My Weight Loss World

Today is Sunday, and I’m perfectly fine and on track. I haven’t slipped up once this weekend. They’re usually the hardest for me to manage and this weekend I never even had the slightest urge to eat something crap. And that includes my boyfriend buying KFC for lunch yesterday. Zero temptation at all on my part. I had my Biggest Loser chicken and vegetable soup and I was perfectly content.

I love that I’m getting back on track and in control of my eating again.

Yep, I’ve been gone for a while. Yep, I’ve been eating whatever the hell I want without exercising. Yep, I’m now feeling the consequences…so I’m back :)

Good old, faithful Tumblr is always there to help me get back on track and into shape.

I hope you are all doing an amazing job and haven’t fallen into any lazy pre-Christmas traps like myself!

I’ve been doing really great for the past 2 weeks when it comes to my eating.

I’m slowly getting back into the swing of things. I’m still yet to sign back up to the gym though. Pay day is tomorrow so I should spend my money on a membership (aka: something useful) instead of spending it on crap.

But yeah, I’m stoked with how well I have been. I create my menu in Calorie King and stick to it. Weekends need work but for the most part, I’ve been awesome.

Yay for progress.

First, I heard back form the coach and recruitment officer of the dragon boating team I wrote to. The season has finished but they will be starting their winter training and conditioning to prepare for next season in a few weeks and I’ve been invited to attend :)

Second, my best bud’s birthday is next week and we are going out Saturday night (23rd). I wanted to trim down a bit before her b’day and am only just now realising that it’s next week….whoops. So time to kick it up a notch and get back on track with my food so my tummy will be nice and slim for said b’day celebrations. Not fussed on losing weight on the scales, just slimming down and looking fit.

So starting tomorrow it’s back to counting calories and weighing my food.

My eating has been….ok. I have another kids party this weekend so yeah, lets just see how that turns out huh.

So yeah, how have you all been traveling with your eating this week? All on point and doing great I hope.

I managed to wake up this morning and not have a coughing fit as soon as my eyes opened. I haven’t been able to do that for about 7 days. So things are hopefully looking up in the health department. My breathing is still a bit weird though. The best way I can describe what it feels like every time I take a breath is that it feels like breathing in really cold air…you know…just that uncomfortable feeling. Yeah, well, hopefully that goes away soon too so I can start running on the treadmill again!

I did manage to get to the gym this morning which is awesome. It’s been a whole week since I was last there. I just took it easy because I didn’t want to screw up my recovery in any way. I just did some free weights, squats with weights and machine weights.

Eating was good today too. Overall a good day.

Yay, Summer is just around the corner for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere. For once I’ll be able to be comfortable and actually wear summer dresses and singlet tops and feel confident. Admittedly, I’m not 100% there yet…but I’m not far off. 

So with Summer on my mind it’s time for me to get back on track with my eating and start getting beach ready!! This past week of eating whatever the hell I’ve wanted has been awesome lol. I feel like I’ve rewarded myself for pushing myself to look hot in my bridesmaid dress and now I’m finally ready to start reeling my diet back in and focusing on living a healthy lifestyle once again.

Eating junk food is all well and good every now and then but to be honest, I’m over it. I feel sluggish and heavy. Not how you want to be feeling in the lead up to Summer that’s for sure, especially when you want to have a body like Gisele Bündchen for Summer!

So I’ve kinda let myself drift off track since my friends wedding last weekend. I’ve allowed myself to do this just to kind of give my mind and body a break. I’ve been, for the most part, eating healthy but just haven’t said no to an ice cream or a chocolate that’s been thrown my way.

But after seeing the progress of some of the amazing people here on tumblr, you guys have made me want to start to get back on track again. Tomorrow is out though lol. I have my nephew’s 5th birthday party and what better way to have what I call my “last supper” (aka: my last binge meal before I get back on track) than to eat kids party food for the day.

I’ll back back on track from Sunday. I think I’m going to go back to weighing in daily again because it was so effective for me in the lead up to the wedding. It kept me in control and focused. I also am going to start taking my measurements since I’ve never actually done that before.

Anyhoo, I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to want to get back on track again and to strive to have a body that looks as amazing as Jennifer Nicole Lee’s bod…
