True Confessions
I have to confess to being really dumb. I have been on Atkins since May 3 and had lost 15 pounds during May. DH and I love to cruise and we had one scheduled for May 31. We just got back Sat. and had such a good time. I could have stuck to my Atkins plan but I didn't. As you know a cruise is just wall to wall food, and really would have been easy to "be good". Never found a cruise desert I like so that was no problem. I did back slide with the bread (toast of a morning and a hotdog bun), potatoes, fruit, and ice cream. I was doing good and enjoying myself and by Thursday it must have caught up with me. I became so sick (after my second ice cream sundee in about a five hour span with a meal between. I was in the room around five so sick. I was in bed by six, feeling like I was going to die. The only thing we could figure out was overloading my body back up with sugar and carbs. It seemed to affect me like someone getting drunk. I learned a lesson. The food was not worth the suffering I went through. It didn't end Thursday I was queasy all day Friday. We got home late Saturday night and got back on program yesterday. I am having to go through some withdrawl today. It was truely not worth it, and I could have eat on program with no problem. Hope my stupidity will help someone think twice before they get crazy like I did. It won't happen to me again, I learned my lesson.
