Task 5: Say It Out Loud

I have really struggled with this preseason task.  As a natural planner, it seems a little strange that I struggled with this task.  I mean "say it out loud" seems so easy really.  You would think that all I would need to do is tell people that I am doing the 12WBT - but it's not.  There is actually a very big scary word involved... commitment...

Up until this point in time I wouldn't have ever thought that I would have an issue with making a commitment to anything.  I think that I love freely and am a fairly open person. however, making a promise to myself it believe it or not, one of the hardest things I think I have had to do.  Believe it or not, the thoughts I have had over the last few days have actually left me feeling panicky and a little tight in the chest.

I realised tonight that I think this is because there are a couple of things that i really hate.  One is lying, and the other is breaking a promise.  How do I ensure that the commitment I make to myself is honest, and a promise that I can keep?

I know that my partner supports me in anything that I do, however, this has nothing to do with other people supporting me.  I am quite independent and I know that if I want something bad enough, I will just get it done.  This program is all about me.  It's all about making sure that I hold myself to my promises and I am honest with myself when I make them.

The only problem is, I'm not entirely sure that I can do this... I know that I can do it, but will I??  Will I stick it out?  Will I make the changes?  What if I fall off the wagon?  What if I screw up?  What if I just turn into a lazy sack of crap and come up with excuses not to exercise? What if I don't cook the foods I should?  What if I continue to eat crap because I am too lazy to cook?

I know that this is all down to me, and I am scared that maybe I will fail myself... and I don't like failing...

Why is it so hard to do this for me and to believe in myself enough to know that I can?

So, after much thought, this is what I commit to myself and to Michelle:
  • I will exercise 6 times a week - if I don't get to the gym, then I will exercise at home using the resources I have here
  • I will eat the diet that Michelle sets out - I know that I will be healthier and have more energy because of it and it will also bring a much healthier lifestyle to the household
  • I will lose 15 kilos in the 12 weeks of the challenge because I will stick to the first 2 points.
  • If I stuff up, I commit that I will just keep going and keep trying my best
So, there it is.  This post is as honest as I could possibly be about how I have been feeling over the last few days.  It's great to finally get it out there.

Task 4: Gear Up!

I thought I was geared up and all set to go, but after reading through some of the posts on the forum I thought I should probably have a back up plan...

I am planning on gymming it, but I was thinking, "What if I am away?" or "What if we have unexpected guests over and they don't leave until after the gym closes?".  And then I just happened to be looking through the Aldi and Big W catalogues and realised that i need to go shopping... (ok, so maybe not need, but more of a want lol)

So, this is what I am thinking and I would love to hear what you all think :)

* Boxing gloves - these are on sale at Big W atm, and I remember doing a boxing class at the gym a couple of years ago and the inside of the shared gloves were pretty gross.  Plus, I could use these at home with my partner.
* Magic Sit Up - (on sale at Big W) usually I am not into these kinds of weird gym equipment things, but after going to the gym the other day and couldn't do one unassisted sit up, I thought it might be useful to do at home where no one can see me and i won't need anyone to hold my feet. I put a pic in so that you can see what this is - do you think it would be good for a beginner like me or just a scam kinda thing?
* a small set of dumbbells (which are on sale at Aldi lol), this way I have no excuse not to do weights at home if needed.
* some DVD's for at home - I don't really have any, plus they would be good to take away with me and watch on my laptop



I currently have:
* good shoes (my netburners for netball which will need replacing next season)
* a HRM (had this for a couple of years now)
* some longer tops for working out in so that I don't need to keep pulling it down during classes
* a gym mat (which hasn't been used in years! lol)
* a fit ball (which hasn't been used in years! lol)
* xbox and wii fitness games

I have decided that I really want to focus on core strength, because I have always avoided working on it in the past.  I think that I really do need to think seriously about what if I can't get to the gym for whatever reason.  I know I tend to get a bit fluffy when I am at home and don't do anything (the last 3 nights have proven that!!) so I think that I need to think seriously about having a plan in place for when things don't go the way I plan.

