So i finally ate i just couldnt manage anymore........hate myself for that//////piece of ham with some white low fat cheese 2 slices tomatoe and a small piece of bread......and still i want to eat.

I am thinking that MAYBE it has to do with me , not smoking.Cause i am smoking an electronic ciggarette for 2 -3 weeks now the liquid i was using had nicotine in , but 3 days now i have stopped nicotine completely and i am smoking the liquid that has only strawberry falnour , zero nicotine......Maybe its the reasson my appetite is real huge,that and the holiday eating!

I've been waiting all day to be able to post on here! YAY!!!!! You did it!!!! Oh sweetie, i am so so proud of you and so so so so excited for you too!!!!

WELL DONE!!!!!

Yes, it is hard but it does get easier. I so know what you mean about waiting for the 'lady who must be obeyed' to tell you that you can walk!!! I am so pleased that you can't wait to do the next one tomorrow:) That is awesome!!!

Don't worry about the 2 min one (isn't it one and a half min run, 2 min walk) You will improve and it will be easier than todays!!!

Your food looks lovely and well done on not having anything sweet!!! I know it is hard, i have been hungry some of the time too. I think our stomachs have definalty grown with all the christmas food, that will change soon :)
 
Jess, please don't stress about being hungry & then eating something healthy. That's what we're meant to do. Your body will be sending out crazy signals, but it is such a good thing giving up smoking. You'll get through this stage & will live a healthier & fitter life. I have minimised cheese as I think that may have been holding my weight-loss back. Feta also is very high in salt & therefore helps your body to retain fluid, which most young women have trouble with anyway. Are you having some yoghurt & fruit for breakfast still occasionally? Starting off your day with a mini meal, with protein, I think sets you up a little better for the day & reduces hunger. Well done you on even attempting to run on that cold & wet day. I'm sure I wouldn't have even tried. Lots of love to you Jess, xoxo Cate
 
Day 2 , Week 1 DONE!!!:hurray::hurray::hurray:


Goodmorning to all!

Well i did my run this morning, it was a lovely clear sky day!

I must say that i did find tday Harder than yesterday.What makes it hard is getting out of breath.Not pain in my legs or anything just getting out of breath makes me tired.So i was really difficult for me.I nearlly stoped,sooo close but i didnt.I was thinking two things

"Kate im going to kill you!!!"

"i cant stop what am i going to tell my friends on the forum?Keep going!"

Good thing is that i didnt get a pain in my sides (a little bit started while i was doing my cool down but stopped soon) and i didnt get the nausia feeling.

Came home did 30 minutes on Bike , and i managed 40 crunches cause i was really hurting in my tummy while doing them.Had a hot shower and some breakfast

low fat yoghurt and 2 mini toasts.

We are going out with our friends in the afternoon so i am saving all my calories for that.I only had breakfast to keep me goimg till this afternoon.


cate it is great that i have stopped smoking!i still cant belive i have done it.it has been 1 month.i do have moments i really want one but i can manage that!!!
 
AWHOOO HOOO..great job JASPER!! Proud of you!! I love that you talked to yourself to get through it!! It looks so pretty there!! what a great place. :grouphug:
 
A:hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: DAY 2 DONE!!!!!! :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray:

So so proud of you sweetie, so proud. I am living it all over again with you...ALL OF IT!
If you get to a point where you feel you really do want to stop, just slow down a bit. I totally understand what you mean about struggling with breathing hun i was exactly the same, my legs didn't ache, i hardly ever got a pain in my side or anything like that, i just couldn't breath. Slow down and you will be amazed at how much easier it is to breath then and Trust me you will be able to breath as you do more. I found it easier as the weeks went along. I can run with Jane for 30 mins straight and we chat all the way. You will get there, you are doing so so well

I laughed so much when i read "Kate, i'm gonna kill you" :smilielol5: So funny :)

I am gonna reply to our facebook conversation on here while i think about it (cos i'll probably forget to go on there)
You will keep this up I will not let you give in! Everything you are saying is just how i was and felt about it at the beginning. When you do a 3 min then 5 min run etc the feeling you get about each acheivement will keep you going on do longer. It truly is addictive sweetie. I never stuck to anything either. The first thing i have really stuck to is this, this forum, my weight loss and running!!
You said you don't feel like working out indoors anymore. I was the same, all i wanted to do was run. Even when i go to the gym and i'm not suppose to run i find myself doing it. I do weights but thats because i really want to tone and only after i have had a run lol. i just love it soooo much more than the bike or crosstrainer etc, they just don't cut it anymore.

