Smile hi eebee

Have you lost sight of your longterm goal?? Sometimes we get caught up with a short term goal .. and if we are not successful with that particular battle, we give up on the whole war. Maybe you were hoping to lose x lbs in time for this trip ... it hasn't happened, or not happening as quickly as you'd hoped .. and so, you figure why bother? Or perhaps the trip itself will entail difficulties sticking to a lowcarb program, so you figure why bother sticking to lowcarb even now.

Maybe put your longterm goals in writing, and stick them someplace visible as a reminder .. on the fridge, or next to the computer. If the resort turns out to be a non-lowcarb experience, well ... it's only one week out of the rest of your life. Enjoy the opportunity, the beauty and pleasures of your time away, and get right back down to serious lowcarbing the minute you return.
