Cheating on the hc3 diet during the 1st 42 days

DON'T DO IT!
I mentioned way back in the beginning that it took me about 7 days to make it over the "hump". Well, here I sit at the end of my journey trying to get over that hump again! My 42 days will be here in 3 days and I'm only a few pounds from my goal. But what does that mean for me? It means I feel like I have to go a few extra days so when I get to the next phase I don't have to worry about cravings.
The cheating is not worth it. Whenever I've cheated it, it's been just a little to give me a taste. However, that little bit of sugar is just enough to mess with your brain. Sugar might as well be crack cocaine!

Day 36-39 The final Countdown...

Floating between 136.5 and 138.0.
I can say with some confidence I'm sure this has nothing to do with the coctail hours my husband and I have been enjoying. WHATEVER! I go back to work tomorrow and it will be good for me and the scale to get back to the grindstone.

I am embarassed to admit I was bad last night. I was starving and we had a small dinner for my family from out of town. I know I will pay for this on the scale and my blood sugar/cravings will be bad for a couple of days. It was not even worth it. I will say that I didn't over eat like I normally would. That made me feel like I have a glimmer of success in tbe next phase.
137.0
