ProPoints CarlyLanky140's Food Diary (28/155lb)

Hi All

Well I have had an amazing week... I absolutely loved being in school! I have 3 more days this week too :D I kno this is what I want to do! I just need to carry on with my job for one more year to save as many pennies at possible and also check I am definitely doing the right thing!

I struggled to adjust to being finished at 3.30pm and found myself snacking... but I know that when I am doing the job there will be work to do till at least 5/6 so that wont be a problem...

I also know that I really need to and want to work on healthy eating and veg/ fruit.... When I was in Preston last week my friend's mum asked "how are u doing this diet with no fruit or veg?" - I hate comments like that... I want to set a good example to kids - in school and my own (if I am that lucky!) - I just don't kno what to do anymore... It makes me feel sick and panic.... Hypnosis didn't work... I am going to have that as my main resolution in 2012.... I am going to try one thing at a time for a whole week or two.... I am going to ask for a smoothie maker/ blender for christmas (remind me of that nearer time lol) - anyone have any suggestions of a make/ particular machine?

My 2011 resolutions were to lose weight - I have started my journey and I will finish it in 2012 - I want to be a skinny teacher! One of the kids said "Miss.. How did you get that big?" - I was heartbroken and had to hold back tears.. but he had a point - I need to set an example! I WILL DO THIS BY September 2012 when I start my course (and will get to 12/14 by my friend's wedding in August!)

I was also going to save money - I have paid off a fair bit of debt and will hopeful start saving in January.... I hoped to get house/ car/ new york holiday - well these things will be on hold because of the change of career path.. but it will be worth it... I will get there one day...

I was going to stop taking my anti-depressants - I did this all by myself - I feel stronger! I can do anything!

I was going to be a fully qualified solicitor/ HCA/ duty sol - I did all this - who knew it wouldn't be right for me?!

I was going to go to the gym more - I do this on and off - I can do it - me and my friend will keep it up this time!

I was going to improve my beauty regime etc - something else I do on and off lol...

Well I think I have rambled enough....

I am feeling rotten because I have caught a cold from the little angels! But I am excited about school tomorrow... and less terrified about Tuesday as I have sorted out the trial...

I will post my diaries again as of tomorrow evening! Hope everyone is well xxxxx
 
Hi Carly,

Just wanted to say what a great way to think! You've done everything you've set out to, and sounds like it's been a good year for you from that list - I need to think like that more, instead of feeling like a failure I am going to list the good things in life.

Thank you for the inspiration for a change in attitude :) x

U can do it Carly!

Enjoy rest of school n gud luk at trial sweets x hugs x
 
Carlyyyyy, you can/will do this! You have done so well so far! get ya pretty head back in the game and lets get going :)
 
Well Carly I really admire you first for being a school teacher. It's so good to hear someone say they love there job. Secondly I admire you for being so positive you have such a great attitude to everything you will go so far in life. I'm sure you will be a great mom if you have kids and they will be most healthiest. Which is good.

I have a smoothie maker called Magic Bullet it is excellent you make loads of things with it even soups. It's the best I've ever used.

Keep up the good work and good luck with next years resolution. X x
 
Hey hunny :) Hope you're ok? Ahh I love your positiveness sooo much, you're such an inspiration. I like your goals and optimism!! I'm so happy you enjoyed school :) it's a great job! Haha yes don't worry.. you will be struggling to find time to try and eat when you're teaching. And also running around after children all day really helps keep the pounds off. Think you're sensible giving it a year just in case yo change your mind.

Don't let the fruit and veg thing get you down too much, it must be hard. Is there any one of them which you would prefer a little bit more than others? I love my veg and salad but not a massive fan of fruit, mainly because I have sensitive teeth and it seems to hurt them but I do stock up on lots of bananas and grapes as like them a bit more. Don't put yourself under too much pressure. Smoothie maker is an ace idea :) may ask for one myself. I like those innocent smoothies.. but god they're expensive. Hope you have a lovely week hun, enjoy school and hope your trial goes well xxxxx
 
Hiya Carly !!
First time I've posted on yr diary but have read it religiously since I joined this forum.
Have read thru loads of diaries on here but only a certain few have made me want to return yours being one of them. You come across as such a lovely, genuine woman and as I read of your journey with everything that's happening at the moment in yr life I just wanted to leave a comment.
Go for your dream Carly don't ever be in a place later in life where you will have regrets. You have already achieved becoming a solicitor but if your heart isn't in it train to be a teacher,grab the moment.
I never followed my dream and now I regret it so much and if I was faced with the choice again I wouldn't let any obstacles get in the way.

All the best with the decisions you will have to make.
