TGIF

Thank goodness it's Friday!
 
So can't wait till it's the weekend!  Only problem is I'm out for lunch and dinner today although I will try and make healthy choices I'm not going to beat myself up too much about it - these changes are for life so they have to fit in with my lifestyle!
 
Hope you all have great days, I'd better do some work!

Learning to say no.

I have a problem with saying no.  To food.  And others.
 
I'm working on both.  Food you know about but does anyone else feel like they spend their life doing things/going places they don't want to because they just can't say those two letters N.O.
 
I'm trying!
 
That's really all for today work up this morning with a sore head so I think I'll take myself off the computer and get some fresh air before I start work!
 
Hope you all have a great day!

Feeling Positive!

Thanks to everyone who commented or sent me messages welcoming me to Extrapounds, I really appreciated it!
 
So day 2 and feeling positive so far.  I have decided that I'm going to try and update my blog every morning when I get into work.  I'm here before everyone else so I'll have peace to update it without fear of co-workers looking over my shoulder!  I'd like to keep my blog private for now so please excuse my lack of photos or anything too personal!
 
Plan for today is eat healthy - melon for breakfast, baked potato for lunch and pasta bake for dinner.  No Snacks!  I should say I'm following the Slimming World diet here in the UK - I think most of you are from the US, do you have Slimming World over there?
 
Hope you all have good days!

Starting out!

Hi everyone at Extrapounds!
 
Feel a bit strange starting out on this blog as I've never done it before but I came across this site a few weeks ago and have been reading through others blogs wishing I was more focused, more motivated and making real progress like you all are!
 
So here I am.  I'm a 30-something from the UK who has struggled with my weight al my life.  I'm currently about 3 stone (40lb or so) lighter than my record heaviest but the weight has crept up about 2 stone since I got married 6 months ago and I'm struggling!   I love my food and to be quite frank about it sometimes it feels like my only pleasure in life (well of course except my hubby).  I'm also a real emotional eater for example last week I had been really good but a bad day at work sent me into a spiral of 5 days binge eating and I'm back up the 4lb I had lost!
 
So anyway here I am.  I'm hoping that blogging about my weightloss or problems in general will stop me turning to food.  I just need to make time to keep up the blog, life always seems to get in the way!
 
Enough rambling for now!  Look forward to chatting to you all as my new journey commences!
