I don't feel bad. This is the first time i've consciously tried to alter my diet and I'm curious to see how it goes. But I don't think I have much emotional attachment to the idea.

Don't worry, I also think that a mistake I've made, and I think most people have too, is making radical changes—changing your diet overnight, your exercise routine, your sleep schedule, etc. You can simply change things little by little. Changing eating habits you've had for years is difficult, but not impossible. It's better when you do it gradually. Here at home, it's worked quite well for our family. We tried to change things overnight and it didn't go well. Then we started slowly and it's been great! 👌

I don't think you broke your diet per se, but rather that you're living a normal life. Don't feel bad about it. I think, as a doctor I follow says, it's not about giving up enjoying things that are truly delicious. The idea is not to carry that burden that some people place on us. A cake isn't going to kill you, but you should know that you have to get back to your normal routine tomorrow. Something we love at home is eating together at the table, so for me it's very difficult to sit at the table and not eat because I want to fast from the afternoon until the next day. And with small children, it's difficult having to explain to them why Dad isn't going to eat, or training them to do the same. So what I do is eat a little. And I'm not too strict about things, always looking for a balance, so as not to ruin that beautiful moment of everyone being at the table.
To hydrate yourself you could add either salt water or lemon water, they are very good.
