My dinner tonight, as you can see below, is prawn and chicken curry. It had lots of sauce left over. Yesterday I would have got out some bread and soaked it up. Today I have had to put a bit more thought into it. So, my current thought is I will boil some eggs and mash the sauce into them so I have curried eggs. Then I can give some to my housemate for sandwiches, and I can have some with lettuce. Yum!

Today I ate:
Protein drink
LC shepherd's pie
Chicken and prawn curry

Setting a start date

2011-08-09T22:56:00.005+10:00

Thanks for your kind words SheZug. I did Comment back but with all the Google upgrades and account merging they are doing these days, unfortunately I can log in here to make a post but not use the same log in to reply to a Comment.

Bizarre.

So anyway, I was saying that the encouragement is much appreciated. Unfortunately it hasn't helped me get started yet, but at least I am prepared when I do ;) ... which ironically is what this post is about.

I'd like to know how you are travelling as well SheZug :)

Getting started...

I am completely at a stand still with getting started. I think about it all the time. I think about all the reasons why. I try different ways of convincing myself to get started.

I put a lot of thought into trying to figure out where the block is. Why don't I want to get started? Surely the carbs I give up are nothing compared to the benefits I would reap. Right?

My current idea is that maybe setting a start date would be the key. Or at least a key to get me moving on this slope.

So I'm going to set something realistic (ie. tomorrow is not realistic). Then I can see the date getting closer and closer and it wont feel as jarring when it arrives.

That's the theory anyway.

And the winning date is .....

Wednesday 31st August!

Cooking

2011-07-10T20:49:00.002+10:00

Did a whole bunch of lc cooking this weekend. Portioned into containers so I have lunches and dinners made for the whole week.

Well, that was the idea. Got part of the way, just not 14 portions yet.

I have:
2 x chicken and prawn curry with "rice"
1 x fish fry with roasted veggies
2 x shepherd's pie
1 x leek and parsnip soup

So only 6 out of 14, and it took me all day.

New scales!

2011-07-01T22:43:00.002+10:00

I bought a set of scales today! I haven't really had any proper scales in my whole life.

Sadly now that I have bought them I have lost motivation to make food changes but hopefully it will come back soon.

Still Kicking

2011-06-23T22:55:00.002+10:00

Still kicking along. I have an aversion of some kind to losing weight and I can't quite put my finger on why. I know there are a lot of pros, I know there are a lot of cons. Why do I lean one way more than the other?

Trying to find motivation

2011-06-21T21:45:00.002+10:00

It's the age-old problem, trying to find motivation for losing weight. It doesn't make any sense to only put some effort into this once I cause a health problem. But it seems that's the track I am on. How ridiculous.

Repeat repeat repeat

2011-06-19T20:35:00.009+10:00

Well I haven't got anything new to say. Just the same as I always do.

My theory is if I don't have anything new that can help me, I may as well just keep repeating the same stuff over and over until I get it through my thick head.

So today I think I will list all the positive things I get out of being fat, and then see if I can find their exact opposite which might eventually help me make a change.

What living a fat lifestyle has going for it:

Every option at a restaurant is open to choose from
I can eat a range of unpackaged and prepackaged foods as I choose
I can eat anything friend's provide when I visit them for dinner
Going out for drinks with friends is always an option
I don't have to take food with me if I stay over at a friend's or otherwise wont get home/to a kitchen to make food
I can skip meals if I want to
I don't have to deal with comments from people about my weight changing
I don't have to get up early to prepare breakfast or any meal
I enjoy feeling like I'm not attracting anyone's attention when I walk passed

And now the other side of the coin, what being skinny has going for it:

I will spontaneously go out with the bf and his mates without thinking inside that he might get picked on by his friends for me being fat
I wont have to move so far over to squish passed people in a small opening
Less backfat from a bra
I wont have to squish my fat arms in so much at the theatre/cinema/anywhere I have to sit next to someone
I will be able to cross my legs again! And, no, I don't mean the ankle cross, I mean up at the thigh!
I wont have to fuss over how clothes are sitting on me to cover up particular areas
I will have more energy in the morning from good foods that I will want to get up a touch earlier to actually do my hair, more than a quick brush or put in a pony tail
I wont have such heavy footsteps when walking around
I'll be able to go caving without wondering about moving around and getting through spaces and my general size

And the reality of living now:

I find it hard to find clothes
I get grumpy in yoga because I can't move parts of me certain ways due to my [insert body part here] getting in the way
I get pins and needles way too easily and often
I worry I'm judged at work because of my size
I feel messy when I eat around people, like I have a fat face that is just scoffing food
Sex life could be better
I just feel large, generally large

How did I get here?

