Day 2

Hi guys,

im back with day 2.

i had a tough time this morning, making sure i dont eat what im not supposed to and stay within the diet. my colleagues had me buy puff-puff (balls of flour, yeast, milk, eggs and sugar fried in groundnut oil) and i had to make sure i didnt eat from it. i had taken a serving each of special k and weetabix for breakfast and lunch along with oranges and a boiled egg whenever i feel like snacking.

you will not believe that i took the orange (i read on the net that it is very good to take a fruit 30 minutes before eating), a mug of tea (green tea with one cube of sugar)and i had to still take the bowl of special k (all in a bid to make sure i dont eat the puff-puff, aarrrggg!

so im just coming back from my walk and im ready to go into the day.

havent done my makeup in 2 days now (is that a bad thing?)

id really appreciate any comments from you guys.

P.S. i wont be making any posts tomorrow and next, but il be sure to update you on monday about how it went.

Ciao!

Day 1

Can someone please tell me if i can eat fried unripe and salted plantain chips.

i just ate a wrap of one and im not sure if i can eat in within the new diet.

Day 1

I walked to the bank to withdraw some money and walked to a supermarket which is some distance from my office to buy cereals (weetabix and special k) i also bough Marvel skimmed milk. didnt find any sweeteners but have decided to take not more than 1 cube of sugar per bowl of cereal (but i plan on taking the cereal 3 times a day, that means 3 cubes of sugar a day. is that good?)

so i went for a walk in a roundabout way after leaving the supermarket, sweated a bit and got my dose of vitamin D for the day. havent eaten yet though. i dont want to open the cereals in the office. what i want to do is put out the portions per day from home so i wont be tempted to take more when i feel like munching something.

il let uou know if anything interesting happens again today.

P.S. i feel empty already. and iv had 75cl of water today. need to get more of it.

I WON!!!

Yes, i won a giveaway on Makeup by Renren’s blog. u can check her blog out her blog here

i won the Glitter Gal Mascara set and im absolutely thrilled about it and cant wait.

im just wondering how im going to get it. iv sent her a mail though and im sure she’ll get back to me about shipping info and stuff like that.

My Weight Loss Program

Hi guys,

i know this blog was created for makeup, but it is also for my “musings” too so please pardon me if we will not be talking about makeup for a long while. of course if i do a new look, buy a new product or have a gig il let u know about it.

Back to my weight. lets go a little way back in time to when i was a kid. i was known as the fat, chubby one. infact, my sis says that then my whole body used to shake when i take a step {hilarious}. when i went to secondary school it was almost the same but i lost some of it. Uni was the best. i dont know if it was all the stress or living by myself, i really cant say but all i know is that for the 5 years i was in Uni, i was slimmer every year i.e. i was slimmer in my second year than i was in my first year, i was slimmer in my third year than i was in my second year and so on. during youth service the trend continued and i remained slim (my pimples even disappeared cos the weather was wonderful for my skin). i stayed home for a year before getting a job and my first into the job, i lost most of the weight i had gained in the one year i stayed home.

And then my troubles begin, my weight loss in the first month of work was attributed to teh change in routine but i liked it but after a while, the weight started coming back. this was attributed to the fact that i got used to working.

(Lets digress a little bit here, my weight habit goes thus – when im relaxed, at home on holiday or at peace with life, i add weight. as soon as i face a little stress or work or school, i lose all the weight. this has been the pattern)

So NOW, i can hardly fit into my clothes and clothes i bought last year are no more my size. iv had to give out some clothes because of it. i always tell my self, il go the gym, eat less, go on a diet or something of the sort but as soon as i wake up the next day, it all falls to the ground and i go back to my old ways. my boyfriend even registered me in a gym but all to no use cos i hardly go.

One of my colleagues this year embarked on diet and weight loss campaign and now im inspired by her (maybe il post some of her before and after pics for u to see how much she has lost in 11/2 months). so im starting my weight loss program TODAY, NOW, infact i just came back from the purchase of the cereals il be feeding on and iv done my first stretch of walking as it is the only exercise available to me at work (and im at work 95% of the time).

im hoping that putting up a diary of the program will encourage me to continue when i feel lax and il appreciate your encouragement too.

Anyone with a story of their weight loss program should please feel free to mail it to me or post it as a comment. id love to read how u did it.

So here goes, wish me all the best.
