Day 52-March 31

Once again today was a fail at trying to stick to the diet. I went to a dinner at a fam friend's and they cooked such amazing food it was hard to pass. I need to kick back into the routine. Here's what i ate;

-1 orange
-1/2 an apple
-1 boiled egg

I miss out on my salad the whole day though:( So today's a better day hopefully, back to healthy food. *sigh* why must all good food either be high in fat, carbs or sugar:( LOL

Have a good day everyone!

Day 50- March 28

So I've had a terrible failure with the last 2 weeks or so of continuing the blog. Thankyou annam for being up my bum about continuing it. Haha! mwah! i wouldn't have bothered if u hadnt kept reminding me. But yeah, apologies, I stopped blogging due to being busy mid march. And then it just turned into me being too lazy to continue:$. anyways I'm back to attempting the daily blogs:)

As far as weight loss goes I've not had such a big # of lbs shedding but I've toned up a fair bit. For those who saw me in Jan until now, should see a difference. And finally the clothes that I got from pakistan that stopped looking good. look decent now:D

food diary:

-2 boiled whites
-1/2 a yolk
-2 apples
-1 orange
-1 medium salad romaine lettuce and cucumbers
-1/2 can of tuna with light mayo and black pepper

Food Diary;
-2 boiled egg whites
-1 bowl lentil soup
-8 ghol ghappas stuffed with chickpeas, potatoes, yogurt
-1/9 delissio's garlic bread bruschetta pizza

I'm feeling so gross right now, I've attempted to walk off the feeling but no luck. I feel like if I make an attempt at the turbojam or turbofire workouts I'll puke everywhere...UGH...so grossed out right now. :(

Day 34- March 12

-1 bowl of caesar salad

-1 bowl of green salad (romaine lettuce and cucumbers)
-1/2 can of tuna with light mayo
-2 fish sticks

Good night!

Day 31

Helloo,

I started my day off today with the turbo fire 55min workout. To sum it up, I ALMOST DIED. I was so tired, I literally collapsed when I was done. And this doesn't help the muscle sore-ness I've been experiencing. The other day for some retarded reason I decided it would be a good idea to walk on the highest incline possible on my treadmill for 40 mins. Since then I feel like my legs are made outta wood and I can't bend them. Wasn't the most flattering thing when I dropped my wrislet in the mall, and had a hard time bending down to pick it up. Specially when you're someone who's fat. Got to say that made it to the top ten of most embarrassing moments.

Food Diary;

-2 oranges
-1 apple
-1 Bowl of a gross looking stirfry but it tasted awesome (too many veggies to name, and tilapia fish
-2 pieces of chicken with garden salad
-1/2 a pita
-3 tbspoons of red pepper humus (every humus lover needs to try this) its amazingggggg

Day 30-March 8

Food Diary;

-1 bowl of fruit salad like yesterday
-1 bowl of green salad (romaine lettuce, cucumbers, green peppers)
-1/2 can of tuna
-2 tbspoon of light mayo
-1 small bowl of lentil soup
-2 melba crackers
-1 large piece of indian sweets (basin barfi)
-8 namak pareh

Excuse the "namak pareh" didn't know how to describe them. LOL. Other then 8 pieces of deep fried dough, fried to crisp and lightly seasoned. It sounded so much less fattier by the proper name. LOL. I know I totally cheated with the barfi, but this is what happens when I'm offered something and I'm feeling hungry. Nonetheless, I did loose weight from yesterday, so I did a small happy dance. hehe :$

Day 29-March 7

Food Diary

-1 large bowl of fruit salad pictured below
-1 bowl of green salad (romaine lettuce, cucumbers, green peppers)
-1 bowl of lentil soup
-2 shami kebabs
-1 seekh kebab

I did overload at dinner with my portion of protein but the kebabs were so good. I just couldn't resist :$

Day 28

Hey All,

I really dont have much to say except that I'm tired and therefore won't be writing more then i need to.lol

Food Diary;
-2 oranges
-1/2 cup apple juice
-1 bowl of stirfry veggies
-1/2 cucumber
-1 cup lentil soup
-4 premium plus crackers

good night all!

