24 hours fasting...?

Well it was more like 25 hours without food.
I drank plenty of water on the side ^^

So basically, I was a bit dim and decided to do it on a day when work was busy and I was extremely busy working on the shop floor... But at the same time, I have come to learn that distractions are key to anything.

On the 17th June, I started my fast at 6:30pm, from which I started to count down 24 hours.

I didn't eat dinner that day because I didn't feel like it, but I started my fast after a bag of Proper Corn (my absolute favourite popcorn and really low in calories too!).
I made sure that I was drinking lots of water (and tea!) along the way.
I think 8 hours of this fast was sleeping, which made the beginning (the hardest part in my opinion) easier, because I couldn't be tempted to eat anything at all because I was asleep.

yes, I love Audrey Hepburn, way more than I
would like to admit, she is my idol.
Then, the first 5 hours after I woke up I didn't feel hungry at all and I got too complacent, thinking 'This will be fine, I won't feel hungry at all!'... How wrong I was... So at 1pm, my tummy started rumbling and I started to feel really lightheaded, but I thought of these quotes.















So it got easier, then I started to count down more, I thought that working out how long I had left would help curb my problem and my cravings. Which it really did.

By 6:30 I was so happy to know that I did a 24 hour fast and did it successfully. I struggled at times and yes there were moments when I thought that it could be easier to eat and get this over with, but really I would be cheating myself by eating.

It just goes to show that a bit of positivity and some discipline really go a long way.
Honestly, I would love to see if I could fast for a longer time next time I fast.
I am aiming to fast every Friday evening through to Saturday, as that is the best time for me to do it and I would love to see if I could even get to 48 hours without eating by next Sunday, but we will see when we get there and I will keep you updated!

Stay strong, Stay positive my lovelies!

Couch to 5ks...

Now, this is really new to me, but I have just started - in the last week - a couch to 5k challenge.
I really want to be fitter and therefore I need to do more exercise than just Zumba, which was very successful and I did lose a stone, but I think it is time to step up my game and learn to love running. In between university time, I have found that I tend to eat a lot more, so I am hoping that this will help to balance that out and perhaps even eliminate my need to eat more food... I don't know quite where my thoughts are, but I hope that it will all even out one day...

Why running you ask?
Because in my lovely, yet crazy way of thinking, I believe that it is the right thing for me to run... Now I am not a cross-country runner or someone who was ever any good at running in school. I was the slowest and the most clumsiest runner I have ever met. I literally have no balance whatsoever. With this, I hope to be fitter and thinner soon enough. But it's going to be a long and difficult few weeks ahead, but I hope I can do it...

Taylor Swift is my thinspo, if she can run, then so can I...

I would love to look like her

So wish me luck!

Stay strong and positive, my lovelies!

Fasting?

So I haven't done a 24 hour fast before, but I am going to give it my best go. So it started tonight at 8 and will end at 8 tomorrow. Fingers crossed for me, I will stay as hydrated as possible and get through this. Because I will be at work all day, it should make it easier to fast without anyone noticing at all.

And whatever time you are looking at this, please remember to...


One day I would love to be able to do this...

If you aren't fasting, however, remember this...

Stay strong and positive lovelies!

Hi...

Just another Thinspo blog...

This is a series of motivators, ideas and images in order to keep myself and anyone else on track!

Currently I feel like this...

and I would love to get to the point where I can do this...

But my ultimate goal is...

and I would love to have a transformation like this...

So, my stats...
I am 5'9"
186lbs but I started at 206lbs, so I have come further than I thought, but I would love to be 130lbs overall.

So stay strong my lovelies, because one day your thin dreams will come true! 
You just need to stay positive! 

Just remember...
