Hi, I had a planned break from the diet on Friday as it was a work's do and I'd been looking forward to it for months. My company won a wine tasting competition earlier this year, and we were treated to a 5 course dinner with a wine expert. I didn't want to miss out as it was a one-off thing and I also think having a small break makes the 3-4 month journey seem a little less long. So spoke to my CDC and she said to eat a light meal Thursday night (I had baked salmon and boiled vegetables), shake for breakfast, a light lunch then enjoy my dinner and wine (this was to avoid the alcohol being dangerous, as I've read on here it could be). My plan was to get back to plan yesterday and I really did try at first. Didn't help that I was feeling slightly hung over too (it was a good night, lol).
I actually stuck to it all day but was really grumpy with my OH all night and in the end, caved in and had a slice of toast with butter, and some crisps and chocolate just to get it out of my system. My boyfriend did try to tell me not to, which just made me want to eat even more (he was just trying to help, bless him). Today, with my OH at work, I haven't even tried.... I've had 2 slices of toast, leftover crisps and sweets. I'm now feeling really disgusted with myself.
My weigh-in is on Wednesday night. IF I manage to not eat anything else today, maybe just have 2 shakes and drink loads of water today and for the next 3 days, does anyone think there's any chance at all I might be able to stay the same, rather than get a gain on Wednesday? It's difficult not to just carry on eating when you already feel like a failure but something inside me is telling me I should just accept what's happened, and get back to it. I've been doing so well on this, whereas on most diets I usually give up after a day or two. Who else has had a blip like this, and managed to turn it around? Any advise is appreciated.. :break_diet:
