What my day should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 Cup of Milk and 1 teaspoon of raw sugar
10.30am = morning tea (one choice from plans options)
1pm = 1/2 chicken schnitzel, 1/2 cup of brown rice and 2 cups of vegetables
4pm = afternoon tea (one choice from options)
7pm = Dinner (Portion control)

Total calories for the day 1960

Day 132

What my day should look like:

1pm = 1/2 chicken schnitzel, 1/2 cup of brown rice and 2 cups of vegetables
4pm = afternoon tea (one choice from options)
7pm = Dinner (Portion control)

11.15am

Right so it's important that I plan my eating around my days while I am out of the office doing viewings. I am having morning tea right now so that I can have lunch later as well

I am no longer allowed to travel with money and I need to focus on not allowing myself time to stop

What my day should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon on raw sugar
10.30am = morning tea (one choice from plans options)
1pm = 1/2 chicken schnitzel, 1/2 cup of brown rice and 2 cups of vegetables
4pm = afternoon tea (one choice from options)
7pm = Dinner (Portion control)

11.40am

I have already had lunch today as I am about to head out of the office for work and be gone until about 4pm.

Total Calories for the Day - 1930

This wasn't a good day, as I wasn't in routine. I was out of the office most of the afternoon doing viewings and I though that having lunch early would be good. It wasn't as I got hungry and 4pm and eat another meal.

Day 130

What my day should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon on raw sugar
10.30am = morning tea (one choice from plans options)
1pm = 1/2 chicken schnitzel, 1/2 cup of brown rice and 2 cups of vegetables
4pm = afternoon tea (one choice from options)
7pm = Dinner (Portion control)

2.07pm

It's good to be writing in here again. 130 days into running a blog, even though I did do almost 2 weeks with no entry. Having a holiday and time is important.

Right so trying to put myself back on the cut. So far not amazing. Here's why. My eyes are bigger than my stomach. I say this because I was all prepared this morning. I had all the things out of the cupboard that I needed for breakfast and left them on the bench, as I remembered last minute that I had an early morning chiropractor appointment.

After the appointment I went to get food for breakfast and gobbled down too much. My breakfast equaled 700 calories. Not a good start but a great learning point.

2.13pm

I look forward to this cut helping me save money again.

Total Calories were 1830. Could be better but could be worse

CUT 3 - to the end of the year

Right, so I believe it's fair to say that I took a full two weeks off eating and exercising. I got married, it happens.

Last week I planned by next cut, which involves re-introducing dinners into my diet, working on portion control and as usual working really hard to resisting my cravings.


Here you can see the cut that I have planned. 

Next I have exemption days from the cut. These are days that I already know are not going to work and days that I don't want to have to say, not I can't eat that. They are as follows:

3rd of December - Staff Do Day
17th of December - Theatre Christmas Do
24th, 25th and 26th of December - Christmas
31st of December - New Years

These are the days that I know of. Other days or meals are likely to pop up with it coming into the holiday season, these I am planning to allow for. 

This means that sticking to the plan is imperative so I can afford these days. 

Lastly, this week I am back on the cut, but I am easing into it as my food in take has been quite high, cutting that down is going to be a challenge perhaps. By Thursday, perfect days is the aim for there on out!

Day 128 & 129

Alright so after this weekend I am back on a cut and I do have a big plan lined up for this one taking me to the end of the year.

Basically, results are great, but I am going for an overall change and I am using these cuts to accomplish this.

The weekend was wondering, full of eating eating eating. Shocking foods too.

Day 127

I didn't write anything down for today. Actually had a ridiculously busy day at work. But what I can say is that I have my plan all set.

Day 126

3.16pm

No set eating plan for today, or the next few. I've back to planning for my next cut which is going to take me through to the end of the year.

There are days and meals that I need to plan into this as I'm not certain what could be happening where. And obviously Christmas day and New Years I will take off.

But I still want to loose more weight!

Friends birthday today. Didn't have breakfast because I knew there would be cake. So I have know had cake as my breakfast.

Right so from this point up until day 125 I didn't post in here. I got busy and got married and went away.

I am back now, back into it then

D = 12 almonds, 1 serving of fruit and lemon water

Right need to re-evaluate my cut.

11.36am

I proved on the first cut I did that this works, now I'm struggling because I don't have the same energy and commitment to put into it right now.

I still have a week before the wedding to get below 90kgs and I can do that. So that is what I am going to do, then from after the wedding leading up to the Christmas and New Years Holidays I am going to focus on introducing dinners and my portion control with them.

What my day actually looked like:
Lemon Water
B = Chicken Kabab
10.30am = Protein Cookie x 2

Sometimes we see more than we need
And sometimes we see nothing you want

Food is as much visual
as it is
smell, taste and fulfillment.

