Week Five: Adding Muscles to the Mixture

Straight into it this week! Lets goooooo...



Are you wondering what a perfect week looks like? Wonder no more, I'll show you. :)

And, for all my hard work this week, I was rewarded with my awesome measurements...

I'm so happy this week. I have nothing negative to... oh... you want to talk about diet? Umm... Well... Okay then. Click for Food Journal

Yes. Diet is the actual bane of my weight loss experience. I can gladly work out, get used to the taste of Green Tea, spend a fortune on toilet paper, pour bottles of pills down my throat. But when it comes to controlling the amount of calories I put into my body I can not do it! As soon as I think "diet" my stomach starts growling and my brain obsesses over food. I can't help it! I HATE it!!!

So this week I just didn't bother. I wrote down what I ate, but other than that I ate what I wanted, when I wanted, and I didn't measure a single thing. And you know what? I don't care because...

I look freaking AWESOME this week! Lookit that almost non-existant back flab!!! I am one :) girl this week...

Week Four: The End of the World...

The Rapture was scheduled for Saturday 21st May. It is now Sunday 22nd May, so it looks like we survived. Naturally, survival is cause for celebration, but is Rapture something that one ideally wants to survive? Surely it would've been better to get whisked off to heaven instead of surviving on Earth to endure months of fire and torture. I don't know...

What I do know is that my body is definitely changing. I can see the difference in the mirror now (especially when I suck in!) and I can feel the difference with my clothes. What do you reckon? (Excuse the ripped and holey sports top... it's on its way out but I can't afford to buy any new ones at the moment. Hehe)

It's very cool to be able to see such a nice little difference. Obviously I still have a loooong way to go, but it's encouraging to see early(-ish) results. I was expecting my measurements to be smaller this week, in fact I was kind of disappointed with my results, but there hasn't been a single millimeter of increase so far, so I'm still smiling!


I've also ordered a bottle of Liproxenol, which is a weight loss pill. I'm excited to try it, since I have done a lot of research on diet pills and they seem to be pretty effective and realistic. One warning flag I have learned to spot is the "miracle" promise cure. I don't believe it, and neither should you. Liproxenol seems to be safe, with many positive reviews and results. It also comes with a money back guarantee, which is reassuring. I'm definitely excited to give it a go, plus it will be my first product review! Horray!

But I'm going to stop typing and start talking! Lets see how Week 4 went...

Yes, yes. It was a practically perfect exercise week, wasn't it? Thank you for noticing. Please address all congratulatory flowers and gifts to my home address. Actually. Don't. My mailbox is very small and every time I get a package that won't fit (ooer!) I have to walk an hour to the pick-up office. (If you were wondering, my owl is too small to carry large parcels so please don't use her to post gifts either. She'll end up dropping it.) But... I digress. Lets talk less about mail delivery services and more about how many CM'S I HAVE LOST SO FAR!!!

Ooooooh, yeah, Baby! Looking not too shabby (although, admittedly, not that tidy either) I would have liked to see a little more loss 4 weeks into the program, but I think with a few extra tweaks here and there, I'll be on the right track.

Diet will be the first thing tweaked, I think. It was extremely hard this week to stick to the 1,200 Calorie target. I need to have a good look at a realistic Caloric intake because I do NOT want to starve my body, I don't want to become fatigued and I definitely don't want my workouts to suffer. I feel some nutritional research is in order... *Sarcastic Yaaaaay!*

In the mean time... May you live long and prosper. x
