Day 76
What my day should look like:
Lemon Water
B = 1 cup of wholemeal oats, 1 cup of water and 1 cup of milk
10.30am = Protein Shake
1.30pm = 1 x chicken breast, 2 handfuls of salad and can add cheese
4.30pm = protein bar
D = 2 cups of cooked veges and 2 Tablespoons of fiber powder
10.58am
I have faulted today and had two cookies that where in the office. Right now I am finding the mornings to be the hardest. When I am driving into to work and all I can think of is stopping somewhere to get something.
Getting to work only takes me 10 to 15 minutes, so what I should be aiming to do is spending more time at home before I leave to go to work. Not giving myself the time to stop.
11am
I need to not eat it. I need to do this. This is on me. I want this so I need to make it happen. I am ready to look in the mirror and be happy so I am going to make it that when I look in the mirror I am happy.
11.04am
I am setting myself targets for this four weeks cut which seem reasonable to get me down by 10 kgs at the end of it.
Week 1 end : 92kg
Week 2 end : 89 - 90kg
Week 3 end : 87-88kg
Week 4 end : 86kg
That makes this look completely do-able
2.56pm
I'm feeling sick today, I think it is because my body can feel the quilt from have those cookies today! Tomorrow I will have a perfect day!
4.31pm
I think I have given my body a good flush of water today. 2L to be exact along with the cup of lemon juice this morning and 4 cups of green tea so far. This has helped me out - I'm not feeling as sick any more.
Perfect day tomorrow here I come!
4.37pm
I have boot camp tonight too - yay.
4.38pm
I've done a calorie check for next week as I've noticed that some of my days this week go above 1600 calories. Each day next week is below 1500 calories on the plan.
What my day actually looked like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 x scarmbled eggs, 2 slices of cheese and 2 strips of bacon
10.30am = 2 x mini afghan cookies
1.30pm = ceasar salad
4.30pm = protein shake
D = 1 glass of lemon water, 12 almonds and 1 apple
Total calories 1640 (again too high - but this is due to the cookies)

Second week of my cut
Above is the plan I have for my second week of a cut. Now I've done a calorie count to know where each day is sitting, but a key point to note is that the calorie numbers aren't all that matter. It's what I'm putting in.
So there is nothing added, I make everything from scratch and fresh.
The only things I have that arn't fresh or I haven't made are these two items:
Chicken Schnitzel - this is frozen tegel golden crumbed chicken schnitzel - info as follows
Vegetables - I use frozen vegetables - info as follows
Lastly I have decdied to put my calorie count in my final notes for each day. so that I can use this to base my eating off even though the focus is sticking to the plan - the numbers will tell me how far I went wrong
Day 75
What my day should look like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 fried eggs, 2 slices of very thin vogel toast, 2 slices of cheese
10.30am = Protein Bar
1.30pm = 2 cup of veges and 1 cup of brown rice
4.30pm = protein shake (half and half mix)
D = 1 glass of lemon water, 12 almonds and 1 serving of fruit
11.10am
Right so I am struggling today to not go and get something yum to eat! But the other thing that I feel like I'm struggling with is that I don't want to eat some of the food I have planned.
I believe that I am going to need to mix up the foods that I have set for my tea's. I don't really want to have that many protein bars in a row. I also found that I really didn't just want rice and vegetables today. So for lunch today I brought in 1 cup of veges, 1 cup of brown rice and 1 chicken schnitzel. This way I'm much more happy to eat the meal.
I am going to go over the plan I have for next week and mix it up a little bit. I want to mix up my morning teas, I feel like I can plan for all of my dinners to be small like today's is during the working week and I've found that eggs and bacon make me feel really good at the start of the day (as I discovered yesterday)
1.20pm
I haven't had a protein bar for my morning tea like I had planned. Instead I had an apple. I'm so hungry right now. that by not having this protein bar I have learn't that they really do help with hunger!!
4.06pm
Right so I've made a few alterations to me eating plan for Week 2 of the cut. I just need to do a Calorie count to confirm we are still good.
I have made sure that I always go for protein in the morning, between breakfast and lunch but I have mixed up my afternoon tea.
What my day actually looked like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 fried eggs, 2 slices of very thin vogel toast, 2 slices of cheese
10.30am = apple
1.30pm = 1 cup of veges, 1 cup of brown rice and 1 chicken schnitzel
4.30pm = protein shake
D = 1 glass of lemon juice, 12 almonds and 1 apple
Last night I felt very hungry that I also had one slice of water bread and butter.
Total calories: 1630 (too high - I will plan this better)

