Well a 200gm loss this week. At least it's a loss and not a gain. THANK GOD!
I have learnt this week that I can stop my nibbling and that it's best to keep ultra busy and not buy the foods I will be tempted to nibble on.
So it's 4 kilos now to be gone in 3 weeks. And aiming for 5/6 gym sessions a week until then.

Hey Bren... how are you doing? Have you phased our the nibbling yet? xxxx

Yeah I did phase it out for a few days and then it came back. i have bought some Chromium and today that seems to have settled the carvings and sugar temptations.
Fingers crossed it's only 3pm and that this continues for the next 3 weeks providing I remember to take them!
WI with CDC on Friday afternoon, so hopefully I can do some serious damage before then!!
How are you? Did you have a lovely weekend away?

I had a really good session with my counsellor (shrink) yesterday and basically I have become very obsessed and tight in my mind and body. I allow all my thoughts and energy to be put into my diet. Although even though I cheat with healthy food and am having very very very tiny losses, i am not allowing myself to live and have a life and freedom. As a result my body is not functioning properly and I am not allowing my body to loose the weight by holding in all this depression, angst and negative focus/continual focus and thoughts about food.... 24/7. I never ever shut it off and cant.
She has insisted that I give myself a life for 48 hours. It's a challenge and I need to relax. So it's been 24hours now and I have decided to stop following my diet but have eaten very healthily, 1350 cals for the day and have exercised at home for 40 mins.
I can honestly say today I have felt a glimse of freedom and a very slight weightless feeling in my head where some pressure has been taken away. Lets see how the next 24 hours go and I have a WI tomorrow with CDC so not sure on the damage of this challenge and I am very confused as to what to do with my diet plan?

well despite all that honey you've been doing fabulously. giving yourself a bit of a break could be the answer for you.
i really don't know what to do diet-wise. i hate chopping and changing all the time
i am going out tonight though, so if i'm going to change, today would be a good day to do it. it will be far easier for me to find something healthy to eat somewhere with cal-counting than it would be with atkins, ha.

Thanks girls, just thinking about things and not sure but last 2 days of freedom I have counted cals.
Yesterday 1200 and today about 1400 and both days i have done 40 mins of a work out at home. Skip eopr, arm weights and sit ups and legs with the fit ball. But I dont include exercise. I'm thinking of going back to this and loosing about 1 - 2 lbs (preferably 2lbs) a week. Going to WI tomorrow so will decide then.
I definitely feel my mind has been holding me back and has been controlling my body.

Well I have just added up my cals and i have done 1250 today not 1400! Whoooo Hooo.
But very importantly I woke up feeling better in my head and in my heart today. I will explain things perhaps a little later (prepare for a long post). Glad to say still feel like that now at the end of the day.
Off to do some marking and drink a green tea.
