Oh thank you all!!! I made the boys pizza for supper tonight... and had the temptation to take just a small peice. I still have a fruit I can eat tonight... I drank 3 glasses of water while reading you posts. You saved me from cheating. I hope I can do this. :D
-
This was very refreshing to read. I felt very very very tempted tonight and I was going to give in just for one night of cheats. But I need to stay focused and remain in control.

I know this is an old thread but... My first cheat was in round 3 of phase 2. First two rounds were the long rounds, this last one was the short round, and my friend had his housewarming party (for this reason I didn't want to go), I just had to get drunk so I cheated with gin and water (the lowest calorie drink around) - that led to chips and salsa, bruschetta, cheese bits, shrimp, vegetables, some weight watchers snacks, doritos snack pack, probably some other stuff to (I even finished the bottle of gin). I didn't really feel bad about it because I've been perfect the first two rounds. I didn't even look at the scale the next day but just went back to the protocol like nothing had happened. Next day I was only up 0.8 lbs, and even lost more then a pound a day the next few after that. So I lost probably 3 days in total, but overall have lost 74 lbs in the rounds to date. It was almost a conscious decision (I knew it was probably going to happen with alcohol, but I made the choice and was willing to deal with the consiquences in the coming days - luckily they weren't to bad for me).

For me, it wasn't even the scale issue when I cheated, it was how physically ill I felt the next day! My stomach was definitely ticked off at me.
1 cheat in 27 days... had a meltdown. started with the buffalo wing flavored pretzel nuggets, about 2 handfuls of those. After that I figured, what the heck, might as well get it all out of my system so I don't cheat again...then came the baked french fries with real ketchup, the chocolate chips and a few beers. Ugh!
Right back to protocol the next day. The scale was up .8 the next morning but after 2 days, that was gone and had a good 1.2 loss this morning.
Cheating is sooo not worth it. -
My first cheat was yesterday. I had two bites of cheddar cheese. I was very strict with the protocol, but had TOM and was stalled and hungry and grumpy. It made me feel better instantly, and it may be coincidence but I broke the stall this morning. I also skipped my fruits and breads to compensate for it though.

My first cheat was last night, so I really needed this thread!!!! I had 2 - ok...3 pieces of veggie pizza!!! My friend and I that are doing the hcg together were ordering pizza for the kids and the temptation was just too much!! We looked at each other and said "Are we going to be good or bad?" And, well you guessed it, we were BAD! We both decided together to "cheat" and knew that we would have to face the consequences in the morning. What I did not figure on was that the consequences would be more that weight gain! I did gain .7 pounds, but the worst part was my stomach!!!! I think that I have just been eating so "clean" that my stomach totally revolted. I had the worst stomach cramps and had to run to the bathroom more than once. I almost could not drive my kids to school!!! Ugghhh - so NOT worth it! I could have dealt with the weight gain, but I will NEVER do it again if that stomach pain is the consequence! I also now know that I need to make sure to plan ahead and not put temptation in front of my face. Oh, and this is a note for all that have cheated - don't beat yourself up over it!!! Try to remember that tommorrow is another day, and you have a chance to sometimes loose more than 1 pound a day, so move on with the diet and let it work ;)

I have been stalled for a week from a cheat. It didn't show up right away (lost a pound the next day), but now I have been losing and gaining the same .8 for a week now. A few spoonfuls from my son's Ben & Jerrys, and I wasted a week :( Now to make things worse, TOM is coming any day.
-
ivie -- part of your stall could have a lot to do with TOM getting ready to show, so don't beat yourself up! Hang in there and take it one day at a time. I bet you see a decent loss after TOM leaves

Sorry to here that ivieisme, but yeah cheats can show up a few days later. Thats one of the reasons I worry when someone cheats and the scale doesnt show it or goes down a little the next day. May set them up to cheat again. And then it shows up later or they stall out a few days later.
There is so much going on insdie and with our metabolism. For me, its not worth all the work to take a chance messing it up. -
I haven't cheated at all, maybe gone a little rogue, with protein shakes, but overall, losing so much so quickly has kept me faithful....I have been having crazy dreams about eating beef and cheese stuffed burritos and pizza and cookies lol...they're so vivid I wake up feeling guilty like I cheated for real....