I used to be the skinny friend, the more attractive one. I had way too many passes from friends' boyfriends that I think being fat has made that situation much easier to deal with
I like feel indulgent with food - though often I don't take advantage of the fact I can be
I want people to judge me on who I am solely, not in combination with how I look... though I would like to get it into my head that this isn't possible
I honestly don't think I look that large ... but I do and I need to get this into my head

I need to get it into my head that:

I look larger than I think I look
People judge me based on my appearance regardless of whether it's attractive or not
I wont magically have a predator after me just because I'm thinner
I can handle any sexual advance I may receive
I wont out-shine my friends because I'm thin
It's ok to out-shine people sometimes, I can't keep keeping myself down
Following a weight loss plan doesn't have to take over my social life
There are only positives to losing weight, no negatives

Pending

2011-03-23T20:29:00.005+11:00

Well I got off to a terrible start, as my previous post will show.

I woke up with a nasty cold on Monday and now that it's Wednesday I'm trying to get my head around re-starting. I still haven't got through all the reading as my mind is full of fog (not to mention other stuff which my three boxes of tissues are helping clear) so I still don't have a proper understanding of what I should be doing. And I still don't know how I'm going to work my existing life into it, even though I know it's only for a "few weeks".

Back to work again tomorrow and I'm not organised at all.

One bonus I can say is that I've taken the opportunity to get all of the caffeine reliance out of my system (it takes 72hrs right?).

Day 1

2011-03-21T13:12:00.005+11:00

Well off to a bit of a rocky start to Day 1 of my 12-Week challenge.

Woke up with tonsils the size of golf balls and it's dark outside in the mornings these days. Grabbed the two protein drinks I'd prepared last night and the meat and salad container and headed off to work.

Left work just passed 11am, feeling like death.

It's currently 1.15pm and I have had that protein drink while at work and the salad while home. I'll have the other pre-prepared drink tomorrow so I don't have to make up any new ones.

Feeling hungry, want to eat the easiest thing laying around. Could do with a good milky coffee too.

Can only blame myself though - I've had two out of the six meals for today and it's passed lunch time, I've also only had one out of the 12 glasses of water I'm supposed to have. Feeling a bit out of sorts.

Had a HUGE weekend this weekend and last weekend so I didn't have the 'few hours' to go over all of the rules and guidelines and also my exercise plan. Honestly though, I am booked in for Yoga tonight, not sure if I want to change it to something more rigorous. I want to get well.

I keep fighting the urge to argue with the food plan and my "I know better" attitude lol. I think I'm doing ok with it so far though. But it's still early.

So that's the update so far.

Feeling under prepared, hungry but don't want to eat, haven't had enough to drink, have a headache, aching joints and a nose that wont stop (obviously not related to food, I've caught a bug from someone).

EDIT: OK I don't get this AT ALL. How if I don't get home from work until 5pm and I have Yoga 6-7pm am I supposed to cook and eat dinner? A. Where is my travelling time, and B. how do I get there and not be absolutely stuffed I can't morph myself into those positions???

I've got the flu.

The absolute best biscuits ever! ... not lc

2010-04-25T20:57:00.002+10:00

I have ALWAYS wondered about this. Now I have a history :)
Not lc though, I even tried to find/make an lc version some years ago but without success.

The Anzac (biscuit) story

By Rebecca Davies
23 April 2010
NineMSN

It's Anzac Day this Sunday, so here's the story of how these tasty treats actually came about.

The past…
Anzac biscuits have always been associated with Australian and New Zealand soldiers in World War I. Legend says that the wives, mothers and girlfriends left at home were concerned that their fighting men were not getting food of any nutritional value, so they cooked up a recipe for treats that they would both enjoy and nutritionally benefit from.

Made from ingredients including rolled oats, coconut, flour and sugar, these biscuits were ideal to send to soldiers abroad because they kept well and would survive the long transit to the frontlines. At first, they were named "soldiers' biscuits", but were renamed Anzac biscuits upon landing in Gallipoli.

