Well today I started back at work....it's been a long hard day!!! I had to work tonight too....so 9am - 9pm long day.
Food wise I think I've done ok. I resisted lots and lots of sugary, sweet biscuits and cakes at meeting, chocolate croisants this morning at training session lots of temptation.....but I thought about temptation everywhere and all the offers on and managed not to give in.
had to eat today
wheatabix 2 and sami-skimmed milk
cheese salad brown roll
kit-kat biscuit
home made soup
natural yogurt and prunes
2 nectarines
1 banana
Not too bad but please I managed to resist all the temptation.

Still not feeling very well, I expected to be over this flu symptoms by now but my head is still heavy, throat still a bit sore (more with coughing) and I've developed the most annoying, irritating cough. It feels like a heavy cold now.
Eat wise today:
weetabix 2 and semi skimmed milk
coffee
egg sandwich (2 slices of wholemeal bread)
1 kit-kat
diet coke
prunes and natural yogurt
peach
bowl of fruit and fibre with semi-skimmed milk
Playing Fields of Athenry on guitar, its a sad song about a young Irish man who is being sent to Botany Bay as punishment for stealing to save his family from starving to death. .....you can hear it on You Tube.

Had a busy day at work. Did an arts and craft session with 5-7 year olds today. It was hectic but very enjoyable. Also preparing a Family History session to get people started looking up their family tree. It's facinating, I like all the social history aspects of family history for example how occupations change with the times. The population shift from the country to the towns and city's with the industrial revolution. There's so much to find its just knowing where to look.
Overate today!!!
weetabix (2) semi-skimmed milk
kit-kat
home made veg. soup
natural yogurt and pears
scone, cream and a pot of tea
fruit
lasagne
Well over calorie budget!!!
Start all over again tomorrow.

Lami, I love your attitude, "start all over again tomorrow", that pretty much sums it up. We do our best every day and on those days that don't work out so well....no big deal, just get up, dust ourselves off and keep going. We are trying to make lifestyle changes, it sure isn't going to happen overnight. Glad you are in such a positive frame of mind.

Today was busy at work, lots going on.....changes, staff shortages due to holidays, illness and bereavement.....lots of issues connected to part time sessional workers hours being changed!!! The list is endless. To cut a long story short I'm having to cover and I'm knackered. I'm off to sunny climate on Sunday and can't wait.
today ate
weetabix (2) semi-skimmed milk
homemade soup and bread
natural yogurt and pear
lamb and veg. stew
mug of tea
small trifle
Oh dear probably over again......need to get disciplined.....but going on holiday and will knuckle down when I get back.

After searching every nook and crannie I found it in the place I was sure I had put it.....in my bedside drawer it has slipped down the back even although I check and rechecked 100 times....I turned the house upside down looking for it. WHAT A LOAD OF JUNK when I come back from my holiday I'm de-cluttering properly. It's ridiculous all the rubbish...anything ok will go to charity shop all else will be binned.
Ok....now I have to clear up all the mess I've made looking for my stupid passport......
Calm...calm....you're going on holiday....calm relax.....

I've had an eventful month......whilst on holiday an abcess caused me great pain. I had to have an emergency op on return and have been recovering slowly. I also discovered I had a low blood count which could explain why my hair is falling out and my tiredness!!!
I've started eating more red meat and green veg and iron tablets. So hopefully I'll get my blood and energy levels up. I thought I was feeling low because of all the bereavements too.
Anyway, it's good to be back. I want to stay positive despite feeling low and I've joined the gym (at last) I now just need to GO!!

Been busy planning and preparing a training session and then delivering it yesterday. It went really well got excellent feedback in the evaluation forms from participants so that is encouraging to know we're doing something well and worthwhile.
Was at a fancy dress last night it's an annual event (but this year one week early) I went as Anthea from Abba, blond flick wig, sparkly flared jumpsuit and massive white platform boots. There were some fantastic costumes. I did used to prefer when people made their own costumes so much creativity and imagination used to go into them. I wonder if we're stunting our children's creativity when we buy instead of encourage them to come up with ideas. Maybe not, it's just a thought.
Starting my healthy eating again tomorrow! Have not done too well last week so I'll start afresh tomorrow.