Day 27-March 5

Food Diary;

-1 boiled egg white
-1 bowl of fruit salad ( apple, orange, strawberries)
-1 mini tortilla stuffed with chicken breast and veggies
-1 large bowl of romaine lettuce and cucumbers
-3 sole fish sticks baked

Day 26- March 4

Today was meant to be a trip to Toronto with my two cousins. After a longgggg and indecisive debate on whether we should go, we didn't. Thanks to the cold weather and the hateful idea of walking around downtown streets freezing. So we stayed local and went to Jack Astors instead:).

Food Diary;

-1 boiled egg white
-1 bowl fruit salad (apple, peaches, strawberries, plum)
-1 large bowl of caesar salad
-about 8 nacho tortilla chips, with veges and cheese
-1/8 of a garlic cheese bread
-9 fries
-and a nibble here and there of moxie's desserts

So I really didn't need the cheating, but it's so hard when you go out to eat to be healthy, and at the same time sit on the same table as people who are eating exactly what You'd like to be eating. So I cheated:$

Day 25- March 3

Hey,

We had another family dinner thing. Out of all of the blood relatives we have in Canada, there's about 4 homes, so the parents all decided once a month we'd get together at a different home and have dinner together. So today was one of those days. This most probably the most successful dinner I've ever had since they started. Had more then I usually would, but it was controlled.

Food Diary;

-2 egg whites omelet (green peppers, onions, tomatoes, and a sprinkle of marble cheese)
-1 weight watchers brown bread slice
-1 apple
-the plate pictured below *2 tablespoons of rice, 1/4 naan, chicken nehari, coleslaw, roasted chicken, meat korma, chilli chicken
-1/2 slice of a brownie cake, and it wassss a thin slice

:$

Day 24

Hey all!

So it's approaching almost 4 weeks:). And honestly in the beginning I didn't think I'd make it past the first week. Of course I've had slip ups, but I've gotten back up. I had a long conversation with one of my friend's today, about the whole weight loss thing, and mainly about the lack of motivation we've both felt of are feeling. In situations where you feel unsuccessful, and you find someone in the same boat it really helps. Having someone constantly up your bum about staying on track, can either make you love them or hate them with a passion. To the person whom I'm talking about, I'll make sure you love me :).

Today's Diary;

-2 oranges
-2 chicken kebabs
-1 bowl of romaine lettuce and cucumbers
-1 handful of almonds
-2 boiled egg whites
-1 bowl of vegetable soup
-4 melba crackers

Night night everyone!

Day 23

Hello,

So today was a much better day then the last 2. Except that I refused to look in the mirror, my face was so fat today, it was gross.

Today's Food Diary;

-2 egg whites boiled
-1 orange
-1 bowl of vegetable soup
-4 melba crackers
-2 chicken kebabs
-1 bowl of romaine lettuce and cucumbers

I've also be slacking on the intensity that I'm completing my workouts. I'll do them but not with full intensity. Tomorrow I'm going to give it all the energy, and make sure my muscles ache when I'm done. LOL

Night night everyone <3

Day 22-Febuary 29

Happy Leap Day!

For the last few days, people who'd seen me almost a month ago have seen a difference in how I look. And as much as that's supposed to be an encouragement to keep at it, I tend to slip off the road a bit and cheap here and there. So again I cheated, but it wasn't no where as bad as I was yesterday.

Food Diary;
-2 Egg Whites boiled
-2 oranges
-1 bowl of fruit salad, consisting of apples, strawberries, plum and peach
-2 palm size homemade vegetable kebabs
-2 saucer plates of mince meat biryani

So I really could have done without the rice, unnecessary calories not to mention that I'm allergic to rice. I swell up like a balloon the next day. Hence locking myself indoors the next day LOL.

Tomorrow will be a better day!

Day 21- Febuary 28

So I've been really slacking on posting these last two days, and it's solely because I've been so bad its ridiculous. So it was one of my closest friend's birthday and she really wanted to go and have a small celebration. Long story short, I ate a big fatty, calorie filled dessert. It was really bad, but it was definitely one hell of a dessert. For anyone who loves chocolate icecream, brownies, and waffles you NEED to go to this place and have it. It was called Chocolate Divine at Symposium Cafe.

LOL so we were inspired by two people to go and eat this dessert. Thanks to the tempting beautiful pictures they uploaded on facebook of the dessert.

So today, I just ended up eating just the dessert. Which it self had to have been at least 1000 calories, but worth every bite.


So I ate this today, and felt so bad after eating it, I just drank water and green tea to digest it.

