I hope writing in here keeps me on the right path.
I have always been overweight. I remember being called fatty when I was in year 2!!! So I've lived like it for a long time and got used to it enough to live.
I have never liked the way I looked but could never stick to diets. I could blame my mum for only buying processed food, my Dad for only eating takeaway, but I still overate after. I'd eat and eat and eat, and then eat some more! I used to steal crisps when I was young because I 'had' to eat.
I'm at a happy, positive place in my life and my head right now and hope this can keep me from going to junk when I crave.
The biggest reason for me to loose weight is for my children. My son isn't an issue with overeating as we struggle to get him to eat, but my Daughter is going to be just like me if I don't change. I can't let her grow up eating unhealthy and not exercise like I did. I couldn't live with myself if she felt like I did about myself.
I want to run about on parks with them, I don't want them to have the fat mum in the playground.
I do want to do this for me too. I want to feel like I look good, I want to run upstairs, not cover up in Summer. I don't want to be sweaty so much.
So,
Here I go.
I'm on my 2nd sw week and so far so good.
I've lost 11lb so far.
I am starting to crave chocolate though. I 'accidently' ate half a nestle polar bear yesterday as my daughter didn't want it. 12.5 syns! I was shocked. I had enough syns so its OK. I don't want to use my syns on chocolate though when its that high and I'd rather not eat it at all.
My food today has been good,
Not really. :-( the kids didn't want their chocolate egg and I took a bite. I am proud that I stopped myself eating more, but I don't want to cave in and eat it at all as now I want more, Grrrr!
I WON'T do it again. I won't.
Apart from that its been great.
Mushrooms on toast for brekkie
Plum as a snack
Tuna pasta for lunch
Burger, chips, mushroom and onions for dinner.
I am craving something sweet, but not hungry for it so I'm trying to ignore that.
