Tried a Cheat Day...

Ok, I thought since I've been sooo good with my diet I could allow myself a "cheat day."

I tried this out Sunday after our workout. My daughter had a birthday party to attend at Chuck-E-Cheese. I didn't go completely crazy and eat a whole pizza to myself. I started with the salad bar. BUT then....

We ordered bread sticks (something Maddy likes to teeth on) I "helped" her eat them. I had a slice of pizza, and then of course came the birthday cake. I wasn't even craving cake but there it was, being handed out to everyone and I thought, why not? 1 slice won't kill me. The real killer was the goody bag. Why did I open it? Who knows, because it was sitting in front of me I guess. Had a few pieces of candy to top of my cheat day.

The end result? I FELT LIKE CRAP! I wasn't feeling so hot by the time we left and all that night I tossed and turned with a stomach ache. I was like the kid who ate all their Halloween candy in 1 night making them sick.

Lesson learned? Crappy pizza, birthday cake, and candy are not worth it!

Thankfully this has put me back on the right track for the rest of the week. Hope everyone else is doing well and I'm excited to see some more results Sunday!

  1. OMG LIZ you are human! :) It happens... and I'm so glad you didn't enjoy it ! LOL-- Seriously it is pretty amazing how once you have detoxed your body and are on a good healthy diet and you throw in some food full of sugar and who knows what else you feel terrible afterwards-
    Before you started eating healthy you might not have felt it like you did. Crazy but good lesson--- Thanks for sharing this Liz!
