So today i am starting the Cambridge Diet as the last stage of my "New Life Plan"!
2 Years ago i did the lighter life diet and although i did really well, i have put most of the weight back on. I wasn't really in the right place to keep it off i don't think, however , 6 months ago, i decided that my life could only get better if i made it happen, hence my new life plan.
I have moved house, changed jobs and have started having councilling to deal with the break down of my 20 year relationship which has had a massive effect on my life. The only thing i'm unhappy with now is my weight and my lack of self esteem that goes with it. So, yesterday i decided enough was enough. I start a new diet every day, and every day i fail. It's exhausting!
I looked for CD councillers on line, phones someone and two hours later was driving home with my supply of shakes.
This is it, no more putting my life on hold while waiting to be slim, today the slimmer me starts, and tomorrow i will be slimmer than today.
So, so far so good. Water water water and one shake. My children are at their Dads today but i am looking after someone elses child (i need to learn to say no!). I'm taking him out for lunch later, but i won't be tempted, i want this too much.
I'm hoping this diary wll keep me occupied dring some of the extra time i'll have now food is out of the equation. Also something to look back on when it gets tough which i know it will at times. So here's to a successful first day! Am noe off to the loo, which is where i imagine i'll be spending plenty of time today
