I am doing very well on my diet and feeling very motivated to stick at it for the next 6 weeks or so by which point I should be to my target weight (or very near it anyway).
I work with a woman with whom I am very friendly and she knows that I am desperatly trying to get back into last years summer clothes.
In the main she appears to be very supportive but every so often she 'encourages' me to give myself 'a break' and have a few glasses of wine - the longer I maintain my stance the more insistant she becomes.
She is particularly keen to see me drink at weekends (I don't socialise with her outside of work so she's not after a 'drinking buddy') and, in particular, to break my diet next week when I go on holiday for a week (not with her).
Today she told me "You'd be mad not to eat and drink next week - you deserve to relax. Just come off it for the week and go back on again when you come back".
Well ........... I know that she is not deliberatly trying to sabotage me but I am fascinated to know if she might be trying to do so on some unconscious level.
She is quite a 'big girl' (quite a lot bigger than me) and forever on and off Atkins with little effect.
Her insistance hasn't been botheing me - I have been finding it quite amusing but of late it has become ......... a bit irritating.
