Johnka, LOL. I could have written those very words. Pickled beets are at the very bottom of my food list. The thought of them makes me gag. That disgusting texture, color, etc. {{{shudder}}}} And I will eat and actually like almost everything (McDonald's = gross, though). OTOH, your "cheat" meal is really a pretty modest "cheat." "Cheating" means that you go to the Cold Stone Creamery and pound down about 1,200 calories of ice cream packed with all kinds of bad stuff!

Lost_Dog, everyone binges and plateaus. There's great advice here about shaking things up by changing diet and exercise. Hang in there! You're probably still changing, just not as dramatically as when you first started.

By the way, I'm going backpacking again this weekend, and I plan to hit up that same restaurant for another decadent meal.
