Day 1 - Back in the game

I've started posting my food diary on Minimins to try to keep me focused a little over this next 4 weeks in the count down to my birthday....

If you're interested in having a gander at my food diary, it'll be updated here: Minimins - Food Diary

So Day one, i was focused, i had a great breakfast, a great lunch and then my boyfriend came round...he's leaving for Australia today so we went out for dinner last night, i could have been good, in fact the place we went to i could have been really good, but it was my last night so....

We went to Turtle Bay, they have quite a few vegan options these days, and super tasty! they even mark their cocktails vegan.....

If i'd only had the curry and asked for it without the bread and had a diet drink, i would have been so on plan!

But i didn't, i had 2 cocktails, a starter and some plantain to go with my curry!

BUT! all is not lost, i'd only had 2 syns all day to that point, so things could have been a lot worse.

Tonight i am going out for a little pre NYE party, but i am planning to go steady on the drink!

Thanks for reading
Keep it Positive

Welcome!!

Hello Friend! Welcome to my blog! So glad you dropped in! My name is Vanessa (Ness for short) and i'm currently in the process of setting up a YouTube channel, i have an active Instagram and a no so active Twitter. Promise i'll get round to that! I've been on a journey this past year to lose some weight, get healthy and overhaul my life. I am following "Slimming World" as a "structure". I don't want to call it a diet, because its not, its a lifestyle change.....and boy didn't i need one!! Back in the day I pretty much only ate food on the beige scale....even the veg I ate was on that scale!  I slowly started to introduce different foods into my diet. And aside from a little more veg it was mostly bad foods. A year and 9 months ago I was challenged by a friend to try a vegan month....i accepted as I thought it would be great to get me to eat better. A month passed and another and another and here I am still vegan. The first year...

Goal - An Open Letter

So last night you asked me for a goal...and i couldn't see one. See the point. Or why I was worthy of even trying. This positive, bubbly, outgoing, always on the go girl sometimes, just sees black.... This morning I tried 7 different things on to wear. Some of them had gotten too big previously, And this morning I'd accepted that they would probably fit me now....but they didn't. They were still too big!! Maybe I haven't undone all my hard work. Maybe some of this is just water weight from the shite I've been eating. Maybe...just maybe I can shift this quickly and get back on track. But I have to start don't I?! So my goal.... 22lbs down by the 17th of May. That's a sensible 2lbs loss a week. I know I can do that! It's a week by week thing. One day off doesn't mean a whole week of self sabotage. Then. That's it. The end. The end of the struggle. Then it's just a life of eating well 70% of the time and 30% feeling f...

After Christmas....

Its that weird time of the year that you feel like you shouldn't be at work, and there's almost no point to starting anything until the beginning of the new year.... And that used to be me....don't bother starting the diet until the New Year or don't bother doing that until you've 100% planned it out over the weekend. But not this time! There are 23 days until my birthday party and i plan on being on plan for at least 22 of them (NYE is pizza and pajama party) I went to weigh in yesterday and i only managed to put a pound on....pretty good considering! I would love to get another 10lbs off for my birthday party especially seen as i have ordered the size smaller in the playsuit i want, that's a 12/14 rather than a 14/16!! The rest of this week is going to be on plan, even with all the nights out I've got coming up, Friday, Saturday, i'm looking at you!! Not as SP as i'd like. But over the weekend i'm going to get planning some tasty SP m...
