Oooh, I'm actually having one of 'those' weeks.
Background - I've lost about 35 kgs by just focusing on eating nutritiously and exercising more. Treats are fine, but for me they have to be 'treats' and not binges (emotional eater)
This week, my uni assignments were all due, I'm working full time, normal life stuff, dogs of course, plus my fairly new (and much more intensive) more active lifestyle... it just got me stressed, tired (lack of sleep) and turned into a cycle of being really, really time poor this week.
I still ate healthy meals, but my snacks! Oh my God! But that's ok, life happens. I'm pleased to say that they were somewhat portioned controlled each time I had something BUT I had a fair bit. Also, I work at a bakery. Lots of off-cuts and quality control (ie, sampling) and I can usually say no, but this week I basically just surrendered and sampled everything.
But the pressure is off now (last assignment submitted just before midnight on Saturday) so it's back to making some better choices.
Edit - I just love food - sweet and savoury, junk food and veges and everything in between. And I've always had a big appetite. The worst thing I could do is go on a strict 'diet' and walk around starving lol. No, I just had to really look at what I was eating and in what quantities and swap things around so I was eating the more nutritious stuff.