Day 74
What my day should look like:
Lemon Water
B = 2 eggs scrambled, 2 slices of bacon and 1/4 cup of grated cheese
10.30am = Protein Shake (half and half mix)
1.30pm = 1 x chicken schnitzel, 1 cup of brown rice and 1 cup of veges
4.30pm = protein bar
D = 2 cups of cooked veges with 2 Tablespoons on fiber powder
11.34am
I jumped on the scales this morning and saw 94.5kg, which is almost 2 kgs lighter than yesterday morning.
This made is easier for me to stop myself from giving into my cravings. I wanted to go buy something this morning, but I did stop myself which was good. I feel really good that I didn't buy anything as well.
So, focusing on this working is a good way to go.
2.28pm
So I had my lunch and I found that it was very filling. Perhaps too much brown rice. This might be a change to make later on. Perhaps only half a cup or two thirds of a cup.
What my day actually looked like:
A perfect match again, however I did change my dinner. Instead of what I had planned, instead I had a banana and 1/4 of a capsicum.
I found last night really tricky while my partner was cooking his food. But the interesting thing was that I didn't feel like I needed any food, I just wanted it. a Lot.

Started this today
Last week I just let myself eat, whatever I wanted. So this morning I started my four week cut. I weighed in at 96.4kgs. I'm very excited to see where I will get to after my first four weeks.
Day 71 & 72
This was a weekend of not caring about what food I eat. I had fast food and ice-cream and a roast and sausages. All very yum, unhealthy and by the end of the weekend and the next day I was definitely noticing the effects of not eating anything good. My body was craving it as well.
All set to start my four week cut.
All set to start my four week cut.

Day 70
I'm not going to tell you what my day should look like because I don't have a plan for today. Basically I'm going out to dinner tonight, so I had a really big breakfast which was a Bacon and Egg Bap and a Mini Potato Top Pie, and for the rest of the day I am just snacking until Dinner.
This way I think I will be very hungry by dinner and can eat a lot.
Than I just have the weekend left of indulgence before I start my cut of Monday.
Basically I want to be at 85kgs by the end of the four weeks, which would be around about a 10kg loss. I will weight myself Monday morning when I start the cut so I know exactly where I stand when I start.
I am also thinking that after the four weeks, I will allow myself a break and then do it again until I get myself down to my goal size. Then I can incorporate a healthy lifestyle of eating to maintain my goal weight.
I'm so excited. I've ever done anything like this before, so I just cant weight to see the results.

I am committed to it and it starts on Monday.

A little self challenge
The wedding is soon, so I'm getting to the point where I want more of a change before then. So this means a plan for what I am going to allow myself to eat, what I'm not allowed to eat.
Now a little while ago I tried this
I didn't get it write. Basically I failed more days than I succeeded at, but not this time.
I am going to start this on the 26th of September which is next Monday. And instead of following a list of what I am not allowed to eat I will instead write myself a 30 day eating plan for what I have to follow - regardless of what else is happening around me.
That's the main rule - regardless of what is happening, I must follow the 30 day eating plan I set for myself!
Now this plan is going to be very similar to the eating routine I am currently doing, however it's going to have more details in it!
Also, the reason I am not starting this until Monday is because I am going to need the time to make this plan. I will put the plan up when I have it all together.
I'm starting planning now!

a very good day so far. I even found myself driving to the supermarket to buy a caramel slice, but I turned myself around. Yay me. I'll keep this up.
What my day actually looked like:
B = Oatmeal (with a teaspoon of brown sugar)
9am = Green Tea
10.30am = Protein Bar
12pm = Green Tea
1.30pm = Ham Salad Bun x2
3pm = Green Tea
4.30pm = Caramel Slice (ARRRHHHH!)
Had a F****** slice again today. I also had a huge emotional about my size, but the reality is I'm not doing good enough with my eating for my size to really be changing.
Now I'm not getting bigger, so they way I'm currently eating is the correct amount for the size I am. I don't want to be this size so I need to eat for the size I want to be, not the size I am.
I am going to be treating myself like I am two sizes smaller.

