One Day Won’t Ruin Your Diet Here’s the biggie, the one that trips up most of us. It’s the day from hell. It’s the day where you ate a cookie for breakfast, a chocolate bar mid-morning, and gave up completely by lunchtime. You scoffed a double-cheeseburger ready-meal for lunch, and numbed your feelings of guilt and failure with chocolate all afternoon. Now it’s evening, you’ve just polished off a pizza and a tub of ice-cream, and you’re giving up on your diet for good. That’s your big mistake. Not eating the cookie, or the chocolate, or the ice-cream …....... BUT THE GIVING UP! One day, however badly it goes, won’t be at all significant if you stick (more or less) to your diet for the next few weeks. Draw a mental line under the day (or a real line in your diary, if it helps), and start afresh. Once you’ve realized that one cookie doesn’t ruin your day, though, you’re much less likely to have these day-long disasters. You might occasionally eat something you’d not planned, but you’ll shrug it off; maybe you’ll have a bit less lunch or dinner, or you’ll do an extra walk or exercise class, to get yourself back on track.
