Bee's diary

Thanks Korrie i'm going to look into it. It depends on how it works if i can take it or not. I read on the back of the bottle at the supermarket that it helps with the breakdown of carbs. Not sure if thats what i need cause i have a problem with insulin resistence :confused: Going to go to the "proper" health food shop at the weekend and ask them about it.

Had my eys tested and decided to get contacts for the first time in ages!! I made myslef late putting them in this morning so i didn't have time to make some lunch. :rolleyes: Possibly a good thing though cause i'm going out for Dinner AGAIN tonight chinese food probably. I suppose veg stirfry won't be too bad... just have to limit my noodle intake.
 
Dinner last night was a complete disaster. We went to a asian place and i ordered stirfry veggies and noodles, but they covered in fat. I didn't eat much of them but probably enough to take in my fat serves for the next few days. :( I wouldn't have minded so much if i'd actually enjoyed them but they weren't even that nice!! Makes me fee ripped off, if you get what i mean. Apart from the disater of a stir fry i had 2 spring rolls. Then we went for coffee, but the didn't have soy or low fat milk :rolleyes: Felt really bad about things so i didn't have a desert, so i had to watch people muching calorific yummyness instead. AHHHHH!!

Don't know if it has anything to do with the food but i feel sick this morning. Maybe the fat upset my stomach??

Made it to work, but if i wasn't a temp and scared of loosing my job i'd never have come in!! Going to try and stay as long as possible. *crosses fingers* cause if i'm not here i don't get paid!!

Breakfast:
Cereal and Yogurt (1 carb, 1 Protien)
 
Apple don't beat yourself up over the stirfry. You're doing great. I would agree with you that your stomach is probably upset from the fat. After not eating greasy foods for a little over a month I had coconut shrimp tonight and a couple of hours later my tummy wasn't feeling too well. Good thing my appetite is shrinking it came with 6 shrimp and I usually eat all of them I only had 2 I couldn't imagine how bad it would be bothering me if I had eaten all of them.
 
Think you are probably right about the fatty food being the problem, although i think i may have had a bit of a cold too.

Left work early, didn't eat much for the rest of Friday, mainly because i was asleep for most of it.

Friday:
Yogurt (1 protien)
toast with nuttella (1 carb, 1 fat)
tea x lots :p

Felt a little better on Saturday but still not 100%. Meals all over the place but from what i can remember

saturday:
nuts (1 fat)
toast with soy marge and Jam (1 1/2 carb, 1 fat)
chicken sandwhich (1 carb, 1 protien)
Low fat/sugar ice cream (erm...just bad i think!!)
 
WEIGH IN DAY

Was a bit worried about weighing in today, not that much exercise last week and fell "off the wagon" a few times. But it was good!! Much better than i had hoped (i was hoping to be the same).

69.8kg :eek:

Sooo much better than i was expecting i lost 0.8kg (1.8lbs) woo hoo!! Yeah baby! This is the lightest I have been for at least a year!!

If i loose the same next week i get my first "prize" from Mr Apple. originally this was going to be a dress. But we were out shopping today and saw the new Game Boy DS. (I love my computer games) I can trade in my SP and get it for $99 AUD. Mr Apple put a $10 deposit to pre-order one (they come out here on feb 24th) and said i can have it when i make my first 5kg target!! So i have a week and a bit to make it!! *crosses fingers* I love my computer games!!!

Also bought a skipping rope, an hour class is just a bit much for me at the moment so I'm hoping i can build myself up with this first. I even got myself one with weighted handles to give my arms a work out too!! I'm going to aim to do 6 minutes at least 3 times in the week.
 
First of all congrats on the loss this week its a wonderful achievement . A game sounds like an excellent idea. What a wonderful incentive. I was saying at ww that I was going to start skipping and the look of horror on there faces was hilarious, I then got a 5 min lecture on the proper bras to wear lol. They said that skipping was a wonderful exercise so good luck with your goals this week.
 
Thanks Guys :D

Rosered, thanks for the support. Didn't manage my target today. Man it's hard work. I might have to build it up over a few days. Plus it's quite hot here today which won't have helped. I started skipping today and had to go back in to change into my sports bra!! :p Managed to do 3 minutes.

breakfast:
1/2 cup low GI cereal and yogurt (1/2 carb, 1 protien)

Hmm can't decide what to make for dinner this evening. Mr Apple is all stressed out from work so i want to make him something nice.

So he was happy with his high carb, red meat, cheese meal.. and i didn't feel too bad about the pizza. I ended up taking most of the cheese off with the zuchini!! Not a fan of Zuchini...bleugh.
