natalie's first time diary :)

yesterday was a terrible day :(

I had a sausage at breakfast, but didn't take any bread or anything to try and minimise the damage :p

Then went out for dinner with my bf, and i had a large plate of pasta. Then he encouraged me to have a wafflet hing with ice cream- i shared it with him though and tried not too eat much. Plus i never finished my pasta, i gave it to him. I drank 3 glasses of wine and a vodka as well.

I was depressed today when i realised my weight hadn't dropped but i've actually lost 3 pounds this week anyway :)

Not feeling too bad now and i was good this morning, had a smallish bowl of porridge.

Never got a chance to excercise yesterday either, other than the walking in town. I feel like it gave my muscles a chance to rest though, so i'll excercise today and it should be fien.
 
oh yeah, my boyfriend said he could notice a difference in my face after this week. But he's moaning that i've not to lose as much as 26 pounds, but i'll be happy when i get to that weight :)

I know for a fact that i'll be told im too thin, but i also know that i'm built like my sister who's even thinner than that and looks brilliant so i think it's fine.
 
i've chosen my outfit for when i lose the weight :p a bikini and shorts and zipper, all adidas but not at all neddy(chavish).
 
Sometimes it takes quite awhile to notice the weight loss - I started out much heavier then you, however, I lost 25 pounds before anyone even noticed! It was VERY disheartening!

Keep going, and know that in no time, you WILL be able to see a difference :)
 
I went shopping today for holiday clothes- made me feel really good :) i've got a pretty short skirt in it, and with my sunbed tan :p my legs look quite toned, not slim enough, but they still look nicer than they used to- Chunky but toned :p

I haven't lost any weight since wednesday and my measuremetns arent any less, i think i've only noticed it in my legs because they were already sort of toned because i walk in work, and it didn't take much to notice. My cheekbones are starting to show a tiny bit, but i just feel like nothings happening and that i'm never going to make it for holiday.

I've decided if i do i'm changing my hair. I've had my hair long and straign and sort of light blonde for almost six years- if i lose weight for holiday i'm getting it kind of short and messy and platinum blonde :p my hair grows fast so i can grow it if i don't like it and it'll be much better for my holiday, because mine takes too much work.
 
When i used to walk in a short skirt my legs always wobbled a wee bit, now they don't :D i feel better knowing that.

Dropped another pound, i'm on target for losing enough weight :) :) )

my face feels slimmer. Still hate my stomach though.

Yesterday was terrible :( I was doing so good, all day, i ate really well and didn't overeat. I had worked out my calories perfectly, then my boyfriend tempted me with pepperoni pizza :s i think he did it to be evil since he knows i'm on a diet :p

My weight hasn't changed but i was panicking so much. I was glad i'd only stuck to two slices, my appetite seems to have gone down so much since i've been dieting, i get really full now.

Hopefully i've not messed it up. My calories were perfect yesterday until the pizza.
 
I went to the sunbeds again today :) (terrible i know but it makes me feel so good, i'll stop once i look ok :)

Just need to find the motivation now to excercise.
 
I feel really sick and i can' tget the motivation to excercise but i feel like i really need 2. I read in someons diary or something that i should do 10 minutes and see how i feel. I'll try.

I felt thin in work 2nite and my face definately looks thinner :)
 
I did my video and i'm glad. Although i was starving afterwards and i had a packet of crisps. They're only a hundred adn 15 calories though.

I know i'm eating to much fat, even though my calories are low, i need 2 work on that.
 
So feeling ok today :) i think i lost another pound today although my digital scales are broken and it's harder to judge on the other ones, but i always use both every day and i'm pretty sure it's gone down a pound :)

Another pound and i'll b on target for the week :)

I bought a new excercise video today, the dirty dancing one and then read reviews that said it was terrible, but nevermind lol at least it's excercise. I've ordered the vicky entwistle one which is supposed to be fantastic so can't wait for that to come.

I'm starting to get stressed about my exams, i can't wait till they're done even though i'll probably fail (bit of a messed up year) and i'm scared that i'll get no degree, or only a basic degree. I think i would reapply to uni for something like zooology if they would take me :p

I felt thin yesterday in work, and thought my face looked thinner, but everyone kept asking me if i was ok lol, i did feel sick though so maybe i was pail.

I've just gone on to the contraceptive pill a week ago and i'm paranoid it'll make me fat. Plus i'm already a hypochondriac :p and keep thinking i'm taking haemorraghes and things because i've been getting headaches :p
 
maybe you could boost your calories but decrease fat by having a breakfast thats not so sugarry ( i think i read you have honey nut flakes) .. something like oatmeal/porridge. its really filling and i never need to eat until at least 1.30 ish when i ve had it for breakfast. if you find it too savoury then add a tea spoon of honey or jam. its more calories but then prevents any snackiness so is better in the long run.
well done for those exercise videos! keep it up hun :) x
 
:) i don't normally eat honey nut bran flakes, it was just all we had, normally i have bran flakes, or porridge, or if i really can't face them then a slice of toast.
 
I've had a terrible day eating. I had toast for breakfast, which wasn't too bad, although i need to eat less bread. But i was starving at dinner time, and didn't have a lot of time to get ready for work, so i had a microwave chicken curry and chips, and later i had toast and tuna. :(

I did my video, and planning on either doing that again, or my normal video.

Oh yeah, i had some sugarry ribena, and 3 butter biscuits in work :(

This is my calorie report from fitday for the last fortnight. I need to cut down my caloreis a bit, and my fat a lot, and eat more protien. I tend to undereat protein because i'm so used to being a vegetarian, six years is a long time.
 
Today has been terrible, my mum bought me a chocolate fountain for my easter, and i didn't eat a lot, but i had a few chunks, too much. :( And last nite i ended up eating crisps as well as the stir fry.
 
I know i've had a bad day, but i did a little bit of excercising, and now i'm getting dresssed up for a party which makes me feel good :) even though i've not lost masses of weight, my shoulders and face look slimmer so i'm going to wear a boob tube with a little jacket thing, to show off my shoulders :)
 
Another bad day :( too many, need to start afresh tomorrow :)

But tonight i'm going out which will mean a lot of dancing, even though i will be drinking- vodka and diet coke.

I'm hopeing now that's easter done all the chocolate will be gone :p
