Lighter life was a bit of a disappointment. It's posh Weightwatchers with potions. The packet foods are simply Slimfast type things, too sweet and too tiny. It was also all a bit disorganised. It took forever to be weighed and measured. I wanted to eat cream buns and yell "I like food and being fat isn't that bad". Then I thought "Actually, being this fat is very bad." So I paid my money for my bits of blotting paper, or whatever the porridge is made from, and I am now a subscriber to the multi million pound diet industry of Britain. The whole thing seemed to take about two hours - most of which was spent sitting around doing nothing. I was so hungry I thought I would eat my guide to lighterlife lite booklet. When I got home I ate everything I could find i.e a bit of hard cheese, some mouldy grapes and the remains of a packet of chocolate buttons.

Lighter Life Day

Weight: 12stone 3lbs

Aha, this is good because my BMI will be perfect for Lighterlife but this is bad because in order to get to this weight I have survived for two days on appetite suppressants, no food and very little sleep. I will probably put on weight when I start the diet.

I have an appointment at 7.45pm today and I am really excited. I am going to be less fat - wheeehee.

People keep telling me I'm not fat but Mr Smith and I agree that three stone is two stone too many overweight. So I am aiming at 10 and a half stone and a size 14.

Problem: Lighter life weigh you with clothes on then calculate your BMI ...
Tomorrow.

It all went very well yesterday, then we had Steak & Kidney pudding for dinner. It was really good.... especially the suet pastry. I was so full.

Dancing this morning, then walking and lots of water.

Thin fat fat

I felt very thin yesterday. As I walked down Exhibition Road my jeans felt extremely loose and my belt had to move in a notch but then I ate lunch ... and ate tea .... and ate dinner and chocolate and all sorts of lovely things and now I weigh ...

12 stone 6 pounds

And I feel fat.

Lighter Life is on 2nd November when I have to weigh about 12 4 because you have to allow for clothes. I have a week on my own coming up so let's hope I can shift some over the next 5 days.

huge

12 stone 6lbs

Oh no. I am really heavy. I do have my period which might account for some of it but I have to lose this. I cannot hang onto this weight like some ghastly old jumper that I love and can't bring myself to part with.

Rising dough

12stone 5lbs and rising
Oh Shit. All food makes me fat. I think I might try Lighter Life. I have GOT to lose weight.
Yesterday I Zumbaed and swam and dog walked and went to college and shagged Mr Smith but I ate too much dinner and a zillion cupcakes.
Today I have my period and I am having lunch with ID Jane.

Going up

Weight: 12stone 5lbs
Oh fuck. Well, I have to admit if it stood still I ate it yesterday so only two pounds up seems modest. In order to get this sorted out I am going madly exercising today. I am determined not to put on weight. I am no longer feeling weird and have recovered a voracious appetite. It will be quelled with lettuce not chocolate.
