DeannaDaniels Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I KNOW good and well I can't eat peanuts. Why did I go to whole foods, make a batch of cashew butter and then proceed to make a batch of peanut butter, making sure to use the raw peanuts (what was I thinking) I was so concerned with getting my no sugar nut butters that I completely forgot about no peanuts somehow. Well after a wonderfully balanced meal I reached for a spoonful of peanut butter! As soon as I ate it I remembered. It's almost as if the taste reminded me. Oh well, Day six is now going to be day one. The funny thing is I don't mind that much because I am so happy with the way I am eating and I don't even have anything I'd like to eat before I get back to day one tomorrow. Just a little disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyKay Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 That was a big adjustment for me also! I had never known that peanuts were actually a legume instead of listed as the rest of the nuts which I think is fat - haven't looked for a while - still don't eat the peanuts but do use cashews, and hazel nuts and brazil nuts Even broke down and bought some macadamia nuts - just trying to get variety - when I take my pills they stick and I use slivered almonds or cashews usually to get them down. Blessings on your journey!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little disappointed. I would chalk it up to an honest mistake and continue onto day 7! Now you're fully aware! But, if you feel like you should restart, you can also!

DeannaDaniels Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 I didn't really know that was an option. I thought once you mess up even a little, you need to restart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I didn't really know that was an option. I thought once you mess up even a little, you need to restart If you willfully eat something off-plan, that constitutes a restart. Accidentally eating something off-plan only merits a restart if it's something that is a common gut disruptor. I'd put this in the 'press on' category. Hide your peanut butter until you're done. You could delay reintroducing legumes for 5 days to give yourself 30 consecutive legume-free days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeannaDaniels Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 Thanks so much for the advice and encouragement guys. Good thing I didn't eat anything else I wasn't supposed to in expectation of a restart. The only rule I broke was I did get on the scale for my new day one but it was great news, 5 pounds down already. I'm not focused on that but it was good to know. I just feel so good. On the plus side I got my parents to commit so today was technically day one for all three of us. I'm going to track my pace as though I hadn't reset but I'm going to stick it out until their day 30. LOVING THIS SOOOO MUCH!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
