Restriction

Hi everyone. I have been eating too much. I am eating even when I full. I have been timing it by looking at the clock and making sure 2 hours has past. I am into healthy eating and making sure my day includes x 30 in terms of variety of foods, 2 fruit 5 vege 2 dairy and so on. It is IMPOSSIBLE with trying to lose weight. It just goes to show that it can be done but for now I need to concentrate on losing weight. And how am I going to do that? Back to RESTRICTION..... I have to lose weight as a priority. So yesterday I tried sticking to eating only when I was hungry which translated into eating only twice. This morning the scale reflected it.

Bottom line. Eat less and exercise more for weightloss. I have worked out that 1500 cal maintains my weight. In order to lose weight I need to be around 1000 calories daily in addition to exercising. I have kept up the walking and dancing and am feeling great doing it but only when combined with restriction does it seem to influence the scale. see you soon.....

More Sightseeing



Hey everyone I am so sorry I have not posted in awhile. I have been kept busy by what seems to me like a steady stream of overseas and interstate visitors that are staying with us. Above is a photo of me with a Koala..........isn't it cute???? when I visited the wildlife park on the weekend. My weight loss is still stalled. To be perfectaly honest I am very careful and eat right throughout the week days and nights but on the weekend it kinda goes out the window for me. I need to learn to control this better as the two days "off" is keeping the weight "on".

I have kept up with the dancing though. It is so much fun. I still don't know how to Samba but tomorrow I am doing the bellydancing class. What a great way to exercise. I can't believe I didn't think of it before. I am going on holidays to Perth to visit with my family in about 3 weeks. I am hoping to get down to 95 kilos by then. That would make me 20 kilos lighter since they last saw me in April. Cool huh???
