I have to agree. However, since youve done so well, dont let this "waiting" be a license to pig out on carbs. Its supposed to be a way of LIFE, and its all a learning process-so see if you can control yourself, listen to your mind and body and see if you REALLY WANT that food. Try to say no. Find out why you cant-and how to learn to do so.
Ive been cheating too, by allowing a bite of something here and there, and I havent had full blown cravings yet. That doesnt work for everyone. I reserve my carb intake for stuff I REALLY want, blowing off the bread, but Ill take a bite of the amazing dark chocolate, for example. Today I went crazy and had mexican food for lunch, beans and rice and the whole nine, but it was really delicious. I wont have carbs the rest of the day, or probably tomorrow, since I wont have an opportunity to have something that I really want.
I intend on going back first of the year, but Im still being as legal as I can, so it will be easier when I do.
Best wishes,
