A weight loss journey
Day 26
Breakfast: Coco pops
Lunch: Mash potatoe and a chicken and mushroom pie, with a taste of chips and cod.
Dinner: A pot of chicken paster
Snacks: Junk!
Drinks: Water
Day 26 was a really bad day. But it got worst when I went to the cinema. I went to see “Woman in Black”, and I really didn’t want to eat the popcorn so I brought myself a pot of pasta and a bottle of water. Even though it’s a 12A, I never realised that it’s quite scary that I kept covering my eyes. I realised from yesterday that I find it easier to watch scary films while eating, maybe it’s comfort eating. And the only foods that were available to me were what members of my family were eating these included, popcorn, doritos and skittles.
I felt like Michael Jackson in the movie theatre in the Music Video Thriller, where everyone around him is scared to death and he just sits there munching on the popcorn while enjoying the movie. Next time I might have to bring more pasta or salad with me.
Day 27
Breakfast: Coco pops (Not a great diet)
Lunch: Tuna sandwich
Dinner: Chicken, rice and peas, sweetcorn and salad.
Snack: Chicken and sweetcorn sandwich, a hot cross bun ( I really fancied it, I think it’s because of yesterday).
Drinks: Water
Breakfast: Pancakes and beans.
I thought if I was going to have pancakes, the best time that I should have them would be early in the morning so that I could burn it off during the rest of the day.
Lunch: Salmon salad
Snacks: Left over pancakes
I had 3 pancakes in the morning, but my mid-afternoon, my sister and mother had some pancakes and I could not control myself. I ate 2 pancakes and they weren’t exactly thin.
Dinner: Hot and spicy chicken, salad and wholemeal pitta bread.
I had 2 hot and spicy chicken breasts and took my sisters other half, which I shouldn’t have, but they were sooo nice I couldn’t control myself.
Snacks: Orange
Drinks: Water
Clearly I still need to work on myself control, but I feel that I have cut down a great amount since I’ve started this diet again. I’m weighting myself again tomorrow, so I’m a bit nervous. But I’m hoping I’m around 13st 2lbs so that will mean I would’ve lost 5lbs (Hopefully).
My water diet so far is going very well, and I’m not often thinking about fruit juices.
Lunch: Caesar salad
Snacks: 2 boiled eggs and 2 slices of bread. 1 slice of bread and a yogurt
Dinner: A very small portion of chicken and rice (It was more the portion of a snack)
Snacks: Homemade chocolate cake and banana cake. which equalled the portion size of one slice of cake. ( I couldn’t help myself it was just the smell that was coming from the oven..yum.)
Drinks: Water
It’s not one of my better days, I don’t think that boiled eggs and toast is really a snack. I need to get my act together and work out my meal and snack sizes. And the banana cake and chocolate cake, I don’t really no what to say about that, but hopefully with time, self control will come naturally to me and it will be easy to refuse certain foods.
I weighted myself this morning and was very happy to find out that I’m now 13st 4lbs. (187.6lbs), so I haven’t gone up, which is great as my diet is terrible. I need to sort out my diet out.
Lunch: Chicken tikka baguette
Dinner: Spaghetti bolognaise
Snacks: 2 packets of crisps. A big fail!!!. And what was supposed to be a taste but ended up being half of my mothers chicken wings and chips. A terrible diet.
Drinks: Water, Ribena
I missed a day of blogging, and it was a bit of a flop day but it wasn’t an extreme fail.
Breakfast: Weetabix
Dinner: Rice and peas, chicken and vegetable
Snacks: Crisps! ( I feel terrible that I ate it but I was really hungry and that was the easiest thing to eat. I know this isn’t a great excuse as I have to learn self control.) Extra rice, carrots and potatoes.
Drinks: Actimel x3, orange juice, apple pie, 3 oranges
Tonight has been a bit hard. I find myself going into the kitchen and looking around for pieces of food that I can eat. The most that I ate was a few grapes but I really want to nibble on something. I need to get out of this habit of always chewing on something, because thinking about it, I’m not even hungry. It’s just a habit. I knew that it wasn’t going to be easy but it’ll be worth it in the end, when I can fit back into my old clothes and feel a lot better.
Last week Tuesday, I weighted myself at 12st 1lbs. I know my diet isn’t perfect but I have cut down a lot. It is hard but I’m really trying. I’m going to be weighing myself tomorrow, so I’m feeling a bit nervous.
I think I should’ve done a blog first on the amount I used to eat to really compare. It was a shocker. I would eat, 3 packets of crisps, 4 jam sandwiches, biscuits, and chocolate bars. And now easters coming, I used to love setting up egg hunts for the kids. I would buy so much eggs, and when I would set up the hunt and all the games, I would be eating them as I go. I think an easter hunt this year would be a BAD idea.
Breakfast: Weetabix
Lunch: Noodles
Dinner: Curried goat and rice and peas with salad. wow absolutely delicious.
Snacks: yogurts, magnum and baby crisps.
Drinks: Ribina, water
Another Michael Jackson song remade by Weird Al Yankovic, which again is really funny.

Your butt is wide, well mine is too
Just watch your mouth or I’ll sit on you
The word is out, better treat me right
‘Cause I’m the king of cellulite
Ham on, ham on, ham on whole wheat, all right
My zippers bust, my buckles break
I’m too much man for you to take
The pavement cracks when I fall down
I’ve got more chins than Chinatown
Well, I’ve never used a phone booth
And I’ve never seen my toes
When I’m goin’ to the movies
I take up seven rows
Because I’m fat, I’m fat, come on
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, come on you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
Don’t you call me pudgy, portly or stout
Just now tell me once again who’s fat
When I walk out to get my mail
It measures on the Richter scale
Down at the beach I’m a lucky man
I’m the only one who gets a tan
If I have one more pie a la mode
I’m gonna need my own zip code
When you’re only having seconds
I’m having twenty-thirds
When I go to get my shoes shined
I gotta take their word
Because I’m fat, I’m fat, sha mone
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
And my shadow weighs forty-two pounds
Lemme tell you once again who’s fat
If you see me comin’ your way
Better give me plenty space
If I tell you that I’m hungry
Then won’t you feed my face
Because I’m fat, I’m fat, sha mone
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it, you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
Woo woo woo, when I sit around the house
I really sit around the house
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, come on
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know, you know, you know, come on
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
And you know all by myself I’m a crowd
Lemme tell you once again
You know I’m huge, I’m fat, you know it
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, you know, hoo
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
You know I’m fat, I’m fat, you know it, you know
(Fat, fat, really really fat)
And the whole world knows I’m fat and I’m proud
Just tell me once again who’s fat
