Health Board: How long does it take for you to fall off the wagon?

i've been eating pretty healthy (low carb, esp processed carbs, high protein/veg) the past 4-5 weeks or so (down about 8 lbs without any exercise). the cravings for sugar went away and don't come back.
i treated myself last night (pizza) and had to do a work lunch and at the burger bun. my body is already craving some shitty food. it really is amazing how quickly my body shifts and starts demanding the low hanging fruit.
i'm going to have grilled chicken breast and a plate of veg for dinner tonight and it will be at bay, but on a lazy friday the lure is real

If you're craving something, it's probably because your body is not getting enough of it.

Why not go ahead and mix in some work outs?

oh i'm not claiming eating better excuses not working out
but eating is more important than working out

our bodies think they need sugar so they signal that we need it early and often in our abundant society
we didn't evolve with this sort of society in mind

I'll be the first to admit that I had a bad day yesterday. March madness lulled me into eating an entire pizza and drinking a bunch of beer.

That depends on what you are trying to do, but at least mix in some jogging. If you are already eating right you might as well pick up your cardio, too. You'll feel a lot better and it doesn't take much.

Also Jake, you need to hit up that putaforkdown thread on the food board if you want to subtle brag in the disguise of "seeking advice".

I'm on vacation and am not weighing myself until I return. It won't be pretty.

oh this isn't a brag. it's a legitimate thing. eating well for 4-5 weeks means shite
it's like the chris rock joke
also, indirectly, making this thread will ensure that i actually follow through with not fricking up b/c it's out there in the public

this thread isn't about me
i legitimately am curious if other people have that same lure without very much change

It depends on the person obviously, but for me I'm pretty locked in to what I get at the grocery store at this point. Working out at least 4 times a week is essential though. If you're working out and eating a lot of protein those cravings will go away quicker I promise.

That's what people are doing in there?

It takes me the better part of a week to do a low calorie diet until I start to go into shock. Probably diabetic shock. Seriously. It's like completely lacking any energy.

i already said they're gone but within 2 meals it's back
when i say "it's back" i acknowledge that it's back and i'm not going to fall back into that behavioral loop
the point is that is powerful shite and pretty fast-acting

I never fall off the wagon. My body image issues won't let me.
