Drinking coffee and thinking about exercise

Yes

I love your shirt!

Fibre one brownies are soo good! they make my teeth hurt though. Might need to go to the dentist.

I set aside wednesday, friday and saturday for cheat meals but now I'm just eating what I want everyday.

I like taking photos of my meals because it gives me ideas of what to eat when I'm hungry. I had a folder on my old phone of healthy meals I enjoyed, for ideas of when I needed to eat less calories or healthier options.

Apparently I'm a really good writer (everyone keeps telling me to write a book!) and I make really good pancakes

Find some snacks that are indulgent, but healthier and less calories, and try snacking one less day a week, then increasing that every few months so you aren't snacking at all or only once in a blue moon

Pickles, popcorn, chips, dried fruit, pretzels

I like chai lattes, caramel frapps and chocolate chip fraps. I'm sure there's more, but there's not much variety in New Zealand. I think Gloria Jeans used to make a tim tam drink that was nice.

WW pancake w/ strawberries, banana and maple syrup

What has worked for me is setting a few mini goals at a time and keeping track of non scale victories.

I have a piece of paper beside my bed with three weights. 115kg, 110kg and 105kg. 115 took a while to tick off, and yesterday I was able to tick off 110kg after struggling for months. My weight is now sitting at 107.5kg, so I'm unlikely to go above 110kg again unless I ditch my lifestyle change. Soon I'll be able to make a…

Yum Banana cream pie

Cabbage salad with lemon juice. Garlic infused olive oil, salt and pepper and sweet corn with tomato and basil flavoured tuna stirred through.

I think that's up to you!

The swings at the park felt more comfortable

I hope you are doing better now! 2.5 months is excellent progress, well done :-) we're gonna make it all the way this time!!!

Yum Chocolate almonds

Haven't tried Lobster

Fuller House, Mom and New Amsterdam

One of the first times was realising I was 20kg heavier than a pregnant woman at my school who was the same height as me, and she was like 8 months along. That was mortifying.

Anything and everything. I'm almost out of calories today.

This is for yesterday: lots of dogs came up to me on my walk and wanted pats. It was really cute.

I believe it was a chocolate santa. I wish I had stuck it in the fridge, by the time I ate it, it was partly melted and not that delicious.

Trying to figure out how to spend my day. I've been sick for weeks and am showing no signs of being well, and I've dedicated this time to losing weight. I should do some exercise but I don't want to (I feel yucky, really dry throat, trouble breathing and catching my breath at times), and I don't know how to spend the rest…

I'm one notch away from needing to put new holes in my belt!!!

Was told today that I am large, and will still be large when I've lost weight. Thanks. Guess they were saying I have broad shoulders, am tall and have a larger frame. Didn't feel great though. Was also told by the same person that maybe having a large stomach is part of my natural shape and I shouldn't fight it. I don't…
