yesterday was lovely, my daughter really enjoyed swimming and so everyone else did and we had a really lovely day together.
something
went wrong with my pedometer yesterday i walked over 10k. but it
somehow reset around the 9k mark, so here are the stats that i was left
with:
2256 steps, 1.35km 6768kcal.
im really hoping that my
watch arrives soon so i can have a back up, but the guy who sold it said
it'd arrive within 20-40 days - boo!
taking my little lexi to a
local park today, eastrop. there they have 3 ponds/ paddling pools, one
for little ones to play in, 1 for boats and 1 for fish, theres also a
pond and a big-ish park for the little ones. lexi loves it there.
and
i didn't get round to doing the C25K last night as the night before i
got about 2hours sleep, and me and my daughter both slept for 12 hours
straight last night. it was bliss. then i woke up to her crying because
she had taken off her nappy and had diarrheoa all over her cot.
the joys of being a mother
C25k will be completed later tonight and stats will be uploaded tomorrow.
1 day left on SDD can't wait :)

SDD day 21
every friday me, my daughter my friend emma and her little boy
swimming, theres about 2 months between them, he was born on 31st of
december 2011 and she was born on the 12th of february 2012. the boy
love sit but lexi isn’t too keen, its ‘mumma mumma noooooooooo’ every 2
minutes as shes afraid she’ll get dunked or if i lay back in the water
that somethings happened to me. we’re hoping in time she’ll start ti
enjoy it because at the moment everyone else loves it, and swimming is a
great workout.
last night again, i couldn’t sleep so i was looking up 30 day challenges. i’ve had it in my head for awhile since i saw the squat challenge, and since i’ve started running and am really enjoying it, i guess i should do some squats to strengthen up my legs etc. i found 6 challenges that look good, for a lot of them i had no idea what they were, so they were cancelled out quite quickly. but i found squat, crunch, plank, lean arms, push ups and thigh pyramid. i was thinking of starting the squat challenge when i start the 30 days shred in about a week, from what i remember of the shred there is a lot of squatting work, and exercising to build up your legs.
i feel sick after everytime i take the drops, so i know now that they don’t agree with me, i’ve been on the drops 3 weeks now, and everytime the sick feeling comes back. after these next two days i think thats the end for good of me and the drops.
my stats from yesterday using the pedometer were:
5689 steps, 170.67 calories burnt, 3.14km
so on average i’m walking about 3km a day without doing extra fitness such as the C25K, which is quite good but could be better, and hopefully will get so. day 3 of week 2 of the C25K will be completed tonight and results will be posted tomorrow.

SDD day 20 - C25K week 2 day 2
last night i completed week 2 day 2 of the C25K, i struggled a bit and my pace was slower than it was the night before, but i still didn’t walk when i was meant to be running, which i’m insanely proud of 
.
using ped here are my results:
before completing the c25k (what i did during the day)
3889 steps, 116.67kcal burnt, 2.33km
results from doing the C25K
3877 steps, 116.31kcal burnt, 2.32km
overall results from the day
7766 steps, 232.98kcal, 4.65km
because my pace was slower my results are lower than they were last time, so i fell just under the 5k mark from both day 1 +day 2 of week 2 put together, which is a bit disappointed but oh well. when i next do the shred tomorrow evening, i will have smashed the 5k a week target and be well on the way to hitting running 20k in a month target.
today was also weigh in day, i’ve lost 2lbs over this week, which isn’t too bad considering i haven’t monitered my intake in any way except noting that my appetite has decreased. i’m now down to 13st 9lb, so only 3st 9lb to go before i hit my target and then i have the fun task of maintain that weight!
decided i need to buy some running shoes! and i’ve found a really snazzy pair on ebay for only a fiver, yes i’m cheap. my pedometer was only £5.99. i would love a fitbit pedometer but i can’t justify the expense of them just to calculate my calorie loss etc when my £5.99 one works great and that i’ve already fallen in love with. i’ve also purchased a watch pedometer, again only a fiver, to help measure my daily exercise and the C25K seperately.
on another not only 3 more days of SDD left. i’m really looking forward to ditching this diet. i feel like it hasn’t done anything for me and was a bit of a waste of money. but we’ll see. i’ve heard that sometimes the inches and weight fall off a couple of days after you finish a diet or exercise programme as your body stores more fat to help repair muscle, at least with exercise! that will be interesting to see.
after the SDD diet is finished, i’m leaving it a couple of days before i start the 30 day shred to get my body back to normality.

