    I "legally" give me 2 days of cheating... Sat and Sun. So those days I exercise more... so I don't feel so guilty.... but when it's pizza, or cake, or chocolate, or ribs... it's ok, as long as it's weekend! Next Mon. I am usually very good....
  • This only happens to me when I eat popcorn. I eat a paleo diet which is grain free and corn is not ok to eat, but I CANNOT resist popcorn, it's like a drug! If I eat popcorn at night while watching TV or doing something equally boring I will end up craving carbs the next day. I actually went through this today and finally threw out all of my popcorn. It's too dangerous to keep in the house. I always get back on track the next day because after a day of eating too many carbs I just end up feeling like crap.
