I am late to the new year health kick this year. I am of course blaming that on the fact I have a cold etc. I was all motivated on Sunday, when I was obviously planning on starting my healthy living on Monday morning. Unfortunately, I didn't plan much further than that. No meals planned, or time set aside to make food etc. Just stumbled through the day and ate what came to hand!
The thing is, I really need to lose weight. I'm just over 16st when I should be between 9&10st for my height. I have a little girl that I need to keep up with, and would dearly love a second child. I'd like to take a brisk walk without getting out of breath, and not feel like my hubby would be embarrassed to see me. I plan to lose weight all the time, then sabotage myself once I get past the planning stage. I'm not sure why I do this, constantly giving up and thinking I can start again tomorrow. One day, I'll run out of tomorrow's!!!
So I am starting a diary on here. Will make notes of what's working for me, what I'm struggling with etc. Hopefully somewhere along the line others may be able to offer me tips, or I might inspire someone else.
First things first. Baby steps. Tomorrow I can eat what I like. BUT I MUST drink 3 litres of water / squash and write down all food and drink in my diary (my paper one - don't worry I won't bore you all with every last cup of tea!!)
The water thing - I wouldn't normally aim for 3l of water but I have a horrible cold I want to get rid of.
Tomorrow I shall write more about me (perhaps someone out there is interested, though I doubt it.....). For now, it's off to Bedfordshire. Night all X
