Starting Over...Again
| Mon, 05-03-2004 - 10:52pm |
Holy Mudder what a day! Started with the virus, then we had a power outage, then there was the fire, then all the servers dropped...
(Shaking Head) I picked the wrong day to start a diet.
And yet...
I did manage to not eat over the insane amounts of stress washing over me. I kept to my plan - 1 peanut butter sandwich for breakfast, a few handfuls of almonds and banana chips for lunch, and half a bowl of rice and veggies for dinner. When I get home I can have a HUGE dill pickle.
Before anybody tells me this is a bad food plan, let me explain that I am extremely poor - I literally had 4 dollars for groceries for the next 2 weeks, so I'm making the best of what I have.
But I got through most of day 1 YYAYAYAYAYYY ME!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you're making good choices despite the stress (and yeah, wow what a day!)...congrats to you!! :o)

So, day 2 ... ACK!
Tomorrow we're scheduled to have free pizza at work. I've asked them to get the personal size for me. I'm a vegetarian and I eat the meat-free sauce, so I had an excuse. I probably shouldn't even have that, but this pizza place doesn't serve salad (believe it or not - the last time I asked for salad the woman who ordered the pizza made the delivery man go back to the shop and get it cause she thought he'd just forgotten it. He went to the grocery store and bought me a bagged salad) and I'm in no position to turn down free food.
I flubbed today and I'm vacillating between thinking "It's fine, I'll do better tomorrow" and "OMG! What a LOSER! You stupid freak! You couldn't even get through 48 HOURS!!!!"
Well, I quit drinking 14 years ago, I quit smoking 3 years ago, I quit overeating once before, I can quit it again. And this time it's gonna be for good.
