SUMMER TIME - No Pain, No.. Loss?

So finally, Summer's back and so's the diet..
Oh great!

So, Special K want me to eat their original cereal twice a day then for dinner have egg on toast - how thoughtful of them.

Day one has already started and I'm already craving a burger! ):
God help me when I'm in work!

Okay, so besides cutting out obvious foods and dramatically cutting portions, we all know I'm going to have to give up my alcohol ):

Bye Bye Weekenders = Bye Bye Flab
 I suppose it's okay though, I mean, think of the money I'll save and stuff
But still! - No Fair..


So what's the reason for my diet?
Every girl has a reason for a diet, whether it be a holiday, birthday.. it's never "Just so I can lose weight" - otherwise we wouldn't all feel to get a "Summer Body"..


My reason..
Nottinghill Carnival 2010

For once, I'd like to be able to have a picture taken of me and not worry about "Urghh, that angle.. Urghh I hope they don't put that up". I mean obviously, I'm not looking to walk around in my underwear, but I still want to show an amount of flesh and be comfortable.

And with me, I have tried every diet in the book and I lose motivation, but with me going to University in September.. I am nothing, but motivated.

- Last year, I was soooo bait. I mean you can just search certain sound systems on the internet and you'll see me somewhere.

You might not be able to spot me, but I can because of my stupid afro that i decided to rock last year.
LOL
Anybody who knows me will be able to see me to - and this is a distorted video!

BAIT.

So why do we women feel to lose weight none stop?
Why do we feel we're not pretty enough, thin enough, good enough?
 Look at the media.

Okay so we have size 0,2,4 and 6 models.
Anybody who is a size 8,10 & 12 are now considered plus size.

So most real women are plus sizes?
 Is that really what we are trying to say?


That most women will never be famous, models, singers, actresses?
I mean, way to kill of a lot of girl's dreams!/

Most of these stupid pictures are touched up and fixed, THEY don't even look like that!

Okay, okay, so I don't want to be this thin
LOL


But most women feel like they don't fit in to this world because of the way they look.
And if this is how we're supposed to look then, I doubt any woman feels comfortable in their own skin.


The best tip I have is basically to lose enough weight so that YOU feel comfortable.
I mean, I'm quite comfortable as I am, I have gotten over the fact that I will always have big hips and boobs.. I've always been like that.


But, I just want to lose enough so that I can feel pretty - but seriously, no woman should feel like that.

Every woman is beautiful in their own right, and every woman deserves to feel beautiful, but I guarantee that no woman is ever going to feel that way because of the media.

On a less depressing, ramble on level...


(:

I decided to write this part in a bright colour to brighten the mood LOL!

Here's some things that are supposed to help speed up weight loss, whether they work, I don't know, but I'm going to try them...
#1. Eat specific foods. A number of food additives, like spices, can help to speed up your metabolism by creating a thermodynamic burn that has been shown to last a few hours after you eat.

#2. Time your meals. The majority of your calories should be earlier in the day. Your meals should contain less total calories as the day goes on. Try to eat little or preferably nothing at all after your evening meal
"BREAKFAST LIKE A KING, LUNCH LIKE A PRINCE AND DINE LIKE A PAUPER"

#3. Always leave the table like you could have eaten a little bit more. Don't eat for pleasure.

#4. Increase your daily activities. To prevent fat storage and to drop any excess that you might be carrying you must increase your daily activities.

#5. Keep your protiens and carbs away from each other!
Don't mix protiens and carbs because your body ha to work harder to digest, have green and red days.
Green days - Veg & CARBS (e.g. Bread, Pasta, Potatoes)
Red Day - Meat (:
I learned this from Slimmer's World

and finally

#6. Cold Showers - this is supposed to increase your metabolism

Happy Dieting!
