Days 72 - 74

I decided to have an SS+ day on Saturday so I could have a meal with the boyfriend but didn't pay enough attention to the salad I and knocked myself right out of ketosis by eating a load of raw onions.

Of course, I spent Sunday feeling incredibly hungry and a bit miserable. I had to go supermarket shopping and I usually take a litre bottle of water with me, it can really help with any cravings I might get. Unfortunately, I completely forgot to take any so I tried to dash round as quick as I could and just be good but the lure of pork pies was just too much. I fed some of them to the boyfriend but I ate a couple of them too. I figured it wouldn't matter seeing as I wasn't in ketosis anyway. What a fool!

I woke up very late this morning feeling really ill. Every time I moved I thought I would throw up. I went downstairs for some water but ended up sitting on the kitchen floor for a few minutes feeling grim and a bit sorry for myself. Eventually, the boyfriend helped me back up to bed and I fell asleep for a few more hours. I woke up mid-afternoon feeling much better, in fact I was feeling great which was a relief seeing as I had to go to work for a few hours in the evening.

Today I've managed to stick to SS+ quite easily, I wasn't tempted to cheat at all. I had my 3 sachets, one in the form of a delicious chocolate mousse and a small meal of chicken and spinach. I don't feel too bad about yesterday's cheating, I do have quite bad PMS right now and I'm sort of surprised it has gone so well as before CD, I used to do far more foolish things just before TOTM to try and alleviate the discomfort and unpleasant feelings. I guess this is all stuff I need to learn to deal with for a slimmer life.
