Diet Diary Of A Redhead


mylolita

Recommended Posts

I wanted to start a fresh journal up separate to my personal diary to keep a track on healthy eating, weight loss and exercise for the New Year.

 

This diary may be slightly controversial as technically, I'm not over weight at all, but I do like to be a certain weight and that weight at the moment is not it!

 

Current stats:

 

Height: 5'5''

Weight: 7 stone 12lbs or 110lbs

 

Ideal weight: 7 stone 2lbs or 98 to 100lbs.

 

Let's do this!

So today I broke into my new weight band and can say I am no longer 8 stone! Just seeing that number 7 on the scale, even though I'm at the top end of it, made me so happy.

 

I know my current obsession with shedding a few pounds for a really sleek and slim look is not just 'New Year, New Me'. I'm feeling a lot of stress and unhappiness in my new job and one way I have always made myself feel better in the past is to control my weight. When I feel out of control in other areas of my life, if I am watching what I eat, it gives me a sense of structure that I feel I lack in the chaos of my mind!

 

Over Christmas I must of put on about 3lbs which I noticed when wearing dresses over the party season. The fat tends to want to stick to my arms for some annoying reason. I want sleek, slender arms! Oh, and slimmer thighs. My thighs are looking slimmer already which is a massive plus for me.

 

Since it's the weekend, I haven't eaten like a saint (last night me, my husband and friends got pizza). The old me would of demolished 3/4 of a large pizza if not all of it, and last night I only ate two slices, so there's some progress there at least.

 

The plan is for me and D to get down to the gym tonight and do some lengths in the pool. My husband hates me dieting, but I don't want to get crazy skinny, so hopefully he will understand.

 

I think Jennifer Aniston once said she felt most comfortable at 100lbs and no one jumped down her throat. I hope D realises I'm not trying to take this too far like in the past. I just want to feel slinky again.

7 stone 11lbs.

 

That was three days ago. Absolutely splurged on Sunday when D suggested ordering a pizza. UGGHHHH! Felt so good thought and I was happy to eat it. Back on the health track for my working week. I want to loose another 1 - 2lbs this week. I've got gym and a pole dancing lesson sorted to keep me active.

Another pizza lol? Do you enjoy cooking? You can find recipes for a healthier, low-carb pizza, and who knows your husband may even enjoy it.

 

You should post everything you have each day. I'll have a look. You'll be suprised how hard it is to stay in balance when you're counting.

 

Also, remember 'skinny' doesn't equate to being 'healthy.'

How are pole dancing lessons? I've always been extremely interested in taking classes! Also, pizza is my weakness, too We are different heights, but we have a close goal weight. I'm 5'0 and I'm around 113 lbs, but I would like to be less than 105 lbs. Joining the gym next week!

Hey Leila!

 

I think we can do this haha! You're so nice and petite!

 

The pole dancing lesson was great! Felt a bit rusty and the teacher just blasted through about 8 moves which was too fast paced for me to really 'get' a trick! So fun though! I think if you go with a girlfriend it's the best. At the moment I'm by myself but the other girls in the group are really canny.

 

Hows the gym going? I hardly ever go to mine and have vowed to start full time in February. Gulp.
