As I sit here with a glass of Martini Asti, a (large) bar of dairy milk in the fridge, watching 1 million flipagram videos that seem to have taken over Instagram today, I have been looking at peoples pictures of me from the past year. Normally I avoid cameras like the plague, but I noticed some pictures of myself from august, my slimest point of the year. I look healthy, I'm smiling, my skins glowing, and I distinctly remember fitting into my skinny black jeans with ease. (By ease I mean, not having to lie flat on the bed squeezing everything into said jeans and then holding my breath until the zip reaches the top.)
Instead, my skin is worse for wear, I feel sick, bloated, I've had daily headaches, I've started to explode out of my clothes, and the warm fuzzy glow of food and drink is starting to disperse into a dark, gloomy outlook as I start to think of life back to normal. Routine, work, tailored skirts and trousers and most importantly a holiday I have booked for the end of January with friends.
Soooo.....
I haven't weighed myself but I reckon I've put on a good 2 stone since August. Boo!! The weight loss is important but right now I just want to feel better, I'm sick of feeling ill and I want to have some energy back! Today is my last day of over-indulgence, tomorrow I'll start back on my diet, only problem is I haven't got any healthy food in so I might not have the best start but I'm going to do the best I can! I'm really going to kick start myself Saturday with a 2 day weekend cleanse that my hubby is going to do too which will make it easier. I've done a 5 day cleanse before which was hard but my body thanked me for it! It's such a nice feeling to not crave sugar and carbs! I've got 4 weekends before my holiday and my plan is to cleanse every weekend until then.
I don't know how often I will update this blog, but my next will probably be Saturday, when I weigh myself, I'll know what I want to loose, my goals, my juice detox will start, and what my plans are, so it will be more interesting than me babbling on about my cravings!
What are you goals? Have you got a January plan?
