Day 2

Well it is now day two of the bodytrim diet and I am going well, no slip ups yet, but I must say I am over protien and would like something else with my meals. Meat is getting very boring. Only one more day of carb detox though so the end is near.

I am also having troubles with eating 6 meals a day especially protien meals. You can only eat 100g for breaky, lunch and tea and 50g for the three snacks and at first I thought is that all. That is plenty, I better see results at the end of this three days. Some people report loosing up to 3kg after the detox , I would love if that happened, it would really kick my motivation.

On the bodytrim wedsite I found a yummy recepe that you can have as a protien only snack and it is yummy. It will be my sugar fix without sugar LOL.

500g of cottage cheese (u can use recotter to)
1 cup boiling water
lite/sugar free jelly crystals any flavor
1T lemon juice (optional)

Boil water and mix with jelly crystals, add cottage cheese and lemon juice, beat with a handmiver, put into paddy cake tins etc. and put in fridge for up to 2 hours. YUM!

The day!!

Well todays the day it all starts. I havn't had any trouble so far but really its only been 7 hours LOL. The eating so many times a day is what is going to throw me, but I will get use to it.

Its arrived!!

Well it has arrived!! My "bodytrim the weight loss secret" came in the mail today. I have had a quick look at it and I am going to be eating alot of protein ALOT but I think no I know I can do it. I will be starting as of Monday, I decided that I should start it on a new week.

New house, new area to exercise

We are currently in the process of buying a new home. The house is in such a great area to go walking. I am so excited about that, I was always quiet fit and now I do almost nothing (besides chase a toddler around). It will be great to take Zack for walks morning and night bc he loves to get out and Jetta (my Labrador dog) bc it isn't fair that he doesn't get out as much as he should, but soon he will :-).

My mother has been going to these exercise classes and asked me if I wanted to go with her. I declined, why?? well bc I know she will be fitter then me, she walks every day and is in really good nick. So once I have gained some fitness I would love to go with her I use to love the step classes I use to do in Uni they were so much fun. But I am ashamed to say I don't want to be outshone by my mother, she laughs at me when I tell her this.

Sleeping to loose weight

I was watching something the other day that said that lack of sleep or less then 8 hours sleep could be the cause of weight gain. Hmmmm if that is true I have no hope in loosing this weight, well not until Zack decides to sleep anyway.

At the moment I am trying the be tuff approach to Zack to try get him to sleep I will no longer bf him to sleep or give it to him when he wakes up. The getting him to sleep with out a bf is working really well it doesn't take to long at all. When he wakes thats where the problem is. The first night of get tuff it took 1 hour to get him back to bed. The second night he SLEPT THROUGH (for the third time ever in his life) and then last night I was up with him for 1.5 hours. I was getting so frustrated he would be fast asleep and as soon as I put him down he would wake. He did this 5 times. I ended up putting him in bed with us (still no bf though) and not today my back is killing me.

We went to the park today with my mum, Bib, Ella and Gemma, we had a great time. Zack loves to run around with the girls. He fell asleep before we even made it home. Hopefully if we have a busy day we will have another night of sleeping through.

Emotions

This is going to be a big problem with me when I start this diet. When I feel lonely, sad, annoyed, cranky etc etc. I want to eat and of course the things I want to eat are not the best choices.

Today I am p!ssed off with hubby and I want strawberry cream lollies so badly, I haven't caved in and went to get some, instead I am going to be strong and wait till he gets home for lunch an let him have it.

AARRRGGGGHHHH why are men so selfish??? I find it funny how if they want to do something or buy something its ok to go off somewhere and buy it, but as soon as I want to take the trip to go buy our son some cloths that fit him for winter (like now bc it has been cold here) no its not ok. He says its just an excuse to get out of the house. So what if it is, Zack still needs cloths to wear. As soon as I ask him why he went out with his brother on the weekend and left me at home he said bc he wanted to get out of the house. Ding ding ding!!! Hence its ok if he wants to. aaarrrggghhh. OK vent over!

Time to be stong

As the end of the year grows near and my aching for another child I need to do this and I need to do this now. I am running out of time and quickly. I have told myself I will not fall pregnant until I loose some weight as if I do have blood pressure problems again it will not be fair on Zack for me to have to spend nights in hospital.

I know that loosing weight doesn't mean that I won't have blood pressure problem this time round but surely it will help. Zack, any future children and my husband are my life and I need to be fit and healthy for them. I know how hard it was for James to have to work all day then travel the hour to the hospital to visit me last time.

Loosing weight is also something I need to do for myself, I find these days that I am not near as confident as I use to be and my weight is the reason for that. I want to feel nice again and look nice in cloths.

So my goal is to loose 20kg, 10kg to begin with before I fall pregnant. If I loose more then the 10kg beforehand fantastic. I need to have and keep the will power. Food is something I love and of course the foods I love most are all the wrong things.

So mum has ordered me trim fast and as soon as it gets here I will be going on the diet. I feel blessed to have my mother on hand to help me. She was even so nice to buy this program for me which I think could be a help as that will always be in the back of my head.
