Week and weigh in number one!

Yay!!! Loss!!! And I think a fairly good loss? (considering i definitely have NOT been an angel this week!)

Have decided to get more involved with Buddy slim! And have invited some buddies - am thinking some encouragement and buddies to share mine and their progress will spur me on! So fingers crossed!
Was also thinking of joining one of those challenge groups but they looked really complicated! (or maybe that’s just me? :)

Goals for this week:
I’m going to try to have Saturday sweet day like I did when I was about ten! Have some kind of treat once a week so I don’t feel like I’m not allowed anything!
Try to limit wheat and dairy to almost nothing.
Do some form of exercise every day.

Think that will do for now - thankyou if you are reading and have accepted my buddy request - I hope we can help each other on our way - I’m in this all the way now!

Good Luck!

It started so well…

At the beginning of this week - week 1. Exercise was brilliant - diet was brilliant and the scales were really moving (I know you’re only supposed to weigh in once a week but I can’t help it!). Then I starting getting stressed, had two job interviews and started ‘rewarding’ myself. I only realised when I felt really sick this evening that it was because I hadn’t stopped. Coincidentally I had stopped something - exercise… So am considering when to weigh in and I wouldn’t be surprised if I now have gained….. crap.

Oh well… I know my response to food is emotional triggers, I just have to learn not to give in to them…

I guess if at first you don’t succeed….

Overdid it

On the exercise tonight - don’t you know pump it up. you got to pump it up!

The aerobics bit was alright, it was mainly the bums and tums bit. Ending up feeling so sick - think because my stomach muscles are so unused to being worked… so only made it halfway through. If I’m being honest I was punishing myself cos I ate a caramel shortcake this evening. Yesterday we brought a pack of 3 to have for pudding and I just went along with it and ate it, and then today He went off gigging overnight and I’ve sat and eaten the last one. Knew I would. Its so hard when you know its sitting in the fridge. Its hard too cos I’m still in the mind set of eating really shit whenever I’m on my own cos I know no-one will know.

I also REALLY need to stop drinking diet coke. Its just crap, but I’m slightly addicted, it feels naughty cos its sugary tasting. But all the sweeteners and aspartame have got to be awful for me. I’ve also starting eating hard cheese again and that’s really bad for me and my throat so am gonna really try to kick the habit. God I’m still shaking. need to place more moderation on the exercise - bring it in more gradually.

My Beginning

Is more different than I would have thought - Generally a size 12 on top but 14 to 16 now on the bottom. Can’t get into a few pairs of trousers and some dresses and have developed a permanent line on my stomach where it creases over. mmmm. niiiiice.

Had to buy a one piece for recent holiday and would love to wear for France at end of August.
Also I have 2 photos shoots for promo stuff in Sept and would like to be looking my best..

So here goes…