The present
Nowadays, Anzac biscuits are manufactured commercially and sold in supermarkets all year round. RSLs all over the country also regularly use them as a fundraising item to raise money for veteran soldiers. They have become worldwide fare and are apparently still issued to Canadian troops at Christmas time.

The recipe
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup plain flour
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup desiccated coconut
125g butter
2 tablespoon golden syrup
1 tablespoon water
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

Sift flour into a bowl and stir in oats, coconut and sugar. Melt butter, golden syrup and water in saucepan, then add bicarb. Stir into flour mixture. Place rounded teaspoons of mixture 5cm apart on greased baking trays and bake at 150°C for about 20 minutes or until biscuits feel almost firm. Remove from trays with spatula and leave to cool on wire racks.

To tell the people around you, or not to tell

2010-03-20T13:37:00.004+11:00

What are everybody's thoughts on telling people about your changing eating habits?

There are pros and cons for both, so how have you found which side you have chosen?

I've drawn up a few that spring to mind straight away... (click for the full image)

My mum is going through a few changes in her life (aka. menopause - what fun!) and with that she's started worrying about her weight for the first time ever (she doesn't have a weight problem) and is trying to be as tactful as possible about suggesting different foods I could eat that would be good.

I hurt my back a few weeks ago and it was terrible. I really feel for people that have chronic back pain. It would take 10mins just to get out of bed (and loads of frustration and swear words) and although not one person mentioned it, not even the osteo or Dr, I know that having a large tummy really contributes to back weakness. I'm using it as motivation to just make a change and be happy about it.

Happy Australia Day everyone!!!

I haven't joined IBO like I said I might, I've decided to wait until summer finishes before I embark on a heavy exercise regime. Until then, I'll just concentrate on getting the food right :)

How is everyone's day going? Hope it's all fabulous!

EDIT: While I'm not especially a fan of the Number 1 in the Hottest 100, I LURVE number two!! Now that I know the actual title I will have to go out and buy it! :)

Hi all!

Well since Sureslim went belly-up about a month ago, I've been following my own plan but thinking about what to join next. The reason I joined Sureslim wasn't because I didn't know which eating plan to follow, it's because I wanted the face-to-face check in.

So, a compromise is that I'm reconsidering joining IdealBodies - remember me talking about it a few posts ago?

It's not quite a face-to-face checkin, but the only others like that that I can find are over $100 a week (sometimes including food) and IdealBodies, though still not cheap, still is cheaper. I've also just found out a long time online friend of mine followed their program for 18 weeks last year and is still following the plan well and easily without them, so that's excellent!

Anyway that's where I'm at right now. I'll decide within the next couple of days whether I'll join up or not. :)

Sooooooooooooo how is everyone else? I've already checked out Harry's and Vadim's blog, so I'm off to check out everyone else's now. Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

I spoke to my trainer yesterday, going to cut my sessions with her back to once a week to go a little easier on my wallet - that wont start for 3 weeks though. Then after that I need to get to the gym without her... I'm thinking in this weather that mornings might be the way to go.

Breakfast (finish 2pm) - Peppermint tea with two poached eggs and green salad.

Dinner (finish 7.30pm) - An apple, 140g roast beef, 145g cauliflower, seed mixture.

Oops my eating was totally thrown out today. The foods were ok, it was more the timing. I'm still working on it - it's probably the hardest part!

Oh exciting news, I went out for lunch with a girlfriend today and she suggested that we should do our own little club (just the two of us) to get motivated to lose some weight. She has about 20kgs to lose, I have about 30kgs. She has lost weight before just like I have. I thought it was a good idea at the time but it wasn't until Sunday that I thought actually it's a good kick up the bum :)

... it'll give me the opportunity to work on my 'mean' persona too, if she doesn't pull her weight on her end LOL. We have a catch up scheduled for next Sunday.

The plan is she will re-start WW and will weigh in on a Tues. I still weigh in with Sureslim on a Tues so Fri/Sat/Sun will be right in the middle and a quick pick-me-up. .... also, I know no excuse will work with her hehehe. This is going to be fun!

Dinner (finish 7.45pm) - 130g garlic prawns, 135g asparagus and broccoli, a pear.

