HELP!:help2:
I have got an awful dilema. I have been on LL now since 24th March and have lost an incredible 25ilbs. I love the weight loss and had the biggest thrill of my life on Friday when browsing in New Look with a skinny friend who encouraged a very sceptical me to try some size 18's combats and a size 18 top on, and they fit!! OH joy ! Never been in clothes that stated with a 1 for about 12 years, it was fab couldnt stop smiling all day.:bliss:
BUT, my OH starts a new job soon and wanted to have a sneaky week away in greece before tehn and has booked a late deal to go to the greek islands next wednesday. PANIC!
I am really in a state , what should I do, will I be able to stay in abstinance on holiday ?
Its just that eating IS what passes as the the evening entertainment on these little islands, and our normal routine is to not eat much all day then while away the evening in a taverna with a view, having a fab meal. Now dont get me wrong this is not unhealthy food of the fatty variety , usually lean grilled meat or fish with salad , but a lot of wine is generally consumed (about half a litre each).
I dont normaly gain weight on holiday because of this regime and lots of swimming and walking, but I really dont want to lose the plot with my LL plan becuase I am doing really well , and have never cheated at all in the 5 weeks on the plan.
I wondered has anyone fgone on holiday and stuck exclusively to packs? or has anyone ever gone and done say 2 packs for breakfast and lunch and had a protein and salad eveing meal and not been blown out of Ketosis and got back straight back on the horse when they returned?
I dont want to spoil my 100 days , as I made myself a promise not to cheat, but I really doubt my ability to do a week away without joining my husband in an evening meal.
I know I should just take the packs and stick to the programme, but part of me thinks, would it harm to have a meal every other evening of say grilled fish and green leaves and pass on the alcohol, and stick to packs for breakfast & lunch, on three days and 4 packs on the other days?:help2:
Would love to hear any advice or just your comments.
Thanks
