Losing the baby weight!!
I'm on day 5 of CD now, but I'm worried about going back to work tomorrow. I was off all of last week, and I think it really helped to ease myself into the diet. We don't have any food here, wheras at work, they normally have biscuits/cakes around :sigh:
I know I'm strong enough to resist the temptation, but in doing so, I'm going to have to admit to my colleagues that I'm doing this diet, and I just KNOW I'm gonna get stick from them about it. I'm tempted to just take a stand straight away and say something like,
'I'm doing this diet, and I don't want any lectures about it. Let me make my own mistakes - if I fail horribly, then it is my own fault etc etc'
I'm only 24, and they're all older than me, and they're mothers. They treat me like a daughter, which is lovely, but it also means that they lecture me more than they do each other. I know they are just looking out for me, and I know they will not like me doing this diet. They will think it is unsafe and a 'fad'. I've done lots of research, and I can tell them my findings, but I'm sure it won't make much difference.
However, I'm sure if I lose 4st within the next few months, they might just change their opinion.....lol
Any advice on how I can tackle them tactfully would be appreciated!!