Good day today. Not looking forward to the weekend with the heat wave expected - my routine is always thrown out with the weather. I'm just not a hot weather person. Hmmm maybe I should move to Tasmania? ;)

Well my trainer weighed and measured me for the first time since January. I have gained 10kgs since then BUT in the cms is shows "minimal" (0.5-1cm) change all over except my bust where I have gained 6cm. No wonder I feel like I'm popping out of everything. Hope this isn't a permanent thing!

Wedding fever has hit, probably because I have time to think about it now. Going over expenses, what we are going to purchase, what we're not. What are people's thoughts on making your own invitations?

Planning to go to a different location the weekend of 24-25/10 though so if that works out, you'll have a happy chappy here again :)

Thanks for the opinions on the eyebrow tattooing I'm thinking about. I posted it on another forum as well. They suggested I find out everything I can about this place (because no-one seems to be able to recommend anywhere else) and speak to some of their previous clients.

Well I called yesterday and they were happy to give me a phone number of a person they had treated that had also brought in her sisters because she was so happy!

I'll give her a call today.

At the clinic I have been quizzing, they do what they call 'feathering' which is like the picture I have posted above. See how the lines mimic hairs rather than just a solid block? And if you're not sure why you don't want a solid block......

That's hideous! lol

Nice and full throughout today :)

Does anyone know anyone that has had their eyebrows tattooed? I'm thinking about getting it done bc my eyebrows are so sparse that I have to get them tinted often and even then one of my eyebrows only looks half-length.

What do you think?

Been doing a lot of relaxation a lot the last few days, I think it's really helping. I'm finding I sleep when I go to bed and I wake up before my alarm goes off. I'm still a bit tired during the day, but I can see the improvements so that's great!!

Darn it, I'm not doing so great.

I've lost all motivation. I don't know why specifically, but I think it has something to do with being overwhelmed with stress in my life and the lack of interest I have in the "allowed" foods these days.

Both of those combined means I had two pieces of seed bread with butter and vegemite for brekky this morning.

Wednesday 9 September 2009

2009-09-09T22:38:00.003+10:00

Hi all,

I haven't gone anywhere, I just don't feel like blogging today.

Been a bit upset (well, more yesterday) and stressed so I haven't been able to eat much.

I'm about to go to bed, not hungry at all but the last time I ate was 2pm today (it was the only meal for the day) of tuna in my oil on lettuce and an apple.

Monday 7 September 2009

Breakfast (finished 9.10am) - two hardboiled eggs, 110g zucchini, seed mixture.

Dinner (finished 7.15pm) - 140g tuna**, 145g mushrooms and broccoli**.

Had to have dinner half an hour earlier today because I needed to rush off to meditation - it was either that or skip the meal altogether. Don't want to be doing that tho!

Come on, is there ANYTHING more attractive than this pic? lol

Breakfast/Brunch (finish 2.10pm) - vegetable lasagne, two diet cokes and a stevia-sweetened English Breakfast tea.

Dinner (finish 8.40pm) - 140g smoked salmon, 145g broccoli, seed mixture, an apple, oil/vinegar.

Happy Father's Day everyone! For Father's Day this year, my mum and my step-dad went to a winery about 30-40min away and had a gorgeous lunch. I had a vegetable lasagne (boy was I pleased when I found out it didn't contain any pasta!) which was mainly eggplant, capsicum and cheese. There were prob other veggies in there I couldn't identify, but it was really a veggie stack with some cheese. Yum! I skipped on dessert. Oh, had a sip of a really expensive wine too (just to see what expensive, award-winning wine was like).

So I've spent most of today and last night watching youtube vids with makeup and hair tutorials. I tried out one of the looks, this one:

It actually came out ok! I know NOTHING about makeup, never really wear the stuff. I didn't even know there was such thing as primer and although I tried to follow this, I don't own bronzer, brushes or much else of what she was using. Anyway, I was still pleasantly surprised so if I can make a day-time, work-appropriate version, I might see if I can make this a bit more regular. I've already picked up on my skin moisturisation and lip gloss (ah la a post I made ages ago about grooming).

So, it's just the next step! I'll take a pic next time and post it here for a bit of scrutiny :)

Breakfast (finish 8.30am) - 200g yogurt, a pear, seed mixture.

Lunch (finish 2.25pm) - 130g turkey, 112g mushrooms (they were heavier this morning!).

