Thanks to my tooth infection…

I want to thank my tooth infection as it:

  • Thaught me how nice life is without it
  • Made me watch “Cast Away” again just for the sake of the tooth removal scene
  • Made me not eat those chocolates so I lost 7lbs in a week.
  • Forced me to jumpstart living and
  • Reminded me how valuable not to have that pain.

Ok, ok I admit that I’ve become lazy :)

I was quite lazy about my projects this last week but I have some excuses. I was sick for 3 days, I wasted my time on a date for 2 days, and I was a lazy bitch for 2 days. My excuses are not very good 🙂

So I should be getting my butt up and get to work.

Today I want a SLICE of FREEDOM

I took this photo on Monday, but it became more meaningful for me today. I really want a slice of freedom today. So, I will go for a walk at the seaside. Like a seagull, I will hang without planning further for just a couple of hours. Seize the day 🙂

Although, I admit that “this walking thing will help for my get healty and ideal weight projects 🙂

Love,

Alex

Weightloss project updates

As you remember, I recently regained my successfully lost pounds back in the past week.

5 - Copy

I started with 130lbs on 23rd Dec 2015.

Lost 10lbs and I was 120lbs on 2nd Jan 2015.

Gained them back on and reached 128lbs on 10th Jan 2015.

Lost some of that gained and today I am 123lbs on 13rd Jan 2015.

Yes with some setbacks due to toothache + antibiotics + painkillers + oversleeping + less movement + depressed eating I was a little bit out of route. Now, I am getting back to my project.

A few people said that my happiness should not be measured by lbs or kgs, I should be happy with what I am…

Why the hell I am doing this life changing project then? Of course I am not happy with what I am 🙂 That is why I have 35 projects to go… I just cannot understand people sometimes 🙂

Thank God, there are many people here supporting me. Thank you so much for your support. I did not give up! I may change my deadline for weightloss as I don’t want to rush myself that much and lose my health again. Maybe 15th of February will replace my ex-deadline 31st Jan 2015 for ideal weight project.

Love,

Alex

Yea yea I failed again… But I’ve gained something priceless…

Yes I failed myself during the past week about weight control.

I’ve gained almost all the weight I’ve lost as I spent my days in bed at home, sick, with toothache, with antibiotics + probiotics, oversleeping, some crying for hairloss due to alopecia areata, some victimizing myself etc etc.

Candida of course is back again, I did everything I could but the antibiotics won.

So, where am I? I am as sick as the first day when I started blogging but something is different now. I am not as helpless as in the first day which was about 20 days ago.

Everything is as shitty as it was, but I am less helpless.

What has been changed in less than a month about me?

YOU!

I’ve not been changed that much but now I have an audience, followers who support me, people who care for me, take some of their precious time to read this. As more of you are added in my life, I became less helpless and grew stronger towards the setbacks and obstacles.

I have more trust in myself now although I failed again in some of my projects. They will get better. I am sure of that.

Because YOU are increasing in my life and YOU give me this motivation.

Thank you dear reader,

thank-you - Copy

You cannot imagine, by just reading this, how helpful you are to change someone’s life.

Like you’ve just done right now 🙂

Love

It’s freezing outside. I am watching a warm Hindi movie Swades (2004) with a cup of turmeric-ginger tea. All Indian today 🙂

If you are out, make sure you bundle up 🙂

GOAL MODIFICATION – You saw that one coming :)

Remember my weightloss project? I modified my target weight:

2. IDEAL WEIGHT PROJECT. Be 100 105lbs & size 4 again, which is my ideal size since I am 5’3” (160cm) and that is tiny :))) My deadline to reach that is end of January 2015. However, I will not do a speed diet or anything. I just keep on what I eat and walk everyday. The goal does not end here of course, keeping that size throughout the year is the real deal. Daily exercise included 🙂 (first posted on December 23rd, 2014)

Modified on Jan 2nd, 2015 as I do not want to be unhealthily thin, I checked the BMI of my target 100lbs. It looks that it is underweight and not that healthy. According to my BMI, I should not be under 7st6lbs so I chose 7st7lbs which is 105lbs or 47.5kgs 🙂 Therefore, goal modified! 105lbs it is 🙂 I don’t think that it would change size. Well we will see…

I have 1 month to reach my goal! I do not change that :p

When I started this 10 days ago, I was 130lbs and now I am 120lbs 🙂 I am going really well! 15lbs to go!

Love,

Alex