SDD day 19 - C25K week 2 day 1
last night i completed the 1st day of the 2nd week of the C25K. i keep surprising myself with how much i actually enjoy running now. the last time i ran was in school in a P.E. class and i hated it. it was horrible having to watch people beating you at every sporting event i tried (except javelin, i was queen of that exercise). i think seeing other people do better than me continuely was what ruined running for me, what’s fun about pushing yourself so hard you can’t breathe properly to be beaten anyway? whereas with the C25K its me on my own, going at a pace that is right for me.
according to my little pedometer whose come everywhere with me for the past 2 days, during the half hour of the C25K, half of which was scheduled walking, i took 4009 steps, burnt 120.27 calories and travelled 2.40k. considering that this is week 2 i’m already doing half of a 5k, and if i ran for the full 20mins i’m sure i could hit 5k in half hour, but i’m not at that level yet, its baby steps for now and sticking religiously to the C25K programme.
my drops have been taken and i’m feeling good! i woke up really hungry this morning, but after reading a runners blog yesterday, i realised i could be confusing what i thought was hunger pangs with dehydration. and sure enough after a lot of water i felt amazing again. the sick feeling has finally gone but today the weather has been terrible, raining and windy, my kind of weather. rather than the 20c it was yesterday, so it could be the heat messing up my body.
completing day 2 of the second week of the C25K tonight, and will also be weighing myself
results will be posted tomorrow.
4 more days left on the SDD diet and then for a month i can focus purely on exercising

SDD day 18
not too much to report today. feeling really sick latelt.
it was very bad last night, didn’t sleep until 2 i felt so rough. and i was planning to do the c25k last night but doing it tonight instead as starting to feel better slowly.
today it hit 20c, it hasn’t been this hot in england in about a year. so i’m probably just reacting badly to the climate changing.
SDD diet is going well. mostly lost my appetite so hopefully this week will bump up my total weight-loss of 3lbs haha. only 53 more lbs to go :p
i found this little gem awhile ago, i may start it in a couple of weeks, it will be interesting to see if it works. although thankfully i will not be posting pictures of my derriere all over the internet
i also bought a pedometer today so i can keep track of how many calories are burnt throughout the weeks of the c25k. really getting into fitness lately. i hope i don’t lose this drive!

SDD day 17 - C25K day 3 week 1
itching to do the 30 day shred again! I've been torturing myself by
looking at before and after pictures of other women who've completed it.
I got halfway through the shred last year before I gave up. this was mainly due to not being able to accurately measure my body. so this time instead of measurements i'll be taking before and after pics and disgust you all with my hideous belly!
a good motivator I've decided on, is getting a side tattoo done. I've already got an incomplete one on my foot of my daughters name, I refuse to show off my body anywhere in public because I think it's hideous so i'm hoping losing weight will make it easier for me to get it done.
I write in this lovely little note book everyday before I update my blog. I take it with me everywhere, its my little blog book. I needed something to help me focus on more and give me a little sense of achievement each day so I won't get bored with my current diet/ fitness programme, and a friend suggested making a little sticker chart like a lot of people used to have in school, and its working! its really empty at the moment but I can't wait to fill it up :)
seeing as though my start to the shred is just over a week away, I also ordered some weight stuffs and my own new scales :D
I completed day 3 of the first week of the C25K last night so that's now the first week done and dusted :D sweated buckets this time, but I did run more than before (jogged the first 2 times), and as a another motivator I decided to look at the races up and coming in my area, there are none that i'll be ready for. *boo*
the drops seem to be making me hungry and lately my acid reflux is worse than normal, hoping their not connected but if they are, only 6 more days to go, appetite still hasn't come back, doesn't help that my daughters decided to be a little monkey and not like me eating in front of her.

