasonal offering at Perkins and I'm already looking forward to next Spring. I've decided to make this an annual treat. Just like I'm going to have turkey with STUFFING and GRAVY for Thanksgiving. Those are the two treats I'll be having annually. I'll eat those two things even if they make me sick! They will be worth it.3

Hmmm....I bet there's a low carb stuffing out there...I've already made low carb gravy by subbing real flour for coconut or almond. Almond makes the gravy a little grainy but tasty. I have to experiment with stuffing and start now so I can post a recipe that's fabulous come the holidays.2
