Dammit

I weighed myself again today, it is almost like its completely unconscious, I'm not even aware I'm doing it, and then its too late. This is really ridiculous, I cannot even go a day without stepping on the scales. I am trying, really I am, but I just feel massively out of control when I don't weigh myself.

Today has been successful, around 800-900 calories, did not do any exercise though, as I'm still feeling a bit under the weather after yesterday, must have a bug of some sort. Was on my feet in work for 6 hours though, so hopefully burnt a little bit. I'm feeling really shattered tonight, my bed is calling...

One week down...

So it has been a week since I turned Vegan and a week since I cut out bad food (cake, bsicuits, crisps etc) and to be honest it has been a pretty good week, after the hellish weeks of the past few months.

My average calorie intake has been 1000, which is a little high, but for the first week I can deal with that, I'll try and get it down to around 800 this week.

I've done pretty well with my veganism, I had one day when I really struggled and felt exhausted, but I've felt fine mostly, and have stuck to it really well on the whole. I have to go food shopping and stock up on vegan food though. I'm finding it difficult because I live with my mum and dad, and they've always been very accepting of my vegetarianism, but I have yet to tell them about turning vegan, I feel I will get a very negative response.

Ive exercised for at least half an hour every day, mostly wii fit as due to the snow and ice it is to dangerous to walk, let alone run anywhere, so I'm burning off around 100 cals. a day. I would like this to be higher, and once I can commence running again, it will be, although the bad weather apparently is set to last for another 6 weeks! Britain will be at an utter stand still by that point.

I'm attempting to give up weighing myself everyday, and finding it very hard, I really want to step on the scales, but I know it's for the best if I don't...Anyway week 1 down, onto a successful week 2.

Must Stop Weighing Myself Several times a day

Right, I have had enough, I cannot take continuously looking at the scales and seeing the same weight.

I am giving up my love affair with the scales, and I refuse to use them any more than once a week.

This is going to be extremely difficult for me as I am usually on them several times daily, so I'm just going to take it one day at a time, and avoid them, as I feel like they are really holding me back.

Goodbye scales, see you on the 13th.
