When I have gone Off Plan, I can usually look back and identify the trigger. It is usually some type of anxiety or feeling overwhelmed. I am trying to remember the old HALT technique- to not let myself get too Hungry, Angry, Lonely or Tired.

Last Off Plan day was about 2 weeks ago- a family gathering where my brother and his wife were arguing, and 2 nieces were doing sisterly bickering all day. No one got super-loud, but there was just this pervasive rudeness, and unpleasantness...

Anyway, I intend to keep doing my best to live and learn, to adopt strategies, and to make my health a priority. This forum helps tremendously!
