I recommend keep your ethical vegan standards first no matter what. Did the muffin have any animal products? If no, we have something to work with.
If you messed up this time, live and learn, but do not turn inward on yourself with self flagellation. This will only create more stress.
Forgive yourself and move on. After I went veg, I was transitioning to raw foods and had some mashed potatoes in a restaurant. I forgot they are sometimes made with milk and butter. I learned, forgave myself, and moved on.

If you are RT4 there is some small space for cheat foods. Try to apply RT4 as a mypyramid with a little cheat food at the top in very small portions.
Continue to track what you ate on a site like www.cronometer.com. Is the nutella cream a nut butter like peanut butter or does it have chocolate, milk, or eggs?
I might recommend do not cheat the rest of the day or week even. Finish out the day with salad, may be some bananas or oranges.

Hi yeee unfortunatlly thet stuff have animal products in it...In past I many times was starve my self and after longer time I was soo posest with fought to eat something sweet that when I try I was just stuffing my self with all posible sweet stuf what I was haveing in home...this time when I´m RT4 I was also having creaving,(not easy when my boyfriend eat next to me muffin or whatever what have this smell like cookie´s) but I endet up wit this one muffin and bit of nutella,and not like befor ( all day sweet´s) so I gues it´s anyway beter as it was.But still I don´t want eat that cos of animals I see thos wideos and I don´t want to have nothing in common with this...anyway thank U for tips.
It´s like this that I just started this live style (2months now) and I still like all this junk food but most of time when I have this craving´s moments soo I just stuffing my self with more bananas or other fruit...but somtimes eaven after that,my belly is totally full I stilll have this thought that I would like to eat this cos I remember it was teasty... that´s my bigest problem right now...
For my expérience that was the cheat that helped me getting stronger on this lifestyle! If you still ate the muffin , it is because you were feeling it is bad only in your brain not enough in your body, but you will see after a while of eating good and simplier food and in enough quantities just the idea of eating your favorite muffin will just fad like magic. After 6 months one day i stopped eating chocolate, never thought i would and i never looked back ,i tasted it again in some occasion but did not feel it good and never fell back in eating it daily even when trying to eat it again,, the same whith cheese, when i taste it again (like in my parents home) i feel i can't really swallow it just taste it and after à few days even the taste disgust me.
So as soon you are eating more and more of the right food, the muffin will just help you to get stronger on this lifestyle by making feel the différence of energy , digestion in your body and your taste will change....
Thank´s I hope it will be like that for me to...but did U was not haveing this feeling of guilt that U eat that???
I had the feeling of guilt for the cheese but not for the chocolate and that is why It took me longer to not be attracted by cheese anymore.Because of the guilt I was not tasting it really when I "cheated", eating too much of it, which could not help me feeling how a little portion made me feel and maintained this idea that à little of cheese could be good,very good...And once i let it go,was ok to eat a little in some occasion (friands, parents, could not buy some because of the animals) if i was really attracted to it, I started really tasting it, feeling how it make me feel, was far less good compared to what my imagination was saying to me and the attraction disappeared..
But perhaps it could be good to be strict on the diet for 30 days to clean a little your taste buds and then be more progressiv for the aliments who are hard to quite.
And one advice never focus on not eating something , like i will never eat cheese anymore this "never" thing make your brain wanting it more , trigger your imagination. Just focus on eating more and more food that make you feel awesome!!! No bad or good food just food with different consequences one your body , the animals and the planets , experiment and your préférences will change...
Hope it help you..
