My husband is sabotaging himself AND ME! He ate Nutrisystem all last week (which really helps me, because it's so much easier for me to eat right), but by Friday he wanted to treat himself by going out for pizza (which we do about once a year) and later wanted popcorn! Then the rest of the weekend, he just wanted good home-cooked meals -- mostly good stuff, but soooo easy to over-do the carbs. He prepared a marinade for some chicken from a recipe (HE NEVER HAS DONE THIS IN 40 YEARS!!) that called for brown sugar. I at least got him to use the Splenda brown sugar, but that is still loaded with carbs. Then he wanted tomatoes and cantaloup and sugar peas. See? It's all good food, but one or the other would have been plenty of carbs for me! Whenever we cook, we just lose all control over portions! At least Monday is here and we will go back to eating controlled portion food again. For me, ketosis will kick in by Wednesday . . . and I SURE hope he doesn't want to celebrate again next Friday!!! Grrr!!