SDD day 16
feeling good! but the type of feeling good that exercise brings.
it doesn't feel like the drops are doing anything for me, oh well, they've got a week left to change their game around and surprise me!
I didn't get round to doing the c25k last night, so it'll be completed late tonight instead and then my first week will be done :).
in the meantime, im picking up my daughter after a night round her dads and then onto revision!
ten exams in the next month or so! the fun of politics, economics and law! I sound like so much fun listing my subjects haha.

SDD Day 15 - C25K Day 2 Week 1
I lost most of my appetite yesterday, not too sure why, the drops can't just be starting to work, can they?
I was in such an energetic mood last night I ended up doing day 2 of the first week of the C25K. and again I really enjoyed it! its not too challenging yet, but its still not too easy. I didn't walk in any of the running sections again which I am really happy about, hopefully building up a foundation ready for 30ds. I want to complete day 3 either tonight or tomorrow evening as then I can start week 2 right at the beginning of the week and have a whole week to complete it in.
today and yesterday I've found that its getting a rather big pain trying to remember to take the drops, i'm not too good at sticking to diets and exercise regimes because I get bored easily, but I promised myself I would finish this diet and I will! only 8 days left :)
I've been very active lately, doing the c25k two nights running as well as taking my dogs on massive walks because my dads got the 'man flu'. all this exercise is a shock to the system, but by not having any aches and pains i'm going to guess it's a good one :D

SDD day 14 - C25K Day 1, Week 1
after i posted last night i decided to do the c25k programme last night, and i completed the whole way through .
i really enjoyed it, had to run and walk around my living room though, as daughter was in bed and didn’t want to unsettle her to take her on a run with me. only a light sweat compared some workouts i’ve done previously. and didn’t stop once, although some of the walking did end up walking round the room, picking up my daughters stuff etc.
in the morning i felt brilliant, no aches or pains at all. really looking forward to doing th day 2!
something i didn’t realise about the app but it saves the day you completed on the day, and then calculates your rest days and when you are next due to run, how smart! can’t wait to use it again.
i’m still taking my drops, recovered from the dissiness but still quite ill, looking forward to the end now, getting bored of the drops, only 9 more days to go , and haven’t missed a single one.
itching to start another new diet or exercise programme

SDD day 13
feeling really dizzy. it started last night when i was stuck awake with acid reflux (BOO!) and didn’t go but i did eventually manage to fall asleep. sadly in the morning had to take a few pills, due to really bad sinuses (always effected when the climate changes )
in the morning i was determined to stick to the 500 cal diet.
i consumed 177 cal for breakfast and had 500ml of water alongside it, then an apple as a snack between breakfast and lunch, and well things completely went down hill at 11.
i had a friend call me up in tears because she’d falled her driving test, we ended up having a girlie day (ice cream included ), and ended up getting her, her tattoo done. it was a ridiculously bad start to the 500 cal diet. really do not think this diet is for me. but i’m going to see it to the end, only 10 more days left!!
it was weighing day today, and i’m now 13st 11oz, so i’ve lost 3lb in about a week and considering i haven’t followed the diet, pretty pleased with that loss regardless.
to top today off i’m now losing my voice, it hurts to talk and when i do it comes out as a croak. so not a good day!
going to start the c25k in the next couple days as it was my back up looking forward to it. starting to miss exercising.

SDD day 12
today was another fat day, and its getting me down that i haven’t lost much even though i’ve already done 12 days, but i haven’t been following the 500 cal diet a day on the facebook group, relying instead on my own normally healthy diet. so from tomorrow, i will be sticking to the 500 cal a day diet. not looking forward to it but looking forward to the weight loss.
i am also going to start the couch to 5k programme that is available for downloads on smart phones in a couple of days. hoping that that will help to boost my weightloss. more details on the C25K programme can be found on an upcoming page on this blog.
today there wasn’t any hunger but i did see a friend i haven’t seen in awhile and went to lunch with them, it was big, but in my defence filled with fruit etc. but tomorrow is the start of my new intense SDD diet. gulp.
wish me luck.

