Here We Go Again

I am starting to sound like a broken record and I am getting very tired of it and very tired of myself and my wavering will power. Yes, I caved into carbs again.....not good carbs mind you, but the ones that cause me so much trouble....the white ones.....flour, sugar, etc. Junk carbs.

It all started out innocently enough - crystal light. Now I have never had this particular flavor of Crystal Light before - peach tea. I thought it would be like Peach snapple - which is a wonderful drink in my book. No cravings with it and just tastes fantastic. Not the case. I could almost feel the surge in my bloodstream as I drank this drink. I should have stopped after that first swallow, but did I.....No. I was like a junkie being given my drug of choice and it spiralled from there....cookies, chips, ice cream.

Now there are more conseqences than just knocking myself out of ketosis. There is the obvious water weight gain (I am afraid to look at the scale for the next 3 days until that goes away), and the headache and the allergies starting back up. I just don't understand what happens to me. I know I feel so much better when I don't eat this crap, but it is almost like I cannot control it. Like an alter ego takes over.

I did some research on the low-carb forums that I frequent and I am gonna try adding some l-glutamine and chromium piccolate to my supplements. I don't know if it will help, but at this point I am willing to try anything to get past day 3+ - including putting myself into a sleep induced coma for several days, LOL.

One thing is for certain - No How, No Way am I Giving up....THAT IS NOT AN OPTION.