Dinner (finish 8pm) - 75g edam, 145g broccoli* and an apple.

Sorry I have been brief the last few days, it's been so busy lately! I haven't watched a single television program in days (which I think is a good thing). In previous houses I didn't have a TV at all for a good 2 years and didn't miss it, but then things got a bit more complicated in my life and I guess I needed it a bit for the escapism, now a few days without is something. Can't say I miss it though.

The only things I miss are the episodes of TV shows I like that I know aren't available on DVD so if I don't watch them when they are on I'll completely miss them.

Does anyone here consider themselves a mentor at all? If you do, who do you mentor, in what way and most importantly, why?

Thursday 3 September 2009

2009-09-04T01:15:00.002+10:00

Breakfast (finish 9.10am) - two hardboiled eggs, 110g (guessed) zucchini.

Lunch (finish 2.50pm) - 140g smoked salmon, cucumber, lettuce, few slices of red onion, seed mixture, an apple.

Dinner (finish 8.45pm) - piece of barramundi 'A La mum' and some salad.

I gulped down lunch today so fast! Was very hungry and that didn't go away when I started to eat (like it usually does). Yay! I love having my proper appetite back, not just be annoyed lol.

Thanks for your feedback, Harry. I think this question might take a bit more thinking then - you raise some good points hehe

Does anyone know how to adjust the blog template here? I want to make it wider so it's not such a tight column. How???

2009-09-03T07:19:00.000+10:00

Breakfast (finish 10.30am) - Seed mixture, 200g yogurt with 100g strawberries and stevia.

Lunch (finish 4.10pm) - 130g smoked chicken in salad with spinach and celery, an apple.

Feeling good today. Actually still as happy as Larry after my weigh in yesterday! I think what I really need to keep an eye on though, is making sure I get in every meal. I don't want my body to think I am under-eating and respond negatively. I spent a long time getting my metabolism back in good working order than I'd like to keep it there.

That's one of the reasons I had the reward meal yesterday (two pieces of vegemite on toast, two pieces of fudge - that's the last of it though - and two biscuits). But it didn't make me feel good. I am trying to un-condition myself with foods like these. If they make me feel yuk (especially the fudge) I need to remember and learn from it. But I'm not.

So, being theoretical, do you think if I have X-amount of good experience with something and Y-amount of bad experiences with it, that X and Y need to be fairly similar in order to learn from it?

Another example, if you have encountered a snake once and it was nice, then once again and it bit you, you might never touch another snake. If you encounter snakes 1000s of times and they're nice, then once and they bite you, you probably would take your chances again.

Do you think food is the same? I need to feel yuk 1000s of times before I'll learn?

September? What the?! What happened to the rest of 2009????

Woohoo! Down 1.3kgs this week!!!!!!!

Monday 31st August 2009

2009-08-31T21:33:00.001+10:00

Breakfast (finish 11.15pm) - Seed mixture, 100g strawberries, 200g yogurt with stevia.

Lunch (finish 7.35pm) - half a tomato and an apple .. I was in the biggest rush and it's all I could eat while driving frantically. What a day!

So I went to the gym this morning before work because I knew I was having a late one at work tonight. Got lots of energy - I was running all over the place at the gym this morning with my trainer. Now it's after breakfast but before lunch and I'm really hungry. Not fun. I knew increasing my exercise would cause me to be hungry.

Will see my consultant tomorrow for my weigh in and to see how last week's 'reward meal' has affected me. I'm feeling really good, much thinner (though that might just be psychological) so I'm hoping it worked in my favour.

I've noticed I don't have the get-up-and-go I used to have. I didn't have it before I started Sureslim either - do you think it could be age? I'm still trying to grapple with all the new things I'm discovering with age lol. It's just like I don't want to do anything - I don't want to cook, I don't want to make my bed, I don't want to do anything that ordinarily I just do without worrying about if I want to or not. Having said that, since Sureslim I've cut down on my caffeine in a major way - where I used to have four or more lattes throughout the day, now I'm only have part of one, if at all. I miss out having any kind of caffeine on most days.

Breakfast (finished 12pm) - 144g barrumundi, 131g cabbage.

Really hungry today, was counting down the minutes from about 2pm onwards.

