Just say No to Nachos

Well as in true tradition when ever I start a diet the deli at work serves one of the only 4 specials that they make like every 3 months that I order it's either: French dips, Baked potatoes, Taco Salads or Nachos and today was Nacho Day.  I didn't blow my diet. Day 3 has ended with a few tweaks here and there but technically not cheating and yet I am frustrated.  I told DH I already feel like I can't continue to eat like this for the rest of my life.  It is so much work!  I have succumb to the easy fast food life and at this time that is all that feels like I can fit into my schedule and now I am having to find time to cook 3 meals a day just for me & that doesn't include what I have to make for the rest of my family because Mommy is eating food that isn't normal food anymore.  I know if I keep this up my kids will eventually follow in my eating footsteps but for now there is no point in causing more stress by trying to force diet food on my kids. Anyways enough on that my kids and their eating habits could have their own blog.  Anyways, all this to say I need to figure out how to make this easier.  Working and coming home knowing I have to thaw & cook when I am starving doesn't work for me.  I am sure the key is in planning and prepping.  We have a hectic weekend ahead of us and I am throwing a congrats party for my little brother who is finally getting a Pastor position at our Church. So I have to consider how I am not going to blow my diet when for these first two weeks the set snacks and meals are pretty non negotiable.  I am still very skeptical about this whole thing working. Especially when I looked at my weigh in paper. Did I tell you that it has me weighed in at 183.9??? And a 1/2 hr before that my scale had me a 181.? I mean 3 almost 4 lbs difference?  Granted I drank 16 oz of water and ate 3 hard boiled egg whites on my way over there but I don't think that could cause that kind of a difference. So now I know my scale is about 3 lbs off and I am not sure what my weigh in will be there next Wed. I feel like it is been so much longer than just 3 days. I am still winning and pressing forward but it isn't easy.
