Day 10 (18th)
What was the hardest thing you gave up in this weightloss?
Weirdly enough it’s felt easy so far until the PMS kicked in. Chocolate and white bread was something I really craved! I’ve been having stuff like Wagon Wheels (chocolate biscuits, big ‘uns!) and pain au chocolat, and white bread buns. Thankfully I’ve only gone minorly over my expected calorie intake of 1200-1400 (I’ve been having too much by between 200 & 300, nothing like the excess I had before I started! It could get to 3000cals+ a day without me even noticing!) It’s a little set back but I’m in no real rush, as long as I see a different of at least 3lbs month to month I’ll know I’m at least doing it ok.
Day 11 (19th)
Your favourite thinspo blog and why.
I like Imgonnamakeachange and her Tumblr, she was one of the things that triggered me doing this. Her and ShayCarls transformation were the catalysts. I realised it was possible for normal people to get fit, not just the rare person you see on TV.
Day 12 (20th)
What do you normally eat?
My safe options are: (on a good day!)
BREAKFAST - 1 slice brown bread, “lighter” butter, boiled egg (eat the white and spread the yolk onto the bread) sometimes if I feel like it I’ll grate a tiny bit of cheese on there (Sounds weird but it’s soooo gooooood!) A cup of tea with semi skimmed milk and sweetener. (Can’t do without proper milk!)
(EST 280 cals?)
LUNCH - Cheese toasty made with brown toast and no butter, keeping the cheese minimal, with PILES of lettuce on the side! If I’m especially hungry I’d have some veg instead (Broccolli, peas, carrot and sweetcorn)
(EST 300-400cals?)
DINNER - Weight Watchers Soup - Chicken Noodle (51kcal) when I want room for sweets or Carrot and Lentil (86kcal) otherwise I’d then have some bread with that too if I needed more cals, usually don’t though due to nutella indulgence and banana’s for snacks.
(Around 50-200 cals depending on the snack intake between meals)
Is that bad? It seems like not enough. I’ve probably just got the calorie count wrong but I have snacks and/or extra veg/fruit to make it up to at least 1,200 calories.
Day 13 (21st)
Are you losing your weight in a healthy or unhealthy way.
Well I’m trying my best to be healthy, but when you’re full on 900 calories and you went over by a little the day before you kinda can’t resists letting those 300 extra calories slide… Also I may have once done something I shouldn’t really do when intending to be healthy but it was a one off and was because I ingested something under the impression that it was less calories than it was… (sorry :( )
