[QUOTE="elaineadams, post: 616899, member: 79437"] I did an interview for a pharmaceutical company and they roared when I told them that I'm only human, therefore have a habit of "falling off the wagon" and then struggling to get back on it. My downfall comes when I have a week of arriving home at 10pm having been out since 7am....(and not a drop of alcohol involved) absolutely shattered, hungry and shaking. I chuck the first non cookable bit of food (a cake or a biscuit) I find down my neck, and follow it with a glass of Ribena or a cup of green tea with cinnamon left over from the morning, while waiting for half a dozen slices of bread to toast, and of course the toast is slathered in extremely high level monosaturates "butter"...I just need food and sleep quick. What I should really do is prepare something low carb the night before and leave it in the fridge, but it takes so much effort. My "I must get back on the wagon" flag is the annual trip to the GP for bloods and then results...I manage to get everything back down a non meds level in 12 weeks. This is why the annual test does not really show a picture of what is going on. [/QUOTE]
