Here I start my diet diary.
I have been thinking of starting one since ages, just didn't want to write about my diet on my lj because I feel if I fail all my friend would read about it and I wouldn't get good support from people who feel exactly what I feel.

Soooooo, here I am :D With all the best hopes ever.
Life is going to change, and I'm going to change for the better!

My current status:
Heigh: 165 cms
Weight: 65 Kgs
Other details coming soon.

Today I ate:
Breakfast - Coffee plus Milk and a bread.
Lunch - Salad and sausages
Dinner - Salmon and potatos.

As Activities:
Today I just went to work walking. It was abotu 20 minutes in total. I know too less... But wanna improve that.

Already tomorrow I would wanna go jogging. I am planning it for a week and I don't wanna be lazy. I'll make it!!! I know I will feel great after that!
The thing I need to keep focused is how pretty I will be once I loose this wait and how better I will feel. I'm smart, I'm pretty (even if it's hard to admit it) and it's a shame that I feel always wrong in every situation just because of some extra kilos. No no, this is going to change!
Oh, about how much I would wanna to lose.
To be honest I don't wanna become too skinny. I wanna be normal, have a nice little soft belly which looks cute.
I was thinking of loosing 10 kilos. Maybe some more...it depends how I will look then. We'll see :)
So my goal is for now 55. Keep finger crossed.

I'm just back from my "daily" activities.
I used "" because it's the first day so far :)
I went to the park jogging.
I spent there 1 hour and half...I didn't spend all this time just jogging, it was more 5 minutes jogging and 5 fast walking. It was over one year I didn't do any activities, so I didn't want to overdo. But it's a start!
I already feel better after all this sweatting. When I came back I even washed the car, so I carried water up and down stairs (I live on the second floor) whitout felling that bad. I am sotisfated of myself :)

I have eaten today:
breakfast: Milk and coffee and one toasted bread.

:hurray:
Even with the mood I feel much better...like I'm finally doind something 100% for myself. Until now I was "the good student" and so far I have started working also "a good tutor" and I'm kinda tired of being "only" that...I wanna also be nice looking *_* expecially to myself.
I was looking to the post "post your dream look!" and...gosh, it ispirated me so much. I think I'm going to post some body I would like to have and try to reach. Like a "picture goal".
Oh by the way...soon I'll also post some "before" pictures.
I'm so entusiastic!!!
Now it's time to shower and then BOOOOOKS! :D
 
I'm not sure I can post so much!
Anyway for lunch I ate 50grs of smoked salmon plus an apple.
For dinner I'll just have Philadelphia light (80grs) and salad.

Oh, by the way..I was surfing on the net looking for some ispiration and there I found her, Rachel Blison. She is so cute and lovely. Plus I think I look a bit like her...I mean for hair and colors. I would wanna look like her. I like her style and she just is so cute and sweet.

I wanna that same stomach!
 
I'm so upset!
Today the weight was not what I was expecting. 2 days ago it was 65.5kg and now it's 66.2. Gosh. I cannot really explain this...the only reason could be that yesterday I used muscles I didn't use for so long time and they already have increased. Is it really possible after only 1h and half jogging?!
Anyway, my legs and abs are in sore, sigh sigh.

However, let's upload:
current weight : 66.2 kgs (145,9 lbs)

Meals so far:
breakfast : coffe + milk + 2 toasted bread.

Oh, and by the way, here it's the picture I promised. I took it yesterday and...try to survive. As you can see I'm bigger on the upper part which I hate. My arms are too big also. Do you know any good exercises to help that part getting smaller faster?
I was thinking that maybe I should give myself some mounth goal...like loosing 2 kilos (4.4 lbs) per month. But it would be really nice if I can do better.
 
Hey,
I am also 165 cm, my weight right now is 61 (ish) kg, but I started at 73 a year and a half ago. My dream weight is also between 55 and 53 kg (rather, I think my goal weight is 53, but I will be happy to reach 55 and then reevaluate).
You can't spotreduce, that means, you can't chose where you lose weight from, but when you lose generally you will lose everywhere even where you hate it the most! So I'd say, just stick to eating the right food and exercising and the weight will come down. a 700 g difference is nothing, you may have been bloated that day or something! So don't get too sad.

Read the stickies about what you should eat (you are lacking fruit and veg I think), what kind of exercise you should do. Then think about what would work for you. A lot of the stickied stuff does not work for me for several reasons, but knowledge is power! So don't NOT read it just becaus you think it has nothing to do with you.
And have a great time! Camy
 
Thanks Camy for your comment.
You are right. 700 grams are not that bad. I will follow your advices and keep going.
My father always said “all begins are hard...but with time, discipline and constance things will get easier and you'll see results” so I won't give up. :)
Plus you are right, I need to start more vegetables and fruits. I'll start with it today.
I envy you :) You already are at 61. Getting to 60 would be a great result to me. I have last been 60kgs 2 years ago, I lived alone without a car...so it was “easier” to controll myself with food and I had to walk everywhere I needed to go. I usually get very much bored with cooking myself everyday, so I ended up eating at the university canteen for lunch (they had really healty food) and had just a fruit salad, yougurt or something small in the evening. Sigh sigh. Maybe I should try to do the same again.
Back in Christmas I was 69, it was because I was really really stressed with university (and of course because of Christmas food which is not the healtier and lighter). Plus didn't have time for any exercise at all. I started in february of march an healtier lifestyle, I didn't really fallowed a diet, I just tried to quit candies, chocolate and go work walking. It worked fine and I lost 3 kgs. But now I need to do more if I wanna reach my goal.
And yes, I'll read all I can about exercises and healty food, knowladge is the secret, plus determination. And this forum is helping me to keep focused on my goal. Thanks :)

Today so far:
snack in morning: 1 apple.
Lunch: pasta with cheese, meat with lemon, 1 apple. Coffee with sugar (I cannot really drink it black).

