Stay in Phase 1 after Easter "cheats"

Hi,


I'm nearing the end of Phase 1 and I've done really well...10lbs to date!  Phase 2 would end for me on Tuesday.  Here's my dilemma.  Today I'm having mostly SB legal foods for dinner, ham, broc, hard boiled eggs and SF jello eggs.  Here's the deal...I made a "regular" cheesecake and quite honeslty I'm going to have a piece.  I bake alot, but I've never made cheesecake so I do want to try it.  Plus, I've eaten 3 chocolate eggs.  I'm not having any wine (I'm a former White Zifandel drinker..which I know is loaded with sugar).  I told my DH not to buy it so I won't be tempted.


Here's my queston.....Should I stay in Phase 1 until the end of this week to compensate for today's splurges or go into Phase 2 as scheduled on Tuesday?  Overall, I'm feeling pretty in control of my eating.  I've been dining out with no problems and doing well in everyday eating.


PS - I do plan to bag up all the candy in the dishes that is out for the guests and give as "goody bags" plus the majority of the cake will go home with them too.


Happy Easter!

DYK that's the beauty of South Beach!


It's a special day, eat your slice of cheesecake, call it a day, and move on. Keep on your current track, finish phase one and then move on to phase 2.


You're doing fabulous.
