You can do it Pinky. You haven't failed yourself, you just had a small setback. By the weight that you have lost already, you are well on you way. Good for you.
 
hmmm i need to change my tracker... ive practically put all that back on again. *cries* Ill start another tracker for this diet... then i know exactly what im doing. lol
 
sounds like a good idea to start a new ticker. glad to see you back. this time is it!! lifestyle change! do you count your calories or know how much you need for a weekly loss? i found a site - that is very helpful with eating plans, exercising and information. maybe it will help! just a thought...
 
ohh thanks Skyler... ill have a look into it. :)

Im rareing to go... I woke up this morning and looked outside and saw it was sunny! Realisation hit me that its going to be summer soon.. there are gonna be pool parties and such and i DONT want to be the fatty again this time. *shudder* plus i want to look good for my graduation photos.

Right... ive come up with the conclusion that i have to eat a proper, filling meal before work.. because otherwise i just snack. I get bored and then i get hungry! It doesn't matter how many pints of water i shove down my throat i still feel hungry.
 
i take it that you work at mcdonalds? or close to one?

maybe you should plan your meals the day/night before or on sunday or something go to the grocery store and buy planning on what you will eat for breakfast, snacks, lunch, another snack & dinner. if you have a weeks worth of food in your house, you a)wont feel like eating out bc you spent your money on the food in your fridge b)will have more choices THAT YOU MADE :) at the grocery and c) not think about food all day b/c you will just have your plan set and you dont have to think about it.

just an idea that i know has worked for some, especially if they work around food.
 
Pinky, you could try having a good protein rich meal before going to work, protein makes a person feel full for longer than carbohydrates or fats.
 
I work in a club behind the bar and there is a macdonalds on route when i walk to work... normally i tend to go straight past it but last night i was still hunrgy and walked in there.... plus my best friend was with me and she wanted something too. I think we are a bad influence on each other. lol

Good idea about the protein tho... might try it out. I only had a small salad before i left because i lost track of time and was in a hurry. must make sure i plan a proper meal for tonight before i go then.

Food:
1 large bowl of salad leaves
1 stick of celery
2/4 tin of sweetcorn
1/2 tin of tuna
drissle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil
bowl of low fat natural greek yoghurt with a teaspoon of sugar and a teaspoon of cinomen (sp?)
*sigh* a bowl of smarties ice cream
3 peices of swiss roll (the sooner i get through these things the better. lol)
1 caramel snack-a-jack

drinks:
1 large milky tea

exercise:
none so far

You can do this...stop putting yourself down and start praising the good stuff you do, the more you praise the good stuff the more it will happen. This will help change behaviour patterns, because at the moment it seems a lot of your eating is out of habit or boredom.

You can do this if you really want to! we are here to support you!:D
 
Hey there, first time I've looked in on your diary but I can identify with some of the stuff you're having trouble with.

I used to love things like chips and crisps etc but I found a good trick is to find healthier alternatives you like just as much. That way you can afford to go a bit mad but not loose too much sleep over it. ;) In probably my most guttsy moment during the last two weeks I sat and munched grapes for nearly an hour.:rolleyes: :eek:
 
I agree with crunchie. Try to eliminate the chips/crisps at least. My current weight loss began simply with eliminating snacking between meals. Most of the snacks I ate were cookies, crackers, and sugary soft drinks. It makes a world of difference if you cut those out.

Being a yank, I don't know what snack-a-jacks or wagon wheels are. Please educate me.

Wow! They don't have wagon wheels or snack-a-jacks in america? I am surprised. :D

Well wagon wheels are a cookie with marshmellow and jam covered in chocolate. I don't have any left thank god... so it will make not snacking on 'bad' stuff much easier.

Snack-a-jacks are a much healthier option... they are basically flavoured rice cakes... do u have rice cakes in america? they are probably called something else.

I'm trying to not cut out everything that i want because i find if i start saying no to everything that i want then i just give up... so trying to have them in small doses... like the chocolate spread. *shrug* hopefully its going to work. lol

Breakfast:
1 bannana
2 peices of grannary white bread with a very thin layer of chocolate spread. :eek:

Lunch:
medium sized bowl of pasta with tomato sauce and a thin layer of cheese

Supper:
none

Snacks:
4 marshmellows
4 digestives with thin slices of chedder (damn damn damn!)
twix at work (i got hungry. :()

Drinks:
3.4lt of water
1 dr Pepper
2 cups of milky coffee, 1 with 1 sugar

Exercise:
Half hour walk to work
half hour walk back from work

The wagon wheels sound evil! Banish them from your house.

The snack-a-jacks sound OK though. They are in the states too but I think they are just called rice cakes. I rather like them, especially the salted ones.
 
hehe wagoon wheels are evil! They are so tasty but im not allowing myself to buy them any longer.

Snack-a-jacks are great! You can get sweet flavoured ones which i have at the moment.. they are more calories then the plain ones but its much better then eating a bar of chocolate or something. :)