Task 3: Take Control - Set Your Goal

(Updated)
I have been a little lagging in getting this post up, mostly because I have really struggled with setting some goals this time around.  I don't know why I have struggled so much with this as I am a goal oriented person, but I think it's because (and I am being totally honest here), I wonder if I really can achieve them... I have set myself so many goals in the past, and I have struggled to reach them as I usually lose focus or go off track with my eating.

On one hand, I know that an all or nothing approach doesn't work, as you tend to binge, but on the other, how do you make sure that you are able to 'treat' yourself without going completely in the opposite direction??  This is something that I struggle with all the time because as soon as I let myself 'treat' myself with a chocolate or something, i just keep 'treating' myself until all of a sudden those 20kg have crept back on...

I need to change my mindset that I am not missing out on anything, that I am choosing this way of life.  I just don't know how to stop when it comes to food that I love... other than just cutting it out completely.  I do remember when I initially lost weight, I didn't have chocolate for 6 months, and by the end of it I didn't actually need chocolate, but one day I thought, why not?! and that was that... I brought it back into my life...

Where is my will power, and will it stay?

Anyway, onto goal setting, I have been thinking long and hard about what I want to achieve, and it has been really hard to figure out what I want and how to harness that into a motivator, but these are some of the things that I have come up with:

Woo Hoo!!! One Excuse BUSTED!

The weekend that has just passed was a very active one for me.  I played a game of netball on Saturday, and then yesterday I did a Power class!  Oh believe me, both days I was fighting with myself... I really couldn't be bothered doing either... I was trying to come up with reasons (excuses!) for why I didn't have to go, but thankfully I did - I am so glad because I am just so proud of myself for doing it!!  I even told my boyfriend to give me a reason not to go (haha!!) and he said "Leeana, just do ur bloody class!!" - love that!! lmao!!

The thing is, I know once I get there, I will see it through, I might not like it, but I will still see it through - I just need to get there first!

So, I have kicked off the calorie burning goal of 40,000 calories in 15 weeks with a whopping 1549 calories burned in 2 days!! I'm pretty impressed!! That's 994 from netball and 555 from the power class!

I am actually looking forward to doing another power class - I love the clean and press!! haha!

