Post for a pretty girl

A family member of mine has been going through a tough time.
She has lost a lot of weight, YIPEE

BUT, she has also been tackling her alcohol addiction and attending AA meetings, getting her life on track and just fixing all the broken little pieces.

These are some pictures for her for motivation.

Slow progress

I mentioned a while ago that i had started my eating plan and things were slow.
I have since only lost an additional 1.2kg but I know its my extreme chocolate addiction thats spoiling things.
LUCKILY I have only been losing and I have not picked up a gram yet.
The two things I have been most dedicated in consuming have been water and CHOCOLATE.

I am not even going to stress.
Winter has this effect on me, once summer arrives I always drop atleast 4kg.

I have been so cold its been making me so hungry for the most ridiculous things.
I have however taken up a new hobby in the meantime, collecting make up.

My friend has been teaching me bit bit, but I have been thoroughly enjoying buying colourful palettes and brushes.
Since this post is a bit more random than thought out and structured I thought Id add a funny picture to lighten it all up.

Eating what?

Three posts in one day, lets not get too excited.

I started back on the eating plan 29 July.

Three weeks of detox (no carbs, NONE, NILL, ZERO)

And the remaining weeks I get to add 10g carbs a week.

Its been strangely easier than I thought it would be, although the lack of carbs has made me an easy target for sickness (read below post).

I am both excited and DREADING Monday's weigh-in.

Excited because the moment I leave I can have an apple or something CARB-Y.

Dreading, well I have to weigh in after being on my own for 2 weeks...GREAT... I have a feeling this time the loss is hectically slow.

The first time I did this plan I lost 6kg in the first 3 weeks... and I have only lost 2.2kg in the first week this time... I was super disappointed. 

BUT this time, I really need to push through and do this, there is nothing better than feeling your clothes slowly becoming to big to fit the same.

AND because I love to buy clothes ALL THE TIME, this is the best excuse.

I haven't been able to exercise properly for 2 weeks without coughing and wheezing... so hopefully this bronchitis gets the message and buggers off soon.

I will try and keep things as updated as possible, and record my progress as I go.
