Default never making it out of induction...

I don't think I'll ever quite make it out of induction. This is my second time falling off the wagon. Last time it lasted a week (Christmas, and I gained back 6lbs in the week I took off... so sad) This time I didn't do so bad. My boyfriend made one of my favourite meals 2 nights ago... I made it through the first night, and then last night he prepared the last of it, and I decided I'd have a "little bite" (since it is a rare occasion that he makes it), and the bite would still keep me under the 20g mark. Well... I later went into the kitchen to make some tea and ended up finishing off half a portion of it (putting myself way over the 20g). I don't feel as bad as I did the last time I fell from grace... and this time I'm blaming it on my TOM. I can't seem to satisfy my hunger right now. I've always had a tendency to snack during my TOM, and this time is no different. I picked up some beef jerky knowing this would happen... but my body seems to be craving more comfort type foods right now. The worse of it is chocolate... I bought a lc cavalier bar to have on hand in case of emergency (without it I'd be sure to run across the street to the store which sells only the "real" chocolate bars). I've had it for a few days and haven't cracked it open. That is definitely a good thing since I'm a choco-holic by nature. So... I guess I just wanted to share. I expect that I will probably have at least 1 cheat night every month when my body insists on comfort food, and I'm not beating myself up over it. The body wants what the body wants. I'm just glad that for the most part I'm sticking with this WOL. Hey, any comments or suggestions (even personal experiences) to help me get through my TOM would be appreciated.