Will go tomorrow.

Working today, had grandsons and going out tonight so will dance the night away to make up for (no gym)
oats with semi-skimmed milk
cheese and salad brown roll
McD's fries (large) and Caramel Sundae
2 ripples
Bought lots of fresh fruit and veg and will keep on track with healthy eating from tomorrow.
I drove past my dad's house today and wept....it's a coming up for a year since he passed away. I usually take the long route and didn't think until I was almost there. It probably will get easier but what a miss he is.
On a more positive note I'm expecting my first grand-daughter any time.....we're all excited and so looking forward to that.

My healthy eating is on hold until tomorrow when I start Nir's Holiday Challenge. I've not gone to OTT but I'll really knuckle down tomorrow.
So far I've had:
oats & semi skimmed milk
glass of fresh orange juice
bacon (trimmed off all the fat) roll
2 packets of 1 caramel and 1 berry snack-a-jacks
just going to have chicken, veg stir fry
exercise and watching my intake of food starts seriously tomorrow. I've gained almost a stone since my daughter's wedding in June.

OK.....diet starts seriously today!!! I weighed myself and stayed the same weight...160lb.
Today I received special delivery of the suit I purchased for my son's wedding in June 2010. I can't get the skirt over my hips!! Now that has to be one of my most motivating factors to loose weight to get that skirt over my hips, then zipped up and then fitting perfectly. It 2 sizes smaller than I currently am so it's a big challenge. I remember saying after I put myself under the same pressure for my daughter's wedding 'never again'. But it did sort of work and I did feel good on the day, so here I go again.
Detoxing today and going to gym with daughter tonight.
Oh...the outfit is stunning!!! All I need is a contrasting hat, shoes and bag.

Hey Lami, I bet you are going to look fantastic at that wedding. Sometimes we have to put ourselves under some kind of pressure, actually don't think of it as putting yourself under pressure, just think of that suit as a "motivatonal tool"  .

Soooooo hung over today. I over did the wine last night!!! Was very good and didn't have any nibbles. I couldn't resist stepping onto the scales this morning thinking I had stayed the same after drinking all the wine but I am down 3lb and I don't officially weigh in till Monday. So pleased, it's really encouraged me to keep at it.
Had to eat so far today
Scot's porridge oats
apple
oat biscuits with Phillidelphia light, beetroot and 2 boiled eggs
natural yogurt with 3 kiwi fruits
I'm really sticking to this and the more I do it the better I get a resisting temptation. I'm able to dismiss any thoughts of chocolate etc before they even get a chance to tempt me.
So far so good.

Had to eat today
Alpen with semi skimmed milk
bran biscuits with Philladelphia Light spread
hot chocolate
I don't feel very hungry cooked pizza, lasagna and fritters for family with apple pie and custard and didn't have ANY!!! Result! daughter brought delicious chocolate cakes and I refused that too, so motivation still high.
I joined the gym and love the cumber bike so much I looked locally for a 2nd hand one and got one for £45 what a bargain they're about £300. It's in my living room and I managed to peddle until I got to 250 calories. I'll up that tomorrow. My husband who is really overweight is also peddling away on it. So we'll maybe get a wee competition going!!! Whenever I don't get to the gym or probably as well as the gym I'll sit and peddle away. The part I like best is the back rest it really is so comfortable. Time flew watching tv and just peddling........I hope my interest lasts. I suppose if I start to see result I'll want to do it all the more.
Had grandson over this weekend, their mum is exhausted with the new baby and I know how that feels. The boys are not bother really. Wee one is just adorable and so cute and cuddly it's wonderful holding her and watching her face.

did 150 calories on my bike this morning just going to go on it again now try to beat last nights 250 calories. i had to eat today
alpen and semi skimmed milk
fresh salad with fetta cheese
6 bran biscuits
I've replaced bread with bran biscuits. I'm used to having sandwiches for lunch so it's a new challenge not to just pick one up at lunch time. I was busy at work today so didn't have time to go shopping for fruit so didn't have any today. I did have lots of fresh veg in the salad.
I've not been feeling hungry today and can't work out why not as these last two days I've not eaten as much I usually would. It feels good to be back in control and able to resist temptations. That is probably one of the hardest parts of watching what your eating, resisting temptation. I'll trying to keep up the momentum with my good 3lb loss last week. New week, new me!!!