Task 2: Get Real - No More Excuses

I have been thinking really hard about everything I tell myself about why I don’t exercise or eat right, and I am amazed by how long it is!! I started it last night, and as I have thought of more I have come back to continually update it. I thought I would share some of mine with you:
  • I don’t enjoy exercise
    - Not all exercise is grunting and moaning – find the fun stuff to do!
  • I get dizzy in the mornings if i exercise too hard
    - Eat something beforehand to give you energy – like a protein bar or something (note to self – find a good protein bar lol)
  • I always quit – why will this be different
    - This program gets results, you have seen it! This program offers a lot more support and Mish is going to be around to kick your arse!! The people on the forums will also be around to support you – be as open and honest as you possibly can and you WILL SUCCEED!!!
  • I can’t go to the gym today, it’s going to hurt and I’ll be too tired and tomorrow (pinched this one from someone else on the forum – thank you for reminding me that I use it too lol)
    - seriously?! you are TIRED now! It might hurt or feel a bit sore and stiff tomorrow, but how HOT are you going to look?! You can’t get the body you want by sitting around on the lounge eating chocolate and watching Stargate!
  • It’s too much effort to go to the gym
    - The gym is on the same street as your work – you drive past it in the mornings AND the afternoons – suck it up princess and move it!
  • I should be cleaning/cooking instead of working out
    - You don’t live on your own anymore, you have a supportive partner who has no issues with cooking or cleaning
  • I have to be home in time to let The Boyfriend in to the garage (only one remote)
    - give him the remote and tell him you will be late home (also told him this excuse last night and he said that wasn’t gonna fly and he was gonna get another remote done up today lol)
  • I deserve to have chocolate because I work hard
    - You have a chocolate addiction – when you don’t eat it, you don’t want it! You don’t need the chocolate to make you feel better and in the long run, it won’t because it will be a step backwards from your goal. When you eat 2 serves of fruit a day you don’t have the same sugar cravings because you are satiated.
  • I need to knit to relax (yes, I am a knitter lol)
    - who says you can’t have both? you might not be able to knit as much, but you can make it work – try exercising in the mornings – you can have the nights to knit.
  • Working out too much stresses me
    - have a plan. Know what you want to achieve out of each session. Follow Michelle’s plan – it works! Plan it into your schedule/routine and stick with it!
  • I cant say no to chocolate/food
    - self control is not a bad thing. You have done it before. Find foods that you love that you look forward to eating. Plan ahead for parties and such so that you know what you can have.
  • I still don’t really like fruit and veges
    - I have learned to like LOTS of new foods, including fruit and veges – this list will continue to grow as I try more things and change the way foods taste as I am eating healthier.
  • I can’t exercise in the mornings, I need sleep
    - Go to bed earlier! Just an hour or half an hour – get into a routine where you read in bed for half an hour or so – you know that as soon as you get into bed you will be sleepy
  • I don’t have anything to wear
    - Why do you need to be a fashionista at the gym?! You have a hot spunky man – you don’t need to impress anyone other than him or yourself – you are not going to the gym to look got there – you are going to look hot from all the work that you are putting in! As long as you have the basics, you are fine.
These are just some of mine, some of them I found really silly when I actually realised the were there – the sad thing is that I am sure I will be finding more excuses over the next few days to add to my list.

Task 1: Introduce Yourself

The last few weeks I have put on most of the 20kg I have lost in the past, and after seeing my friend’s success during Round 2, I have been thinking about the 12WBT more and more.
So, here I am! 27, with big life changes going on (read: instant family lol) but ready to lose some weight! I want to have energy back in my life and I want to learn to love exercise again – although that seems far away at the moment! haha!

I can’t believe I have almost put on all of the weight I have been losing over the last 4 years!! The sad thing is, most of it has been put on in the last 5 months since I started seeing my boyfriend lol – just couldn’t say no to food and thought that the chocolate and desserts wouldn’t hurt… whoops!!

So here I am, with 20kg to lose, trying to change some of my new (and old) mindsets and looking forward to seeing my before and after photos! lol

I am really lucky that my boyfriend is super supportive (he even offered last night to wake up first, make my coffee and then make sure that I went to the gym in the mornings lol) and is willing to help me out where he can, which I totally love about him. However, in saying that, I know that this is all about me and my mindset and how I approach this program.
Right now I am so incredibly tired all the time, I know my diet isn’t right and I haven’t exercised in weeks. I am 27 and I am scared that all of my health issues will come back (pre-diabetic, high cholesterol, PCOS) and that my weight will impact on me falling pregnant.

 I have to admit that I am a little terrified at the moment, mostly of failing… but as my friend pointed out to me today – I’m already doing that! It’s time to shine!

12 Week Body Transformation - Round 3

You may have heard recently about Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation (12WBT), I know of a few people who have been talking about it, including a friend of mine who has recently lost almost 16kg in the 12 week program.

Now, anyone who knows me, will know that I am not into fad diets.  I have never done one, and will always refuse to do one... This program takes a holistic approach to losing weight and becoming healthy - mentally, physically and nutritionally.

I have always had this program in the back of my head - from when the very first announcement was made, but never really thought I could do it, mostly because it does look a little rigid in the meal plans and to be completely honest - I was scared of how much the workouts were going to hurt! afterall, it's Michelle Bridges!!!

Anyway, that little spiel brings me to my next little announcement -  

I HAVE SIGNED UP!!!