Day 20

Hey All

I don't really have anything to say so I'm going to jump right into it.

Food Diary;

-1 glass orange juice
-1 apple
-1 handful of almonds
-1 cup of raw cauliflower
-2 tbspoon of chilli humus yogurt dip
-grilled tilapia
-1 bowl of steamed veggies

Day 19-Feb 26

Hellooo,,, so today I felt extremely gross all evening. My brothers insisted on eating Eddies Wok n Roll, and realistically...who can say no to that so I ate somewhat greasy food after a long time, and ended up puking. But I'm feeling alot better now:)

Food Diary;
-1 omelet with green pepper onions n tomataos and a slice of light cheddar cheese
-1 slice of whole wheat bread
-1 bowl of stir fried veggies with chicken breast
-1 plate of ;

-2 tablespoons of General Tao Chicken
-2 tablespoons of Chili Chicken
-about a handful of house noddles, i think thats the name
-2 tiger prawns

So today really wasnt the best of days, the excess amounts of salt and oil used in their food is kinda gross. But it was totally worth puking for. LOL

good nite!

Day 18-Feb 25

So I knew I'd again be going out to meet friends, which would obviously consist of eating outside, so I didnt eat a whole lot in the day.

Food Diary;
-1 glass of orange juice
-2 melba crackers
-1 chicken quesadilla (i totally spelled that wrong)
-1 small bowl of caesar salad

After eating Boston Pizza's serving portion i was absolutely stuffed! So again I drank out the contents through green tea and water

Day 17-feb 24

First and foremost to those who read my blog on a regular. I've slacked majorily on posting. i had to keeping a note of everything I ate tho.

Food Diary;

-1/2 glass orange juice
-bowl of fruit salad ( cataloupe, strawberries, apple)
-6 melba crackers with cream cheese
-1 small bowl of chicken soup
-1 small bowl of lentils soup

Day 16

So I totallyyyyyy went against my diet rules today; low carbs if any at all and no sugar.

I had a really good time today catching up with all friends so I guess it's all in good fun:).
-1 chicken shawarma plate, (no rice), consisted of their "to die for potatoes", lol, chicken, pasta salad and fatoosh, AND 1 whole pita.
-1 Moxie's bite of a brownie served with a scoop of vanilla icecream and whipped cream.
-1 Peppermint Tea
-2 Green Tea cups

So I stick to some other ground rules, I don't ever skip breakfast , but today while trying to reach the mall ontime to meet friends I rushed and didn't grab breakfast. Which resulted in me pigging out on the chicken shawarma plate..ahh I'm starting to salivate thinking about it. Haha..I'm such a fatty at heart.
But due to the unnecessary amount of fat I inhaled today, I didn't feel the need to eat anything else. I just felt so heavy, it was the first time in 2 weeks where I ate a normal portion of food. It was heavenly! LOL anyways good night! <3

Day 15

Hello Everyone!

I'm starting to really see a difference in how I look these past few days:). And most importantly I feel a difference:D. The scale isnt showing me what I want to see, but what is the amount of lbs you weigh really? Just a bunch of numbers, at least that's the way I see it. I could way 300 lbs and not care as long as I look toned and in shape. This is just my opinion, and the way I keep myself motivated. Anyways!

Hello All!

Apologies for the late blog for yesterday I was busy with my mom preparing for a dinner at my house. The whole day I was worried I would mess up with all the amazing food my mom had made, but i managed to do good:)

Food Diary;

-1 orange
-1 apple
-1 boiled egg white
-6 melba crackers
-1 bowl of vegetable soup
-2 mini seekh kebabs

-1 bowl of mixed garden salad

Day 8

Hey all!

I hope everyone's valentine's day was enjoyable. And if you were like me lonely today, just enjoy it while it lasts:P .

So today I saw a decrease again and therefore decided to be lazy on exercise and diet:( . I wasn't too bad just not what I'd normally eat. I did however decide at 11.30pm that I wasn't going to skip on working out. I usually workout first thing in the morning. Since I feel most energetic at that time. And also while doing the turbo jam workouts I don't feel my day's food is returning to my mouth alongside stomach acid. Lol I think that was TMI. Anyways, point is with the days food still not totally digested my workout wasn't anywhere near the normal level of vigourous ness. :( nonetheless I did complete the hour.

