Morning weight: 145.8lbs (damnit going the wrong way!) Not much else to say, ate vaguely well, avoided alcohol even though I went to two leaving dos at the pub, had a ham sandwich at lunch, didn’t eat half of it because the Toby Carvery food’s crap! For dinner, we made homemade pizzas (chicken, yellow peppers, [...]

Today’s morning weight: 145.6lbs Had an english muffin for breakfast, veggie ciabatta for lunch, an apple, a banana, two herbal teas and no snacky stuff!

I ate well today, drank loads of water, did sitting-situps (when you tense and release your diaphragm very slowly) while at work, got home, did dishes, dinner, then went for a good brisk 25 minutes walk (with a pathetic attempt at jogging for about 3-4 minutes). Now I feel fantastic! [...]

Email me at thatcanadiangirl {a} gmail dot com if you want to join the fitness challenge, or just know what I’m hiding behind those passworded posts. I just think that by making the posts passworded, Google won’t index the posts containing my weight I’m resisting the bad bad Belgian Chocolates and the Portuguese cookies!

So this is day 1 Starting weight on April 11th: 146.2lbs Goal weight by May 13th: 139lbs (hey, I’m being realistic here!) Goals for the day: Eat homemade bulgur with chicken and tomatoes, buy yogurt for pudding, nothing more. Have herbal tea this afternoon. As Jo bought us fine belgian chocs, allow myself ONE with [...]

Since the month-long Christmas binge, I’ve gained a bit of, lets say, baby fat. (One can still have baby fat at 23, right?) Either way, these love handles definitely seem to be holding on a bit too long. So here’s the plan, I’d be grateful if some of you offered a bit of moral support, [...]
