I am on VLCD4 and have lost 7.8 lbs. I'm feeling pretty well although I have occasional pangs of hunger that come and go randomly throughout the day. I find I am always hungry about 10 minutes after I eat but it goes away eventually. ANYWAY...not the reason for my post. Like most of you, I will have lots of family around and a big Christmas celebration on Christmas Day. I would like to say that I won't cheat and I guess I'm not technically planning on it but I want to be prepared in case it happens. I don't want to fight with myself all day and beat myself down because I want a cookie. Keeping in mind that IF I cheat, I will be moderate...is there a way that will cause the least harm? Like taking less/more drops that day, making adjustments the day before and after? Can someone give me some advice on this? Christmas Day will be my VLCD16. I have 2 work Christmas parties to attend, a cookie exchange at church, a baking day with my sisters, and 4 Christmas celebrations to attend.... I feel like if I know that I have 1 day dedicated to cheat I can be strong throughout the rest of the holiday season. Thanks in advance for any feedback and opinions!