That's right - I signed up yesterday! After talking to my friend who did it, and another of my friends (as well as the boyfriend) for their opinions, I decided to just bite the bullet!  The final decision was made when I told my friend "I'm scared of failing", to which the reply was:

"Your not scared of failing, because its what you are already doing. It's success your scared of."

Basically, I am already failing, because I have put the weight back on, and it's true - I am scared of success... but I am hoping that with all of the "mind work" I will need to do that I can overcome this and stop sabotaging myself.  I am taking this program 100% serious.  I am dedicated to doing all of the preseason tasks to the best of my ability, I will do everything that Michelle tells me to do and I will try all kinds of new foods!  I will even eat the foods I'm not that fond of (such as tomatoes) in the hopes that one day I will learn to like them

Last night, I was going through my Crunch Time book, and realised that I had forgotten that I actually have a signed copy - that's right, I have met Michelle Bridges (pic below).  Looking back, I have to say that out of her and Shannon, I always preferred Shannon, but I think that's actually because I knew I wouldnt be able to get away with anything with Michelle... and believe me - I would try!  So, I am saying here and now, that during this process I am going to try my hardest to be completely honest with you all, it won't be easy, and I am hoping that I will be able to recognise when I am lying to myself and to you all as well - so please, pull me up on it!

This pic was actually taken when I was about 10kg lighter... gosh I really don't like my hips! lol

So anyway, I think thats about it for now, I think I will post all about my preseason tasks here as well as general updates and what not.  I hope that those of you reading will enjoy this blog and join in on this journey with me!

Oh and a little side note, I am considering doing a little bit of a video blog too, so let me know if you think I should - although if I do this blog will become private and people will have to request to follow it, just to allow me to feel not so silly lol.

How to lose weight

I was pottering around Calorie King, avoiding work, and found this post which i totally agree with, and thought I would share:

I decided to write this after receiving a few emails asking for advice on what I did to lose weight. (Frankly I didn't want to have to keep repeating the same thing over and over :D)


In addition I’ve noticed a few things around the forums, generally people asking for help because they aren’t losing weight or feel they’ve plateaued, but generally aren’t actually following CK recommendations because they couldn’t possibly eat that much…. Sorry guys how do you think you got overweight in the first place (despite whether you think you did or didn’t eat a lot, you where eating too much).


So, these are some of the things I did, that worked for me, I can’t guarantee they’ll work for you, but if what your doing isn’t working what have you got to lose.


First and foremost, my top two recommendations are this, be honest with yourself and what you are reporting/recording and start by actually following CK recommendations. It never ceases to amaze me that people will go out of their way for weeks on end to try the latest fad diet but refuse to try CK recommendations.


So to elaborate on this, you have to find some time to be bothered to fill in your diary and for a while at least this means weighing everything, not just saying in your diary a medium carrot, what you see as a medium carrot might be very different to what others (including your CK diary) might see as a medium carrot, so you do have to be bothered to weigh things. Most people are more than a little surprised to discover just how much they get wrong especially when it comes to meet and stuff. In addition to that we all know about consumerism, and just because a packet of something says 500g doesn’t always make it so, someone posted recently about discovering that the package weight versus the actual weight was that the actual weight was significantly higher, meaning more calories in than they thought! Over the course of a week this can make or break your loss.


CK recommendations. Follow them for at least 2 weeks better to go for 4 weeks, AFTER that you can start tweaking if the weight isn’t coming off. Here’s the thing with exercise cals, my suggestion is if you don’t have a HRM and you use CK to guestimate them only eat back half your exercise cals, when you get a HRM you will have a better picture. This is what I did in the beginning before I got my HRM. Once you’ve established a routine you will see if eating all or some back works for you. But I beg of you to actually try it first before discarding it, all I see is people continuing to drop their calories lower and lower, and wondering why they aren’t losing weight…. Cause your body is probably friggen hungry.


