I've been really bad about my eating habits gradually sliding back to all the wrong food even crisps. Yesterday I've looked at my self and thought - enough is enough - what am I going to look like when Summer comes and there isn't any chance to hide any fat parts? So, I'm going to get back to normal. I went to the shop and bought Lentil and bean shoots which I'm snacking on with an apple and a plum. I'm going to make soup for lunch. I heard beetroot is good for weight loss and so is cabbage so both together with a carrot and broccoli are going in and I'm set for a start of a new life! How many times did I try to loose weight? Too many, in most cases achieved brilliant results driving mum crazy when I was in my teens. Well, the point is - its really hard to keep the weight off because I get fed up with healthy food and reach for the treats like a monkey (oh, poor monkeys, I Shouldn't have said that, okay, not a monkey, just like me myself in my silly to go happy way - love that ice cream! Oh, I shouldn't have said that eitherr. Temptations! No, must be strong!) So , anyone would like to join me and support me as my will power leaves me quickly when I'm trying to loose weight?

Just wanted to say that I'd like to try again and make it better this time. I've decided to find something sensible I can do all the time rather then start and give up. So I'm starting my day with warm water followed a bit later by fruit/veg/pure yogurt with fruit/porridge with fruit and honey. Salad and soup, all home made, for lunch and normal dinner. Snacks - nuts, fruit and veg. Coffee no more than 2 cups a day, with honey. Cut down on sugar as much as I possibly can. Light exercise.
On very rare occasions-ice-cream,chocolate, biscuits, small slice of a cake.
How are all of you doing?