60 mins in one go on the bike today. I usually do 2 x 30mins one in morning and other in evening. I'm going out tonight so did two in one and was really pleased I had the stamina.
Had a wee shopping spree today there was 20% off and I bought some of the things I liked but thought they were a bit pricey so with 20% off I couldn't resist. I know it's a total rip off I'm sure they put the prices artificially high to start with knowing they will have the 20% off and customers will come in to buy and it's probably just the prices they would have charged to begin with. But hey, I work hard and it's nice to get a treat.
Had to eat today
Porridge
2 x satsumas
1 cheese savoury bap
I also did a detour at the shop I knew I'd go into buy yogurt covered raisins. There is nothing wrong with yogurt covered raisins its just I eat and eat and eat them until the whole packet is finished and they don't do small packets its the huge big ones!!! So I came home and had a satsuma, I'm about to have an apple.
I'm going out tonight dancing with my sisters so it will be a heavy drinking session too. I'll have spirits and diet coke..that should keep the calories down a wee bit. I tried on this most beautiful dress today it was soooo glamerous and gorgeous but it was a bit pricey for the wear I would get out of it so I put my sensible head on and didn't purchase it.
I might try ebay and see if there are any similar dresses for sale there.

Now I can connect the dots and come full circle. You went as Agnetha from ABBA at a costume party. Dancing Queen is my favorite ABBA song. And you are the dancing queen.

Thanks Nancy, I do love to dance. Mama Mia the musical is a fantastic tribute to Abba where all their hits are weaved into a corny story which works well for theatre. The film was ok but it works better with a live audience and the atmosphere that creates.
Been up early since 6am and exercised on bike till 7am. I am now able to burn off 400 calories in that hour. In one week I've doubled my speed over the hour. I'm really getting into this I might even surpass my 10lb goal in Nir's holiday challenge. I'm going to try and blow that goal away!!!
The more I'm exercising the more I'm able to dismiss the food cravings which don't even get very far in my brain now. The mind is one of the most powerful tools we have when it comes to diet and exercise. Get the mind right and the rest will follow. I'm back into my motivated and control zone and very soon I hope to be fitting into that outfit for my son's wedding in June 2010. Also instead of reaching for chocolate bars, biscuits, scones etc. I'm reaching for fruit I don't deny myself these things I just choose when to and when not to eat them.
I read in a daily paper the other day that Kate Moss (UK's most famous model) was lambasted for saying she 'controls' her food intake. A woman who had lost 12stone on a diet said the exact same thing that she 'controls' her food intake. The obese woman was viewed as a huge success and the super model as a 'bad role model' for young girls. I think as long as they eat sensibly they were 'both' right. I suppose the supermodel is known for being 'skinny' and 'smoking' etc. so that's probably why she was lambasted too. A bit unfair though we should all aspire to eat a balanced healthy diet.
Got lots of fresh fruit and veg. Plan to make homemade soup, liver and mashed potatoes for tea.

Did another 60 mins on the bike and burnt another 400 calories.
Had to eat
porridge with cranberries
mushroom pasta with tomato sauce (left over from yesterday)
2 bowls of fresh vegetable homemade soup
2 satsumas
1 banana
2 small handful of mixed nuts and fruit
I plan to get up early again and get on that bike! Got to weigh myself. I'm dreading it as the other day my scales had me at 10s 13lb which is a 4lb weight loss. I had been out the night before and could have be dehydrated!!! I hope not though.

So disappointed to weigh myself this morning and to see the scales go from 10s 13lb on Saturday morning to 11s 4lb this morning despite increasing exercise and controlling food intake!!! I had to have a word with myself to regain my positivity. Do I look any different so what has changed? The change is the scales said 4lb loss and now it's a 1lb gain even although there was no visible change in my appearance. I had to remind myself I was probably dehydrated when I weighted myself on Saturday and learn from this NOT to weigh myself before Monday!!!
After my word to myself I'm back into my positive frame of mind and know if I keep up my exercise and limit my food intake the weight will fall off.
Here's to a better weight loss next week.