Saturday 29 August 2009

2009-08-29T12:31:00.005+10:00

Breakfast (finish 1.05pm) - seed mixture, an apple, 113g smoked salmon and 133g boiled zucchini. Also after I went to the gym this morning but before I started brekky, my dad was soooo proud of these Anzac biscuits he made last night and wanted me to try it. He's still upset about the hamburger he made me the other week that he discovered in my trash so I had a bite in front of him. I didn't finish it, but I had a bite and I think it was worth it to see his face.

Dinner (finish 9.50pm) - two fillets of chicken from KFC (I tried to scrape as much crusting off as I could)

Skipping my cousin's bday this afternoon (again) because all my family do's seem to centre around food and I think it's silly. Why can't I go and not eat and not be put in the spotlight for it?

Another gripe (must be the day for it!): I get annoyed at the lack of breakfast options on this plan. It's like I either have yogurt or eggs (which eggs are limited to three times a week) and that's it. I mean the other options are rolled oats (only if I'm desperate) and cheese (which I'm trying to reduce). It doesn't have a measurement for today's breakfast, for instance. No protein option. I'm happy to have the apple in the morning to have the higher carbs earlier in the day but still, not even the option??

Friday 28 August 2009

2009-08-29T11:31:00.002+10:00

Breakfast (finish 8.50am) - seed mixture, 200g yogurt (guessed), 100g strawberries.

Dinner (finish 6.05pm) - 140g tuna in my oil with spinach and half a tomato, an apple, a pear.

Well sorry for the delay in writing this log, I was out all night at an Alice Cooper concert. It was awesome!!

I can't say I'm much of an Alice Cooper fan and I really didn't know any of his songs except for Poison, but it was so much fun - there was all sorts of other stuff going on on stage besides the music. It was like a whole show. They had ghosts as part of his nightmare, Alice and one of the ghosts then spent the rest of the show torturing and killing each other lol. It sounds disturbing but it was so theatrical that it was fun and over-the-top.

The audience was made up of people from around 8 years of age to easily in their sixties. Some dressed up, lots just looked like people you'd see on the street and wouldn't think twice about. Awesome!!

Has anyone seen him before? What was it like?

Thursday 27 August 2009

Sorry guys, got visitors over again tonight, then going to see Alice Cooper tomorrow and the wrestling on Saturday. I hope to breath again on Sunday lol.

2009-08-25T21:51:00.002+10:00

Breakfast (finish 10.42pm) - 200g yogurt, 100g strawberries and seed mixture.

Dinner (finish 6.50pm) - reward meal.

Well two big things happened today - I weighed in at 1.6kgs down (yay!!) and I had a reward meal. I spoke to my consultant about it, we went over all the pros and cons and frequency, etc. It was a really good chat. We'll see how it affects my weight, though she did say she's more concerned about my health than my weight when talking about junk food, which stands to reason.

I left in two minds - half my brain focused on the short term (which means tolerating cravings until I reach goal and dealing with them then) and the other half on long term (which means satisfying them as I go so I don't have months worth of pent up frustration once I reach goal). The second half won.

So.... what did I have? Well believe it or not, the very first thing I had was a ham and mustard sandwich on seed bread. Yum! That's really what I wanted, lots of ham in it (proper ham, not the loaf style). I had a piece of mint fudge, two biscuits and felt ill. Ewwww I'm not looking forward to doing that again.

Which is a good thing. I am no longer curious :)

Thanks everyone for your support, it means everything.

Have a good night!

Breakfast (finish 8.40am) - two hardboiled eggs, 110g zucchini, an apple.

Lunch (finish 2.35pm) - seed mixture, 130g turkey with spinach and celery, a pear.

Dinner (finish 9pm) - 75 edam, 145g red capsicum, oil/vinegar, supplements.

I will give a separate calcium supplement out and see if it helps me with my cravings. They are super super strong today.

She will say 'no' but I'm going to try my best to convince my consultant tomorrow that a reward meal once a week is something I truly want to try out. I'll give it three weeks and if it's worse for my weight instead of better, I'll let it go.

Oh an embarrassing thing happened tonight, my dad asked me why a week or so ago I said the hamburger he made for me was nice, but then I didn't eat it. I can only guess he saw it in my rubbish (last night was garbage collection night). I fumbled an answer and somehow got out of giving him an excuse. What do I say? I could say hamburgers full of breadcrumbs (and I am off red meat still) in a gourmet bacon and cheese roll doesn't fit in with my current diet (I can't say 'eating') but that would open a gigantic can of worms with my mum. Urgh!

