I'm sorry to hear about your dad- even harder at the same time of the (two!) accidents. I really hope you're now on the med.
I had a motorbike accident in July and have one of two surgeries on my knee so far (last op in 3 weeks time.) I haven't been able to work for 9 months so my my diet has gone off track as I've been at home. I completely empathise with you and am currently on anti depressants as being stuck has home has really got me down. Sick of feeling sorry for myself and time to get my body back!
I almost made it through the day but got veryhungry in the evening and ashamedly gave into the cravings
Your advice about the upset stomach is really helpful- I did feel a bit sick today after eating cereal on a stomach full of the maple lemonade!
I think I will wait until week two before looking up recipes
I've found before that listening to a motivating song (cheesy but it works) or doing a couple of sets of a body weight exercise at home really helps me to forget about the cravings (or at least reminds me why I'm on the diet to begin with!) I promise to keep up with the diet tomorrow and have faith in me because I really think today was my final blow out!
Congratulations on your two year anniversary! I think it's a blessing in disguise that you are dieting over valentines day as I think it would be a lot more special to celebrate on a day when everyone else isn't and gives you guys more of a reason to make a special effort having had to wait.
Let me know how you get on tomorrow and I'm sure I will be sending a message shortly complaining that I'm close to giving in to a giant bar of chocolate and need some encouraging words
