That whole South Beach Diet thing while studying for the bar? Yeah. Dumb. Not that the diet plan is hard. It’s actually very user-friendly with no measuring and what-not, however, it does take the teensiest bit of forebrain space to plan a little to avoid eating hard boiled eggs 24/7 just because it’s easy.
I don’t have any forebrain space for rent. My forebrain is fully occupied with note cards, lectures and anxiety.
So I ditched dieting until after the bar. I felt like a quitter for oh, about 20 seconds, and then I happily pounced on an apple.

That’s it? An apple? Pshaw girl, that’s still perfectly good diet-time food even if it isn’t by the book. Anyway, comfort is everything when you’re stressed, so I’m with you, focus on the self care.
I read this somewhere recently:
Diet is a dirty word; whenever I hear it I wash out my mouth with chocolate.
