Day 29-Almost day 30!

Cor dear! wat can I say! it's the day before the last day and this sure has been a thoughtful 29days it really shows me that whatever I set my mind to I can achieve I can do whatever I want.! it wasn't easy at times sure it wasn't but the fact that I've almost done it makes me smile.
My back is in some serious pain for some strange reason and I don't understand why..I'm hoping it's because aunt flow is visiting soon but for the life of me it feels quite uncomfatable. Well today UWI offered me a job and I will reveiw the contract this afternoon and make my decision. I go to England tommorrow and I can't wait.! I'm tired I need a break I also need to connect with Andrew I need some time out of this place.
I need to gather thoughts feelings etc.
Weight loss arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I thought I would have done alot better but to be honest I'm very happy with my results and will continue to push myself until I reach my ideal goal weight of 145/50 ..I certainly intend to get to 150 by Paula's wedding on the 10th May that's one month day. My current weight has stayed the same the whole week I havn't lossed anything this morning the scales said 162lbs so my aim for 159 by tommorrow didn't go as planned anyhow I've lost a total of 17lbs which is certainly better than nothing and I can feel the difference..eveyone has told me so too. I't just the Andrew verdict that I await!
So I won't be logging in tommorrow coz I'll be flying out so it will will have to wait until Wednesday when I'm in England and will find the computer to do just that logg my day 30!

Day 26

FOUR DAYS TO GO! arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
feeling on top of the world only a few days to end of 30days and until I get on that flight and hit the UK for 15days..well not exactly 15days but hey!

Well this mornings arobic session at the gym I felt a little light and tired and I know for sure that going beyond the 30days on juice and still working out should not be considered. I honestly believe that if I continued on this fast I would not be able to work out and continue as I have been. I really thank God for his mercy and strength throughout this time.

I can't wait to munch on that ripe avocado and cherry tomatoes and humous..ummmmmmm all from TEsco's....
Yummmmmmmmmyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

DAY 25-5days to go!

Hello hello Hello! it's day 25 cor dear. I didn't blog yesterday couldn't make it felt so out of it had to take the day off and heal my body. Really felt fuzzed out and literally exhausted!
I thought the last days were supposed to get easier...Not likely it seems.
The bloody scales say a loss of only 1lb or is it 2lb well I know it's not allot and this is a week so my weight loss seems to have slowed down unless I get a miraculous loss over the next five days to take me under 160 I would be very happy. Had to have some brother on Tuesday night my stomach was in some pain and physically I really was gone. So I had a sachet of strained soup..ha ha! tasted way too salty though.
Decided that I am going to buy a bike whilst I'm in London and cycle everywhere well at least one /two hours a day as the gym won't be open. And if I can get a bike for the same price as the gym membership then y not.
So yesterday felt like crap physically...I'm feeling happy that I am in the last days of this 30day and for real I am excited to finish but at the same time nervous. I'm going to have avocado with tomatoes ummmmmm! First few days soup though.
Nothing but raw and soup. I must tell you that I have to have a matar paneer whilst I'm there. Oh yes for my hard work and commitment I decided to treat myself to a ring...(walkers world) and I love it..!
Anyhow bye for now

5days left!

Yipppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Day 23

This is another day and for the life of me I feel better than I did yesterday because it's a day closer to seeing my boo and of course it's a day closer to the 30day mark! yippeeeeedodah.
Errol called me bones this morning at the gym and I must admit when I looked in the mirror I did kinda see myself looking slim in a funny sort of way. I had on my little black shorts and a black top..ha ha wat a ting!
Never thought I could be looking as slim as I think I do now but I'm still far from my 145lbs infact a little over 20lbs to reach my target weight. That's if I'm calculating incorrectly. Nah seriously I'm 162/4 so less than 20lbs to go okay yes 19 infact..big deal I could as well said 20. Anyhow so today is a new day and a day closer.

Well worked out mega hard although I must admitt I couldn't wait to the finish the 1hr cardio I was begining to get bored okay so maybe my legs were somewhat tired also. Went back to the gym last night bloody killed it (as usual) and went to bed without having a shower yuck! of course couldn't sleep properly at all woke up a little before 4am had a shower then headed off to the gym again for my two hour workout. Boy oh boy will the rest of life be like this meaning will I continue to be at the gym at 5am up at 4.15am? or will it just be until I get down to my goal and then all I have to do is maintain the loss and that won't mean killing myself as I do right? I dont' know somthing tells me that this really is going to be Diana's way of life from now on. I love my cycling and plan to do a lovely long ride this Sunday as it's my last one for two weeks.

This juicing has really been amazing and It's going to be difficult to just come off and go back to normal eating well I certainly don't plan to go on MY NORMAL eating anyway I plan to be very careful about what I eat. I can't go back to 199lbs no way. The next time I plan to be overweight is when I am pregnant and no other time. For the first time in a while I think I've mastered my weight issue. I really do feel great about what I'm doing with my bodyevery time I think about how far I've come I just want to scream and say yes!
But you know what if I can do it then anyone can ..no it's not easy and yes it takes committment and of course dedication and hard hard work but it can be done...and I'm proof of that!

Later!

Day 22-8days left

Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! is that really 8days left? is it is it is it...? oh shoot yes it is.. 8days to get down 7lbs at least. I must get under the 160 mark must must must! I weighed in this morning at 162/4lb (hard to read my scale sometimes) so if I loose 7lbs this week (which I will) then I'll be under! that means some serious sh*t! didn't plan on going to the gym this evening but at this rate if I want this 7lbs off then I need to get back down there this evening for 5.30.
Anyhow weekend was pretty okay although I must admitt I had mints and went over board on them. This sugar craving really has to go man. I'm not going to let it get the better of me. No way!
I've only got 8days left and come on the last days are always the hardest right? but by the grace of God I will finish this. And achieve my results.
It really has been a wonderful experience I feel so much in control of my eating and I've been so good!.
I'm pleased with myself and think I deserve a prezzie when I get to England don't you?

later!