For dinner I think I'll have a fruit salad.
 
afternoon sneak: fruit salad.
dinner: tomato and fruit salad.

Also sotisfated with the drinking. I have been drinking a lot and I know it's good not only for the weight but for everything.
Just a total random thing...I feel so worried and stressed for the graduation. Hope it will go fine.
 
Gosh, I'm so worried for the thesis and the last exame. I really hope these days go fast and soon arrives July when all this will be over.

Anyway, back to the weight! :) Today I got a good news, I'm again 65.5 Kgr.
Keep going honey*, I know you can do it!

*Yep, I call myself honey or love when I wanna cheer me up, hihi.

Today Food
Breakfast: Milk and Coffee + two toasted bread.
Snack: One Apple
Lunch: Bread + Tomatos + Tunna + Strawberry Yougurt.
Dinner: Fruit salad (with peach, apple and orange) + fried chicken. It had ham and some cheese, I really didn't want it, but my mum wanted me to try... I even didn't enjoy it! XD Anyway, I won't die if I eat something friend once.

Today Exercise
40 push ups
40 abdominals
I know it's really little, but it's just for now since I have other things to focus on at the moment.
Anyway, something small like this is better than nothing at all. :)

I've got a question.
How do you avoid to get stretch marks? My sister loosed many many kilos few years ago and just didn't use any kind of cream, so basically all her body is covered with them.
What kind of cream do you use? Any suggestions?

Oh, someone told me that once you get them you cannot rid off of them anymore, is that true?

At the moment I'm using DibiBody Tonic - intensive skin-firming cream. It reads:Ideal both for professional massage and for daily treatment, this cream has an intense toning and firming action. Including hops, vitamins A and E. silk proteins and sweet almond oil, brings exceptional elasticity and firmness to skin. I put it every other day.
Is it good?

Hi little_star :)

Congratulations on your new diet lifestyle! I wouldn't worry about the weight gain; I would think after heavy exercise like jogging your body builds up fluids and all sorts of things to help rebuild the muscle and extra muscle, so that's probably why your weight went up. It takes a few days. Also, with the stretch marks, I have heard they fade over time and I guess it depends on the person's body and skin type how fast they fade. I think at your weight you shouldn't have too many problems as you're pretty slim already. :)

I use vitamin E cream ... don't know if it will help with stretch marks... guess I'll find out when I lose weight hhehe!

Do you mind my asking where you're from?
 
Hi Shinsplint, thanks for your comment :)
Yes, I know that those little weight gains are ok.

About the strecth marks, I have heard if they come they will stay forever and there is no way to "delate" them. I already have some little ones, expecially on the back and on the arms...before i start loosing too much weight I would wanna know how to avoid getting them. Maybe i'll take a picture to show how is the situation. And I'll surely reasearch something on the net when i have time.

Anyway, of course u can ask where I am from...I'm from italy, and I apologize for the baaaaad english I write.
And you?!

Let's say that mainly the problem is not only the weight loss, it's about taking care of ourselves.
In past I never liked to go buying clothes because I felt nothing fitted nicely on me, so I just gave up the idea. I weared what I happened to have. It was rare I had clothes bought from shops.
Anyway, things changed some time ago, but I never bought dresses. Today I did <3 I simply love it. Everything started because my boyfriend kinda 2 years ago started asking me to wear a white 'summery' dress but I was actually too shy to go and buy. :blush5: I can be silly on these things.
In a shop I found exactly what I was looking for. Ok, It doesn't look on me the same as in the picture...but whatever :p I look good anyway. I just wanna make it a bit shorted. The size is 12 (USA).Guess it's not that bad.
I'm so happy! :D Cannot wait to surprise my boyfriend when he'll visit on July (we are long distance). I'll write what he'll say *_*

Weight Today
66.4 (+0.3kgrs) T__T I think the pizza yesterday was a bit mistake.

Today Food
Breakfast: Milk (50 kal)
Lunch: Salad + fuit salad + tunna + bread (600 Kcal)
Dinner: Chicken breasts + ham + little bit of cheese ( 600 Kcal)
TOT: 1250

I just feel a bir frustrated...I got 1 Kg in 4 days. Can it even be possible?...I mean...I never ate more than 1500 kcals per day (and actually usually it was below that). I guess I have to cut it more, I wont go over 1200 Kcals and we'll see what happen...
I planned to be 64 kgs (even 64.9 would have be fine...) but it's clearly not going to happen.
Plus I'm very frustrated with the university...
Yeah...this days really suck.
