Day 1

Sun, 08 Apr 2012 23:23:00 -0400

Chilling out at work now - everyone’s in a meeting so it’s ridiculously quiet. It’s been relatively easy so far, as I’ve been asleep for the majority of my diet day. For breakfast, I had orange juice, and I’m currently sipping on my 1st diet coke of the day. An hour and a bit til gym time, which I’m not really very excited about to be honest. I plan on hogging the elliptical machine for a good 45 minutes. The last time I used it (last Wednesday), I ran about 6.7km in 45 minutes - for the majority of the time I was at 11kph, but slowed down to about 7 or 8kph after half an hour. I’ll see how it goes today!

I always find that in order to stave off the inevitable boredom that comes from being on a stationary object with rote movements for so long, I have to find something to focus my mind on (and make time past faster!), so I have started loading tv shows and movies on my phone in order to have something to watch during my gym time.

Also, just booked some Pilates lessons for the next three Saturdays - I really do wonder if Pilates helps, but I guess there’s no harm in trying!

After lunch: I had some boiled green beans and grilled veal for lunch, and did 35 minutes on the elliptical on reverse, burning about 280 calories. Not my best, but hopefully my stamina and focus will build up over the next couple of weeks!

Got home around 430 and took a nap and a bath. For dinner I had some baguette and seafood-tomato soup, really delicious.

The Beginning

Sun, 08 Apr 2012 11:22:12 -0400

Okay, so i just had my last big blowout meal at my friend’s house for her brother’s birthday. It was… well, it was a feast worthy of a thousand feasts. But tomorrow is the first day (hopefully the start of an unbroken chain of days) of my diet. I really hope that keeping a track of my eating habits and exercise habits will set me on the right track for eating. My plan is to eat really healthily during the week, as I’ll be at work and able to abstain from the usual snacking and restaurant food binges that categorize my weekends and time spent at home.

Food: No sugar, and no anything high GI; no snacking except for saltines once a day or fruit; a lot of vegetables and low fat protein.

Exercise: Elliptical for 45 minutes every weekday, Pilates twice a week, stretching daily. Walking as much as possible on the weekends, for example walking to lunch or friends’ houses.

It’ll be really hard to break my “must eat everything” mentality that’s plagued me for years. Once I see a buffet table or communal meals - that’s it, I’m gone. I won’t put down how much I weigh or anything, but I’m a hefty size 6/8 US and hoping to go down to a 2/4. I’m a classic hourglass, but I’ve been losing the inward curve of my waist and moving towards a pear/square type. I definitely have a problem area - my legs and butt, so i’ll try to work on those!