Be prepared. The more prepared you are the better off you will find yourself in times of weakness or just generally having a bad day. Whether you pick a day of the week to do a cook up or just cook extra a few nights a week, (I do both! :D) I then freeze the extra portions and if I come home and don’t want to cook, I have something, quick, easy, portion and calorie controlled that will take 10 minutes in the microwave. Generally I actually sit down the evening before and enter what I’m going to eat the next day into my diary, this way I can see where I am calorie wise, I can quickly pack my lunch and snacks in the morning and take out anything I need for dinner. I keep a pad in the kitchen so I weigh everything out and then whilst dinner is cooking I can sit down punch it all into CK, make sure the cals are OK and I’m good to go. This way I don’t get caught with the half an hour spent wondering what I should have and then getting so hungry I cave in to the sausage roll or McDonald’s or whatever.


Educate yourself. Spend a bit of time reading up on things, there is a lot of conflicting information, you may have to tweak things to get it all working for you, but this is something you will need to maintain long term, if you simply consider it a diet you go on and off, congratulations we will see you here next year heavier again. Learn about foods, what is good fuel, what is better fuel, learn about take away foods, so that if you are out shopping and you didn’t bring anything with you and you need to eat, what are the better options for you? Subway… try a subway salad (you can even double the meat! ;D) McDonald’s… it might be a worst case scenario, but the Sweet Chilli Seared Chicken wrap, a salad and water work out to be one of your better options. Write it all down on a piece of paper if you have to, but have a string of choices up your sleeve, to help you make a better choice than chips and a burger (or whatever).


In addition to the educating yourself is understanding food better. Some people say as long as you are under cals, if you eat your cals in chocolate it doesn’t matter, but unfortunately for most it really does. If you truly are being honest in your recording (generally people think they are but aren’t – sorry if that offends, the truth often does) and you still aren’t losing weight, start looking at what you are eating, because it matter’s also, it really is a combination of how much you eat, what you eat, and how you move, that’s why when people ask me what I did to lose the weight I say “Eat better and move more”. Notice I don’t say eat less, I say Eat better. Bulking out your meals with vegetables will not only fill you up (for less calories) they are good for you in a whole host of other ways and will do much more for you than a block of chocolate.


All or nothing. I used to have this attitude, I had to get it all perfect from the get go and if I did one thing wrong I packed it in and went back to my KFC and chocolate. The biggest change I made when I started this final time round, was to do what I could. Instead of overwhelming myself with being perfect, I just did one thing for a week, I drank a 750ml bottle of water every day for a week. The next week I took a flight of stairs instead of the lift and drank my bottle of water, every day for a week. Start with one thing, or one meal at a time and you will be surprised to suddenly finding yourself, several weeks down the track, with new habits, and more than likely weight and cm loss. This also helped so that if I did find myself knee deep in a tub of ice-cream, that was OK, rather than killing myself for it and making the choice to eat crap for the rest of the week, I would just get back up, dust myself off and move forward again, one step at a time.


Which brings me to measurement. You can’t live and die by the scales, they are only one measurement, one guide of what is going on in your body (I’m talking scales for body weight you should live and die by your kitchen scales as previously pointed out ;D). I personally don’t believe in daily weighing it does my head in, if you choose to do it, you must be fully comprehensive of the fact that daily fluctuations occur for a mirad of reasons, otherwise, stick to weekly. In fact in my first few months I had someone else weigh and measure me once a month and tell me my results. This meant I couldn’t obsess over the scales. Measuring yourself is just as important if not more. There are likely to be times when the scales may not move, but your clothes are getting looser and you are losing cm’s this is what you want really! So this applies to all things, BMI, waist hip ratio, they are guides, and they don’t work for everyone, so don’t kill yourself trying to fit them, if you aren’t sure and can get to one, a Dexa scan (Body composition scan) is really your best option, especially if you are not sure what the right weight is for you. They are worthwhile in my opinion, but generally on any measurement you use, you are looking for a downward trend to keep you going.


