5:08 I did really good for about 2 months, and lost 14 lbs. But now, my hubby’s birthday came and i made a carrot cake at his request. I thought I could resist, but carrot cake is my favorite, and now I’ve kinda messed up my eating pattern and gained 3 lbs back. Will I lose if I get back on my eating pattern? I don’t feel deprived for the most part and can stay away from junk, there are those few things that come along and I can’t resist.
