It Points Out My Fat
By Groovybabe • Apr 18th, 2008 • Category: being motivated, dating, diet management, goals, incentive, inch loss, life, self esteem, shopping, weightloss, xenicalI am 4lbs down since Monday. I can see it in my face. I feel much better for eating right, inside. I feel in control. There are so many positives from doing this. I am really proud of myself for managing to do it this week of all weeks because my life has been dramas ahoy (just for a change) and I have at all times stuck rigidly to my weightloss plan. This tells me this time I am going to do it again. I am quite excited by this. I can’t wait to start getting comments from the people in my life who only know me at this weight. I can’t wait to hit the ever elusive 13 stone era (although that will be a few weeks away yet)…
You know what I am really looking forward to? When I hit the 12 stone era because I do not consider that to be fat, just overweight. Hopefully others will not consider it to be fat too. It’s also going to be easier to reap the health benefits of weightloss now I weigh less to. After all it will take less pounds to reach a ten per cent drop…
I bought a jean skirt yesterday. It’s the first one I have owned for maybe ten years. I bought a size 16 because that is what I am, but I somehow convinced myself that there was no way it would fit me because I am kidding myself if I think I am a size 16. But of course it fitted me, because I AM a size 16 (UK, remember). However, it was quite tight fitting and while I think it is passable in the day time I would not feel confident enough going out on the pull in it. It points out my fat, or at least I feel like it does. So I guess I am back to the drawing board about tomorrow night.
Talking of tomorrow night, I am giving up beer again. I am going back to sticking to diet coke and vodka. It didn’t do me any harm in the past and will help me to lose weight.
(Oh can I also point out to those of you who have misunderstood - xenical is NOT an appitite suppressant. It blocks 30% of the absorption of fat from being digested into your body, meaning your body turns to the fat stores you already have quicker to burn off, that is all.)
Groovybabe is 14.11 stones today and feeling in control.

Hey, wanna hear a good way to lose 4 pounds in one day? Don’t eat dinner and go out on the piss and be a complete dumbarse. Heh… dehydration, I know… but it was a lovely number to see on the scale this morning.
It’ll be back soon, though with this 4 3-hour ferry trips thing this weekend I’ll be lucky not to puke up my brekkie and lunch! Stupid rough water!
Bed time pour moi!
ps - you’re gonna be unstoppable this round. No breaks till you’re 136! Wooooo yeah!
yeah the old drink is a fab way to lose a lot of weight the next day. I can lose anything up to 6lbs in that situ, although last week I didnt lose anything. :’(
I am going to be unstoppable. Vodka only tonight, or wine but wine makes me naughty so probs only vodka.
