Hi techgirl,
First: I've been there! Several times.
Second: I'll probably be there again in the future.
What to do? Take a time-out! And reflect on what's going on. What are you trying to accomplish, why and for whom? (If it's not for you, start again).
You must take time out, and drop everything else to think this through. Are you important? Are you worth it? (If you don't think you're worth it, start this meditation again).
Once your goal is clear, look for the obstacles and eliminate them. One possible obstacle is addiction. If so, you need to go dry! Eliminate every possible trigger, even low-carb triggers such as Splenda, sugar-free jello, substitutes, etc. Just eat meat and green veggies for a month or two. Another trigger is hunger. If your work is making you too busy for frequent low-carb meals, then you're need to re-adjust your priorities. You can do exactly what you're doing right now (in any busy schedule), yet make room to care for yourself and needs.
Your part-time shrink,
Wa'il
