Well - that's interesting. This week was a big challenge. Out on Tuesday night at a professional meetup over dinnertime. Free drinks and food. Didn't get home til 9:45, with no dinner prepped. Wed - lunch out to celebrate my FIL 90th birthday. Thurs- stressful day, job interview, and out for dinner with colleagues (a monthly dumplings feast). Friday - another job interview.
How did I survive:
Meetup: just had a diet coke and stayed away from the food table. When I got home, a handful of almonds along with a split Lebanese cucumber filled with salmon and mayo.
Wed- when stressed, walk AWAY from the kitchen! And chose steamed fish and vegies at the restaurant, and a treat for dessert was a latte.
Thursday didn't go so well. I had one of the best dumplings then let everyone know I'm doing low carb. My colleague tried to help out, ordering fried chicken and sweet chilli chicken wings. I took one chicken wing - way too much sugary sauce - and then stuck to chinese broccoli for the rest of the night.
Friday - I clearly felt the urge to snack and binge after the interview. Tried walking away from the kitchen - actually out the door and off for an hours walk.
Great to know I can still lose weight with stressful and social challenges.
