I suddenly realised in January when my youngest daughter turned 3 that I could no longer blame baby-weight for the spare tyre Imm carrying around my middle. I had a bit of a flirtation with slimming world, but it didn't really suit me - the fact that I could eat whatever quantities of free food meant that when I did go on a junk food bender, my stomach was happy to accept more and more of whatever it was that I was pigging down. I've been calorie counting on and off since April (more off than on!) However a fortnight ago I decided enough was enough and the rolls have gotta go!
Apart from anything else, I feel like it's starting to affect my relationship with my husband. He's quite a hottie, and I wasn't bad myself when we got together when I was 21. He's retained his looks and his figure, and although I *think* he still finds me attractive, because I don't feel it myself I am starting to have confidence issues and *teeny* jealousy issues.
So on Saturday I weighed in at 9st 13lb, and my goal is 8st 13lb (I think)
Enough of why i'm doing it, anyhoooo!
Food today:
B - chewee cereal bar (gross, but was in a rush) 92cal
L - homemade ham sandwich, apple and a small bag of crisps 427 cal
D - will be fishfingers, a potato waffle and beans at 474cals - I usually don't touch stuff like that but we have a very busy evening ahead!
I'll have a large banana at some point too.
Exercise will be half an hour on the Ea Active, about 130cals worth.
And then I'll collapse on the sofa with a large vodka and tonic!
