Just a quick diet update......

I have now managed to update my starting weight on My Fitness Pal so my little button over there >>>>>>> is now up to date and yes that's right I have now lost over a stone! Yey! 

I'm really happy especially as I have had a couple of days this last week where I've just pigged out and exercise has taken a back seat but it just shows you don't have to stick to something religiously to still lose weight.


And another quick note I may be a little MIA for a few weeks, I am suffering from bloggers block but hopefully I'll be back with lots of posts soon! I have also got a few posts scheduled for the next few weeks so keep an eye out for those!

Oh and I have changed my blog header to something a little more summery, I hope you like it!

Don't forget you can keep up to date with what I'm getting up to by following me on Twitter, link to my account is also over there >>>>>>

Project Diet Update - 2

I haven't done a diet update all month so this post is well overdue. As you can tell by the little weight loss tracker over there somewhere >>>>>> I have stuck to my diet and am losing weight every week.


My diet has changed since I started. I am no longer doing the 5:2 diet, I fell off the wagon with it and haven't got back on but I would definitely start doing it again, I might do it for a couple of weeks before my week off at the end of June.

I also am weighing myself every Saturday morning now instead of every couple of weeks. This motivates me to keep going. This last week I have had a bad week on the diet front but still lost a pound, I now have only 1 pound to go before I've lost a stone (the tracker says I've lost more but I forgot to reset it to my current weight when I seriously started to lose weight).

I have found that I have changed the way I think about food. Before if I fancied something e.g. a packet of crisps, I would eat them for the sake of it even if I wasn't hungry but now I think much more about it and the majority of the time leave them.


At work I have reduced my tea intake, I normally have only 2 cups and top up on my water intake with water with a little no added sugar juice in. I have two 750ml bottles on my desk and normally I drink both during the day.

Currently my daily treat is a can of Diet Coke, 1 calorie, but I want to eventually stop drinking fizzy pop so often, after all it's not good for your teeth.

This week I haven't exercised at all, it hasn't crossed my mind but I am going to get back on it. I also started doing squats and lunges but after two days my legs were killing and I couldn't continue but I am also going to start doing those again, maybe just squats this time, they seemed the lesser of the two evils.


So far I have gone down a jeans size which means I've had to buy new clothes. Instead of buying brand new stuff I've been trawling eBay for some bargains and bagged myself a few new pairs of jeans for under £5 each! I didn't want to spend a lot of money on clothes as I want to continue losing weight even when I've reached my 1 stone target.

Well that's my diet update, hopefully my next one won't be so long but if you have any diet tips like low calories snacks or recipes then feel free to leave them in a comment below!
