I feel a bit better but not fantastic. I didn't go to kickboxing either tuesday or wednesday but am playing squash today so we'll see how that goes. I slept until 12 today so I must have needed it but I still feel tired so will take it a bit easy ( Read more... )

It's definitely important to get the right balance of food and exercise, although I do understand that it can be difficult to get out of your current mindset.

I hope you you manage to find that right balance soon :)

thanks, I've bought steak for dinner and am looking forward to it with relatively little guilt so I'm getting there.

Ash, please have a look at your diet and eat more - you don't have to eat 'guilty' foods to eat more and put on weight - I know that, I've been in your position myself. Except, well, let's just say mine was diagnosed. Jacket potatoes are good - they help you bulk up and are healthy. I've known you 8 years now and you've never been big... and the size you now are is scary to me. I care about you. If you need to talk, ring me - 07797 887774 or 01534 638895

On a lighter note - I think my gf would rival you for the biggest Bad Girls Fan title.

thanks, I really am trying to eat more. I know it won't happen just like that but I need to get out of this cycle. I bought steak of dinner - ok, I admit I stood in the shop for nearly 20 minutes trying to find the steak with the least fat content but it's a start.

Yeah it is. But I meant what I said, if you feel the need to chat, ring me.... any time.

i seem to be becoming more and more obsessive with my weight lately. i think my mates are starting to notice too. i don't exercise though. i'm sure that if i did, then i'd eat more. i'm lazy, so i tell myself either exercise OR restrict calories. so i restrict. i feel guilty if i eat more than once a day (with the exception of a diet coke and apple for lunch). i don't think i have a problem, i just need some kind of regulatory and control over what i eat, because i can eat and eat until it makes me sick (i don't think my brain and stomach are connected, i usually cant tell when i'm full or have had enough!)

I know what you mean, the trouble with me is I need to eat, I'm sure if I could do what you did and eat just once a day I would but I turn into a psycho bitch if I don't eat and it's just not worth it. I do eat a fair bit, I just won't eat anything with more than a few grams of fat in it. I know if I'm doing all this exercise I need some fat in my diet but the thought of eating something really fatty just puts the fear of god into me.

I think I've got it right in a way, the combination of diet and exercise is a good one, it's just that I've taken it a bit to extremes. If I could eat a little bit more and exercise a little bit less I'd be fine.

And from what I've seen of you you really don't need to lose weight, you look fantastic!