SDD day 11
such a good mood from yesterday! not happy with my body yet but happy that its changing! its actually strange how good i’m feeling.
today was a day full of filling out forms and finally got round to accepting my university offers, applying for student finance etc. really looking forward to university, its going to be a fresh start, just me, my little girl and my boyfriend, one of the changes that i feel i need to make is losing weight ready for september, i’m sick of being this big and want to be small for a change.
anyway, back to the drops. same routine as before, took my drops after waking up hungry, hunger stayed until lunch time then went afterwards and after second lot the hunger came back. its now the new norm feeling hungry like this!
enjoying the diet but i am looking forward to the end of it. only 12 more days to go and then i’m starting a new fitness thing

SDD day 10
well last night was interesting, spent a lot of time looking at the websites that claim that the SDD are fake, a scam etc. people really need to be told the good points and the bad points before embarking on this diet.
a lot of people are saying that they got the drops tested in a lab, yet they all came up with completely different things, which in it’s own way stops you doubting the drops as much when you realise this.
last night i also saw someone post about how their son was in hospital with luekeamia and she wanted to know if she could eat hospital food without it affecting her diet. all i have to say is get your priorities right!
today seems like a good day, although i now feel huge. oh well onlu 13 more days left on the drops to go. slightly hungry in the morning but nothing major.
well whether i’m losing weight or not, i’m losing inches. so happy to be finally losing my baby weight!
brought some new clothes with my friend today, i’m a size 14 but decided to try some size 12 clothes and use them as a motivator, they might be snug but their on. last month i couldn’t even fit into size 14 trousers feeling great!

SDD day 9
today was a lovely thin day, i felt amazing when i got up! although hungry again. hunger disappeared at lunch when i’ve got to admit i did pig out! but in my defence i didn’t eat breakfast and haven’t eaten dinner to make up for it.
even before lunch i felt drained and that contiuned for the rest of the day. luckily my little lady was at her dads so i had sometime to sleep rather than being run ragged by her.
And unluckily she wasn’t a happy baby when she came home and just wanted to sleep even refused dinner (which is major for her!) we fell asleep at 7 together and i’ve only just woken up and still feel like rubbish hopefully day 10 will be different. only 14 more days to go!!!

SDD day 8
scarily starting to turn into something i used to hate before having my daughter, a calorie counter! before i could never get my head round it! now i know its actually quite useful for losing weight!
busy day today! every weekend is a constant run around trying to see everyone i haven’t seen in awhile and have catch-ups with them.
it being a busy day, i expected to feel hungry throughoutbut surprisingly didn’t. not even when i woke up! this really is a rare occurance kinda looking forward to weighing day again!

its officially been a week since i started the secret diet drops! i’m rather amazed that i haven’t actually missed a single drop yet.. yet being the operative word of course. 16 days to go!
ive started to notice a pattern in the way that the drops work, after not eating after the final drops of the day i end up ravenous in the mornings and when i take the drops the hunger intensifies. and every time after taking the drops within ten minutes the hunger is back. and normally the dizziness comes about an hour after each dose of the drops.
can’t wait till the end of this diet. i took my daughter and her friend swimming again today. officially knackered. so..
night!

SDD day 6
hungry hungry hungry!!!
but on a brighter note, only 4 more days before I expected to see a difference in my body, today actually turned out alright, not too hungry after the horrible wake up pangs of hunger. still felt hungry but it was the kind of hungry that is easily ignored when you have things to do.
uh oh. I weighed myself
i’m the heaviest ive ever been at 14 stone. I started seeing someone awhile back now, and he weighs ten stone, got 4 to lose to just match him . having a thin boyfriend sucks!
but I will do this! I will lose weight! first the secret diet drops and then onto Jillian Michael’s 30 day shred. that woman knows her stuff!
doing a diet then an exercise plan and then a diet, so i’m not constantly working out or starving. hope this works!
let me know if you have anything for me to try!

