Fat Girl Slim Week 3 Update

So this week has been traumatic. There's no getting round the stress that's happening right now.

I'm just off another 12 hour shift at work. But at least tomorrow I'll get to shine there (loooooong story)

So on with the update, the last thing i though about this week was healthy eating. Between work and the none work stuff I've just been stuffing things in as and when i remember. You'd think that would help with weight loss but instead when i have eaten its been bags of marshmallows and Big Macs.

At least the scales say I've stayed the same.....

Should really probably buy new batteries for it though......

But with things looking on the up at both the work and personal fronts, and the fact i have a huge event to attend at the end of next month (and a dress for it that wont do up) I'm determined to achieve my goals on this.

Oooooo Cocktails......

P.S Don't ever eat cheese on toast then immediately attempt the 30 day shred. It does not end well.

Fat Girl Slim Week 2 Update

Another week has gone by and its that scary stand on the scales time again.

I would like to point out that my scales are currently running out of battery (they're digital) so I'm not overly sure how accurate they are just now.

The week started well.

I did the 30 day shred (aka being curled up in the foetal position gasping for breath)

For a few days.

I couldn't move after a few days in, my thighs wouldn't co-operate with the command to move my legs in a walking motion.

So i switched to a bit of yoga (Penny Smith Power Yoga) to try and stretch out a bit.

The warm up almost killed me. I used to do the entirety of this DVD everyday (i was bendy like Geri) so this was really disappointed in this.

I'll confess, i ate A LOT of cake and pizza at the end of the week (while sat on the couch with a hot water bottle). But as a woman, I'm sure you'll understand, sometimes we NEED this.

Despite this the scales were kind and I stayed the same as last week.

So I'm still 2 pounds down 22 to go!

The next couple of weeks are going to be quite stressful for me. I started my new job today and I'm now be getting a bus to work rather than walking so I'm not overly hopeful on the weight loss front.

Lunch is about to get a whole lot healthier!

But i do have better options for things to have for lunch and I'll be powering up my My Fitness Pal App again so hopefully I'll work it out.

Fat Girl Slim: Week 1 Update

So first off so far i have managed to blog everyday in October, go me!

I find its always best to start on a positive note...now onto the update.


Well....


you see....


the thing is.....


I didn't lose anything this week. I didn't gain anything either so i suppose that's a win in a way.

(grasping at straws here people!).

I'm going to blame my very confusing week that involved running about not really knowing whether I'm going or going half the time.

Its probably more to do with the fact that i ate alot of pizza, had to many sweets and drank to much gin.

But i'm getting my game face on for this week, not just on the healthy eating front but i've got a huge few weeks coming up at work and i've a few other plans which are hopefully coming together soon as well.

Exciting times lay ahead! :-)

If you would like to join me on this journey make sure you follow for my updates.

And if you have any tips on not casually munching on the giant bag of maltesers that floats around the office please let me know in a comment below!

0 lbs down 24 to go!

If only this apple tasted like cake......

Fell off the wagon....

So blogtober day 2.

As the title may suggest all my healthy new plans from yesterday have already fell by the wayside.


This happened.....

And this is just my one!

And while that happened there may have been a few glasses of gin and tonic washing it down.

I was at my friends helping her plan for her wedding and trying on my bridesmaids dress (I REALLY need to get back on the healthy wagon :-s)

So obviously we had to have a few drinks and watch don't tell the bride. Reception at the space centre?...Yes please!!

Odd thing happened on the way home.

I jumped in a black cab and the driver already knew where I was going.

Anyone else think that's kind of creepy?
How's your blogtober going?
