I understand it's normal when switching from Atkins to CAD to put on a little water weight, isn't it? I decided not to panic until Monday. (A totally random amount of time to give my body time to adjust..)

My SON is trying to adjust to the change.. since he's become accustomed to me not eating anything with sugar, he gets confused seeing me eat it now....<sigh> Luckily, instead of having to explain, I just distract him with another subject he can go off on..(He usually asks approx. 700 questions a day...)

Even if I do end up going back on Atkins, I've at least learned I really CAN have a treat now and then without worrying about it so much. A MAJOR help in breaking the food=guilt trap.
