    Just a quick update as promised... 5 days in

    I have just finished my 5th day of induction and i feel like i am just getting out of the yuck feelings that come with the first few days. I am really pleased with my diet this time around because i feel in complete control of what is going in (but not out for some reason lol) to my body.

    So far i have lost 6.2 pounds and i already feel like i am loosing that dreaded double chin. Whenever i see myself and think how fat i look, i just remind myself that every single day i am changing, and after every day i will never be the same. I will constantly be changing in to what i want to be and it cheers me up pretty quick.

    I have also been pondering over the summer and wondering whether i might just get close enough to goal in the next 2 months to buy some new shorts and T-shirts that are actually from designer labels in proper shops, rather than picking up whatever fits and is mildly comfortable.

    Things are finally looking up. Sorry about the gloomy post the other week, i guess i just hit rock bottom, and the only way to go was up!

    Bring on the summer!

    Hey everyone has those days. You hang onto the strong days and remind yourself of how far you have come whenever you can. Then when the bad days hit you can talk yourself into riding it out. I find that as long as I do what I should be doing and focus on the positives, rather than what I am "giving up" staying with the WOE is easier. And what are you really giving up? Those mildly comfortable clothes and some food. What are you gaining? Self confidence, health, wardrobe choices, sense of wellbeing. Pretty fair trade.

     It's not about the results. Its about the process.

      The good thing about rock bottom is that there is only way to go and that is up. Keep the momentum going and you will be in nice clothes before you know it.
      People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.
