Photos from saturday night just gone have been put up, and they were a wake up call. On the actual night I didnt feel too bad in myself, but looking at those pictures makes me cringe I've been super good this week, and have done a ton of exercise, feeling a lot better for it and my eating has been really really controlled so thats positive. Hopefully I can continue in this vein!   xxx

Despite a slight lapse with some ben and jerry's... i just went on a longer run than i can normally manage and now feel fantastic. Its amazing what a little sport can do for your mindset and confidence. The next thing to sort is my bloody eating. With exams i make excuses for myself, I reward hard academic work with food... and i need to stop. I have a big school occassion in two weeks, and dreading looking for a dress. I want to look nice in those pictures but have become camera phobic of late. If thats not an incentive...

I have to admit, it has not been the most successful day food wise - i was doing so well...up until there was birthday cake in the sixth form common room... and then the cheeky handfuls of chocolate button were perhaps not the BEST idea... I did manage to go on a truly fantastic run though - really really enjoyed it. Perhaps my focus of the next couple of months will be exercise, i just need to cut down on the crap. xxx

This is all completely new to me, never done something like this before but i have faith that it will do me a lot of good. Being a teenage girl, I want to remember these years as my happiest. I'm generally confident, and wish that was the case with my body. Ever since I quit the school teams due to pressures of school work and up and coming a levels, my weight has been really hard to control, and I think I have used stress and other issues to try and convince myself that its not my fault. And you know what?...
