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.

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? Sometimes, its just better to be realistic, and own up to it. And its scary and I'm sure I'll get demotivated and feel like none of my hard work is doing any good at times, but hopefully it will be worth it.

I want to look back at my prom pictures, and my holiday pictures and be satisfied that I looked great, happy and confident.

I'll be damned if the powers of dairy milk and ben and jerrys are going to stop me!

So, to the next couple of months...!
