No, I'm not going off the diet forever...just for today. I had a burst of rebellion this morning against making yet another boring breakfast and lunch, all the fiddly vegetable chopping and portion counting and all the rest. So I had a ham sandwich for breakfast and bought my lunch - TWO pieces of cheese pizza from the cafeteria. Not overly yummy, but at least it wasn't yet another round of bleeping blankety-blank rabbit food.
I've been on this diet for over a month and I think I've only managed to stick strictly to it one day out of all that time. I am eating better food, to be sure, but I am tired of feeling like a daily failure because I eat more than I should and don't seem to exercise. Nor am I enjoying my food the way I used to. So I am taking a break for today and maybe tomorrow, and then this weekend I am going to plan a new approach. I know I need to do this, but I am fed up with struggling to no effect.
Thanks, Tiffany, for your suggestion of a juice fast. Maybe a couple of days of that would be a good start.

If you are feeling that way about the diet you have chosen, it's time to step back and reevaluate. Try something else that you have an easier time sticking to. On top of it all, hormones are probably playing games with you right now...always fun, NOT! A break sounds like a good idea for the mental health.
You do understand - thank you! I plan to reevaluate a lot of things this weekend, and that will definitely include my diet and exercise plan, since it's not working for me at all.
