I had done well all week until Thursday when a friend brought over a loaf of fresh baked bread. I hadn&#8217;t had bread in almost two weeks and it was so warm and fresh, I just couldn&#8217;t resist. Then the weekend came, which included a dinner party AND a bachelor party. I just couldn&#8217;t stick to the diet. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-79992\" title=\"digest diet\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/digest-diet.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"228\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/digest-diet.jpg 228w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/digest-diet-195x300.jpg 195w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 228px) 100vw, 228px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m actually not as upset as I thought I&#8217;d be. I didn&#8217;t lose any more weight, probably from the uptake in sodium from eating\/drinking out two nights in a row, but haven&#8217;t gained any either. I fit into a pair of pants I couldn&#8217;t before, and was actually more than relieved to get back on the diet today.<\/p>\n<p>I have also noticed a couple of things: bad food makes me physically feel bad, and I am really enjoying the Digest Diet. I have tried many diets in the past &#8211; from <strong><a title=\"grapefruit diet\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/grapefruit-active-lifestyle-meal-plan\/\">grapefruit<\/a><\/strong> to <strong><a title=\"jenny craig\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/Jenny_Craig\/\">Jenny<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; and have always gotten bored\/starved and quit. With the Digest Diet, there is plenty of variety and I don&#8217;t feel like I&#8217;m deprived. The biggest part of that has been the Slim Down Shakes. They fill me up while satisfying my sweet tooth. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, I lost enough in the beginning to *want* to succeed. I am wanting to stay as close to the diet as I can to see more and more results. I am encouraged and excited. I want to get into the lower sizes of pants, without the <strong><a title=\"muffin top workout\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/04\/saturday-morning-drills-lose-your-muffin-top\/\">muffin spill-over<\/a><\/strong>! I&#8217;m going to continue on past the 21 day mark until the wedding, but I have a pretty good idea it&#8217;s going to go beyond that for me. With the amount of energy I have on this diet (without caffeine), and the way even cheating a little has made me feel (awful), I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll want to go back.<\/p>\n<p><em>See how Jill got started in <strong><a title=\"digest diet\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/09\/throw-away-a-past-of-crappy-eating-with-the-digest-diet\/%20%20%20%20https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/09\/41-days-to-say-yes-to-the-bridesmaid-dress-blogging-it-off-with-the-digest-diet\/\">41 Days to Say Yes to the Dress: Blogging it Off with The Digest Diet<\/a><\/strong> and follow her entire Digest Diet experience.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You can read all of her updates here each week, and follow <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/#%21\/search\/?q=%23DigestDiet&amp;src=typd\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Tweets on #DigestDiet<\/a><\/strong>.
