The Road to Fabulousness - Chika's diary.

Hey, congrats on all your achievements!!!

Learning not to cram everything in my mouth was a good lesson for me to learn.

Grats on the bathing suit!! Even if I weighed 125lbs I don't think I'd ever wear a two piece... Too shy lol.

anyways, keep up the good work, hope to hear from you soon!!
 
Hello Fat to Fabulous

Hoping you're well. Keep your chin up!! :)
 
Hello! Wow what a lovely welcome, its an amazing coincidence that I decided to come back and I've got all these lovely messages waiting for me!

I've been bad! I've been away in London and been out everynight, drank nothing but wine and full fat coke and eaten everything in sight. Not good! I weighed myself on Sunday and I'm at 24st exactly now. I'm cross, I want to bang my head against a brick wall. I seem to be eternally trapped in a diet cycle where I lose 1 or two stones and then forget the diet and put it all back on again. I remember thinking should I really be eating this and then a little voice comes into my head saying "sod it" You will be back on your diet in a couple of weeks so eat whatever you want.

Thankfully I'm well away from London and its temptations now! I'm in Wales staying in a great house with a pool so I intend to kick start my exercise regieme with a good swim each day.

Casey honey, how are you? Running Girl its great to hear from you, are you doing well?

Cherry hows things - I'm just gonna go find all your diarys in a wee while and have a catch up. Its good to be back.
 
Hey Fat to Fabulous, no worries, no pressure...:)

I had a wee bit of a downer, but I am sort of hangin in there, thanks for askin. :)

Are you living in Wales now or staying with friends? Or? I remember having a teacher whom was from Wales.
 
Dear Diary,

I neglect you too much and I'm sorry! I'm not back at home and life is back to normal - Just university and work to deal with and I can go back to cooking my own meals again.

I had a wonderful summer but being away from home gave me free license to eat what I wanted so when I got back two weeks ago I weighed 24st 4lbs (340lbs). Arrggghhhh! I kind of do better when I have an eating plan to stick to so I spent a couple of days researching the best one for me and decided to do the Fat Smash.

I started Tuesday 8th September at 336lbs and today 16th September I'm at 324lbs so I'M DOWN 12 LBS IN 8 DAYS!!! You canprobably tell I'm quite pleased with this :) I'm loving the amount of fruit and veggies I can eat. I'm not a big meat eater anyway and when I was vegan I maintained my lowest weight. My skin looks good and I have lots of energy. That mid afternoon sleepyness has gone completely! Also this may be TMI but I had a really bad stomach all through August - I was bloated, gassy and was generally unwell but I feel back to normal again now!

How is everyone?
 
So I work in a train station part time and one of the perks is the free meal we can choose on out breaks. In my pre diet days I would automatically go toBurger King and get a massive Burger, chips, onion rings and a full fat coke and then have chocolate cake for dessert. Probably about 4000 cals in one sitting! Arrrggghhhh. Yesterday I thought I'd say no to my free meal and went prepared with rice and chilli and a food flask. My work mates were a bit incredulous that I was giving up the freebies but the empowerment that comes from saying no and making good food choices is incredible! Preparation is truly the key!
 
hey girl,
nice to see you back, its been a while! and glad to see your doing good already making healthy choices and congrats on the weight loss so far! your doing great!

i've been okay, i also stepped away from the forum for quite a while but now popping in abit more often. the last 3 months i just totally lost it since i was on a plateau and my weight just wouldn't budge. but the last 2 weeks or so things have started moving along really slowly but surely. i have to say it's so tough when the weight loss starts to slow down but i'm hanging in there.

k, take care girl. xoxo
 
Hey girl!!! I had to stop by and check in on ya! :) I see you are doing good!! I know how it feels to say no to free good food lol.. UGH!! But, when we can do it and look back at it, it feels so great! Shows how much motivation we have! :) I'm proud of you!!! Keep it up and we can do this girl!!!!!
 
Hey ma! Just checking in on ya! :) Hope to see some great updates soon!!!!

Hello gorgeous girl! How are ya? Thanks for stopping by, I really do appreciate it!

Can I get a WooHoo!??? Today I stopped all the excuses, the I'm too busy, tired, poor etc and dragged my fat ass to the gym. I've been reading quite inspiring posts from people on here who go to the gym and I thought just go and get sweaty so I did.

I did 20 Mins on the bike and 20 mins on the elliptical trainer and now my legs feel like they want to drop off but its kind of a good pain! I ten did some crunches and planks, boy do those planks hurt. New mini challenge alert! My housemate can do a plank for 2 mins - I need to beat him! I have a terrible competitive streak that I'm going to utilise to my advantage!

Another great thing happened last night... My "part time" gentleman friend ;) came round and looked at me and was like - oh wow have you lost weight! I was like yeah baby! Lets just leave the lights on tonight! Its great when people start to notice. I can def tell in my clothes at the moment. Happy days all round!
 
Dear much neglected uber abandoned diary.

I'm making this entry eleven, yes ELEVEN months after the previous one. It's been a hectic year and I haven't had time to take care of me meaning the thing that I wanted to take control of my weight has been neglected.

Last week I weighed in at my highest ever weight - i'm mortified. I feel terrible, not just mentally but physically. Carrying around extra weight is hard work!

So what am I going to do - no fad diets. Looking at my behaviour patterns and dieting habits I'll find a website detailing the new greatest thing, go off and start the diet only to gain all the weight I lost and more a couple of weeks later when I get bored.

I'm posting here because I miss the support - If you read this please do say a few words - it means the world to me.

Wish me luck! xx
 
Good to see you back! Just take it one day at a time. It's not going to be easy but it will be worth all the work! Map out a plan and your goals and stick to it! Consistency is key. Looking forward to reading more! You can do it!
