Yay exciting times! I got on the scale this morning and I had lost 400 grams! I was so excited for a couple of reasons. It doesn't sound like much, but it is to me :)
First, I weighed in on Friday, so I only had 5 days to lose weight this week. Also, I had quite a naughty weekend where I was way out of control, Friday, Saturday and Sunday were not great food days. However, Monday I attempted to change my attitude and eat clean. I am not doing this program to remain the same. So on Monday and Tuesday I have eaten clean, only healthy food and have been completely in control of my food choices. Yay! Originally I wasn't going to get on the scales this morning as I was scared that I had put on weight after the weekend. I thought I might give myself an extra two days to lose some weight. However, I thought that I should do this process correctly and stop delaying my weigh-ins. So I got on the scale this morning thinking that I may have put weight on and YaY I had lost 400 grams. My starting weight was 54.1kgs, and I am down to 51.8 kgs, 2.3kgs lost, 4.25% weight loss, and 1.8kgs to go. 400 grams is amazing to me and I haven't seen myself in the 51's for over a year and a half. I am pumped! Must maintain my confidence with my eating so I can get my treat meal at the end of the week :)
Food today going well thus far:
- porridge
- banana
- rice paper rolls
- apple
- 2 healthy oatmeal cookies (100 cals total) --> 700 cals so far leaving me lots for dinner :)
- rice paper rolls
- 3 fresh dates
- healthy hot choc
Probably slightly too much sweet stuff today but still in the calorie restrictions :)
Exercise: 30 mins on cross trainer (300 cal), 55 min spin calss (550 cals) - 850 cals today!! Woo hoo!! :)

thats awesome!!! well done!! so impressed by your weigh-in, eating and new, focussed attitude!! bring on Thursday!!
Thanks! Loving the new attitude, I am actually believing in myself regarding food. I have always believed in myself in relation to exercise, but food has been my problem. I probably ate a few too many sweet things today but was still within my calorie limits so it was okay. I am pumped about the program now! :)

Thanks!!
Yeah....no scales takes the numbers thing out of it, which is working out well for me so far...cause Im just concerned with getting a good calorie deficeit each day, which is what will work in the end.