Controlling this, well that's the challenge

By seeing more
we eat more
By seeing nothing we want
we eat more searching for something
we want

Food control
Self Control

Learn your body
Learn your hunger

Provide what it needs not want it wants
eventually
wants will change
needs never will

Day 110

What my day should look like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon of raw rugar
10.30am = Protein Bar
1pm = 1/2 chicken Schnitzel, 1/2 Cup of Brown Rice and 2 Cups of Vegetables
4pm = Protein Shake
D = Smoothie - 1 x banana, 1 handful of strawberries, 1 scoop of protein powder and water

10.11am

Had a good day yesterday and the scales reflected that. 91.9kgs. I'm going to see 90 this week.

4.40pm

Right so I had subway for lunch today. This is actually really high in calories like Sushi, Shocking. Anyway, basically what has happened is that I haven't taken the time to make my lunches as I didn't have time last weekend. This has resulted in me buying. Now I don't believe what I have been buying is bad but it's still not good that this is what I have been doing.

I will be making a bulk lot of meals tonight if I have time to sort this out!

What my day actually looked like:

Isn't this just the way of it. It's dawned on me this morning that I have gotten really busy and pre-occupied with work, gym and wedding preparation that over this week my eating hasn't been good.

My body is even telling me this, as I had dinner last night and my body threw it up.

I am not eating enough calories to gain weight as maintaining my current weight I can eat up to 2500 and yesterday I was have been at 1950. However this amount of calories isn't going to show that much of a weight loss on me and that is what I want.

Focus points then:

-Portion control over meals. The subway that I had for lunch yesterday was amazing but I should not of had a foot long. That is how the old me ate, not how my body wants to eat now. Same again for dinner last night when my partner and I went and got dinner - chinese food. I got the second smallest container but from now on I should always get the small. Also when it comes to getting something (whatever that may be - a bar, slice, chip etc) I must only ever get one.

-Routine/Eating Schedule. Now I have taught my body to expect food at particular times, and this works. However I have gone off it. This is something I need to get back on board with!

-Breakfasts. Basically I have been so lazy this week that I haven't had a proper breakfast. It's been bought or leftovers.

-Lastly. Dinner. I want to work out how I can bring this back into my eating.

1.49pm

I was out of the office for lunch today and had Sushi. Not bad food, however Sushi is actually quite high in calories as it's white rice and there is a fair bit of it.

Day 108

What my day should look like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 Weetbix, 1 Cup of Milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar
10.30am = Protein Bar
1pm = 1/2 chicken Schnitzel, 1/2 Cup of Brown Rice and 2 Cups of Vegetables
4pm = Protein Shake
D = Smoothie - 1 x Banana, 1 handful of frozen strawberries, 1 scoop of protein powder and water

11.35am

So far so good, however I did have meat for breakfast this morning, a burger pattie and a few lamb stir fry strips. From my experiences last week, the mornings are where I am going to allow myself these changes, just no other time in the day.

1.26pm

I ended up having morning tea late today, at about 11.40 so I'm just not hungry yet for lunch which is fine by me. I had a Protein Bar and a Protein Brownie for morning tea, so those will also keep to fuller for longer.

So far I have had too many calories today. The Bar and Brownie was silly, one of them is all that I need to sustain my hunger till lunch, two of them and I'm not hungry.

3.38pm

I did have too much food this morning, but the choice of food wasn't bad. I'm interested to know what my calories will be so long as I stay perfect for this evening.

I started this cut with a weigh in at 93.3kgs and this morning I weight in at 92.1kgs.

I hit 91.9 kgs last week which is what I was hoping to see this morning. Next week i really want to see 91kgs on the low side and would kill to see 90 on the scales!

What my day actually looked like:

Right, so I don't want to get into the evening. I had a naughty night and that's where I'll leave it. I feel bad enough about my food quantity that I don't want to right down what. What I will say is that I had a little over 2300 calories

D = Smoothie - 1 x Banana, 1 handful of frozen strawberries, 1 scoop of protein powder and water

10.24am

So far so good on the cut. I did change the breakfast again. Have hash browns because I had weights this morning and need carbs for a quick recovery for work. This still shouldn't effect my overall calories count.

2.40pm

Right so no lunch today or morning tea. I had a bloody slice.

Now let me tell you, I am not happy that I just had one of these, but I am happy to say that it has been 7 days since I last had one. I'm happy with that at least

4pm = Protein Shake
D = lemon water, 12 almonds and 1 serving of fruit

10.08am

I went through the past two days not craving the bad food because I was allowing myself it. Now that it's no longer allowed, I'm craving it. Stupid body/head.

For breakfast, I didn't feel like Eggs, so I have weetbix instead and if I feel like it I'll do the eggs tomorrow morning, that way I have just swapped those two meals around.

