Get thee behind me jelly babies!

Hey folks! Yesterday was a CBA kind of day. No inspiration for breakfast or lunch so again it was grab what I could find before setting off for work. Now that is not good. With meetings back to back from when I arrived it was 11.30 am before I could contemplate eating anything. I had even only managed 2 sips of a coffee so I was beyond eating by then but you just know you have to, right? The trouble is, in situations like that, once I start I can't stop!!! It took all my willpower just to eat the fruit and yoghurt that I had. I tussled in my head about escaping to the staff room in the hopes that it was someone's birthday and goodies would be there!!

Another two meetings later and lunch was very late. I grimaced at my couscous (I really can't get a liking for it) and threw on some chicken. Promising myself a Muller Light yoghurt and a large mug of coffee I manged to eat most of it! Trouble is, again I had the feeling I wanted to keep on eating! So, I busied myself with emails as a diversion tactic. Then ...... I sabotaged myself!  I went to the staff room to look for someone and the table was laden with bags of donuts - jam and custard ! I re-arranged the bags and was very sorely tempted but told myself 'NO!' So far so good, but then I spied a bag of jelly babies. Now they are such a weakness of mine that there was no way I could resist. :(
my two main sweetie weaknesses are said jelly babies and liquorice all sorts. Once I start I cannot stop until they are all gone. So sad for a grown woman!

Feeling really cross with myself I went home to cook dinner. Now that was planned. I made mustard onions on pork which is from the 100 Extra Easy days. It sure was easy to make and I thought was quite nice though the onions turned out a little sweet for my taste.

There were mumblings of dislike from others though which set me onto thinking about sweet things again. That's a real pattern with me - I am annoyed so I treat myself. How silly? I know I do it so I allow myself to do it unchecked! Anyway, the thoughts of perhaps a hot chocolate to use up my HEa or a HiFi for my HEb did nothing to curb my growing annoyance. I knew if it went on I would sabotage my whole day, give in to the demon jelly babies and find chocolate or worse to devour. So, there was nothing for it ........... By 9.30 pm I was in bed with the tv. Food was all the way downstairs and it truly had been a CBA kind of day! Shame on you jelly babies!