Are you bored yet? Next is support and accountability. People generally say I’m not telling anyone what I’m doing in case I fail… way to set yourself up there! Firstly if you can get your family and friends on board working with you, it will make it sooooo much easier, but in addition to that, it will also weed out people who might try to sabotage you. You need to figure out who these people are (they might not realise they are doing it, they might!) because you will need to employ strategies in dealing with this people, whether it be being fully prepared when you see them, asking them to stop (if they are a spouse or someone you live with) through to the extreme of not being involved with them anymore (are they really a good friend worthy of your time and energy). If you can’t find support in your family and friends, then look online, and find what you need, only you can find it, so don’t use it as an excuse to quit. Best of all is that shoulder and ear to lean on when you are having a hard day, having a whinge is always preferable to eating a bucket of ice-cream or a block of chocolate! :D


Get over yourself. Yep harsh hey…. The biggest obstacle you will have is yourself. Really listen to some of the things you tell yourself, I’m so busy, I’m so lazy, I can’t do this, I can’t do that, it hurts, it’s uncomfortable, blah blah blah. We tell ourselves a lot of sh*t! Change only comes when you step outside your comfort zone. Start changing the negative self talk around. One of mine was this, I used to tell it to myself but I also used to say it out loud to people!!! “I’m fundamentally lazy”. And guess what boy I believed it. One day I heard myself and thought what am I doing? So I stopped saying it, and guess what happened, I stopped believing it. And I have to say within a few weeks I really managed to crank up my exercise routine, because I wanted to do more, because I didn’t feel lazy anymore. Everyone has them a million and one excuses and how everyone else is in there way. Nope, only one person in your way and that’s you, what you say to yourself, how you react to what’s going on around you. Get out of your own way and I promise an amazing new world will open up to you.


Finally, well there’s probably loads more to say, but I don’t think that anyone can digest much more, and that’s this it won’t all be smooth sailing and that’s OK. You may fall down, but what’s most important is to get up again and continuing to move forward, that’s where your ear friend or even this forum is a good place to come. Be willing to get a butt kicking and some support at the same time, as far as I’m concerned if you are serious that’s what you are really looking for to get you going again.


As always with anything that’s posted here on the forums, I highly suggest, you take what resonates for you and discard the rest, I hope this gives newbies a starting point and anyone struggling some food for thought… so to speak! :D
 I love this post because it gets straight to the point, and it is totally true - the only way to lose weight is to do it healthily, honestly and ask for help if you need it!  How do you know if this person is telling the truth?  Well the fact that she has dropped from 130kg to 75kg should say it all really!

Kicking Off

I have come here to start a blog where I can get my thoughts, frustrations and triumphs out in regards to my weight loss. I have recently put on a lot of the weight that I have lost due to lifestyle changes with no routines or structure. The next few weeks are also going to be quite similar, although things are starting to settle down a little now. At the moment I have a sinus infection, so to be quite honest, I feel like crap! I started back on trying to eat healthier on Monday, however being sick has lowered my self control and to be fair, I haven't done so well, but this comes with it and I know that as long as I keep trying I will get there.

Anyway, after putting on over 10kg in a few months and nudging closer and closer to my ultimate starting weight of 99kg.  While I knew at the time that my eating was way off the mark with all of the takeaway foods I was eating, somehow I didn't think it would do this much damage - but it really does.

People who know me in RL know that I am studying to be a dietician.  Does it make me a bit of a fraud putting on weight like this?  I'd like to think that it makes me human - I know what needs to be done, its just finding a way to make it work in my lifestyle.

I am hoping that on this blog I will also be able to share any recipes I use so that I can easily find them again as well as so that if anyone reads this blog that they will be able to use them too.

I hope that I will be feeling better next week so that I can start going to the gym, which should hopefully help me stay on track with my eating.  At the moment though, I am happy to be eating home cooked meals and not take away as I was before, now I just need to eat more fruit and veges and life will be great!

I also need to put up my current stats (as of yesterday morning)
