    Welp, that's the end then. You'll probably weigh at least 50 lbs more now.

    you've lost 33 pounds and you are going to give all that up b/c you took a bite? Celebrate that you did not continue to bite but that you realized your error and you stopped!!! Don't give up that is just what *evil* wants us to do and we are better than that!!

    Come on now ! Stop beating your self up. And why are you feeding your daughter pancakes covered in sugar and fat ? Maybe, if you give her healthier food it will help you in the long run too. You have lost 33 lbs. That is tremendous. Keep going we all give in totemptation, this is life


    Ummmmm.....what is totemptation?

    Its not a what, its a who. She is calling you "totemptation" and exhorting you to quit just like the rest of us.

    Ok, now that you got that out your system, pick yourself up and dust off the powdered sugar and get back on it. As they say, a bend in the road is not the end of the road, unless you fail to make the turn. Make the turn. Good luck!

    I did not have powdered sugar, come on, I am not that crazy.

    Actually, I think you are that crazy. C'mon, eat powdered sugar. I double dog dare you.

    One bite won't set you back! The thing is to keep going! You can't beat yourself up over one minor slip up - just keep treating every day like a new one, with fresh starts!

    It's OK!! There's temptations all around and it's ok to give in. You gave in to those few bites - go out and walk for an extra 15mins. :) Don't give up!!! Giving up is easy - don't take the easy way out. :)

    w00t! You've just proved you're human. Glad to know :)
    And even better, you stopped at a small piece of pancake and didn't raid the fridge and cabinets after. I would say that's a good thing.

    Everybody trips up. Not once, not twice, but many many times. The only way to fail is not get up again.

    It was ONE BITE! Are you going to give up on everything because you took one bite of "forbidden fruit?" I'm sorry, but that is ridiculous.

    Your body needs carbs. A carb free diet is not healthy. There are simple carbs and complex carbs. You should be consuming at least complex carbs from whole grain foods, fruits and vegetables. If you consume the right balance of all things you will be less tempted to "cheat" and take a bite of your daughter's pancakes in the first place. Deprivation is never a good way to diet because it's not sustainable.

    Don't beat yourself up, you are obviously doing well with 33 pounds down.

    Also not all carbs are bad. Your body needs them in fact! You just have to pick healthy ones i.e. complex v.s. processed/empty. Make pancakes but make them out of whole wheat flour instead of white.

    Don't beat yourself up & certainly don't give up. Even though low carb diets really help people drop the pounds, being too carb restrictive can be almost unrealistic for most of the population. So keep up the good habits you've established, but allow yourself to have a pancake every now & then. It's only when we're having pancakes, donuts, sugary cereal, bagels every day for breakfast that we are truly hurting ourselves.

    And congrats on the 33 pounds you've lost so far, that's a great accomplishment!
