So I’m starting this food journal before Christmas because I have gone crazy. I need to admit it and I need to account for the food obsession I have. I cannot control myself at the minute, eating everything in sight and not even worrying when I’m full or not. I feel ashamed of what I’m eating and the amounts I’m eating, I look and feel like a pig.
I started dieting in April 2012, I weighted 14st 1 lb, not massively overweight but my BMI was 28.2 and I felt and looked awful. So I started weightwatchers, I lost 39lbs – I looked great, I dropped dress sizes and people could really see the difference, but I couldn’t. I still felt fat and flumpy, ugly and huge even though you could see I was the thinnest I could possibly be. I just accepted that I’m never going to like the way I look unless I change my mind set. So I started to do that, and was doing well, I started to like the way I looked then I eased up of the dieting and started living my life again. Then gained 17lbs. So I’m half way back to square one.
I think the issue was I changed to Slimming World, I loved the idea of eating carbs, unlimited carbs! Then I struggled with the flexibility of it, I have college until 9pm at night time so I found it hard cooking quick meals when I got home. So if I went off the rails one night the whole week turned out to be a write off, then I completely stopped dieting. Now I have started to hate the way I am again.
I want to stop this before it gets to the point of it was before, so I decided to make this journal. To monitor my eating until Christmas and see where I’m going wrong, then in the New Year I can lose the weight again and concentrate on more important things. The journal will also help me vent about other food related issues I have.
Also, I have a food ********* account, my name is fooddiary_ww_jess so add me if you use it
So anyway, food, this week I’ve been eating like mad! Now I want to eat loads but keep it within my points. So here is my diary starting today! i will weigh in on Saturday, but I’ve given myself the weekly points for Wednesday to Friday to help me manage (49/7 = 7 x 3 = 21).
Weekly Points: 21
Daily Points: 34 (I should have 32 but always found I still lost on 34, so not going to deduct them until I stop losing)
The plan for today is:
Breakfast: Fruit salad (banana, pear, plum, kiwi & grapes) and a muller light (2pp)
Lunch: Sandwich thin, 30g cheese, tomato & cucumber (5pp)
Snacks for work: 2 alpen bars (4pp), cucumber sticks, 2 mini packs of Haribo (2pp), freddo (3pp)
Pre college dinner: soup (2pp)
Dinner after college: veg stir fry with light soy sauce and noodles (7)
Left with (9pp), so maybe a cheeky chocolate bar at college?
Will update later if needed
