Good news and really bad news

Good news: I got my first loss clippie...5 lbs.! I'm very excited about that, but...

Really bad news: I totally lost all sense of my diet today at lunch (Pizza Hut...need I say more?). An Atkins no no.

I felt so good about the 5 lbs., but after my BIG diet mistake today I'm feeling terrible.

Think of it this way: one meal will not hurt you....unless you end your new way of eating because of that one mistake.

Congratulations on the 5 pounds!!

LOL, we ALL fall short!!

At least now you KNOW how to jump back on the bandwagon, right?

Hang in there and congrats on the 5 pounds!

Terri, it's always what you do next that counts. Get right back on the wagon and you will be fine.

Terri, we all make mistakes. Just go on from where you are - no big deal! I had the same problem Friday evening with Pizza Hut! Live, learn and move forward.

Just shake it off and get back on the wagon and you will be fine. If you deprive yourself of something that you really want then you will be more inclined to eat more than just a normal helping. Keep up the great work and don't get discouraged. You have worked hard to get your first clippie and I know that you aren't going to stop now, you will have your next clippie in no time.

Forget about it. It's over--it's done and you can't go back and change it. Don't waste your energy feeling bad about this just focus on right now and follow your plan right now. Right now you are focused on goal and you're doing great.

Next time just eat the cheese and toppings and leave the pizza crust on the tray

Thanks so much everyone, I feel better after reading your replies! I had a right on target Atkins supper, and I feel much more in control again. One thing I've learned though...weekends are not so easy for me and my diet!