Love and kisses back at ya sweetie Xxx

Late snack 4 mini toasts (126) , 2 slices of ham (90 ) 30 gr.cheese (80)



Exercise 30 minute walk/run ,40 crunches , 30 minutes bike



I really was planning to be good today and i think i was ok even though we eat in a tavern,i just shouldnt of had my late snack of 300 cals/.///////but once again i was hungry.the only thing i have working is that i got some exercise in today.Tommoorow will be better?i dont know.We are going to our friends home tommorow and we are making fresh fish.I know that fish isnt fattening but us eating there means i am not going to eat at home , and that means i am going to be hungry AGAIN all day....


Kate thanks so much,i am really taking your words serious , of me getting better at it cause really is not easy at all!!!I am glad to see that You also dont reallly like to be indoors anymore.I was worring that maybe im looking for excuses NOT to work out.I even found myself making bargains with ME today while on the bike it went like this "Just do 15 minutes" , "no you are already onthe bloody bike so do the whole 30" . " Let me do 20 and get on tonight" . "you are not going to get on tonight , so just finish the damn exersice."Now is that NORMAL TO YOU GUYS>>>????im speaking to myself in my head...............anyway


We went a mountain that had a tiny bit of snow on so the kids could play a bit.We only stayed for maybe 10 minutes , but Mario didnt want to leave , i sat at the back with him and tried to calm him down but he was soooo hysterical he was hitting me with all his strenght...........I didnt do anything that moment only try to cover my face , cause it was he wasnt my kid,he just went crazy.After his tantrum i told him he is not having any candy / chocolate neither any cartoons till monday.... can imagine what we went through tonight.....omg...the crying and then he was kissing me trying to make me give in but i didnt.He is a little shit sometimes and he made me cry after he treated me that way (i had my sunglasses on so he didnt see me).


I am thinking that i am making soooo many mistakes with him.I need to get some things straight.I must disipline him.I mean 1)he is allowed to watch cartoons ALL day ,anytime he want to until late at night...2) he is allowed as much candy he want whenever he wants it (cause i cant stand his whinning ) the list goes on and on and i have come to the conclusion that my nearly 3 year old son is making the desicions AND i let him do many things just to avoid the drama.I must stop all this , cause after today i understood that i have let him go too far............................Well enough with all that!I am really tired and im off to sleep will come on tommorow to read all you guys!


Tete it is a pretty place , special when its summer time!but its not my FAVOURITE place , i have my special spot that means so much to me.I think i am going there tommorow and i will take a pic.Its nothing stunning its just a very important place for me.in my heart.!
 
Look at you, you lovely thing! Jess, bringing up kids is such a hard job, but with HUGE rewards. Kids do need discipline & boundaries or they will become total brats. Be strong sweetie & do it gradually. Just start introducing a few boundaries & stick to your guns. You can do it & Mario & the 2 of you will all benefit from it. I talk to myself ALL the time & tell myself off etc. I think we all do. Much love sweetie xoxo Cate
 
Breakfast 2 Coffees (140) , 4 mini toasts with 4 thin slices cheese and 2 slices of ham (300)

Late Lunch 1 and half fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (grouper fish....) and a little rice with corn.

Dinner 1 diet coke , 1 mini toast with 1 teaspoon jam (83) , 2 carrots (50 ) biscuits (300)

Hi everyone!!!!Thank you cate !!! you are always so sweet!I reallu\y made an effirt today to stick to Marios punishment for hitting me (no cartoons or candy).It was easier than i thought.I just hate that he never listnens to me.I hope i manage to make this change.I really dont want him to be miserable either,!


Today?aaaa what a difficult day....i just want ot freaking eat .

We went to our friens and i smart Jess thought that i could have loads of fish cause its not fattening...Well i had 1 and a half fish .The one was grilled and the other was made in the oven,with no oil just veggies.\ for the aroma/So i just googled the cals and a fillet of 200 grams is 213 cals.Dont know what that fish weighed though./......

