Why Be Normal?
The 80 Day Fat Attack has been postponed for a whileI'm struggling so much on my own. The shift redesign at work is really stressing me out and I'm finding it really hard to focus on me and dieting, motivation has gone while I've got so many other things on my mind!
I have found this to be so true -- you need a good routine in order to find the tiem and energy you need to commit to diet and fitness programme. Beck has a whole chapter about "making time to diet".
I'm not about to go completely off the rails and eat myself into oblivion, I have a plan.
Good. If all you do is "tread water" than you are in a better position when you are able to redirect your energies.
I'm going to have cd for breakfast and lunch because I'm okay at work and the evening is where I struggle, so on an evening I'll be having a SW style meal.
It sounds a lot like doing CD810 and I know people who have lost all their weight by doing that -- never ssing.
I'm hoping that the decreased calories will help me maintain my weight until mid September when I'll be going back to my old CDC and starting 80 Day Fat Attack with her help, I just can't do it alone.
I know I can't do it on my own... I need to be held accountable.
The reason I've said mid September is because my mum is going to do it with me
That should work well --neither one of you will want to let the other down.
I think I need to get a bit more comfortable eating healthy meals again, I've become completely carbophobic so I need to nip that in the bud!!!
Yes, I felt like this too. And, I was way to obsessed and focused. It was all I could talk about it seemed.
I don't want to have any extra food issues I'm fussy enough as it is, so that's why I've chosen SW style meals rather than the higher CD plan meals, the cals will probably be similar but there'll be more choice.
Making it work for you -- makes sense.
I know I seem to change my mind and my commitment as fast as I change my underwear but all I'm doing right now is beating myself up all the time and I'm suffering for it!!
Again with the Beck... but that IS why she has you choose two diets. As long as you do not stop trying, then you are working on it.
I hope this is the right choice, it seems to be the only way I can get through these next few highly stressful weeks at work
It sounds as if you gave it a lot of consdieration and have chosen to not try and set yourself with too high a bar. And, beign flexible and having a game plan for when the time is right makes good sense.
Hi Sal,
I hope that things get ed re: work. Your job sounds like the from H3ll. Your current food plans and those later sounds very reasonable. It is wonderful that yor mom will be doing it with you.
I hope your weekend goes well.

hi hun. it's a load of pants! i'd still phone the regional office though, they might send someone through just til yours comes back. you do not have to go into a meeting without your rep either so if they ask you, then ask to wait til the rep is back.

I've finally given in to the Twitter revolution... Ive been deliberately avoiding it for years, due to my Facebook addiction, but I went on earlier because my friend was on about it yesterday, and yep I'm hooked, I'm following lots if the Biggest Loser contestants and CD even Twitter.
I've got my general name which is totally unoriginal @sallylornamoore but I'm going to create another one to track my 80 Day Fat Attack for when I get back to my CDC. That twitter name is @80DayFatAttack feel free to follow one or both

Thank you Mel. I guess I need to revisit Beck, not everything has fallen by the wayside, I still eat slowly and sitting down, but I don't read my arcs, I don't even know where they are; oops. I've got Linda Spangle on my kindle so I might give that a read too!!

@80DayFatAttack on Twitter is up and running, I've only got 4 followers and one of them is me, how sad! Ah well, I'm not really doing it for anyone else I'm doing it to keep track of my thoughts and feelings. Support would be great but I know not many people use Twitter and I'm not about to make this public on FB.

It wasn't too bad, I used the iPhone app, it got harder setting up the second account but I've only had it a day and I've got the hang of it. The novelty will probably wear off soon for me though.
Love that white dress by the way!! I'm not really posting much I'm lurking though, hope you're doing okay.

Oh 6 weeks off you lucky thing, I should've been a teacher, most of my family are teachers, why did I feel like I had to be different lol?
Ive been watching Biggest Loser Australia to try and get inspired to get my act together. It's got me thinking about why I self-sabotage all the time. I really wish I had the answer, I really wish I knew why I allow myself to give up so easily :cry:
Today at my friends sons birthday party I actually felt ashamed of myself. There were people there I hadn't seen for probably a year and I felt so ashamed that I'd put so much weight back on. It upsets me and I hate feeling ashamed of being me and of my body

What a sh!tty sh!tty day :cry: this morning I completely misjudged the size of a parking space and hit a car not any old car, a big Audi 4x4 Anyway little damage to my car, nothing a bit of T-Cut won't fix, but the Audis door is dented. I spoke to the Audis own this morning, gave her my phone number etc but didn't have my insurance details on me at the time, so she said she'd call me at 6pm tonight.... It's now 7pm and I'm still waiting!!! I know I'm at fault but this is just plain rude. I daren't do anything or go anywhere in case I'm driving and she rings.
Trouble is I don't know who she is or any contact details because she just wanted my contact details, so I can't even contact her. As if I didn't feel bad enough already I could do without having to wait for her to ring. It's not like she'll have changed her mind about claiming because it's a pretty big dent and scrape. Just call me already, put me out of my misery pleeeeeease!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:
