Low carb. Puhh-huh.

Well I tried to go low carb for a few days. I failed spectacularly, but not only that, it felt so un-natural to me. And as such I felt like everything was a chore. I lost a bit of the umph I had, and I felt like I was on "a diet" as opposed to eating sensibly. Also after those 2 days when I admitted defeat, it took me a while to get back into my way of thinking.

That's not to say I won't cook any more low carb meals. But telling myself I am going low carb all day... that adds in a little extra something that makes it difficult to do. I've had a couple of weeks setback, but I am hovering around the 12 stone 4lb mark, I will most likely not reach 12 stone by March, but I am hoping to get close, and either way I think I will do my best to get back into my old rhythm. I'll get back on track.

I have to, because I have no desire to stay in size 16s. I want to pass through size 14s as quickly as is safely possible. I am fitting some size 14 clothes, which I find amazing, although I have been having a negative body vibe lately. Feeling that my arms are too wobbly, that my thighs are too huge, my belly too saggy. But at the same time, I see my reflection when clothed and think wow, I have a waistline. Wow, my boobs actually stick out over my belly.

My mini goal is still in place, although I think it's a huge challenge to complete it in time now, but we shall see how well I can do. Either way I am not losing sight of the final goal posts. I can still do it by summer, I just have to stay determined. And by completing each mini-sprint, I can complete the marathon.
