so i went all thru phases 2 and 3 without cheating, just started phase 4 which i knew would be hard for me because there is so much more freedom. So I started with a small taste of a healthy spelt cookie I was making, and it snowballed, to a few cookies, crackers, se chips, a roll, and some candy. been sick to my stomach all night with cramps and bloating, and generally feeling very guilty. terrified to get on the scale tomorrow because I dont want to know how much damage I've done. If I just eat clean, protein and veggies the next few days can I undo the damage?

Hanju - don't freak out. You'll be fine. I see you're not at home to do a steak CD? Just be careful the next few days - eat P2 foods & try to keep your calories a bit lower for a few days! I wouldn't think for a minute that you've gained too much - but if you're not at home to weigh, you may not see the reality of what's happened.

I'd like to say that no one ever does this, but as we all know, it's just not true. Sounds like once you started you had a hard time stopping....but I'm sure you'll remember how horrible you felt next time you're tempted to go too far!!!

Hang in there - mark this down as a lesson learned & move on!!! You really will survive this!!
