Okay so day one of the grand scheme went sort of to plan, sort of not to plan.

Breakfast: Optifast shake

Lunch: Optifast shake

Afternoon snack: 1/4 cup of dried incaberries

Dinner: lettuce, tomato and onion salad with adzuki bean patties (the patties were all 100% natural)

Water: 1.5L

No exercise.

See? It’s like half good but then the water and exercise isn’t good. Plus I didn’t actually want to have a meal for dinner but I ran out of optifast shakes so I had the salad.

I didn’t withdraw from uni or buy new optifast shakes today either, I didn’t even leave the house (I spent the whole day pretending to be a singer). But I think I am justified in this laziness because I have the red version of niagra falls coming out of my minky area at the moment. I am so done with being a woman. I don’t know how you regular gals cope with doing this every single month!

I’m about to jump in the shower now, and then tomorrow I’m going to head to the shops for my shakes and then into uni to withdraw. I think I’m supposed to go to the drive-in cinema tomorrow night with some friends so I hope that my uterus takes a chill pill.

Tomorrow’s goals are the same as todays carried over. Going to get it done this time :)

I hope you’ve have a wonderful and successful day.

2/4/13

I binged over easter, and I binged hard!

From about Thursday to Monday I was chowing down on McDonald’s and chips and chocolate. I don’t know what triggered it. I was feeling accomplished Thursday evening because I had achieved so much during the week (1 exam, 1 presentation and 1 uni application). So that night I just decided to treat myself with McDonald’s for dinner. And it was all downhill from there until Monday!

So now I’m going back to a no-thought-required method, which for me is meal replacement shakes (Optifast). I’m replacing all 3 meals with a shake and have a tiny light meal (mostly vegetables) in the evening. Today I had a tonne of turkey which was alright and also 25g of jellybeans which wasn’t good, but they were just a once off so I’m not going to cry about it.

I know the meal replacements aren’t at all healthy because they’re just a concoction of chemicals, but they have the nutrients needed for weightloss (albeit synthetic) and a pretty good success rate so I’ll just do this for a while until I’ve lost a substantial amount of weight, then I’ll wean off into clean, vegetarian (maybe vegan) food.

I hope you had a lovely easter and truly enjoyed yourself :)

Sending metta (loving kindness),
