30 Secrets In 30 Days

More of a confession really, but I am a terrible comfort eater. I binge out on so much junk instead of eating regular meals if I’m the slightest bit down or lonely.
I found these old trousers yesterday which are what I wore in my ‘365 Days’ portrait of the day.
I was amazed at how fat I was 2 years ago, I have managed to lose weight without really trying, it was all down to circumstance, like living away from home, being at University, having little money to waste, stress of work and my mothers illness and untimely death all contributed to my fluctuating weight.

I was told I was clinically obese by a nurse and I only needed to lose one stone to be labelled as overweight…You can imagine this didn’t help matters!

I still have a long way to go to a size that I feel comfortable in. I just need to keep on a high and not slip down the slippery slope of junk food again!

If you have or get to know more secrets of doing that please let me know! I had way to many Kölsch (local beer in Cologne) during the "Karneval" which made it to my body weight right away! So I could use this for sure... ;)

Since moving to London I've been losing weight, and so has Gordon. Walk as often as you can. If you have a few extra minutes to get somewhere, get off the tube or bus one stop earlier. Climb stairs instead of using the elevator. Walk up the escalator. All these little things add up ... and before you know it you'll notice you're tightening your belt. :)

Boy I understand the comfort food dilemma. Sorry to hear about your mum. My binge days are almost always work related. That's some pretty impressive weight loss to have your pants hang like that. Keep at it. :)

Know this one very well. I went from a reasonably active job to one where I'm sat down for pretty much 12 hours a day, then binge eating as well. I put on a stone for each year when I moved to London, and it's only when I realised what was happening that I could take a little control back.

It's not like giving up something like smoking though. You can rationalise something you don't really need - but when you need to eat to live, and you can't get enough exercise in the day that you realise how difficult it is to lose the pounds.

It's taken years to put on, it's gonna take years to take off (properly), but don't sweat it. If you're burning off only a tiny bit every day, it's the long term that counts. You've lost so much already - keep it up!

I'm sorry to hear about your mum. I can understand how it turns your life upside down. x
