My big dieting Achilles heel is work. For some people its socialising, or managing meals out with partners, or keeping control at weekends, for me it's those 8 hours at work each day. We have the world's greatest cafeteria, its subsidised by my employer and we pay a contribution, it has lots of healthy options and should be a great choice for me. But it's not.
Cake, dessert, and unhealthy main dishes are sometimes hard for me to avoid. The comfort eating fat chick that lives inside my head still says "you've had a hard morning you deserve it, your going to the gym after work, one piece of cake won't hurt"
But it does, it means I am am maintaining but not losing.
So my challenge is to take my lunch to work and stay out of the cafeteria and sit in the sunshine!! I have made a batch of whole grain rolls up with some of my favourite freezable fillings and stuck them in the freezer. I have lots of nice fruit and salad veg and am taking them to work each day.
I'd love for you to join me, if work eating is driving you crazy too!
