Hi guys and gals,
Right I have been on this time and time again and each time I failed miserably because I was useless. Im sorry if I seem hard on myself but honestly Im sick of all the excuses I keep giving myself. Its time to buck up and shape up
I am 24, I am in or around 14 and half stone and my target weight is 12. I have polycystic ovary syndrome, a horrific battle with yo yo dieting and a terrible addiction to sugar..
Before hand I used to get so down, and today as I guzzled down a coke and ate an all butter flapack after a kfc lunch and yawned I nearly cried and then something said right before you change your attitude has to.
So anyway enough of the sympathy that I have been giving myself for long enough now. Its time for me to cop the hell on, stop making excuses and do my best so that I can lose weight, feel good, stop napping and most importantly lose my obsession with food and weight and jst be healthy because life is way too short.
Right first things first, my energy levels have dropped, Im not eating any fruit or veg and almost everything that goes into my mouth has become convenient. My skin is dry, Im not the fit girl I once was and Im getting sick all the time not to mention my periods are all over the place.
So its time for a change.
The diet Im following is low GI and low sugar. Its been recommended to me by my dietician but I have never actually used it. I am going to focus hugely on eating loads of fresh veg and just really try my best to eat good healthy food. Secondly the other part of my plan is doing the 25 min walk to and from work instead of the bus.. along with the gym three times a week in order to tone. After a month I will then look at upping this. I have been walking and doing bits here and there so Im not rushing into the exercise.
I have decided that I am not weighing myself. For me personally I find the scales throw me off. I am trying to think positively and focus on losing weight through becoming healthy. At this stage there is so much more then just my jean size, so I have decided to put a ban on weighing myself if at all possible. I find that somedays I have felt amazing and then realise I didnt lose anything and I spent the rest of the day comfort eating. I have reached a point where I dont want to continue this dieting spiral for the rest of my life, and I just want to be happy with who I am and I just want to feel young and healthy again, not lethargic and bursting out of all my clothes.
To start myself off I am putting myself on a refined sugar ban for 4 weeks. This is to give myself a detox and to regain energy.
I start tomorrow. Please wish me luck.
