Happy Clothing Update:
- My "pleather" jacket suddenly fits over my hips without my fat bulging under it!!!
- I almost have no muffin top in my jeans - hooray!
- My blue work shirt is really loose and flowy - good cause I'm smaller, bad cause it looks better tighter. But now I can tuck it into high waisted skirts! yay!!
Weigh-Day Update:
Unfortunately the dinner reservation has been pushed back to November. But I'm still going to work toward the 16th of September as my weigh day. Hopefully my goal dress won't be too loose anywhere (like my fast shrinking boobs!) by the time of the dinner. Might be investing in some additional padding there for the dinner hahaha
My Rock:
So while my boyfriend continues to battle his never ending addiction to chocolate and wine/beer, he has succeeded at being supportive of me and my diet goals.
He has stopped constantly offering me the unhealthy things he snacks on, doesn't encourage me to drink anymore and keeps the snacks out of my line of sight (this helps me so much!). He is also finally getting that I am an VERY SMALL person.
He's even coming out for big walks with me! We walked for 1.5hrs AFTER his rugby game. And this is coming from a man who HATES walking anywhere; rugby and gym - no problem, but walking? Nuh-uh! I'm sure the Pokemon Go is helping.
But he only re-downloaded it for me so we could walk together. So I'm really grateful.
And the best part, so many compliments and words of encouragement!
"I can't stop checking out your butt", "you're feeling so much smaller in my arms, I can tell you're losing weight", "you're looking really good", "seriously, how much weight have you lost?!" etc. He is being so sweet about it all. I have no idea how big of a change there really is (I mean it's only been 2.5 weeks since he last saw me), but it's definitely helping.
I love this man so much!! <3
A Tribute To My Favourite Breakfast:
I miss my cheese toasties already
I have flavoured chia seed/porridge sachets and raspberry porridge sachets. Not a fan. I mean they taste great... And I don't feel hungry for HOURS. But such a disappointing breakfast!
I like my daily dose of cheese, tomato/onion/mushrooms and bread. It may not be as healthy or low-GI... But it tastes amazing, it's hot, makes everyone else in the office jealous and contains 10g's of protein, which I consider pretty darn good for what it is! It's like a treat every morning (without actually being "bad"). It's my comfort food. It makes Monday's in the office worth turning up for. There is a cheese and tomato toastie shaped whole in my life until I return to Sydney.
