I'm still here!!!
I've not been on here for over a week because I've got 2 and a half weeks holiday from work and been busy visiting friends etc. Go back on Wed 24th, so just making the most of my free time.
Anyway its late in the night so i'm not gonna be able to give a full update on the last week or so, and maybe it wasnt a clever idea to start a diary, which i can't seem to update every day!!
What i can tell you is that I am still on the diet and yes I have been struggling, but then it's a diet or should i say a life choice. I'm determined to continue to stick to it. Yes, i'm always questioning myself about the diet, but I've made the choice and im gonna stick to it!! I find i'm silently talking to myself and it's as if i'm telling my brain that you can do what you like to try and get me to cheat/give up, but I'm a fighter and i will fight!! You have to make comprises in your relationships, you have to work hard to be able to have a decent bank balance, new shoes, big house etc, so why not work hard with the diet, isn't that what matters most, my health, the way I feel about myself, because if i dont feel good, then nothing else matters, does it?
The voice in my head replies with negative comments such as you'll put the weight back on.....you'll never be happy....you're wasting your time....you'll never get to your goal........etc etc
But i'll just argue with positive comments and i suppose it gives me encouragement!!
OK, i know what you're all thinking.......have i lost the plot!....am i drunk....................................
No, but i've just done some brisk walking/jogging on the treadmill, and i think its the side effects!!! No seriously i'm just telling you about my psychological battles, which i'm sure many others have experienced too.
Hope you're all well
