Being less lazy and having less excuses

As I believe most of the people here, I have some experience with losing weight as well. I have gone up and down several times – the last time I had almost my goal weight achieved was last year (2013) in May. Somehow during this year/year and a half I am back where I was before and this happens when I let all the food intake in a flow.



Last 2-3 months I am waking up and each morning starting more balanced food intake. 3 months have passed and I have done nothing in favor of losing the weight. This time I have problems to start, to get that first kick to get going. I create this diary hoping that it will help me to get that first kick and keep my healthier/balanced eating habits for more than 5-7 days :)



Overall I have rather good eating habits and I do sports. I have no problems with drinking lots of water and I am drinking NO soda at all. The only liquids I consume are water, coffee and white wine/champagne (Super healthy, I know :D). I like/enjoy eating vegetables, I am not addicted to fast foods (only exception is pizza from time to time). SO WHAT IS MY PROBLEM THEN? Seems I can be/I am quite healthy. BUT... ehhhh...



The major drawbacks for not having lower weight are:

1. Just being lazy – not paying much attention to food planning and as a result – eating not balanced, therefore eanding up eating too much;

2. I don’t eat many items, I am vegetarian/half vegan – I don’t eat meat, fish or any kind of sea food, eggs, mushrooms and some milk products (but I DO love looooove cheese :D) since I was 6 years old. I am not allergic to these foods nor do I have some other beliefs which are the basis for not eating them. The above mentioned food does not taste good for me (but the reason for this is a medical. Simple explanation – I do not have ferments (particles) in my body that break/crack these products, therefore my stomach hurts if I consume these products);

3. Considering that I am not eating the main sources of lean protein, it sometimes is challenging to get the proper protein intake;

4. And last but not least I enjoy wine. Which means that sometimes a glass here and there when having dinner or at the weekend is a common thing. But at the moment I should reduce (at best cut out for a while) my wine intake as I have discovered that it is major factor in successful weight loss for me.



I am 30 year old female, height 1.71 m (5’7”), currently weighting 77.2 kg (169.8 lbs). My goal weight is 63 kg (138.6 lbs), I should lose in total 14.2 kg (31.2 lbs). Arghhh.... sounds a lot.



The first goal is to lose 4 kg (8.8 pounds) in the first month. Maybe… maybe it sounds a bit unrealistic, as I do have 4 parties already planned this month– my birthday, boyfriend’s birthday, boyfriend mother’s birthday and one Wedding to attend. But on the other hand – the kilos (pounds) DO tend to drop faster on the first weeks/first month. So I will stick with this first deadline:

27.September – 73.2 kg

and I will see how that goes. :)



Have a healthy day everybody!
