Monday 19th March 2007

Weight - 10 st 8 lbs (148 lbs)
Lbs Gained - 2 lbs OMG
Lbs to lose - 28 lbs


Heaviest weight 1997

I soooooooooooooooo hope I have lost a lb or 2 this week.

Don't know how I did it but somehow (despite the exercise and not eating too badly as I thought) but I have gained 2 lbs this week. I feel like saying oh sod it and giving up but I won't. Feel really crappy about my weight, feel cross and depressed and fed up.

Am aiming to follow slimming world as this is what I originally lost my weight with(see pics here at lower weight). I do not want to get back to my heaviest.Heaviest weight pics .

5 Diet Cliches That Never Come True ( found this on the internet)
We read these claims so often, that they become like wallpaper. Do these dieting clichés that adorn our books and web sites really come true?

Eat Your Favorite Foods and Still Lose Weight
Great - that means I can still eat 3 BK Triple Whoppers a day!

W atch the Pounds Melt Away
Since when does fat melt?

Lose Weight Fast
Rapid weight loss is rare, and often never lasts.

Lose Belly Fat First
Tummy fat normally hangs on for dear life. There is no such thing as spot reducing.

No More Hunger Pangs
Let's see, if you go from eating 4,000 calories per day to 1,500 per day - I suspect there might be the odd hunger pang until your body adapts.

Tuesday 20th March

 

(7am) Isn't it funny how when you wake up in the morning and it's bright and sunny you feel more motivated and determined (and able) to 'diet' better that day!!!! I know it's cold out though (very deceiving). I had a good day yesterday and am pleased with how I ate although I was not at all active (slept loads during the day and had trouble sleeping at night unfortunately). Really and truly I should go for a nice long walk today, I really should make the effort. Maybe I will. Even a brisk short walk round the block would be better than nothing.

I need a cup of coffee then I will get to work on the house (ie tidy up). I am aiming to go for some sort of walk after lunch even if it is just up to the village before getting R from school (it is 1 mile up to the village).

Wednesday 21st March

Weight - 10 st 6 lbs (146 lbs)
Loss - 2 lbs

I wouldn't normally weigh myself midweek but felt like hopping on the scales this morning and YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEE I am 2 lbs down, I have lost that blasted 2 lbs I had gained when I got weighed on Monday. Makes me want do to better on my 'diet'. It's sunny outside again and it's 7am (work this morning - I get picked up at 8pm).

Good morning at work. Had lunch in hospital, I got a chicekn salad, a yogurt and a banana...very good of me! I have to go shopping this afternoon (R is out to tea) and I have to get in some healthy foods.

Am going dancing tonight for an hour, R said she wants to come to but I dunno if she will join in? It would be nice if she joined in, though I know she is nervous about it, we have been practising some steps at home.

Gerard Way (MCR)

 

The My Chemical Romance concert was FANTASTIC. I am soooooo glad we've now seen them live, so so GREAT. J said he has never seen so MANY emo's in one place!!! And he said he has never been with so many people where he just looks the same as everyone else!! I loved how everyone was dressed, kind of emo/punky, I waish I was at least 20 yrs younger I would wear all that kind of stuff!
We had seats in the centre block. The atmosphere was so great and everyone went wild when MCR came on. I'd definately go and see them again.
We got home 2,30am on Friday morning. I had to go to work, J to school and Neil was working from home. J did get sent home just after lucnch as he felt so crappy (totally knackered I guess).

I have not been very good on my diet this last few days unfortunately. The sun is shining and when we woke up a short time ago (8.30 am) I said to Neil shall we go for a nice long walk today (and was met with a big groan). J is off the the cinema with some friends.

Pic of me in Benodet (2003) where I was at my lowest weight of 8 st 3 lbs (115 lbs)...and to think I thought I was still fat at the time. I wish I weighed this again right NOW!!!

Sunday 25th March 2007

R and I going to wash car today.

Arghghghgh slight hangover ( am never going to drink that much ever again). Don't hold up any hope of weight loss this week. Must try harder. I think I'll stick slim pic of me on fridge so that when I go to eat I will see it and remind myself that I CAN do it if I make the effort.

We didn't clean the car after all. I have been fairly good on diet plan today, though I must admit when Neil said he was going to get petrol I was tempted to say "can you get some chocolate".....but I didn't.

I've been looking at our France holiday dvd and wish oh so much that I could get back down to being in the 8 st's (under 126 lbs).
