I'm back, but not completly!!!

Ok so I haven't posted for quite some time now.
I've been feeling rubbish, since I started concentrating on studying for my graded unit, my weight loss program started to go downhill. I haven't exercised for the last 2 months, the diet, well, although I'm not eating the same that I was before I started the program, I am eating more again, and already ate some of the not so good stuff. I've been feeling really guilty now. I am happy that my exam went well, I got an A, but am starting to kind of hating this person...
I don't understand how I could do this to myself. It was so hard, so much sacrifice and now I stopped it? What's going on with me? I'm very lucky that I didn't put on more weight but I feel like I've put on all I've lost before and I probably will if I don't do anything pretty soon... It's probably the guilt.
I've started my holidays now and I really do hope that I find the strength to restart the diet and the exercise. It's like I need someone looking after me, forcing me to exercise and shouting at me whenever I overeat...
That's what I need!!!

Weight loss update

So today another weight and measurement day. I have now lost 25.4 lbs. When I started, I expected to lose more each week but the truth is that I haven't exercised much for the last few weeks. My diet is still going ok, yesterday I had my first "sweet" since I've started. It felt really good to reward myself with a treat. I am really getting used to not eating junk, to eat much smaller portions and not skipping breakfast. These are the inches I have lost till now:
         
                     Bust: 1.53"                        
                    Waist: 1.13"                          
                    Hips: 2.37"
                    Tights: 1.13"
                    Calves: 0.78"

      

Quick update

So today was weighting day again. I've only lost 2.2 lbs these two weeks but I am not surprised. As I said the other day, I haven't exercised so I was expecting these results.
I've been finding it really hard. Have loads and loads of stuff to study, work to do, kids to look after, house to clean ... god I feel tired already :). It's said that if you really want, you allways find time to exercise. It is probably true but honestly, when you have so many important things to do, things which can't wait a day or two, can you really give priority to exercising? If I have 30 minutes free during an entire day, I just don't feel like spending them exercising. I wish days were longer!...

Diet going well but ... exercise?!

Ok, so my diet is still going very well. I'm very pleased that I still resist chocolate and cakes (haven't had any for two months)or the carbs after 4pm but in the past two weeks I haven't exercised at all! I know it's shocking, I mean, I do all the stuff such as walking to college, clean the house, ironing, etc, but that's far from enough.
When I increased the duration and resistance of my exercises, It was hard but it made me feel a lot better. It was a big mistake to have stopped. I don't know why I did... but I've promised myself that tomorrow I will start the exercises again, no excuses. This time I will increase the frequency as well so I will have to exercise at least five times a week. I'm still losing weight because I'm dieting but I feel the need to burn more calories and I definitely need more energy.

I won't do it again

So yesterday I wasn't feeling very well. For the past 10 days I have been quite busy setting up this blog, studying for my assessments and looking after the house and the kids, so i haven't exercised at all and yesterday and before yesterday i only had three meals all day. Because those main meals were low calorie and I didn't exercise I was feeling really tired, feeling guilty for not following with my plans...I was feeling rubbish really. But today when I woke up I decided that it was the first and last time that I would do it. It's unbelievable the effect that physical activity has on your body and mind, even if is just 15 minutes a day, I felt a big difference. Also not eating enough, I started having cravings towards the end of the day...I'm glad I've managed to resist them and control myself. 
Today I am back on track, had my cereals and fruit at breakfast and fruit at the morning snack. At lunch I had 150grs of Quorn meatballs (Quorn stuff is great for dieting, very high in protein and very low in calories), 100grs of spaghetti and a huge portion of lettuce and cucumber salad. Am feeling a lot better now. 
Today I am going to start the exercises shown on the fitness page. I will keep you up to date with the progress.
