No need to go back to phase 1 for 2 weeks. If you have cravings, go back to phase 1 for just a few days ~~ usually long enough to detox and get the cravings in check ~~ then proceed to phase 2. If you feel you can handle the cravings,

yes, it was a combination of many things. the holiday weekend and three major happenings over the past week -- two cookouts and one day out with friends i haven't seen in over a year.

also, i was feeling as though SBD just stopped working for me. i wasn't losing at all. i found i loved the "peanut butter cup" using two tbs peanutbutter and two sugar free fudgsicles and was having it every night and i think that just doesn't work for my system. i've stopped that. and it got to the point that i think i just gave up. but i don't want to. when i do this right, i do not have cravings and that's what this is all about. just eating meals and basically not being hungry.

so i want to be back on track and i am as of today.

thank you.

Hi Karen, that may have been the culprit.