Saturday - powerlifting comp
Sunday - Rest (very sore from comp)
Day 66 & 67
Right, so I competed in a power lifting comp this weekend which meant that my eating for Saturday (the day of the comp) was really high in carbs and calories.
On Saturday I had a whole load of homemade protein cookies, a breakfast of two steak, two eggs and fries and a dinner of a beef roast.
On Sunday my eating for better. I had the last three of the protein cookies, chicken chips for lunch and a pork steak, salad and kumara for dinner.

3.17pm
Did a fear bit of research today on my body metabolic style. Apparently I have a mixed metabolic style, which means I have tendencies to overeat and not eat enough.
The suggestion that I read about for this metabolic type is to minimize my eating time frame, so that I can give my body a longer fat burning time. This still means eating the same amount of food, just in a shorter time period.
So basically have breakfast at 11am and dinner at 4pm, lunch in the middle and nothing outside those times.
The problem with this is that I don't really see how I can get this to fit into my lifestyle, and as upset as I am that the number on the scales doesn't say anything different, I do still believe in the routine I am doing for eating.
I just need to stick with it!
Today has been good, I've been in routine, but these days have become far and in between which I am changing next week.
I believe what stresses me out if have the cups of tea, because I can't be bothered going and making them some times. One - I need to get over this, it doesn't matter and Two - I just need to ensure the foods are at the correct times!

I believe what stresses me out if have the cups of tea, because I can't be bothered going and making them some times. One - I need to get over this, it doesn't matter and Two - I just need to ensure the foods are at the correct times!

This one's for me, it's what I need to hold onto
I'm struggling with not seeing the results right now. I hit a low point last night after a looked a photos I got my partner to take. I couldn't see a difference. I still have a little while before my next monthly photo is due. There will be a difference then!
Day 64
What my day should look like:

Right, so not a good day at all. But here's the thing, and I do ask you to hold me to this. I had two caramel slices left in my car. I had them from when I went to the supermarket yesterday. That was my unhealthy breakfast and it so felt like it.
Yesterday I felt sick and I felt sick again this morning. I put this down to crap food.
Now what you are holding me accountable too. I allowed myself these two slices here because I vow not to just go and buy another one because I want it! I vow now to stop in the supermarket and buy these before work. It's a waist of money and turns out, sickening.
Now, it's nearly 1.30 and all I've eaten today is these slices and a Charles Honest Fizz Orange and Mando can. This is a 100 calories drink, I also got it because it's low in sugar, thought it still has a considerably high amount in it. (What doesn't these days)
Even though I haven't eaten much today, I've still eaten 502 calories of crap. That's shocking.
Now the last point I need to make for myself is that my skin has broken out with pimples and that can only be because I have had one too many slices recently.
I started this blog, right back at the beginning with a post on caramel slices as my curse. Now wanting to eat them because they are shocking and so far I haven't done a good enough job of cutting them from my diet.
I was one a day, I might now be 3 or 4 a week. I want to be none a week on average.
So I will be none a week on average.
This is on me and I can do it!

I jumped on the scales today. I'm still on 93kgs as I was last week. But if I cut out sneaking in these caramel slices, I'll progress on sooner.

HEALTH
Health isn't just weight, or exercise
or food.
It's life.
Changes you make, there not just about one thing
there about life.
Don't change for others
for friends, or family.
Change for you.
Live your life to it's fullest.
Be worth more.
Workout, exercise, go to the gym,
walk, run, swim
But do it for you
Eat right, wholemeal,
fruit, veges, protein, fiber
but eat it for you.
Health isn't just weight.
A number is just a number.
It doesn't define you.
Don't stop.
If you falter, that's ok - keep going
a single, tiny, small improvement
progress, step, thought
is a movement in the right direction
Do it for you.
Health, that should define you.
Health is
light, movement, a better feeling
enjoyment, brightness
you
Keep going.
Don't do it for anyone. Do it for you
You are health.
Let yourself be health.
Health isn't just about your weight, or what exercise you do.
Health isn't just about how you look
Health isn't just about food
Health isn't about that number
Health isn't just about any number
Health is you - being the best you you know you can be
Be healthy.
Be you
Be HAPPY
I'm worth it
I get it. Fast food is easier. But let's put things into perspective. I do not live a 99cent life and I don't want to live a 99cent life. I'm worth so much more than that and I am going to treat me body like it's worth more than fast food.
Like it's worth more than 99cents.
Because I am worth more than that. Because I am worth it!

