stick to my diet

is it just me or is the first 3 days of a diet always seem the hardest?
for YEARS now ive caught myself waking up, eating my regular frosted flakes and sugary juices, and then go “wooooops, guess i’ll start tomorrow…” whenever i decide to start a diet.

Tomorrow will be the actual actual first day of something long lasting.. i hope.

Today I started a new way of looking at this whole deal. I am eating every 1.5 hours as long as I am awake. 100 calories, give or take, each meal. It is keeping me from being hungry. so far so good.

its past xmas…time to get back on track, going to be hard with lots of sleepovers and birthdays coming up :( I dont crave the junk food i just eat it because it’s there in fact i usually feel sick when i eat! I started at 12 and a half stone in 2005 and reached 9stone 7lb at the end of last year but put on a few pounds at christmas.

I going to make a real effort now; drink only water and have lots of fruit for snacks and of course exercise :D never lacking there! Im also going to start doing exercises to tone my body so with in around a year, at the most(!) I should hopefully be a size 8! My target weight is 9 stone 8 and a half if im pushing it.

good luck to everyone else you’ve ust got to keep that will power up!

I am doing Medifast and have lost about 40 lbs. I want to lose 20 more and have had some waning motivation recently. It is time to get back on track and reach my goal.

Yesterday was bad, I exercised as usual had a great healthy breakfast and then I went to school and lost my mind… had lots of vending snacks to tide me over the six or so hours I was there and I didn’t pack any fruit in my bag… so the lesson learned is: preparation is key.

Today:
Had cereal w almond milk, blueberries and agave.

Dinner:
Zucchetti w/ mushrooms, avocado, and tomato medley (love this!)

Maybe smoothie later (bunny spice) and I have some raw treats I’ll eat on… I have yet to exercise, I don’t feel like so I’ll probably do 20-30 mins rebounding later and 15 mins on my bike. Oh and I lost 2 lbs so far :)

Ciao!

Okay… that smoothie s**t did not work… But I am sticking to a modified plan, but I needed to incorporate actual food I could chew.

So for example, this is what I had today:
32 oz juice (this is my fave, it gets me going but doesnt really fill me up for long)
Anyway, I juice cucumbers, carrots, strawberries, 2 apples, sometimes a lemon or green or red pepper added… this shoots me up with energy.

Then I had ezeikal cereal with walnuts and blueberries, almond mylk and raw agave – good hearty bowl.

Next I’m gonna have guacamole, mushrooms, spinach, melted vegan cheeze and raw chili on ezeikal pitas – these are delicious. Probably have 3 or 4 of these.

For dessert I might have a bunny spice smoothie (if im still hungry, or maybe just a yogurt parfait (soy yogurt with flax seed, nuts, cut strawberries)

Over and out!

P.S. think I’m gonna add oatmeal to this to fill me up more during the day, cause later in the day I’m fine, but in the morning since I’m on the go, I’m sometimes very hungry til lunch. Oatmeal seems quick to make.

I drink a lot of smoothies… because I like them and because I’m pressed for time (job, school, life in general) so I make them and head out the door and it keeps me pretty full so that I don’t binge on something unhealthy… but even though I start my days out good I still have been binging the last two months (high stress with school almost done – semester and 1/2 left and stressing major) Anywa, because of this I have gained 25 pounds in the last 2 months, so I want to lose that and more in two months. So after thinking I’ve decided to do my version of the slim fast diet.

The Plan (Simple):
Breakfast Smoothie (Green or Fruit – what I usually have anyway)
Lunch Smoothie – Fruit or Juice from my juicer
Sensible Dinner – Salad or something hi-veggies and light, preferably as raw as possible
Dessert Smoothie – (I have these a lot too when I’m refraining from sweets and I love ‘em) Raw Chocolate Smoothie, or Raspberry Cheesecake Smoothie (actually made from papaya and Raspberry and other stuff it’s yummy) and I have a bunch of delish smoothie recipes

Exercise: 60 mins daily.

Okay, so that’s the plan… pray for me :)
Will be checking back and posting daily (or almost) for the next 60 days.

Think I’ll end this around thanksgiving so Nov 27.

I want to stick to my diet…

i have been doing pretty well sticking to a healthier diet. I went and bought groceries that the IC website recommended. Not all the stuff taste fantastic – but it is worth it when I wake up the next day with less pain and not feeling like a fat ass! Just have to continue with it! 2 Lbs lighter already!!

Well I decided to go vegitarian considering that thats what fits me best. My digestive systems can’t tolerate the heavy stuff like red meat and pork so I figured to go Vegitarian. Its not so bad considering the fact that I love greens….wish me luck :p besides I hate animal cruelty and it wouldn’t be right if I ate them too