Today's food diary:
-1 egg while boiled
-1/2 glass orange juice
-1/2 an apple
-1 bowl of green salad topped with chicken mince meat and chick peas
-1/2 a chicken shawarma

I really didn't need the chicken shawarma since the pita itself contains uneccesary calories. But I guess I should let myself slip here and there. Else I'll just ruin an entire day if I deprive myself. Anyways, good nite !!

Day 7- 1 week down!

Hello All!

Hope everyone's doing well, and an apology for the late post. It's my mom's birthday so the family and I were hanging out.

Anyways, today I'm absolutely exhausted! I spent 40 mins doing the cardio party workout from the turbo jam package and then decided to do the 20mins ab jam disk. And to top it off there was swimming at UTM so i went for 2 hrs and swam laps for 2 hrs on and off. Every muscle in my body hurts! But |I feel exhausted in a good way...if that makes any sense, LOL! On the bright side, its been one week, and I've seen a decrease and lost 6lbs. Hopefully I can continue the pace!

Today's Food Diary;
-1/2 cup of orange juice
-1 boiled egg white
-1 small bowl of lentil soup
-1 green salad
-1 orange
-handful of almonds
-a small plate of chicken mince meat with chickpeas

I stopped counting how many water glasses I drink, including the amount of green tea, so everyone should just assume its the 8 glasses minimum and a 3 cups of green tea.

Happy Valentines Day!

Day 6

Hello,

I'm going to keep it really short today, I have stuff to finish off, and I'm already tired as hell:(

Food Diary;

-1 bowl of green salad (green peppers, romaine lettuce, cucumber)
-1/2 can of tuna
-1 handful of almonds
-1 bowl of vegetable soup
-1/2 a dinner bun

Good night all!

Day 6

Hi All,

I had a bit of a weird day today, I mentioned in a previous blog that I feel alot more energized these days. Last night, I only got 4 hours of sleep though and that NEVER happens, so I was a little concerned about that. So today's been a little bit of a haze, and a weird kind of feeling in my head. I really should be sleeping right now seeing as I want to wake up early tmrw, but just as I was reading to lie down I remembered I hadn't blogged yet. Anyways, I know this is a bit off topic but I went to the see "the vow" in the evening, it was an okay movie, made me tear up a bit but yeah.

Food Diary
-1 boiled egg white
-1/2 cup orange juice
-1 banana
-1 green salad topped with a 1/2 can of tuna
-1 mini tortilla stuffed with chicken and vegetables
-1 apple
-4 cups of green tea, unsweetened and no milk

As for results in terms of numbers, I've noticed a decrease but not enough for me totally satisfied with the results. Let's see where I stand on day 30!

Good nite!

Day 5

Hello,

Today's Day 5, and I have to express that I'm feeling  full of energy. :D I know it's been too short of a while to be able to see a difference in my physically, but I'm feeling much more positively about my current goal. There's a saying back home, " if you take a drop of water out of the sea, you won't be able to tell the difference", lol god know's how many drops it'll take to make a difference in me.

Today's food diary consisted of;
-1 apple
-1 orange
-1 boiled egg white
-1 handful of almonds
-1 bowl of green salad topped with chicken breast
-1 multigrain vegetarian pizza slice
-5 melba crackers with 1 tablespoon of ultra light cream cheese

I know the pizza slice wasn't a good choice,but I've decided I'm going to workout a second time. So I'm going to cut the blog short, before |I get lazy and try to finish another turbofire workout!

Take Care All

Day 4

Hellooo,

Today's Food Diary consisted of,
-1/2 glass orange juice
-1 apple
-3 melba cracker with 1 teaspoon of ultra light creme cheese
-2 green teas with 1/2 a teaspoon of honey in each cup
-green salad
-baked fish fillet
-1 bowl of chicken soup with 4 melba crackers

I did work out today which felt really reviving. Other than that a pretty boring day, with little thoughts to share.  I am however craving bread alot today, hence the excessive melba toast crackers. LOL. But past experience shows me that if I intake carbs into my diet, I generally don't loose weight.
So before I let my temptation overcome me, and I creep downstairs for a midnight toast snack. I'm going to call it a night!

Day 3

Hi...

So I've started to feel a little bit better. I don't feel as bloated as I used to feel, and the 'empty stomach' feeling has started to feel pleasant. I think I had a really good workout today, much better then the last 2 days, I successfully completed the 30 mins workout turbofire dvd without feeling like I was going to collapse in the middle of it. Someone who's pretty health conscious advised me to cut down on the excessive water. And I did read up on it, I'm finding a few doctors claiming it's true. So I'll stick to the 8-9 glasses.

