While I never actually had an incident like you described during my Whole 30 (really, I just never went out to eat during that month so I could be certain), several times I woke up in the middle of the night in a sweat from a recurring "nightmare". In this nightmare, I had somehow, without thinking, consumed ice cream.... Right after I took that last glorious bite, it would hit me that I had just blown my Whole 30! Lied to my readers, and lied to myself!... I felt a lot better when I realized it was just a dream.<br /><br />I'd probably either do #2 or #4... but lean towards #4. I mean, if you didn't FEEL bad after eating it, and since you don't really know for certain, then I'd say you're good to go!<br /><br />After all, it's more about the spirit of the law, rather than the letter, right?Luke R. @ TheYoking.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165376317114351842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713263099479195389.post-9841299184290325292011-06-11T09:21:49.755-07:002011-06-11T09:21:49.755-07:00I would not beat yourself up!

I've gone to restaurants and ordered a burger given the lack of other paleo-friendly things on the menu. But when I got it, it was extremely oily. So should I ask the waiter in the future if it is cooked in oil before ordering? Curious what you plan on doing moving forward. <br /><br />You are doing so great so far - don't let this deter you! Plus your learnings are helpful for all of us as well! <br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Briannebriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02227057090657306454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713263099479195389.post-79268934870899395762011-06-11T08:14:55.343-07:002011-06-11T08:14:55.343-07:00Yes, I also would opt for #4.

You didn't consciously sit down and eat a chocolate bar ;) How is your weekend shaping up?<br /><br />I had something similar happen to me earlier this week. I took a bag of dried blueberries from TJ's out of the cupboard and (carelessly, without reading the label) poured a handful into my mouth. I flipped over the package and there it was "SUGAR". Crap!! I literally spit them all out. So, although I didn't chew/swallow them, I'm sure I did absorb some of the sugar but couldn't have been really anything. <br /><br />Day 12!!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04034530817635748002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713263099479195389.post-12287365645011391922011-06-10T16:46:36.315-07:002011-06-10T16:46:36.315-07:00I would definitely choose option 4, as well.

Before I even knew it, I had a 1/4 of a double chocolate chip muffin. I felt really guilty afterwards and defeated, but I went to the gym and ran on the track and instantly was able to reframe: this isn't about perfection. This is about learning things about yourself. You didn't plan this cheat; it wasn't lack of willpower (as it def. was with me today), it was accidental. Shake it off and get back in it. You can say eff it in a few weeks. <br /><br />PS that muffin made me sick as a dog. I'm 5 weeks pregnant and sweets nauseate me anyway; not sure what I was thinking trying it. I won't be doing that again. <br /><br />Keep going woman. YOU GOT THIS. <br /><br />:) <br /><br />Heather <br />runhlrun.blogspot.comHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013504768642605916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713263099479195389.post-7042220762944252412011-06-10T16:12:13.382-07:002011-06-10T16:12:13.382-07:00I would do the same thing as you.

I don't think Melissa and Dallas intentions are to make us neurotic about food but rather change our relationship with it. In my opinion consuming a tiny amount of peanut oil is not like eating an apple pie, so onward and upward!Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18261310063045997290noreply@blogger.com
