**Diary of a Pretty Fat Girl**

So here we go!

I decided on Saturday that I have had enough of being the fat girl! I went to Royal Ascot last weekend and when I saw the pics of myself - I was disgusted! It was also the first time in my life that strangers were sniggering at my lumpy fat legs! So I though - enough is enough! I found this wbsite and joined. I am in the UK and we have a supermarket here who does a diet plan for you and does your shopping list and everything - since I shop there, I thought it might be the way to go.

Went and bought my weeks worth of food yesterday - it took me forever as I some of products I had never bought before and had no idea where they were in the shop! Im really impressed with the diet plan, its food that I enjoy eating and the quantities are more than sufficient!

For breakfast today I had: Coffee, Cereal, Banana and toast with low fat jam.

For lunch I will have: Vegtable soup, beans on toast and a pear

For dinner I will have: Boiled new potatoes, minced beef, carrots, peas and a little gravy.

My snack is lighlty salted popcorn and a glass of milk.

I am doing an hour of gym tonight and of course I am drinking loads of water!

I am also quiting smoking today! I know a lot of posters are going to say that maybe I am taking too much on at once...but I have wanted to stop for a while now and if I am going to take this whole life style change seriously - I have to make BIG changes. I have never had the perfect thin body, I've always been a little over and now I have just balooned!

I plan to keep a detailed diary about my progress. I have put some stats below:

Starting Weight: 85 kilos (187 lbs)
Goal Weight: 59 kilos (130 lbs)
Height: 1.63 Meters (5.34 feet)


I believe the success of any diet - is planning ahead

till next time....XOXO

So Day 1 went so so....

I got a 40 minute work out in. I really pushed myself and it was quiet funny to start with because I forgot to pack my sports bra in...so it wasn’t very comfortable exercising...but after a while it just got plan irritating! Then I don’t know if it was the heat or just because I hadn’t exercised in a while - but I really couldn’t breathe. I had to go and sit down in the bathroom and just wait until I got my breath back - do you think it has anything to do with not smoking???

Otherwise dinner was fine and this morning for breakfast I had a bowl of cereal, piece of toast with cheese and an apple. I am finding it really difficult to eat SO much in the morning but I did feel a lot more energised this morning!

Lunch was soup again with pita bread and nuts and raisins.

Tonight I have a body pump class - its like aerobics but I have never been before - Hope I survive!

I forgot to mention yesterday that I am 24 and South African who lives in London.

:jump: have a good day dieters - and hang in there
 
Hi Tinks,
I would imagine your getting out of breath while exercise was from a combination of being out of shape and being a smoker. This should get better the more you work out...especially if you stay away from the cigarettes!

I admire your determination to seriously change your life...BEST OF LUCK to you!!!
 
Awesome job on the exercise! You may have been going a bit too hard if you're just getting into it or back into it, probably was good that you rested up a bit til you caught your breath. Your food sounds pretty good. Take care :).
 
Well done getting in a 40 min workout :) Pump is a great class but take it easy for your first one and keep your weights light for your first class.

Cheers
