And then the stress of "omigod why hasn't my period started what could have happened whhhhhy??" would delay it even longer. Go ahead and take a cheap over the counter test, by now if that is negative you can relax and your period will probably start. And then consider something more reliable than "it's only for a few seconds babe."

Less than a week of changed habits is very, very unlikely to have caused any major cycle changes. Cycle changes are caused by either excessive stress (through exercise or limited dietary calories over an extended period of time) or from hormone changes due to body composition changes, when it comes to a changing lifestyle making cycle changes... so... I would say this probably has nothing to do with your less than a week of changing things up. Periods are not clockwork, you can only know a predicted day for it to start, there's no guarantee that your body will start it on the day you predict. I'd just chill out unless you hit more than a week over. If still late, and you've had sex, might be time for a test.