12.46pm

Right so turns out I forgot to put chicken schnitzel in my lunch, so I'm having a vegetarian lunch.

One year. This is literally one year of progress and transformation. I can't believe it. I can't believe I did it. I can't believe I got on a plane a year ago all alone headed to Mexico to go under the knife to just hope I had a chance at a normal life. I:

FOUR WEEK CUT RESULTS

When I started the cut four weeks ago

Weight: 96.6 kgs
Measurements
Bust: 99cm
Waist: 88cm
Hips: 113cm
Thigh: 64cm


At the end of the four week cut

Weight 92.2 kgs (4.4 kgs lost)
Measurements
Bust: 95cm (lost 4cm)
Waist: 82cm (lost 6cm)
Hips: 106cm (lost 7cm)
Thigh: 62cm (lost 2cm)

That's pretty good, I have to say. The best news of all is that I fit my wedding dress!!!

Day 99, 100 & 101

Labour weekend. I'll admit, this was a hard weekend to stay good in. I did falter and have dinner and desert with my Family on Sunday night, other than that I think I did a really good job staying inline with my eating.

Possibly the best weekend I have done on the cut.

Saturday - 2000
Sunday - 2210
Monday - 1260

Calories aren't amazing, but my weekends have been so much worse than these numbers

Day 98

What my day should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon of raw sugar
10.30am = Protein Bar
1pm = 1/2 Chicken Schnitzel, 1/2 Cup of Brown Rice and 2 Cups of Vegetables
4pm = Protein Shake
D = 1 serving of fruit, 12 almonds and lemon water

10.37am

Not a very good start to the day. I had an early appointment at the chiropractor this morning, and for some supid reason decided to buy myself breakfast after it because I didn't arrange to bring any with me.

I had about 600 calories for breakfast.

10.41am

The good thing is that I have put together a packed bag for food that I can eat over the weekend. I am determined on making my weekends good.

1700 calories is what I have had for the past two days. Now this isn't the end of the world but I am wanting to aim for below 1500 and ideally somewhere between 1200 and 1300 would be best.

This is so that I can lose weight faster.

I have been putting together a set, generic plan for the next few weeks leading up to the wedding. From the wedding through to the 16th of November I will then be having my next break, then after that. I will be setting the plan in motion again.

Basically I am aiming at turning this plan into my normal everyday life. When things pop up, as they do, I can eat because 90% of the time I am being good.

My partner had a good suggestion last night which I would like to take into account.

It's to not allow myself sweets, even on my cheats

2.55pm

Because of my morning, I can still feel the food in my stomach and it doesn't feel nice. I haven't even been able to eat lunch today. Not good at all.

What my day actually looked like:

Lemon Water
B = 1 x pie and 2 x hashbrowns
10.30am = 2 x cookies
1pm =
4pm = Protein Shake
D = lemon water, 4 almonds, 1 protein cookie

12.53pm

Not good at all. Had a caramel slice today. Again, I went to the supermarket because I was going in to get a few things for work and came out with a caramel slice for myself.

Breakfast was different too, I have 2 x cheese toasties. I did this last night for dinner as well and the reason why is because my recovery time has seriously decreased after I've done a big workout at the gym. So I decided to get some carbs in to help this out.

I think it's worked as I'm not feeling as sore now as I was.

12.57pm

Right now I am easily weighing in at 92 kgs. I'm going to seriously push this over the next four days so see if I can see 90 or 89 on the scales.

What my day actually looked like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x cheese toasties
10.30am = Caramel Slice

4pm = Atkins chocolate bar
D = 2 x cheese toasties
Desert of 2 x Atkins Chocolate Bars

Not a very good day. I was in a funny place and just wanted food once I had gotten home from the gym. My total calories ended up being 1780, which is still on the weight loss side of things for me, but could be better. Obviously

Right so feeling much better right now, my weight went down. I sorted myself out with good eating, just going to continue this now.

I'm coming up with a few ideas for my next series I guess. Leading up to the wedding.

These four weeks have taught me a lot and that is what I need to take from then, adapt and improve on.

1.27pm

Yum lunch. I do very much enjoy the rice, veges and chicken.

2.01pm

Next week I will be giving myself 2 weeks off the cut. Tuesday and Wednesday. The I will be running it right up to the wedding.

The main focuses:

Weekends need to stay on point
Keeping the same times as weekdays is best
Eating the same foods is good
Important to eat what you want to have not something you will hate
Allowing yourself healthy treats - atkins chocolate, protein cookies etc

2.13pm

The end result is worth it, more than it

Lemon Water
B = 2 x eggs, 1/4 cup of grated cheese and two slices of very thin vogel toast

I eat too much and that is on me.

