Christmas Weigh In!!

Hey guys!!

Well I must admit that I thoroughly enjoyed Christmas and did completely fall off the wagon!
I still faced the scales tonight though and faced a 4.5lb gain but, to be honest, I expected more and im not going to stress myself out for enjoying a once a year occasion.
I have plans for New Years Eve which do include food and yes I will indulge but then in the new year im back with full force and ready to lose some serious weight and to become the person ive always wanted to be!
Steve bought me a Polar Heart Rate Monitor and Shaun T's Hip Hop Abs Workout DVDs for Christmas which I know definitely will help me so theres no reason why I shouldnt reach my goals.
So Watch this space!!

Its beginning to look alot like.....

Hey guys!

I will hold my hands up and admit it....yes I am struggling at the moment!
Everyone I know is throwing caution to the wind and indulging in Christmas festive-ness but im fighting and trying not to let myself do that despite how hard it is for me!
Ive thought about a plan for Christmas and have decided i am going to fall off the wagon on Christmas day and Boxing day and then im going right back on plan then its go time for the "New Year, New Me" plan!
So heres to planning and hopefully it all goes to plan!

Until tomorrow xxx

Off to a good start!

Hey guys!

So today was my first day back on the plan after last week and its been a great day and im still within my syns limits.
My new thing is snacking on clementines at my desk at work whenever I feel hungry or have a glass of water to help fill me up which really helps!
I also had Hifi Light bars in my desk draw at work so I had one of those when the biscuit tin was offered round with the 10am coffee round! 
I came home and made a batch of sweet potato and carrot soup with a pinch of coriander and black pepper and it tastes lush! Ive separated it into 2 containers to take to work for lunch tomorrow and Thursday.
Im feeling very positive about the week ahead and im hoping for a good loss next monday!

Until tomorrow xxx

Nothing to gain, everything to lose!

Hey guys!

So I went and faced the consequences of my actions this week and weighed in and I had a 1lb gain. To be honest I thought I would of gained more so a small part of me is pleased. However, a gain is a gain and im still not happy that I let myself slip. So ive drawn a line under the past week and im going to attack the coming week with gusto!
Im planning food and currently have pasta cooking for tomorrows lunch to mix with reduced fat pesto, yummy!!
Im determined to have a good loss before Christmas week and there is nothing to stand in my way! I have even bought Hi-Fi light bars so that I can have one when there are biscuits and sweets around at work!

Until tomorrow xxx

The struggle

Hey guys!

Well tomorrow is weigh in day and I will hold my hands up and say im expecting a gain this week as it has not gone to plan.
Yes im struggling with the fact its nearly Christmas and there is so much yummy food around and I keep having the "ah one wont hurt" thought which I know I shouldnt!
I also know that my issues with arent just going to disappear in 3 weeks and I know I will have up and down weeks.
Im going to face weigh in tomorrow, whatever the result, draw a line under this week and go at it full speed for the last week before Christmas!

Until tomorrow xxx

Changes

Hey guys!

Today has been a great day! Admittedly I have used all 15 syns from my daily allowance but thats what they're there for right?!!
With the new year fast approaching ive been thinking about the saying "New year, new me" and have decided that 2014 is definitely going to be my year. Im planning a new hairstyle, wearing make-up more often and really taking pride in my appearance and image. No more standing in the shadows, im going to become the person ive always longed to be!
Ive also planned a couple of fitness challenges for 2014 too. Im going to do The Race For Life in June with my sister Leanne and then in November ive set myself a tougher challenge of doing Monster Race which is an obstacle race with friend Mark.
So watch this space, 2014 is going to be an epic year!!

Until tomorrow xxx

Stay the same!

Hey guys!

Sorry its been a while but the past week has been crazy!
I stayed the same this week but I understand why as we had a birthday buffet at that had so much food it lasted over 2 days! So I deserve to maintain! However there is nothing to get in my way between now and Christmas so im going all out to atleast get my half a stone award before Christmas!

Until tomorrow xxx

Looking back to go forward

Hey guys!

Today has been another good day, ive had 12.5 syns as I had a couple of chocolate digestive biscuits at work today (4 syns each) but im still within my syns limits so its no big deal.
Ive been looking through some of my old pictures on my Facebook page and its like a story of my battle with my weight. In some im big, then smaller, then bigger again, then smaller again and it just goes on! Im literally the human equivalent of a yoyo!
My first aim is to get back to what I was at my 18th birthday party (see attached pic). I cant believe I thought I was big then, id love to look like that now.
I shall keep going an never give up until I reach my goal despite it feeling so far away at the moment.

Until tomorrow xxx
