The Proctrastinator

I am a procrastinator. It's a terrible quality that seems to creep into various aspects of my life. I'm the girl who started a blog then posted nothing on it for a few weeks...that ends now.
For the past few weeks I've been doing two things mainly - working and focusing on my diet. Somewhere in between that I've managed to see friends, fawn over my nephew and give loads of TLC to the lovely man I call my boyfriend. See I procrastinate but I'm a multi tasker :-)

The diet experience has been an interesting one considering the fact that I've gone most of my life eating whatever the hell I want. I'd not eaten any decent vegetables in over a decade (some mean bastard made it their job to point out that chips aren't veggies), I also generally don’t drink water- for years I told myself that the taste made me want to gag, so gin was always a better option (it's clear).

Fast forward to many creamy pasta dinner and fried chicken meals washed down with fizzy drinks, wine and almost anything alcoholic and I was looking and feeling like a mess. I had a meltdown in front of the boyfriend when my jeans wouldn’t fit and from that moment on, I decided that I will not be the chubby girl in summer... so started operation Summer Bunny.

No carbs (blasphemous I know), no sugar and veggies with every meal. The night before i was due to start, I did what any self respecting girl would do, I are everything in sight and drank wine directly from the bottle (okay I do this all the time but you get the point)

I was moody for a week, had no libido for a week (this alone made it tempting for me to eat a roll stuffed with chips and cheese, followed by creamy pasta) and my skin looked weird.

Now 3 weeks later, my skin looks good (the smoking makes it hard for it to be great) and I'm thinner, happier and feel pretty good.

Now that I've mastered (kind of) , the art of not procrastinating on my weight loss, I'm promising myself that I'll blog at least 3 times a week (even though no one reads this blog lol)

Love and happiness all round
