hectic, busy, stressful work day = diet doesn't work

well it seems this week might be a write off in the 'diet' department... damn i hate that word!!

work has been so so so busy and stressful, eating times are out of whack completely and my only sanity in the last 2 days has been coffee and a bag of liquorice bullets... yesterday I cut lunch completely.......not good for anyone I guess but certainly not good when you're trying to follow an eating plan...

I am so buggered I can't even remember what I ate on what days and when!!! All I know is that even though I am eating sweets and drinking coffee I am still not eating processed carbs or whatever they're called - bread, pasta, rice etc (actually that's a fib- I had a dessert spoon of rice with my dinner last night as I hadn't eaten anything all day) so I guess thats a plus because I once I start I won't stop again....

I've discovered cabbage is a great subsitute as a meal filler instead of pasta or potatoes and it really has been a godsend. I think last week my dinner portions were massive so hubby has been designated the disher upperer for meals... my eyes tend to be too big for my belly.

I am going to keep trying hard for the next few days but i really think I'm going to wipe this week off the charts and start again next Tuesday (weigh in day)
