Starting back to work, I have done well avoiding the cafeteria, the snacks, etc. A few times a healthy choice came along and although it was ok for me to eat it intead of my planned food, it still felt like I fell off the wagon. Although the shrimp on greens was a good choice, It wasnt my plan, I ate too much of it, had the high calorie dressing and I regreted not eating what I brought. It still felt like I fell off the horse so to speak.
I need to not only make my food plan in the morning but eat only that each day. That way I know I am hitting my goals, getting the right nutrition and the days food is without further effort if I just eat what I brought with me.
I need to somehow sever ties permenantly between myself and hte others at work. I need to be able to wave a friendly hand, stating, " No thanks! I brought my own" and stick to my goals.
Being around so many over eaters at work scares me as I know a couple people who ate right passed their sleeve and ended up even heavier. I get scared that will be me.
To feel more secure there, I need to develop more tricks for staying separate. Maybe if I buy a really lovely lunch box, that will help. I know once I bought the water bottle I loved, suddenly drinking water was effortless.
Maybe I am secretly a three year old. Or maybe I just feel that way as this is all new and I am learning how best to achieve my goals within a social circle that doesnt share my goals.
Thanks for listening to be blab to get it off my chest.
