Well, yesterday went pretty good - Went for a 2 mile walk, stuck with my healthy eating all day and at 2 p.m. went to work...I did pack some vegetarian chilli and a sweet potato for my dinner break at work - but at dinner time it got a little busy and I only had a chance to eat about a third of it - while watching monitors - it's not great for the digestion...had to take a few tums..It's just tough to break old habits....and I usually get so worked up, running around at work that I lose my appetite (I'm a labor and delivery nurse and usually work evening shift - when most of our a.m. inductions deliver - and it's not like we can eat when we're pushing with a patient!) Then after a delivery, I'm like full of adrenaline/stressed have 1 million things left to do, so can't just sit down and eat. Dealing with people just takes so much out of me - in that kind of environment you have to give 110%. And when things go bad, as they sometimes do, it can be heart-wrenching and extremely stressful. So what happens is I don't eat at work, or barely scarf whatever is readily available down..then I have a 40 minute drive home to unwind and when I get home...well, I'm starving (and it's usually about midnight to 1 in the morning. Not the best set-up for success. So last night when I got home I had af few slices turkey, a piece of cheese...and a cookie. Oh well, just a cookie. Not a cake. Then I went to bed. Adjustments that need to be made: - I'm going to start bringing cut up apples to snack on, and make some soup to eat when I get home. Buy more turkey. And...hide the cookies. I'm off today- so it won't be too hard to stick to the plan! Oh...and SURVIVOR comes on tonight! I love that show- nothing like watching other people starving when you're on a diet!! ha ha

You aer doing great! Don't beat yourself up over one cookie. I have eaten an entire pack of cookies out of boredom before. I am so glad I have this site and all of this support from people like you to be able to stick to the plan no matter if I slip and make poor eating choices. You sound like you have a good plan in place to stay on track. Also remember you walked two miles, so you probably cancelled that cookie out. I liked your comment about Survivor. It made my morning.

What a great job you have! After going through 2 pregnancies/deliveries, I have such a huge amount of respect for the labor and delivery staff, tough work! i think you are on the right track with the apples. Maybe if you stick to things you can grab and eat quickly, when you have the chance, you have a better chance of eating more and not having to eat when you get home.

Hang in there buddy! You are doing great and you are really trying to kick the bad habits. One cookie is not bad at all, it could have been worse! Just do like GoPackers said and get you some foods that are quick and easy to have on hand, it will help a lot! Apples, carrots, celery, anything that you can just grab. Also try the 100 cal packs of stuff, those really get you though sometimes when you don't have time. Chin up! Have a wonderful weekend!

Keep it up! i agree with everyone on here, one cookie is not going to kill you, you should be proud that you just had the one! that's will power! i would have ate the entire package and then taken a nap. you're doing great, you'll get your groove, it just takes some adjusting. by the way, your survivor comment made me crack up, so that should boost your day, you made someone else smile!
