🐱👤Dieting Ninjas - Prepare your battle plan!🐱👤

🐱👤Dieting Ninjas - Prepare your battle plan!🐱👤


Edited from a thread I started on www.rosemaryconley.com

I measured myself today and from 15 years ago my:

Waist - 12 inches [30.48 cm] (that's 1 foot!!) larger, 
Chest - 10 inches [25.4 cm] larger, 
Each thigh - 4 inches [10.16 cm] larger, 
Each knee - 5 inches [12.7 cm] larger, 
Hips are about 10 inches larger [25.4 cm]  

all in all I have gained: 

3 stone [19.05kg42lb]

plus

MASSIVE 50 inches [4.16 ft/127 cm]  I'm only 5'2" [158 cm

Time for action - dieting 🐱👤ninjas🐱👤 are you ready?

What are YOU going to do to get back on track?

What am I going to do to get back on track?
Plan, plan, plan! I am in a battle with the bulge and battles always need planning! No point going to attack something if there is no reconnaisance (reccy) - so I must think about the foods which make me feel yuck! They may make me feel good as I'm eating them - but do I remain feeling good? Crisps - I love them, but I have found they make me desperately thirsty and headachy so forget those yummy little potato rounds - they are the enemy in disguise 1f63e - infiltrators! 
Think - when do I eat junk? Why do I eat it? - generally when I'm in work, on a break, I've not planned for my break so I buy a large bag of crisps! I also eat junk when I'm feeling miserable or upset/tired etc. 
There may be more we could address, but for now the reccy is over - now for strategic planning!

Have I any dinner dates coming up?
Is there anything which could hinder my dieting efforts (should I be calling it a diet or should I call it a lifestyle change)

OK if there is anything coming up which can hinder ones weight loss - don't think - Oh no I'm going to fail today - think - I know I'll eat more this day, but I have a plan of action in place. Don't worry about the dinner I'm going to, I'll get back on track the following day! Why is it - we know we are going out, yet we go in with the attitude of failure (before we even get to the party/dinner etc). Go in KNOWING you WILL eat more, but don't get disheartened, one day isn't going to make a huge difference - make a plan for the following day and beyond!

If you know there is someone's birthday in work and they will be bringing in yummy cream cakes - plan strategically! Know what you are going to say to refuse them! I don't eat gluten or dairy and everyone knows that so they don't offer me cakes - they apologise profusely  because I can't have any, but I see that as a good thing (not having any, not people apologising because I can't have any lol)! Don't give in just because someone says - "Go on! One won't hurt!"  

So come on fellow 🐱👤ninjas🐱👤 - let's get into action! 

Have a fab day

PS this (on my computer)🐱👤 looks like a ninja cat, but on your phones etc it may look like a normal cat - thought I would explain because you might think I've totally and utterly cracked - well ummmmmmm! 1f60b
