It's time...

... It's time to not sink back to old weights...
... It's time to feel good about the skin you're in...
... It's time to end yo-yo dieting, binge eating, and feeling hungry...
... It's time for sustainable weight loss...

What this blog aims to achieve:

1. An opportunity for me to discuss my own feelings and experiences with weight loss.
2. An opportunity for others to share their own experiences and feelings.
3. An opportunity for us all to get through this together.

HI GUYS! i'm back blogging... :)

Well, after a few months hiatus due to uni work going absolutely mental and me ending up extremely stressed and depressed - things are looking up!

I ignored weight loss for a few months, and my scheme of trying to regulate my metabolism and eating habits has worked nicely as i didn't gain much at all over those 3 months!!! So when a few weeks ago i tried to lose again - i have been rewarded with a very easy 2.5kilograms down... with no difficulties at all!

Its so exciting... but i really do seem to be along the way to sustainable weight loss!!!

I'm enjoying easily fitting in my favourite jeans now (size 10, i may add! though thats larger target sizing :)) - which couldn't be better timing as my darling old baggy jeans just fell apart! They were on the way out when i went for a hike a few weekends ago... and now they are simply in pieces haha...

I've started focusing on including plenty of nuts, seeds, fish and dairy in my diet, and i've had very positive results - no chocolate or fat cravings at all! And the mini packs of sesame snaps have become my staple "emergency food" - i always keep one in my handbag in case i get hungry!

I must admit, i'm not having much time to do very much exercise at the moment - but i'm making sure i get about 30 mins of incidental walking a day... and trying to get the old heart rate up once a week with running or soccer or something!

I better get ready for uni, tooooooodles! :)
