Heeeeeeeeey there! Im baaaaack:)


I haven't been on this in sooo soo long. I am going to be more relalistic this time around tho.... I used to always set myself up for fail by being so unrealistic to my goals in the past. ie.. setting myself a target of 1200 cals a day to eat, only to break out most days and eat up to 3000 ( 1200 is nearly impossibole everyday of a diet)

Now my aim is if I have those days that I am extra hungry ( due to stress levels or a lot of exercise, I will eat up to 1800 cals) today I ate 1840 cals but burnt off approx. 750 cals in the gym today and 150 cals at home

I am cutting out jellies, fizzy drinks and don don donnnnn TAKEAWAYS ( maybe on celebrations, but not like the 4 times a week I was having them as of late)

This is my third diary, and I want the third time to be the most successful time!! I have previously lost 3 stone, only to pile back on 2.5 stone of it!!


my current weight is 226 pounds
my goal weight is 147 pounds
That means I have to lose approx 79 pounds, yikes.
I am eating roughly 1300-1500 cals a day and exercising on average about 3/4 times a week. I have always suffered with my weight. Ever since I was about 9 years old it has been an issue, I am the only one of my friends that is obese. I have let my weight get in the way of approx everything ( including relationships---more like lack of)


Cant wait to catch up on the other profiles!!:) I will try to post on this at least a couple of times a week!

Love
 
just eat normally

You should eat at LEAST 2000 calorie or eat to your hunger, any kind of calorie cutting is going to come right back to get youonce your diet is over, just adopt a lifestyle that you can follow your whole life and not for a few month
 
Welcome back Princess! Eating normally? Hmmm. If we were good at that then we wouldn't get over-weight in the first place. Have you tried My Fitness Pal? I really like it for helping set calorie goals etc & many on here use it. Mine is set for 1450 cals per day & that is doable. I try not to eat all my exercise calories back, but never go below 1200 cals per day. I think that is too low to stick to. I try to eat fruit as my sweets, as eating any candy, jelly, pop etc just makes you want MORE, whereas fruit satisfies the sweet cravings, without unleashing your carb-craving demons. Glad you're back Princess. It's all go from now. You can do this! xo Cate
 
Well well well:) Today I ate soooo well, ( ate not that great the last couple of days tho BOLD ME)
I am super pissed at myself, I have the worst sleeping pattern in the world. Today I got up at 3.30 in the broad daylight, and after having 2 bad days eating I felt like a little shitzball!!

Anyway i just realised after commenting on Jens diary, that i haven't been in the Onederland since i was about 13 ( how pathetic i know) i lost weight in 2012 and in Novemeber of that year i got down to 204pounds,only to pile nearly it allll back on in 2013 and continuring 2014. Super annoying. I totally believe that maintain weight lost is 1000 x times harder than losing weight.

GOAL: I am going to try to lose 12 pounds in October! MY CW: is 226 so when i get on the sales on the morning of OCT 31st i want it to read 214. Defo want to be in the ONederlands by January!!! So sick of being sooooooooooooo fat.

My sisters have said they already see a huge difference in my face, looks so much thinner. I wont be weighing in till Sunday so that's when i will prob next post.

Talk to ye then:)




Awh thaaaaaanks Cate. I know I do set myself up for fail. So im defo gonna eat more calories from now on, not that 1200 cals malark at all.

Thanks for the support Vee!!
 
Ive been eating real good since my last post. thank god.

Its 7.30 am here, ive a lot of work to do ahead of me today.

For breakfast I had : 2 brown bread toasted with Jam, cup of tea and 10 pistachio nuts. ( apparently there are 4 cals in each of these bad boys, I could easily eat 200 of them as they are super yummy! lol)

Gonna be a busy day though! Said I would write a quick post:) Hope everyone is doing well!!!:) I wish I could go back to bed ha!

Thanks Jen, OnederLAND here we come!

Thanks Iwannabefit, I agree- ive learnt from my past mistakes fosho this time:)
 
Havent posted in this in over 3 weeks i think! Anyway just wanted to write that i am currently eating well. ( after about 3 weeks of eating bold)

Currently weigh 228.5 pounds ( 16stone 4 1/2) Hopefully if i stick to eating good i will be in the 15 stones by the 1st of Nov!

Hope everyone is doing well!!:)
 
Irish! Remember me? Ohhh it's been a long time. Looks like you slipped up the same as me, but so glad we are both back ready to kick some serious butt! I'm at 220 now so we are very close--Let's keep each other focused! Good luck babes xo
 
of course I remember you gal!!:) Yup we are very close in weight but you look a MILLION times smaller than me, you are so lucky u are so tall!!!:) we can totally do succeed this time

Today was good, ate up to 1350 cals, did 40 arms exercise. I was starving today when I went shopping, then I started trying on dresses and got disgusted as they wouldn't go neaaaaaar me, and if they did fit looked absolutely ridiculous!!

Anyway, have a busy day tomorrow ahead of me, so hopefully I can remain eating good. I am sooooo sick of being FATTTTT.

I cant afford to eat bad coz I will be going for interviews soon annnnd I wont feel confident at the weight I am!

My eyebrows are looking shoooooooocking.

OMG: EDIT- Broke out, had 1 bar of choc 133 and another 250, bagel and butter,420 some diet coke 0.5, tea 40, 4 busicuts, 240.

That means I consumed a little over 2000 cals I think!! jesus

Its like a switch went of in my brain and I ate bad, so dispaointed, need to control myself much more in the future:(