11.43am

So basically I have decided to keep my plan going. I am going to give myself perhaps 2 days off in the middle of next week and then run a plan for the rest of the week.

My biggest challenge is weekends!!

I have to sort out the weekends!

2.58pm

I already feel better, just from eating well from today.

4pm = Protein Shake
D = Smoothie of 1 x Banana, Handfull of Frozen Strawberries, 1 scoop of Protein Powder and water

Total Calories for the day is 1340

Changing my dinner and morning tea did result in adding extra calories to my over all count, however the dinner change was a good one. It was yum, filling and I wanted it. The morning tea change I should have avoided.

STICK IT OUT

It will be worth it

Replace "I can't eat that" with
i DON'T eat that
I don't eat that I don't eat that I don't eat that I don't eat that I don't eat that I don't eat that I don't eat that

Rewards - not food

a beauty appointment
new clothes
going to the movies
a night on the town
new shoes
a trip

the best reward still remains
THAT SMILE YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR

IT'S not ABOUT anyone ELSE

YOU!!!!

The Weekend is NOT my challenge

no longer a challenge
I CAN DO THIS

It's really that simple

Emotional eating binges can take over a positive mindset and over rule will power. You have to learn how to combat these urges, but it all starts with making a choice. First you have to choose to recognize what triggers the binge. You may not be able to do anything about it the first few times, but if you can at least recognize when emotions like stress/anger/frustration make you crave certain foods you will be able to stop.:

Week 4 of the cut

Day 92 & 93

Right so I'm not happy, but I've done this. I haven't eaten well at all over the past four days really - since the creditors evening at work.

It's shocking and my weight hasn't gone down as a result of it.

I'm going to be doing a plan for next week now. I don't think I can afford a week off!

Day 91

What my day should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 eggs, 1/4 Cup of grated cheese and 2 slices bacon
10.30am = protein bar
1pm = 1 x chicken with 2 handfuls of salad (cheese ok)
4pm = Protein Shake
D = 12 almonds, 1 serving of fruit and lemon water

10.43am

A not so good yesterday, but oh well. This is one of those things that just happen which can't be avoided.

What I should have avaoided was stopped at the diary on the way to work and buying that chocolate I just eat.

This is key!!!! Don't do that Charlotte!!!!

There will be things like last night where they just happened, but this morning. Not the case. That I should not have done.

12.28pm

It is becoming a habit, the way I am eating now.

Absolutely shocking Day in all honestly.

Probably 3000

Day 90

What my say should look like:

Lemon Water
B = 2 x weetbix, 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon of raw sugar
10.30am = Protein Shake
1pm = 1/2 Chicken Schnitzel, 1/2 Cup of brown rice and 2 cups of veges
4pm = Protein Bar
D = Lemon Water, 12 almonds and 1 serving of fruit

11.09am

Very proud of my day yesterday and again this morning. I really really wanted to stop and buy food, but I didn't!!!

2.28pm

I'm starting to find that I can function quite easily on 1300 - 1400 calories a day. I'm considering not giving myself a break week now actually lol

What my day actually looked like:

It was good up until Afternoon Tea. At work we had a creditors evening which had lots of food at and resulted in us all snacking throughout the event.

At a guess I would have eaten around 2000 - 2500 calories yesterday because of it

Lemon Water

4pm = Protein Shake (half and half mix)
D = 1 serving of fruit, 12 almonds and lemon water

10.36am

It's probably time to set up my fourth week of the cut.

For breakfast today i was naughty and had potato chips (carbs), I didn't feel up to cooking eggs and when I was getting the veges out for lunch to cook, I saw them and thought yes.

If they weren't in the house I would have been ok but I need to learn how to handle having something like that in the house.

10.38am

I'm starting to see the light at the end of the cut. I really want to be below 90kgs by the end and right now I am 92. This is possible.

I'm excited to try the wedding dress on at the end, especially now that I took my measurements today.

10.41am

I think I will do a plan for the fifth week, even though I am technically off the cut then. Just so that I can see if I can keep the days around the 2000 calorie mark.

10.48am

I am proud of myself for not stopping this morning though. I had the chips and thought well I've already failed today why not go get a caramel slice on the way to work but I didn't. I stopped myself. I'm proud of that.

10.59am

Tonight I am going to focus on having my set dinner, nothing else!

What my day actually looked like:

Lemon Water
B = Hot Chips
1pm = 2 x chichen tenders, 1/2 Cup of Brown Rice and 2 Cups of Veges (I had no salad at home)
2pm = Protein Shake
D = 8 Almonds, Banana, Lemon Water and a bit of Venison Meat

Total Calories for the day is 1300 - GOOD

Been a busy day at work and had quite the stressful morning. I need to focus on maintaining a positive manner even when I find things hard.
