So it's been a week since I decided to 'start over'...

It's been a week of determination, pro-activeness, testing my willpower and a dash of failure. I started last Sunday due to my 5 year old daughter's homework. She had to 'cook'/assist in making a healthy meal to demonstrate what they have been learning about balanced diet. I made salmon and brown rice with steam veg, I really enjoyed it and remembered what it was like to eat a healthy meal - I loved it.


Fast forward to Thursday/Friday and failure set in. I joined the gym on Thursday though so can I use that to cancel out Thursday's failure? No? Oh. 


Saturday's diet was absolutely atrocious! It all started with going to the chemist to get my prescription, as I left the chemist, I noticed a cake shop........................... I guess I don't really need to say anymore.

So I'm preparing for yet another 'diet'...

Everytime I say "this is it" and slip up but with a new found support group and just being sick of being 'fat' and 'unhappy' with it, I'm ready!

Tomorrow, I'll post pics, stats etc - Are you ready? I am! :D

Yesterday was horrible...

My dedication level last week was 'satisfactory' but yesterday it was straight binging. I didn't have anything to eat until 11:30 am and that was a Big mac meal; then I took the kids cinema and had toffee popcorn, and I came home about 3pm and had mash potatoes with sardine and cheese (mad yucky combination but it's really nice).

Around 8pm, I had another portion of mash and sardine and cheese, fast forward to midnight I couldn't sleep so I thought lemme come downstairs and do some laundry but I ended up not doing the laundry but watching CSI and eating the final portion of mash and sardines at about 1:00am. 

Terrible right?

This morning though, I'm back being good. For breakfast, I had steam veg and a 1/4 of chicken breast and I only used about 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil to make it. It sounds like dinner doesn't? But the important bit is that it was a healthy breakfast. High in fibre, low in carbs, good enough protein, low in fat but just the right amount 'good fat', low in sodium = all good.

I think I'm back on track now. :)
