Bad Day :(

Hi Dolls,

 I was having a bad week last week but I really thought that I did okay with the fitness part as the diet didn't go down as well! At my weekly weigh in I was up 4 pound's :( I'm soooo angry with myself for gaining that much weight I really wanted just to go home and eat as much junk food that I could but I didn't I went home put on my fitness DVD thing and sweat the stress out of me! 

The DVD that I do is:

Clare Nasir's Boot-camp

I cut out the DVD front cover and have it stuck to the front of my fridge along with my Weight Watchers Weigh in card as a kind of motivation boost! 

Its a very good workout if your stick to it and the meal plan that is also given you can lose up to 2lbs a week! I kinda just do what I can  with that DVD but what I miss out on that DVD I make up with what I do on the EA Sports Active 2 Game for the Wii Console! Now that game is hard!! Omg... the first time I used it I worked-out so hard that I had to get sick half way into it! 

This week I am going to be super, super good Oh, and I need to start  back with drinking my water for some reason I didn't take as much water in the past few weeks, I think that kinda slows me down as well. I will be downing water like there is no tomorrow ha-ha

My Story

Hi Dolls,

growing up all my life I was always a healthy weight I was never an overweight person never ate junk food, take away's or fizzy drinks! That was until I became pregnant! Over the nine months I was waiting on my lovely little boy to arrive I did nothing but eat sweets and take away's! I went from a size 8-10 and 9st 4lb up to a size 16-18 and 12st 11lb!! I didn't see my weight as a problem as I though 'oh when I have my little boy it will fall off!!' Eh.... was I wrong or what ha-ha 

My weight never really bothered me but for the last year or two my confidence has really taking a knock over it. I absolutely hate summer time I hate showing my body any part of it!

I cant even look at myself in the mirror and feel disgust about my self and my body! And I really want to change that! I want to feel happy, sexy and confidant, I want to wear all the clothes I look at but never have the bottle to buy or even try on! I don't want to have to keep looking to the back of the clothes rails for my size I wanna just go into a shop and pick up a top or dress from the front wear they hang all the small sizes! I know everyone is lovely no matter size, shape or color they are but when you have no confidence you don't think straight! 

So far my weight has gone from 12st 11 lb to 11st 8lb :) I'm soooo happy with they weight I have lost everyone is telling me that I look great but for some strange reason I still haven't seen any difference in my clothes... well apart from one or two things but that's about it. I still have another 16lbs to lose but I know that I will get to my goal weight this time and be happy with my body! 

When I started out wanting to lose weight I was all about the final picture but going to my WW  ( weight watchers ) meetings has made me look at making smaller more realistic goals.... saying to your self  'I want to lose a pound by next weeks weigh in' is a good goal but saying ' oh by my next weigh in i want to be down  8 pounds is not only bad for your health but very dangerous aswell! 

If you stick to small goals you will always reach your bigger goal in the end!

As for exerciser I walk for about 4-6 miles a day, I do the EA Sports Active Fitness Game for the Wii Console for about 40-55mins most days, this game kicks butt it is so hard... for me anyway ha-ha :) If im not doing the Wii game or walking I'm running the house playing games with my son, having a 3 year old wears you out and is such a great workout  ha-ha

One thing that always sticks in my mind is a saying that I heard one day at one of the very first WW meetings that I went to and that saying was......

Tried and Failed Diets

Hi Dolls,

I have tried so many fad diets, diet pills, detoxes, fat burners, carb blockers anything you can think of I have probably tried it! I don't want to name any of the pills or diets I have been on, as they have had a bad effect on my health well not to bad of an effect but I have suffered ' Mistry pains in my stomach, head aches, dizzy spells alot of different side effects, and I wouldn't want anyone else to put their health at risk! I have stopped taking all types of diet pills, slimming teas and anything that has detox on the label! 

Now I'm living a more healthy life style:)

One of the diet's that I was on was Weight Watcher's! I have joined Weight Watcher's 4 Times!! Each time I only lost 3-4 pounds and then I would leave! 

I joined back up with Watcher Watcher's 6 weeks ago and I have stuck to it this time...Yay :) 

It is pretty easy now with the new Pro Points System I get 29 Pro Points a day and now in stead of having to save up points if I want to have a take away or drink everyone gets an extra 49 Pro Points to do with as you please, which is fab news! You can use them all in one day or spread them out over the week! 

I go to a Monday meeting my leader is very nice he is so funny and always has great tips and successful story's to tell, I stay for every meeting. Hearing peoples story's and what they have done to get where they are is very motivational and always gives me the extra push to go home and knock on the Wii Fit Game ..... oh and to stick with it  ha-ha :)