So we came home at 10 ish at night and i had 2 carrots i am just hungry...AAAA just remembered i had 300 cals of plain , not tasty at all buiscuits..............Must add that.........

So i didint have a good day...What must i do?i feel like goingand frying a couple of eggs and eating it with half a fresh loaf of bread i have....and loads of feta cheese with it........................................AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Toa\day i am having so many f^%$# it feelings....I think the most i ever have had before.I even thought " i am not really so ugly anymore so i'll stay this weight and just finish with it"


HELP PEOPLE!!!!I am so angry with myself for wanting to eat...:cuss:

Why is this happening?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I really want a CHUNKY KIT KAT.......or a Mars bar o\and a couple of TWIX/...:drool5:

I loked at my 100kgs photos to get the motivation back but i felt nothing.The chocs are more powerfull this moment.Really i am willing now at 1 am to drive to an open store and get rubbish.I wont do it but i am really close.:willy_nilly:

I am not waiting for my periods , so its not an excuse.I CANT really be HUNGRY cause i have eaten.i am not bored,or angry , or sad.


Oh well im going to have to drink many many many glasses of water to make it through nad get up 100 times while sleeping for the loo.....


I didnt get to do my run today crap and it was a great day, NOW ITS RAINING SO PROBABLY IN THE MORNING IT WILL TOO.But i WILL go tommorow.it is the last day of week 1....ouououououuuuuuuuuuuuu then its week 2!!!!!SCARY!!!!!


So im off to imagine more about fatty tasty food and just feel miserable for having a weight problem and must take care of what i eat....My best friend is my height and in the 50's.She bloody eats so many chocolates and fatty food.I know she isnt healthy cause she doesnt eat ANY veggies only tomatoes ,No lentiles , beans , ect but thats not my point.My point is she is so thin maybe more that is proper and eats crapy stuff...How is that possible PLUS she hasnt worked ut ever.Well once she joined curves and lost 2 kilos in a 1 and half weeks............................................

Well thats that.:cuss:
 
AHeya Hotstuff

Sorry that you are finding things hard at the moment. I get days like that too and i think ranting about it on here is great!!! I know what you mean about not understanding why you want to eat it, i don't get it either. It just happens. Try and keep the damage to a minimum (if there is damage, which there isn't yet) and tomorrow is another day!! You will wake up and hopefully feel pleased with yourself that you won that argument with yourself.

Do not settle for what you are now, you know you wont be happy. You have a target sweetie and you will get thru this shitty phase and bloody well reach it!!!! And you will be a 'mean, lean, running machine!!!' too.

Sending you lots of love and support my lovely!!

Oh, :iagree: with Cate. Very wise words!! Be strong with Mario. He will thank you for it in the long term :)
 
Hey!I knowyou are right Kate , i wont be happy to stay the same as now...its really difficult for me these days though.Its moments through the day that i say "dont k\care anymore" but if i manage to take control that 1 minute im ok.....Im having a ok day , not wanting bad stuff!I have noticed that my cravings all come at night time...so im kind of dreading it...............Scared of the darkness that shall fall in a few hours!!!!!The Candy will attack!


So i just had lunch.Im going to wait a bit for my food to go down and im off to do my run!Its really cold.Im going to run and then go get a girlfriend ogf mine and her son and bring them home,

ouououou im going to my fav place as well!!!!am a little worried though cause i will be runing at night,not daylight.But it is right on the highway....i think im scared of myself really , rather than anything else...sounds strange , maybe you wont understand but every time i have gone for the run i get the same scared feeling...once was for the cold , the rain , now its cause of night...but it really doesnt have to do with any of that.......

Will be back later....
 
Week 1 , DAY 3 DONE!!!!!:hurray:

I did it and it was great!it was the best one yet.I think it was that i went to my lovely favourite place today.It was cold , not many people, the sea was next to me and i just loved it@@@@@@


It was actually easy today.I think the fact that i did it in a slower pace made the difference.I didnt get out of breath so bad , actually it was ok.I managed it.really well!!!!
 
A:hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray:

YAY!!!!! Well done you!!! And well done on getting your pace right so you didn't struggle. I think that the C25K is perfect, the way it gets you use to a certain amount of running, then ups it a little until you get use to that etc until WOW you can run for 30 mins straight!

