I want to graduate...am in my final year now, secondly I would like to keep up my weight loss going this coming year and lastly I just want to be happy. 

What are your 2011 hopes if you have any?

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!


Wow....it is soooo hard to eat good healthy food at home when everyone around you is indulging in the fattiest foods ever. I even went to the salon to get my eyebrows done and they were giving out all kinds of chocolate.....and I took them lol. Every visitor that comes to my house brings an Xmas card and the complementary box of celebrations or quality streets. I mean what's a girl to do? To make matters worse, it has been snowing here, so my free ground is not so free any more. I have had to look for alternative exercise like skipping rope and dance DVDs. I hate those things but I have had to do them if I am going to stay on my target. 

I have discovered many of the old habits like eating late, I can't do it any-more. I ate a croissant about 12 midnight.I could not sleep for about 3hours after that because my stomach just hurt me like crazy. I can't eat meat everyday because my stomach gets upset as well.

 I think my mind has just settled for the fact that I am going to gain a few pounds over this festive season....I just want to enjoy myself. I know what I need to do to lose weight, so it should not be a problem hitting the gym and eating good after Christmas. I can't show you my weight tracker because I do not have my scale with me at the moment. The tracker will be back after new years!

Merry Christmas everyone!

PS: I got my first comment last week...I smiled so hard the whole day! Its good to know I am not just talking to myself

20 lbs and counting!






I have had the busiest week ever. I had 5 assignments deadlines this past week alone. Boy am I glad it's over...hopefully I can get the grade. You know it's true what they say about reading being a good weight-loss tool. I have not been to the gym once this week because I have been so busy and yet I have still lost some weight. I am so loving loosing weight. My clothes are starting to fit differently now...they are becoming loose and my friends keep telling me I have lost weight! I love love love the compliments and yet when people tell me I feel very shy about it. Anyway because I am on this journey I have started to read books about weight-loss. My latest instalment is the book called Skinny Bitch. This book is so in your face and it makes you feel guilty about eating certain foods. I don't like the whole vegan thing...I couldn't just stop eating meat. 


Christmas is almost here and I going home to see the family....So excited however very worried about how I am going to manage eating healthier foods and exercising. I have made sure to pack my running shoes though. Nothing can stop me from running...the ground is free. 


I am getting closer to my dream!!

Snow and Toothaches!




It has been snowing quite heavily here so I have not been to the gym at all this week , roads are icy as hell and there is no bus services running.The amazing thing is I have managed to lose weight. Very happy about that, but I know I am going to have to start hitting the gym again soon. Anyway some other unrelated news, I got my tooth taken out today, actually the dentists said not to exercise for a couple of days so that my blood clot stays intact and I heal faster. That's a bummer. I literally forgot until I started to type. Still happy though that I have reached the 70s....I feel like I am travelling through time hehe. 


Anyway happy weight loss
