Hi All,

I want to lose about 100lbs and I have been following a low carb, no sigar plan since 3/4

Now, I have been really good, walking and eating right until NOW! I went to Wendys to get the nee spinach salad well, I saw the menu and I got the number1 with cheese and fries and a coke.... AHHHH I could scream! Why did I do that, I am the only one who controls what I put in my body and I messed up! Tomorrow is my first weigh in and I am scared its not going to be good and I will be even more upset and eat some more! I only had a protein bar and coffee besides that so it was around 1100 calories for the day, do you think because the calories are still low I wont gain????

I really need help and advise, please

Thanks so much

I weigh around 250!

Hi! I am pretty new to the board but not to dieting. Also I weigh about 250, too. My two cents are this: I know you feel bad about cheating, but I would not dwell on it too much. Tomorrow is another day! I went on Atkins Last year, very gung ho, no cheating, and lost 30lbs. But, depriving myself of the carbs I am extremely addicted to created a huge problem for me. I was so frustrated from never having the foods I really craved (french fries are my favorite food!) that I would binge on carbs, eventually going off Atkins entirely. So now I am recommitted to losing weight, and going the low carb way, but if I just have to have those fries, I mean really have them, I am not going to deprive myself. I don't want to go off the deep end again!

GOOD LUCK!!

Yes, you are the only one who controls what you eat. You say, " Why did I do that, I am the only one who controls what I put in my body and I messed up! " You're in the best position to answer your own question about why too. Tomorrow is another day