UPDATE: It's started... I'm getting questions about dinner.... what is it, how much did I have, why don't I also have ----, when did I have it, why did I have that. And being polite doesn't work, trust me. Instead I have to revert to being an adolescent and answer every question with "I dunno". lol

Sunday 23 August 2009

Breakfast (finish 9.50am) - 200g yogurt, 60g strawberries (all I had left), seed mixture.

Lunch (finish 4.15pm) - 75g edam, an apple.

Not all that hungry today. Spent the whole day at the Home Show which was so draining. I find if it's just window shopping it's easy but when it becomes something real and you're mind is thinking of actually application of products when you pass one of the zillion stalls, it really gets tough on the poor old brain.

Having a nap now before heading off to the movies with a friend.

Saturday 22 August 2009

2009-08-22T12:17:00.005+10:00

Breakfast (finish 1.25pm) - seed mixture, 65g edam, 110g combination of cauliflower and zucchini, an apple.

Dinner (finish 9pm) - 140g smoked salmon with 145g zucchini and some lettuce, a pear, oil/vinegar.

I think my scales have broken. After putting most of my 200g pack of smoked salmon onto the scales they read 55g so I really have no idea if the above measurements are accurate now. I'll have to get another set tomorrow.

Well after my last post last night I had my multi vitamin and headed out to a good night with friends, instead of staying at home and grumbling. I didn't feel any more cravings for the whole night, didn't think about food one bit and woke up this morning feeling great! Thanks for letting my whinge a while, it helps hehe.

Before I got out of bed I went over a few things in my mind. Like what got me to this size in the first place. The big factor is instant gratification. I got to this size because I wanted something 'now' and followed that. If I do the same as I've always done, I'll get what I've always got.

Got up and went to the gym this morning, did a good workout with my trainer.

Breakfast (finish 8.45am) - two hardboiled eggs, 110g zucchini.

Lunch (finish 2.15pm) - 130g turkey with spinach and celery, 100g strawberries AND and apple.

Dinner (finish 7.40pm) - cheesy veggie lasagne (75g edam, 140g total of half a tomato and red capsicum with a wheat wrap), seed mixture, oil/vinegar.

Starving all day today! Starving right now and it's not even 5.30pm!

TOM is coming up and it might have something to do with what I'm experiencing. I hope so.

Thanks for the reminder about the supplements, I haven't been having any and I think it will really help. My serious concern though, is that supplements only make cravings more tolerable, they don't satisfy them. I'm worried I'll end up doing what I have done after following other plans which is following them to the letter, putting everything out of my mind that could saboutage it, and then when I'm "finished" or otherwise reach a particular point, I have to satisfy it all at once. And it lasts weeks or months.

I don't want to do that again.

I know she'll say I can't, but I really think Protein Power's Reward Meal once a week would help me.

TMI Alert! Don't read any further if you're delicate.

Something that's been bothering me recently, over the last few weeks or a month or so, I've had like zero sex drive. It's just completely gone. What should I do to bring it back? And what happened to it in the first place?

Do you think it might be the lack of exercise? It's gone down to about once or twice a week only. I'm still on the pill, that hasn't changed. Maybe I've been on it for too long? Or maybe it's my calories, do you think they're too low and my body thinks it's in 'starvation mode'??

It's something that's really bothering me. My bf is starting to wonder if it's something about him. :(

Another thing I want to note is that my cravings aren't going away. I can satisfy them a little bit but really they are just continuing. I can't sweeten my teas until I have them with a meal which means I don't sweeten them - if I did my meal wouldn't finish until later which means I would have to have the next meal later and it goes on. It throws the whole day of food out just because I want to sweeten my tea.

Actually I must make a confession...

My bf and I are considering pushing our wedding to 18-24months away (instead of 12 as planned) so we can have a better chance at getting the house off the ground. Rather than trying to do both at the same time and messing both up. Well, yesterday I thought about that and my first thought was that I could just throw Sureslim out the window and tuck into a huge, iced, jam-filled doughnut for another few months and start this again later. That's terrible!! How am I ever going to maintain successfully for life if I have that type of thought?!
