The life of lifestyle change
It seems to me the moment I manage to get one part of my life under control the minute something else falls apart.

Going good and bad.
The last two days I have been REALLY hungry at dinner time. Last night I had crackers and mayonaise, the really bad kind. And thought I had planned cauliflower soup for dinner I also had 1 and a half rissoles. And the fat that came off them!!
Still each day is a new day today has been porridge (1/4 cup of oats, 1 cup of h2o and a pinch of salt) 1/2 tbsp of sugar and 1/2 cup of rev milk. cup of coffee with skinny milk and 1/2 a tsp of sugar. Morning tea a banana and a pear. Another cup of coffee. And lunch 420 g stir fry, 105g chicken, ginger, beans, capsicum, slivered almonds, garlic, mushrooms, carrot, chicken stock cube, h2o.
Am considering a snack oh obsession thou art foul.

A new beginning like a new year's resolution
Ok, so I went to the doctor's on Friday, needed a refill for my perscriptions and wanted to ask about weight related options including Duromine and other drugs others have been telling me they take.
She brought up the idea of lap band surgery. Its sad but for my height and weight my BMI makes me obese, but as it turns out no where near meeting the criteria for the surgery. The only thing which was a little reassuring is my doctor is in her own words 20kg overweight. This actually made it sound less like being told off.
She has referred me to a dietition and thinks I should consider a 1200 calorie a day diet.
So today I am up to 853.5 calories and it is 3.40pm. 3 corn pancakes and 1.5 slices of bacon, 1 tbs mayonaise, coffee with .5 tsp sugar skim milk, 1 med appl, 1 medium banana, cauliflower soup, 1 tbs bread crumbs, 2 x coffee with .5 sugar and skim milk.
Leaves me 346.5 calories for dinner, haveing ginger chicken with vegies, and almonds. May actually have 1250 today. But a start is a start. Will it be able to last till tomorrow?

Slack Slack Slack
They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions and I often think that is the case.
I mean to blog regularly but then I get into a funk and forget. But the good news is I have been achieving some successes lately. Going to bed between 10:30 - 11pm each night, all housework done before bed, clothes and lunch prepared everyday and breakfast eaten before I leave the house. And my exercise regime is now 4 out of 7. Menu preparation a week at a time, and budgeting improvements. The bad news is the food I have been consuming. And my propensity to throw it up.
It is not full blown bingeing but there has been some guilt ridden bulimic tendencies reoccurring which is not good news. Always in the evening and despite my intake of water. A trip to the doctor might be in order.
So today I had porridge for breakfast and a banana. 3 light Salada's (all four squares) for break, risotto for lunch, 4 sweet biscuits and an apple in the afternoon, my plan is lasagna for dinner. And 3 cups of coffee and 3 glasses of water.
