My birthday and vacation were planned high carb choices.

But I really don't feel all that well when I eat many sugary carbs (which I guess is good news) I won't be fat again.

This is the real world and you have to make real choices for the rest of your life.

I guess what I am saying is that if you really think of this as a WOL and you get to your goals and feel healthy this way... a higher carb option now and again will be a fun or situational choice but your "Reward" is looking and feeling good forever after.

Wow am I on a soap box today... LOL!