Right so I've had a banana smoothie this morning, along with my routine food which is great, but I am finding that I feel quite hungry today.
This means that I have had my breakfast of an egg sandwich and I had some ginger nut cookies and milk, I've had a protein bar and I've also have a banana smoothie from the local cafe to work, all before lunch.
The Banana Smoothie adds 300 calories to my day. 300 calories that I just don't need. I am also going to through out the rest of the ginger nut cookies we have at home so I stop having them as well as breakfast.

What a busy day at work.
Right, so I'm over 60 days into this now (just). This means I won't be far off my next photo, so that's a little exciting. It also means that my improvements (they are there) aren't as big as I want.
Now the one things I have worked out, that I am certain of is, my eating routine works. I just need to stick to it.
Today I have been right on track with my eating routine. For the rest of the week I will be on track with it and this will continue to the next week and then to the next.
Today and I 2 months away from getting married. I haven't tried on the dress for a bout a month now. I am going to fit it, in fact I believe that I can fit it now.
3.41pm
Having an incredibly lifestyle is important to me. I not only am thinking of my nutritional changes, but I want to get back on top of all areas of my lifestyle.
So, I get up in the morning, sit on my ass and watch TV. This is my first change.
Tomorrow morning I will get up, do a morning wake up, make myself breakfast and eat it at the table, get dressed for work in my room and then make lunch without sitting down and watching TV. This is possibly going to result in me having plenty of time which would be great.
Second, I am going to make sure I shower everyday, regardless of whether I feel like I don't need to because I did nothing the day before.
I will focus on brushing my teeth - MORNING AND NIGHT. (Let's admit, we are all lazy and might miss a time here and there) but no more for me.
In the weekends, I will walk the dog. I haven't walked her for far too long now, I will do this from now on and re introduce it as a habit to my life.
I don't think I have been drinking water as much as I was because I am now having a lot of tea. I will make sure that I also finish a bottle of water as well as my three cups.

Day 59 & 60
I'm into this thing by 60 days. I believe this is something for me to be proud of.
Over the weekend, as usual, my eating was ok. It was bad but could have been better.
Also over the weekend I watched a couple of documentaries with my partner on Sugar, Weight Loss, Fasting and found all of them to be very informative and inspirational.
I want my results to amaze others. That is what I will be striving for.

I made myself pancakes for breakfast. I made the mixture without sugar to cut down on what I was having, but I still had them with Maple Syrup and Butter. Ended up being 679 calories. Less than I was expecting. But this is a breakfast is a treat.
12.23pm
I had the most Delicious banana smoothie today. Made dairy free with Almond Milk and Greek Yogurt. This I had in place of my protein shake. It was brought for me by my boss. I will be asking for these instead of a hot chocolate like I have been.
Also, I didn't go to Countdown on the way to work today. GOOD.

Can you believe that this is the first time I've had a chance to write in here. A little bit ridiculous I think, but good to be nice and busy at work.
Now I haven't been so good today.
I needed to go to the supermarket before work to get a few supplies for the office kitchen so guess what I did. I also brought a few unnecessary things for me. This included a Lewis road caramel milk drink (absolutely delicious) and my current fav cookie caramel slice.
Not only have I had these, but I've also had a hot chocolate as it was brought for me by someone I work with.
Including breakfast and lunch which for both I had a home made pizza (at least this was healthy - I'll put the recipe below so you can see why) my total daily calories are 2036 already. Appalling.
Now why my pizza is healthy:
It's one spinach wrap as the base
A mixture of chicken mince, capsicum, diced tomatoes and mozzarella cheese as a topping, and as a final touch these are also mixed with fiber powder and crushed almonds.
All up this equals 500 calories and is very filling.
If I had not had all those other extras, and instead had the shake and bar I'd be at 1400 calories now, which is much better!
Final Note:

Weekly Weight and Measurements (8)
So I've been fairly slack in monitoring this area because of the shock I had last week about my weight matching where I was when I started this journey back at the beginning. But I thought I'd see where I was at this morning for some reason, so here goes
Weight: 93.4kg (2.6 below last week so that's something)
Bust: 99cm
Waist: 88cm
Hips: 113 cm
Thigh: 64cm
From what I can workout, the measurements aren't all that different. Take note I take these myself so they are not reliable.

Now a note to make is I am getting up every working day morning (mon to fri) and doing my morning wake up. It's not much, just stretching my back and doing a mini core work out, but at's something else.
