And so it begins
March 8th 2007 10:06
I love love love chocolate but a time has come now where I think I need to love it less. Yes it's the dreaded diet word. Last summer I started a diet, not a Weight Watchers or Slimming World one, just my own. I cut out having an alcholic drink nearly every night or every other night and limited it to at first a couple beers either on a Friday or Saturday night but after a while I found I didn't even fancy that. I cut right back on my love of chocolate and my other love lots of butter of bread and toast. I went for daily walks in the park with my son Callum and he helped me keep count of my sit ups, press ups and joined in with my Davina McCall workout dvd. I did really well and within a couple months lost around 2 stone. Then came Christmas and then January and February, all those horrible months that you don't want to exercise but veg out in front of the television and eat rubbish. But now March is here with the sun shining, crisp fresh mornings and the thought that summer isn't that far away and I want to get into those lovely fashionable clothes this year.
So now it begins, the dietathon of 2007. I'm not sure how much weight exactly I want to loose, I just know I'd like to try and get into a size 14 or even better a size 12 (UK sizing) pair of jeans. Last year when I was dieting a message board I post at had a few of us trying to loose weight together etc and so we kept a daily record of how it was going. They all seem to have been good though and not let the weight creep on. I found the being able to keep a daily record and at times have peoples input good and an incentitive too so I thought that this time round I would keep a blog of how I'm doing and anyone is welcome to either give me advice or just tell me to get off my butt and do some sit ups. Please though be nice to me I have a lot of weight to loose and I think I'm in a way being quite brave doing this as a blog and don't know if I could handle too much criticism.
Now I think I've done my quoto of finger exercising today.
Take Care.

Mum's Word
No criticism here.
But really no chocolate? I'm a lover of chocolate.
After I had my daughter Jordan I told Mr M to email everyone and tell them that if they were thinking of sending flowers to not bother....send chocolate.
And then the midwife shattered my dream of devouring entire blocks of chocolate especially if I was breastfeeding.
I worked out I could have 2 rows of a Cadbury block of chocolate without affecting the baby.
Love & stuff

One Too Many Chocolate Bars
Well I didn't succeed with the no chocolate, but I have greatly cut down on them which I'm impressed with.
I love your story about when your daughter Jordan was born.
Thank you for popping by.
Take Care.
