Cohen's Lifestyle Bec's road to skinny!

Prefix for Cohen's Lifestyle
Week 3 start of week 4

Howdy,

Well today marks the beggining of week 4. Again I have only been losing about 100g but I havne't been good with the water over the weekend days. I will try very hard today to drink a lot. I'm now up to 4.5kg in three weeks, thats pretty good, I'm feeling much better about myself, even though this week has been so slow on the scales. AF being here doesnt help matters. I went and had a look in jaquie e yesterday, they have some beautiful work shirts in there, I can't wait to buy some new ones, hopefully in July I can. Today I'm going to go and get a new pair of boots, my current ones are starting to fall apart a bit.

yesterday I walked my friends dog, It was a 45 minute walk involving some of mt ainslie, and I didn't feel all worn out, which means I must be getting used to this diet - this is a relief as 4 months of a set of stairs knocking me around would have been tough.

Well thats 500ml drunk while I've been typing, chow for now.
 
feeling a bit down

Well this evening I feel a bit down. We are having a stupid work lunch meeting thing on friday at either an indian restaurant or a thai one. Thai is my favourite food and I am being pressured to go to the lunch. I don't want to go, as removing myself from temptation means I've lost 5.2k in 3.5 weeks! I just want them all to shut up about it and let me decline if I want to. They just don't care that I'll be breaking my diet. At this point I'll be eating my own lunch first and then sufferering through the stupid thing.

I don't think Id feel very well eating rice and noodles and rich sauces anyway.

food is my medicine...food is my medicine.

Am going to hide under my doona, that usually makes me feel better.
 
Well another yuck day at work today, I came home and ate 120g of tuna with half a tomato. I couldn't be bothered cooking so just scrounged around till I found some food that made up my allowance for the night. Yuck but I don't even care - which is actually a good sign, at least I didn't fold and buy takeaway!

tomorrow is the lunch, I'm going to go and eat a plain chicken salad with no dressing - that shouldn't mangle the diet too badly.
 
Shes a rebel

Well,

Its been a tough week, and the weekend was very hard, but I stayed on the straight and narrow. I've totally had enough of the food I've been eating so tonight I bought prawns, tuna steaks and some very lean gluten free sausages. I know its a bit naughty but I pulled out the meat and made it into meatballs and weighed it correctly - no fat came out although I could feela bit on my lips. I cooked up zuchinni and onion and put in some tomato and water - YUM! It was a nice change and I figure very tiny deviations will stop me having a massive blow out - the scales tomorrow will be a good indicator. I'll update tomorrow just incase anyone reads this and is interested.

ooh another thing, I now fit into size 10 jeans!
 
week 7

well I have stayed at 62 kilos for a while now but I've been naughty.

I have just realised I can have mozzarella and tomato on salada for lunch three times per week! I love that!

I am now going to go and re read my posts to re inspire myself

by the way, I bought those size 10 pants! at week 7 yeah.
 
End of Cohens Part I

Well I have made myself a bit of a decision.

I rang Cohens yesterday and tried to order my refeed as I was hungry and didn't want to to do this anymore! The lady was not keen at all. She has ordered it for me but we'll keep it at the clinic for now.

So, since I am half way and not liking it anymore I have decided to cut my journey in two. I have done 7 weeks and lost 8 kilos - I'm not overely happy about the hype of losing 7 kilos a month! But I look and feel great at the moment. I have trouble floating around the middle. As in, look at my ticker, I'm in no mans land. So yesterday was the end of part one for me. I had chinese for dinner and sit here eating date delicious oats for the morning. Lunch is going to be a healthy sandwich and dinner is at a party. I plan on going for a walk this afternoon - yes exercise.

I can hear some of you screaming noooo what is she doing!!!

I'm going to restart my journey tomorrow morning. I'm going to create a new ticker so that I am starting from 0 and aiming to lose 8.5 kilos. I've allowed 8.5 because I'm bound to put on a bit of weight today.

That way when I get to half way and want to stop this time, I will actually be very near my goal and able to order my refeed.

Now things I have learnt:

chinese does not actually taste as good as I remember, and prawn crackers are just vessels to soak up oil. Date oats are nice but a bit sweet.

ok, goodbye old ticker, hello new ticker!
