Diet Fatigue

I am suffering from something quite difficult to put my finger on this week. I didn't get my usual sense of clean slate from the Monday weigh in and Tuesday's new food diary. The new food diary usually gets me feeling all efficient and prepared but to be honest, I don't even know what I have done with it. I have been lacksadaisical in filling it in, trying to remember what I ate the morning after I ate it and guesstimating syns and portion sizes. Perhaps it is diet fatigue. I am just sick and tired of being on a diet.

Other excuses I can think of are :

• I am bored of my job and apathetic about my work place. In the last week I have encountered possibly the worst appraisal/salary review process ever conceived. Where on earth would it make sense to review someones salary BEFORE reviewing their job description and professional development for the year? It's just ridiculous. It makes me want wine.
• I have been studying for what seems like forever. Its draining and time consuming and although I am enjoying my course a lot I feel like I really just want to finish it and get the piece of paper now. Partly because the sooner I finish studying the sooner the training contract with my employer runs out and I can get another job! A proper one who properly reviews and rewards people for bloody hard work. This makes me want chocolate.
• Every social event I ever encounter is a diet nightmare and I just don't want to have to think about it any more. Dieting is just too hard when you have friends suggesting you go out for curry or pizza.
• I really like pizza. Ditto for chocolate and wine.

Anyway, I think I just wanted a moan ... I think eating the most boring ham salad in the world has put in me in a mood for the afternoon. I feel a little better for venting.
