I've found that for best results, make planned indulgences a CAD meal: salad, then a plate with 1/3 meat, 1/3 LC veggie, and 1/3 your carb. They say to eyeball it, but it's a bit hard to eyeball beer in comparison to steak! In other words, have plenty of protein and plenty of LC veggie too.

I also went out to eat last night. Drank lite beer but way to many of them. Feel horrible today. I wonder how much this is going to set me back. Ann

everybody, and i mean everybody, has a setback now and then. just dust yourself off and get right back to your low carb wol.

don't think of it as a setback, but rather as a learning experience. ask yourself what were the circumstances that put you there in the first place, and then try to avoid them.

and no, this low carb life style is not always easy, but it is definitely doable :cool:
