14 day FT Result...lessons learned

...no drum roll please...I'm up 1.5 lbs from last Wed.

* Could it have been the extra pumpkin coconut muffin (s)?
Lesson learned: I am a baked-goods junkie-I love pumpkin-I love the few SF choc chips I sprinkled on top all warm and melted. They're in the freezer now, so I can eat one at a time...I ate '3' last night!

*Could it have been the handful of homemade garlic/herb croutons I made for the broccoli soup?
Lesson learned: Stay far way from garlic bread-anything! Cleaning out the freezer-doesn't mean I'm the garbage disposal.

*Could it have been the Coke Zero?  (I know, this one surprises even me)
Lesson leaned: I'm not sure what to say about that one. I went to bed with that old 'blown up' feeling. I forgot how 'fat' that felt. 

It's a brand new day, and no permanent is damage done. Last night doesn't erase all the good choices I've made for the last weeks. (notice all the positive self-talk?)
I'm not the girl who can 'bake' right now-even the coconut flour/almond flour recipes trigger 'that something' in me.  I already knew that, and I need to listen to what I know.  That inner voice never leads me wrong!
May you have a good day too-
Jeri

  1. Bummer! But you know why it happened, AND you have time to get that 1.5 pounds of bloat off by Wednesday. Just keep to the plan - you can do it!

  2. YOu know I have said many times that my weight goes up and down 2lbs all the time. It's OK. Just try not to eat past 7pm and eat the coconut stuff in moderation. Only 1 or 2 at a time. hat will be off in no time.
    Have a great day :-)

  3. It also could have been none of those things! This diet is weird like that in that sometimes you do all the right things and gain or stay the same and sometimes you do all the right things and lose! Stay the course I think and it will happen.

  5. Sorry for the gain. When we know better, we do better, and I'm sure you will. Keep up the good work and it will come off again!
