We'll have started today, will eventually be an Exante girl so am posting my diary here! After much research and soul searching I had decided to start Exante this week, I have a week off work for half term so figured I could keep myself busy walking dogs, watching films and reading a good book but it wouldn't be so bad if I felt a bit feeble, I could spoil myself with a bubble bath or an afternoon nap. Then disaster struck, my beloved Moggie Minor, Doris, failed her MOT....spectacularly...and had to spend what I'd saved for it...plus my Exante fund to get her sorted as my partner is using her for work at the moment...I just don't have the money to shell out on my bumper pack untill payday...the week after my week off!!! aaarghhh!!
I had really got my head around starting and was so dissapointed, then after a very random out of the blue conversation (again in the loo...there's a theme here I'm sure) a lovely lady from work who has reciently lost quite a bit of weight offered me a weeks supply of her CD shakes the ones she doesn't like....she hadn't told anyone at work that's how she had lost weight as she was a bit uncomfortable with it. We both work with young adults and often have to deliver healthy eating talks and also deal with students who have eating disorders...I understood...but so glad I had been open with her or I would of missed the oportunity to make this my week!!!
So had a shake for breakfast and half a tesco's ultra slim bar at about 12ish, had two black coffee's and two pint's of water...and have spent the whole morning peeing for Britain and have decided the bathroom need's livening up a little if I am going to be spending so much time in there!!!
And can I say....I'm bloody starving....and have a banging headache....but really really really want this to work.....when will I stop feeling hungry....I know...a few days till ketosis set's in.....will keep looking at all the inspiring stories on here...and if anyone else is a newbie and want's to be a buddy...let me know.
I weighed in yesterday at 16st 7lb, so some good ish news, had managed to keep off half a stone of my last two stone loss at slimming world, I always manage to get around two stone off in around four months and then loose my way....I am an emotional eater and will eat for any occation. I can't walk past the fridge without looking in it and really want to break the cycle.....the binge diet cycle that is...not my unused bicycle that is rusting away in the garage.
I had promised myself last year when I turned 40 that I wouldn't be fat in my forties having spent most of my 30's watching my weight creep up from 11st to where I am know. I carry my weight well...I think.....and people are alway shocked when I tell them what I weigh. I have been wearing size 16/18/20 for the last five years or so and really want to get into a 12/14. I am worried about loosing to much boob though as my boob's have been my saving grace...I go in and out....just too far out!! I hate having to perminantly suck my tummy in...and rearrange my top so it's not excentuating my tummy....you know that pulling it out so it doesn't cling thing....anyway I'm rambling..and am no way near as elequant as some of the post's on here...just trying to keep myself busy I supose.....well is it time for another glass of water..and a trip to my boring loo?...think it is...thanks for listening!!
Big...but not so big soon...Love Clare.
