Day 10, still going strong! Started the day with a workout, and then spent the afternoon with friends at the beach!
They were throwing me a little surprise bday party, and everyone brought food and drinks. I had a tiny bit of food, but tried to stick to the fruits - cleverly avoided the cake, but had to go for some sushi...

Had a light dinner, and am feeling good about myself! I also changed my daily calorie consumption down to 1000/day, but went slightly over today. However, in general, I've had about 1000 calories a day, so I should be fine with this limit, and if not I can adjust it upwards slightly. I've also tried to eat more protein the past 2 days, which is hard for me as I don't particularly like eggs, meat, etc. I'll see whether it makes any difference, and if it doesn't and really starts bothering me, then I'll go back to being a veggie...

I'm going to weigh in tomorrow, feeling ok about it - I hope it won't be too bad, as I've been 'good' for 4 days now, but even if it is, I can't let it get to me, I'm definitely on the right track.

Back tomorrow, stay healthy ;)!

Day 9 - what a nice and productive day!
Got so much done today: went to the gym in the morning, cleaned my apt, went grocery shopping (healthy foods only...), stopped by the beach for a bit of tanning, and then had a private dance class.
No cravings, though I did feel a bit hungry today and hat a lot of food, but since it was all very low-calorie it didn't add up too much and I was able to stay under my limit. I didn't let my hunger get in the way, just made a healthy snack - and then I was fine. Maybe it was a bit psychological as well, being able to take a second portion and not feeling bad about it.

Gonna watch a bit of TV now and go to bed again relatively early - no going out for me tonight, I fell like I need to rest and then hopefully have a great day tomorrow, and even go out for a bit of salsa.

Tomorrow I'm doing a picknick at the beach with some friends, am bringing fruits and water/juice, and will make sure I eat a nice meal before that so I am not tempted by what my friends'll bring (for sure something sweet, and lots of carbs...).

Oh, and Monday is the big day where I'm putting myself on the scale again, for the first time since my 3 day binge... am slightly worried about that, but honestly, i think I'm doing ok now, I'm in a good place. I could be a lot more strict, but I'm not sure I could maintain that, although I've seen a couple of guys posting about adding 2 fast days a week, for an extra boost. I might do that next week, maybe Tuesday and Friday?

take care everyone, good night!

It's day 8 - just wanted to quickly share something:
I felt incredible this morning! After having sticked to my diet nicely yesterday, I went to bed at around 9.30pm (yes, I know, it's super early), and slept till 7.30am - 10 hours!!! I think my body needed that, I felt well rested, esp. coz I woke up without my alarm, so no stress, then watched TV and had a cup of tea, what a nice start into the day...

So far, it's all going well, no major issues, let's hope it stays that way!

Rest of the day went well too - had a good workout with my trainer at the gym, and want to go again tomorrow, getting back into my routine.

I decided to cancel tonight's plans, wasn't feeling like dreasing up and being stared at, but will go to bed early and get tons of stuff done tomorrow morning: clean the house, do the groceries, go to the gym - and then chill on the couch ;0

take care guys, and keep up the diet!

i guess it's day 7 - and finally I'm feeling better. The past 3 days were horrible, I was depressed, eating all the time, felt groce, and basically gave up.

I'm still feeling ugly, fat and all the negative things in the world you can think of, but i'm proud that I got through today. I had set myself the goal in the morning to stick to a good healthy diet - yes, I could've done better I'm sure, and I should've gone to the gym as well.
But hey, I'm really trying, and I couldn't get myself to go to the gym because I felt so yucky. I will go tomorrow though!

THANK YOU so much for keeping me motivated, I know that this comes difficult for every single one of you, and to be honest I've never hard the feeling of being surrounded (even if only virtually) by people who understand me so well.

Let me repeat the advice someone gave me (you know who you are...):
CHOICES, CHANCES & CHANGES! You must MAKE the CHOICE to take a CHANCE or your life will never CHANGE!
This really got me to think, and even though it took me 3 days of binging before I was able to move forward, it had a very powerful effect.

As I go to bed today I'm ending a good diet-day, I look forward to an even better day tomorrow, to feeling better, healthier and with more energy, and being mindful about what I eat. I won't weigh myself before Monday, because I know I've gained weight and it would just make me feel down, but I'm hopeful that my weight will have stablized by Monday, putting me on the right track towards my goal.

Again, thank you for all your support!
