Nuts: Which ones are heathly for you?

I love honey roasted peanuts. WHO DOESN'T LOVE FATTY THINGS COVERED IN SUGAR? Yeah, I know. But, in my reforming of eating habits I have become aware of the notion that not all things which are high in fat, are actually bad. So, this leads me to an early Sunday morning google search (because I …

Day 4 and Day 5 (the weekend blues)

Day 4: Wow I struggled yesterday. I was fine...well I ate about 24 points..which is one over my alloted for the day. But then I went over to a friends house and had a little bit of dinner...but what I realised is that it ended up being about 9 points..so yeah 33 points. AHHHHHHHHHH! I …

Day 3: Lost some!

Good news: I lost more weight. I am now 171.8lbs (77.9kg). Bad news: I ate 40.5 points today. Just ate stuff all day long. It's honestly only about 2025 calories according to my calculations..maybe even less. You see right now I am currently eating around 1100 calories per day. So, yes it's a huge day …

Sex and weight loss…you know what’s been on my mind

WOMEN have sex drives...don't tell anyone. Most women also feel as though there's a constant need to lose weight, watch what they're eating, and not give into the negative self-talk that riddles our minds. When Reader’s Digest asked women when they feel sexiest, they said it was when they weighed less than they do now. …

Day 2 of 21: All I wanted was toast and cookies

Hey there, Today I started at 175.3lbs..down :). The lowest I've ever been was 174..I almost cried. But I hopeful that with tomorrow's WI I'll be ok...or maybe within a pound or so. Anyways, was one point over my allotted 23..ended on 24 points today. I had otw small popsicles today to try and soothe …

Day 1 of 21

Today was a pretty crap day from the health standpoint. I stayed home today with a pounding headache (have one now the 3 ibprofeun are wearing off) and just feeling weak.) In my bordem, I actually did work today...stupid...and then decided it would be good to bake cookies. NOW THAT IS A TRIGGER FOR ME. …

So I had a think….

I was thinking about what I had written before: no sugar, not processes things...and perhaps that isn't exactly something that I can do all the time. BUT One thing that I know I can say to myself and know that I can hold myself accountable to is I have decided to stick true to the …

Habits: how to create good ones

I have 21 days, from today, until my birthday..when I turn 25. My goals for that day have changed, because my habits are not healthy. 1. I have never made it through a week on WW without binging on Friday and Saturday and then coming back together partially on Sunday, doing well on Monday, binging …

Health, exercise, life: In the moment

This has been an intense week for me. I have left work, for a business trip, at a not so great time as I have a pretty big event that I have coming up in two weeks. I am trying to organise and mobilise students without making them feel like I am doing all of …

Dieting: Like playing with a Yo Yo

Yes, I know it's been WAY to long since I've last written. Don't you worry I have been thinking about writing. I was going to be writing about 'Afternoon munchies' but wasn't inspired. Honestly I haven't been inspired in a long time..even with work. I have successfully fallen off of the diet regime and have …