Food Diary-
-1 boiled egg white
-1 kiwi
-1/2 orange juice glass
-salad (cucumbers, green peppers, romaine lettuce, a small cube of grated chedder cheese)
-small bowl of haleem (chicken haleem, lentils blended with chicken, into a thick soup)
-8 glasses of water

If any of you live around me, and feel they want to join me in the turbofire workouts at my house, feel free to let me know! It's actually fun once you get used to it!

Day 2

Hellooo..

So yesterday I got a little caught up in guests coming over and I never got a chance to blog.

Food Diary:
-1 boiled egg white
-1/2 glass orange juice
-1 apple
-fish filet baked
-steamed veggies on the side
-1 10cm square of lasagne...(ok so I just couldn't resist) :$ i did work out double tho!
after the day was done I felt extremely guilty for the piece of lasagne but i had been prepping for it 2 hrs before it finished..but it was soo worthh ittt!

no thoughts that I can remember from yesterday. :$

Day 1

Hellooo,

I think I successfully accomplished day 1. :-) but the start is always easy so maybe I shouldn't speak so soon.
Today's food diary consisted of;
-1/2 a pear
-1 boiled egg white
-1/2 orange juice
-1 big bowl of salad  ; romaine lettuce, green peppers, and cucumbers topped with 1 chicken breast
-1 apple
-1 small bowl of lentil soup
-3 round melba crackers
- I also lost count of how much water I drank, I stopped counting after 10 glasses.

I did make a terrible attempt at starting the turbofire workout today. I didnt realise how long it had been since I'd successfully completed a 30mins workout. My muscles are in so much pain, but all in good reasoning. I also decided I'm going to start drinking green tea, make an attempt to cut out my coffee and tea, no use in the extra sugar and milk in the daily diet. I'm also going to try to cut back on the amount of salt I intake.
Ok, time to call it a night!

Day 0- Someone give me the motivation!

Hi everyone,

So a lot of you will probably be wondering what the heck I'm doing with this blogspot account, and to answer your question it's for "Motivation". For those who've known me a while, you all know I've never been exactly the  girl with the perfect body. I'm on the heavier side and have always been. I've never been skinny, and I don't think I'll be the runway model ever. And I've tried it all! Herbal teas, slimming tablets, lemonade diets, cayenne pepper in water, gross looking and tasting all natural drinks that make you want to gag while consuming them, starvation, slim fast, and just about everything out there I ever heard about. It'd be nice if I could feel confident wearing anything I wanted, without having the constant worry of how many rolls of fat are visible the way I'm sitting at the moment. :$

The one time I actually started loosing a significant amount of weight and keeping it off was when I started regular exercise and healthy eating. But that was all the way in 2009, when my relationship with my now husband had started. I was so motivated to look good and impress! I kept at it for a good 4 months, dropped 2 pants sizes, went from an Xl to L, and had some kick ass confidence levels. But it was like over a week when I lost all the motivation, and landed back where I had started. I started seriously dieting and exercising before I went for my wedding in Nov of last year. I saw results but nothing hitting the standards I wanted. The problem was that once I came back from seeing my husband and having the long waited wedding, I started eating meals like it was the last one I'll ever eat and I haven't exercised properly a single day since my return which was mid November. I guess my biggest motivation in life right now is to look good for my husband and most importantly for myself.  I know how good loosing a few pounds feels, I have a good 2.5 years until the paper work comes through, and that's more then enough time to have a slow and effective weight loss journey, or so I hope!

I'm planning on starting my low carb diet from tomorrow and the turbofire workout dvds. I'm hoping by starting this blog, I'll be alot more motivated to keep going, since I'll regularly blogging I'll have a guilty conscious when I do slack on the exercise or loose the motivation to eat healthy. I'm going to be blogging a food diary for each day. 

So tonight being the 5th of Febuary 2012, I'm going to try to start back onto that from tomorrow! Currently, I'm at the point where I don't feel like looking in the mirror. But I'm hoping to change that by next week sunday night. So that's my goal for this week, to be able to look in the mirror and not see my face looking like a watermelon with 2 eyes, 1 nose and a pair of lips!

Goodbye unhealthy food I shall miss thee!
