Day 4/5

I missed out on posting yesterday, I was really tired. Yesterday was an ifish food day for me. I had a subway sandwich for breakfast (not the 6gram one, but I'm weening myself onto the god ones slowly). I had a late lunch of a tiny sausage roll, which was so not worth the money I paid for it. Actually my friend bought it for me; I was spending the day with him at this board games day. Then for dinner I had this chicken stew with rice. It didn't smell that appetising, but I ate it all well enough.

Anyway, today I am proud of myself. I had a chicken wrap for breakfast (literally just chicken on a tortilla) and I've had a 6inch sub for lunch, rather than the foot long I usually have.

I've found out that if you eat slowly and drink plenty of water, you don't need to eat that much to fill up. I had actually bought a foot long, telling myself I'll eat half now and the other half later on, not truly believing I would be able to do so. But I did, because I ate slowly and had plenty to drink.

I'm not doing too well on the exercise front though, but it's slowly coming along. I keep telling myself that I will really start off once I move into the new place (we get the keys tomorrow). But I'm worried that I'm only saying that to myself to justify being lazy for now and I'll stay lazy when I get there. Only time will tell.

From today I will stop making up excuses and do what I say I will. I will become healthy, I will be happy with whom I am and I will look hot in skinny jeans.

The last one was for me, because despite what everyone says to me, I will never be comfortable or feel hot wearing skinny jeans at the size that I am. Also in other news I plan to buy a set of scales once we move into the house and force myself to have weekly weigh-ins. That way I can track to progress for you lovely readers

Anyway.........

Off to crunch my carrots.

Day 3

I've come to realize I don't actually know how much I weigh and part of me really does not want to know. If I knew how much I weighed, the reality of the health risks might actually hit me. I am a 19 year old girl, soon to turn 20 and I'm more at risk of a heart attack than my mother.


It's a scary thought and as scary as this step to healthy eating is, I need to make it. Not just to make myself feel good emotionally but for me to be healthy all round. The reality is every oil soaked food I add to my body is clogging more of my arteries. It's not too late for me to get healthy, but I have to act fast to prolong any permanent affects on my body.


Sorry for the downer of a post this time, but I will be put on track. I'm moving into a new place soon, which will just be great for me. I can start off anew. A new place, a new diet, a new schedule, a new me.


Feeling very motivated today.


Anyway.....

Day 2

So I did a lot of running around yesterday and had an apple for breakfast, sounds like a good start yes?

Well it wasn't. I ended up having KFC for lunch and steak and chips for tea. This whole diet thing is not as easy as I thought it was going to be... But I am determined to break this cycle of eating bad and being lazy.

First on my things to do for the week to come is to slowly give up soft drink as it is a huge offender in my diet. I want to try this in small steps and hopefully it will work. As unrealistic as it sounds I want to be nice and skinny by Christmas.

Anyway, time to get going.

Day 1

Today I start my diet.

I hear your applause, thank you, thank you. It's been a while since my last diet, 2 months in fact. Yes I guess I have been in and out of all types of diets since I hit puberty. Turns out those extra hormones are cellulite...

But on to my diet; Healthy eating, meat no bigger than my palm, eat off smaller plates, eat more vegetables... And of course exercising, the worst of them all...

I plan to make myself jog in the mornings. Not only is this a task of forcing myself to jog, it is a task of forcing myself to wake up to do this so called jog. In the cold. Which it will most likely rain, cause it's winter. Well at least I'll run faster to warm up.

I have made this blog to help stick to a diet for once, so any support will help. Or not notice it. Whichever you want.

Anyway, today I bid you goodbye...
