Day 2 and 3 of Sureslim


Current mood: optimistic


Sorry I didn't post yesterday, was feeling a little emotional and down. Now if that's not a good enough reason to post then I don't know what is.
Need to find my motivation and have something dangling in front of me to keep me on track. Maybe I can use a trip to Adelaide to met my dear online mate Matthew (who mind you is very cute). I so do want to look good for that.

Well day two was hard due to some emotional eating. I so know that I shouldn't go shopping when I feel like this or when I'm hungry but I keep doing it. So instead of the nice stir fry I'd planned for dinner I ended up eating choc fudge ice cream. At least I'm admitting to it.

Day 3 was so much better, stuck to the sureslim plan and even drank my 2 litres of water today. Yes I did end up having the stiry fry for dinner and it was so yummy. I even have enough for another meal. It might just be because I'm back at work and busy trying to see where everything is at.


Now I just have to get motivated to exercise. I have the alarm set for 6 a.m. to go for a hour long walk. Hope I can get up when it goes off.

First Day on Sureslim


Day 1 of Sureslim

Current mood: a little depressed

Ok I've finally decided that I need to do something about my weight before I can't fit into all my clothes.

So I bit the bullett and decided to get out my old sureslim program and start following it again. I must admit that the first time I tried this it was really hard to stick to and very restrictive. However, this time I think it might just work, as a lot has happened in my life since then and as a result I find myself single again and not having to worrry about someone else's meals or the food that they have in the visitors area of Long Bay Jail.

So far so good today, the only thing that I really have to get use to is not eatting for 5 hours in between meals and not eating junk. I'm going to take it as a day by day thing and see how it goes.

Scales were not kind to me this morning when I got on them, but what else could I realistically expect when all I've eaten is junk food and drunk lots of alcohol over the past 8 weeks.
For those who read my myspace page this has also been posted on there too. Not too sure about using the blog on myspace as I've made some really good friends on there (one in particular who happens to me male and really cute) and not sure if I want them to read this kind of stuff about me.

Time to Get Serious Again



Ok I've survived my week in Melbourne and have come back feeling like a really fat cat.

Its now time to get serious and lose some weight, if not I will not have anything to wear this winter and can't afford to go out and buy some new clothes. Just need to decide which program I am going to use (once and for all and stick to). Should I go back to weight watchers, use calorie king (which is free), follow the sureslim program I was given this time last year, or follow the CSIRO diet? Decisions, Decisions. I think I will sleep on it and come back to you on this one.

Well that's about all I have at the moment.

Life

Hi everyone, sorry its been so long between posts.


Life has been rather hard over the past few months, we've moved my dad into a nursing home, work has been flat out and David and I have split up (due to him having 2 affairs on me).


I've also spend most of the past few months emotionally eating and have put back on all the weight I had lost this year. I'm going away to Melbourne tomorrow for the F1 and have given myself until I get back to eat what ever and then its time to pull my finger out and get back to eating well, exercising and losing this weight for good.


Oh and a few days ago I decided to cut off most of my hair. It was down near my shoulders and now looks a little like Kai from US TBL (below). Oh and I also dyed it what was meant to be a really dark brown but has come out black. Oh well still looks OK.


This is her picture from her myspace page.
One day when I have my photo taken again, I'll down load a new photo of me, until then you will just have to imagine what it looks like.