I am so so so proud of you sweetie and i hope you are massivly proud of yourself!!!

Oooooh and that place looks like the perfect place to run. So so pretty :)
I always wanted to find excuses to not do it too because it was so far out of my comfort zone. Push past your fears sweetie, you have done week 1 YOU CAN DO THIS, THERE IS NO STOPPING YOU!!!

I totally get what you mean about craving food in the evenings, i am just the same at the moment!! I am so so desperate for chocolate or sweets. Today i keep telling myself 'you ran forever and burnt like 1000 cals, you can have something' but then i say 'but you are suppose to be having a perfect day' I have had this argument all afternoon!!!! Just keep stopping yourself and you will get thru this or have some fruit or something really low cal.

Again, well done sweetie, so so proud of you and i am sooooooo chuffed that i have got you doing this, it's the least i could do after you have changed my life. :grouphug:

Love and hugs Xxx
 
Hy Jess,


Congrats on day 3!!! :hurray: Thakns for the lovely words you posted on my diary. They were perfectly timed. And your favorite place is just lovely. It seems very peacefull. It must have been really nice running there.
 
Breakfast 2 coffees (140)

Lunch beef roast with potatoes and carrots , half a tomatoe and onions ((800) ??????dont know


Snack 3 cereal bars (258)

Dinner Half a grilled pitta 100 cals , some raisins (40) two mini toasts (65)


















total 1403 ( i think)




As you can see the roast had 3 pieces of meat beef.I dont know how much that is i am guessing 200 cals per piece?and then another 200 cals the potatoes and tomatoe.?I hope ive put MORE calories than i actually had or at least be right on!1400 is ok for today.


Mady thanks for coming by!it is a really lovely place!!!!i'll check on your diary right away!


Kate thanks so much for saying you are proud!!!!I dint feel Proud yet , i really dont trust myself that i will do this till the end...i mentioned about me not sticking to things.It made a huge difference today , the place AND the pace so im defo doing my runs there even if i have to driveanother 10 minutes away.

I had a girlfriend over with her son tonight and they ordered with my husband souvlaki!!!!!!I wanted two of them but instead when the food came i went and washed the dishes , so i dont see the yummy food!

I did eat half a grilled pita that mario didnt eat.I need to go shoping for veggies tommorow.

I did notice that my hunger was a bit better today.maybe cause of the meat????i didnt really like it though.Anyway!


I was thinking should i do week 1 over again ?before going to week 2?or should i just do it as i am supposed to?im really scared of running for 90 seconds!

Maybe i'll just give it a try tommorow and if i see its to difficult i'll repeat week 1 again/What do you guys think?
 
77 kg~~~!!!!Holiday weight has gone!!!!!BYE BYE evil 79's~~~~~!!!!!



Ok!!so it seems to be good NOT to weigh to often,Last week i got the ugly 79 oint something on the scales,so im back to where i keft off.

YOu probably will think its my idea but i swear those 2 kg i put on Made a big difference on my body SPECIALY on my tummy,I knew i had lost from last night!I could se it!

So need to be strong , try to count calories :banghead: and get to 75 to reach one of my mini goals.

WIll be back later on.!!!
 
AHeya sweetie :)

:hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: Yay!!! You lost your holiday weight too!! :hurray: :hurray:

We are both back on track now :)

You should be proud of yourself hun. YOU have made that decission to start running and YOU have done week one, even though it was hard!!! Give yourself some credit my lovely!!!!
I think you should give week 2 a go hun, If you take it at a slower pace you will surprise yourself! I found the 3rd one of each week easier every week and you have done the same you can do this!! Don't worry about the speed of your running, that will come with time. I still aint very fast but i get there and i am fit. You will reach that place too. You will not fail or give up because i won't let you sweetie! You have changed my life, i want to do this for you and you are completely capable of doing it!!!

I'm going into hospital tomorrow for my op so i'm not sure when i will be here. Hopefully i'll be ok by wed/thurs but don't think i'm ingoring you if i'm not. I will be thinking of you and willing you along that beach and i will be doing a 'high five' with you when you finish your first week 2 run!

Sending you lots of love Xxx
