Hey everyone!
I'm away on a training course this week, and really having trouble with temptation. The subject matter has been boring so far, which doesn't help, but we also have a full hour for lunch, which I'm having to spend wandering around London trying to occupy myself. The smells from the various restaurants etc are so enticing!
So far I've managed to stay in control, but it's driving me nuts. It's strange, I've been so good, never cheated, but then I haven't felt such a strong desire to before either. Last weekend I had friends round and was perfectly happy to stick to shakes while they ate takeaways. Maybe this is just because I'm out of my comfort zone, or maybe it's because I'm getting so close to target, I don't really know. What I do know is it's taking every ounce of strength I've got to stay on track.
Does anyone have any magic coping strategies that might come in handy here? I keep telling myself that it'd be a shame to risk falling off the wagon now. But I'm worried that I may have reached my limit.
