Tricky day

Today was a trickey one for me. My team leader is moving states (hi Jess if your reading!) so the work "family" decided on KFC for lunch - i declined but it smelled pretty good! Then there was cake so i did have a very small slice

then checked the calories and at 150 cal's i really should've said no, then farewell drinks - I stuck to 2 vodka, soda and limes (my go to low calorie drink) then i seriously considered ordering dinner from the german cafe we were at though i know it would've been packed full of calories so decided on a tray of mini tuna sushi instead only 170 cal's. I did have a break from the gym however I'm going to salsa tonight so still getting in a bit of exercise and giving the legs a bit of a break. So all in all I'd say today was a success, i dropped my calories to 1200 and still have 170 that need to be eaten before the days out! 

Healthy dinners

This was delish! Baked cornflake and cheese crumbed snitzel with balsamic tomato salad (we were having vegies with it but there was a slight incident with them burning whilst I was working) 

I still have to eat 200 cals to make it to my minimum, not so sure what to have

the weekend and zacs b'day

Well it's the weekend again and i'm doing horribly, i am just so bored on the weekens so i automatically want to eat, i think i did okay at church but then my grandparents came down for avo tea and there was cammembert cheese and all kinds of yummy things and i ate them... it's my sons birthday tomorrow and we are having the family over for cake and pizza and there will be more cake and pizza and junk food on saturday at his party, maybee i could just not eat it or not as much, easier said than done in my world! lol but hey thats life, i will lose this weight, it will come of, but it will take a long time and you have to be able to let go a bit on special occasions don't you? well thats my story anyway.

hard day

Am really struggeling today, it's a Saturday and am home with just me and Zac i was ok till lunch but since then i just wanna eat! and not just eat i wanna stuff the food in, it sux i know im not hungry and am telling myself that but my stomach and my head just don't seem to be connecting today i think i'm really bored but so far have managed to not take a trip to the shops for junk food, all the fruit at home is gone so i am a bit lost as to what to eat, just had couple pcs of chocolate, am really trying to stay away from the shops, however i am not going to beat myself up over it i will just keep trying to do better.

YAY, I DID IT... I had the salad and a diet coke all the others had chips but i was quite satisfied without had a great night and even did a little dancing at the concert looking foward (kinda) to what tomorrow brings, i have tried so hard this week if i don't lose anything i think i'll be mighty dissapointed!

take out

Thanks everyone for your encouragement!!! I'm going to a concert tonight and we are having maccas on the way but i have done my research and sourced out what has the least calories and sat fat content so i'm hoping this will work for me and i'll stick to the options i have made wich don't include chips. I'm thinking seared chicken burger with med diet coke... will c how i go, wish me luck.

A better choice at church

I feel i did really well today especially at church compared to my normal 'feast' i chose not to eat anything that was fried and only had a small amount of the rest and a cup and a half of my chicken soup wich was very low fat. After i finished my plate i walked back up to the table and then walked away thinking "no i don't really need it" and i didn't have it, i didn't even feel like i was missing out on something wich felt great! Then at dessert i just had 1 and a incy wincy muffin (it could hardly be counted it was so small lol) and some rockmelon... so yes, very proud today!

OH NO, PIZZA!

okay so today was really hot so had the family over for a swim, someone bought cheezels and banana lollies i did have a couple butdidn't go overboard so i was okay with that. The option of having pizza was bought up and i turned it down saying i would love it but am trying to lose weight so i organized to have cold meats and salad, i had pre made it before everyone came over so it was all ready, however talk of pizza was still going round and the others really wanted it so i gave in but orderd thin crust vegetarian for me, i ended up having 3 pieces with some salad, so that was okay i guess. I try to eat something light the night before weigh in, so now i'm pretty worried lol... but hey i made better choices by ordering the thin crust, vegetarian and better choices is what i wanted, i usually would have had thick crust peperoni, very proud of my self! will see how i go tomorrow.
