Well, I fell off the wagon during Christmas holidays at my in-laws. That was about five days ago, and I've been eating full-steam since then. It's funny how that works, isn't it?
Anyway, I haven't erased all my gains since then (thank the Lord), which is why I'm forcing myself to get back on the wagon now. I've learned that I have to eat ONLY what's permitted on my specific diet, regardless of what's been put on the table before me. I was afraid I'd hurt my in-laws feelings if I didn't partake of their forbidden-to-me Christmas dinner, and it cost me. It'll probably take me at least two weeks of hard dieting/exercising to get back to where I was before.
Now I know to stick to my pre-arranged diet *no matter what*. I don't think someone is going to fault me for that. But now that I've identified and isolated a weakness in my dieting journey, I believe I'll be able to avoid that pitfall in the future.
