it is all a matter of learning, you have a lot of willpower and you can do it if you chose to. You are just starting out and it takes a while to get from being deprived of a lot of things and learning to see if you can include them in your diet and in proper portions for you. My one biggy is the ben and jerrys ice cream I know I will eat the whole thing and I have no problem with that concept when I decide to go off plan. but it does not set me on a carb craze, it is just plain simple enjoyment of the moment.  

Strawberry short cake is definitely one of the Best cakes! And Baskington is very wise 😁 But most of my willpower is from keto and fasting. I’ve been thinking about the left over cake in the fridge since I gave my daughter some of my cake last night. And the ferrero rochers I’ve been saving in my dresser and the lasagna my mom froze for me a month ago. I don’t like having to think about it but it is good for me. I need to learn to think of it less. 😬 

isn't it tempting fate in the early stages to have all that around you?? I don't know if I could handle having my favorite ice cream looking at me every day! when ever I get the thought of getting it, not being in the house gives me a chance to change my mind and stay sensible. 

Baskington it is a special kind of torture 😅😅 If it were my cake I would have thrown it out! But it’s not mine. And the ferrero’s ive had for a while. Barely thought about them while carb free 🤷‍♀️ I wanted to test myself. Didn’t know what I was signing up for 😨😄
