Do You Eat When Stressed?

    Your going through you dieting week, eating healthy, sticking to your Super Slim plan when disaster strikes. You have a row with your partner, the kids start arguing and your mother in law is coming to visit! Now you feel totally stressed !

    Do you turn to food, does the following days eating ring true with you?

     

    Breakfast
    The good start:

    1 x grapefruit

    1 slice of wholemeal toast

    1 x cup skimmed milk

     

    Lunch
    Lunch time blues:

    Small portion lean, steamed chicken with spinach

    1 x cup herbal tea

    1 x chocolate biscuit

     

    Afternoon tea
    Afternoon wobble:

    The rest of the biscuits in the packet

    1 x tub of Hagen Daas ice cream with choc chip topping

    1 x family pack jaffa cakes

     

    Dinner
    What the hell, blow out!:

    4 x bottles of wine (red or white)

    2 x loaves garlic bread

    1 x family size Supreme pizza

    3 Snicker bars

     

    Late Night Snack

    It really doesn’t matter now:
    Whole frozen Sarah Lee cheesecake (eaten directly from freezer)

     

    Your dieting thoughts

    1. If nobody sees you eat something, it has no calories.

    2. When drinking a diet coke with a chocolate bar, the diet coke cancels out the sugar in the chocolate bar.

    3. When you eat with someone else, calories don’t count if you do not eat more than they do.

    4. Food used for medical purposes does not count (eg. hot chocolate, toast, cheesecake and vodka).

    5. If you fatten up the people around you, you will look thinner.

    6. Cinema related foods have a zero calorie count as they are part of the entertainment package and not counted as food intake.
    7. Biscuit pieces have no calories because breaking the biscuits up causes calorie leakage.

    8. Foods licked from spoons and forks have no fat if you are in the process of cooking something.

    9. Anything eaten while standing up has no calories due to gravity and the density of the calorie mass.

    10. Food consumed from someone else’s plate has no fat as it rightfully belongs to the other person and will cling to his/her plate!

     

    And remember, ladies, STRESSED spelt backwards is DESSERTS!!

    More seriously remember, follow this plan and you will end up wearing that dessert stressfully on your hips.

    The Moral: after a day like this all you would feel is guilty, full, and very de motivated. When you have a problem or you feel stressed, before you start the downward spiral of eating Stop! Ask yourself the question; if you over eat is the problem going to go away? Are the kids going to stop arguing? Will it stop your mother in law from coming around? The answer is NO!

    If your having a bad day and you need a shoulder, why not go onto the Super Slim members forum and chat to other online slimmers who know exactly how you feel.