SDD day 5
it feels weird after a few days of waking up hungry to wake up feeling fine. not feeling hungry hasn’t happened in a couple of days haha. i feel i need to say something about one of the major promoters for the diet drops, facebook. https://www.facebook.com/groups/457480994307772/?fref=ts this is one of the official sites of the diet drops. there was an argument between the admins and the dieters today about why the admins deleted so many non-abusive posts, some were just skeptical of the drops, yet were deleted in seconds. and in one post there was an argument that lasted over 100+ comments and in it the admins seemed silly, and to be honest not very bright. one kept saying the same thing over and over even though she had 4 different people answer her question every time. i feel that that kind of behaviour from an official group is disgusting, people should be given the chance to see the pros and cons before making their decision about whether to use the drops, not just the exaggerrated pros. and thats what this blog will be, an honest account of what happened during my fitness journey.
anyway, back to today. the hunger came back after the second does of the drops. this isn’t a nice feeling. feeling hollow all evening. i had dizzy speels today and yesterday. so everyone should be sure to check with their GP or doctor before they take the drops because it doesn’t take much for something to disagree with you even if you have nothing physically or mentally wrong with you.

SDD day 4
well today i awoke feeling ridiculously hungry, even after a decent meal the night before which would normally do me until lunch, i was starving. but then again, i normally sleep all night, last night i was up most of it with a sick 1 year old who didnt want to sleep unless it was in mummies bed. no matter what i ate i couldn’t get rid of the hunger, it finally went after lunch yet after dinner i felt ravenous again even after eating a full meal. not sure what it is these drops are doing to me but being constantly hungry is getting to be a bit of a bummer.
SDD day 3
i woke up feeling great again but this time rather than feeling normal throughout the day, i started to feel really hungry, even though i haven’t eaten any less than what i usually do i still don’t feel all that great. i’m assuming i was burning calories as it was the same kind of hungry you get from a really good workout. and even after eating i still didn’t feel full or even satisfied, so i think the drops are working in some weird kind of way. i think its time to break the promise i made to myself about not weighing, as soon as i get the chance i’ll be weighing and measuring myself, and the measurements will be posted online, *gulp*, definitely no pictures i’m afraid. i’ll also break the rule another 2 times. one time at day 11 and then again at the end of day 23. really hoping to see a difference in my body by then. can’t wait.
SDD day 2
so its the second day of the SDD and i have taken them religiously but feel no change. but oh well, only 8 more days before i said that i would expec to see a change. i’ve got to admit though i felt amazing when i woke up this morning. only 21 more days to go!
SDD day 1
my secret diet drops arrived yesterday.
today was my first day of the diet out of 23.
i didn’t weigh myself as promised
but i haven’t felt a change in my body, which i expected.
i didn’t expect to see a change in the body until around day 10, like with most diets.
i’ve decided not to limit what i am eating. as this was the whole point for me for starting the drops.
i want to eat what i want when i want.
although i will be exercising regularly.
i take my daughter and her friend swimming every week and taking two 1 year olds swimming is a very good workout!
i’ll also be rejoining the gym when she next goes over to her fathers.
i guess i should give a little bit of background information
i’m 18 years old. full time student at college, and i am a lone parent.
my daughters father and i broke up when she was between 2 and 3 months for various reasons.
i intend to either go on to university or go back to full time work.
well i’ll keep you updated!

Secret Diet Drops, ready and waiting?
two days ago I ordered a bottle of the secret diet drops. they are 100%natural and are apparently amazing. women were saying how in just 1 week they had lost almost a stone. from the reviews I have looked at it hasn't gotten a range of reviews, mostly good. my daughter is 14 months old and I have yet to lose my baby weight. just before she was conceived I was the smallest I'd ever been and I was loving it.
im currently a size 14-16 on bottoms and tops. my aim is to drop 3 dress sizes in time for my daughters 2nd birthday and christening 12/02/2014.
however although I really want to lose the weight I don't want to loss my curves, but that's the price us big girls have to pay for becoming small :(.
so as soon as my bottle arrives, I'm starting to use the secret diet drops and hopefully I'll be able to share with you all my step by step diet success story. for me, its more about losing inches rather than weight, so there won't be a great deal of weighing involved I'm afraid.
