The plan to stay in bed today worked for all of about two hours. Then I realized that when I take things to that level of inactivity, I tend to dwell on some pretty damn depressing thoughts and I can't work my way around them by just laying down. So now I have to distract myself from my current state of relaxation by doing other things.
That's just fucked up.
Anyway, since my meeting with Christina and Milena came a day earlier than I'd planned, technically I could have stuck to my diet yesterday. I didn't, though, because the change in plans on Saturday caused me to miss going to Dairy Queen, and I wanted a cherry malt, damn it. Given that Friday and Saturday of this week are both going to be off-diet as well (Friday because of previous plans with my parents, Saturday because of the next lock-in), I'm really thinking about taking the whole week off the diet here. Given how little weight I've been losing recently, I'm not too eager to do something like that, but at the same time I have a lot of cravings that I know I won't be able to satisfy in just two days (IHOP, Wendy's Frosty, Papa Murphy's Pizza, Little Caesars Italian Cheese Bread). Especially since I'm going to be making more changes to my diet over the summer (incorporating more "whole foods" into my meals and so on), I wonder if I shouldn't just give myself a week here to try to get all those temptations satiated and then come at the diet all hardcore again starting Sunday. If you don't see any updates on the diet log this week, at least now you know why.
