They are buildling in it the Macquarie Centre... they were only handing out free KK's the other day on campus so everyone will know that its opening at the end of the month.

As for me.. Detox is still working.... therefore i had to watch everyone else enjoy the KK's!!!!

I mean, I could have misheard, but I'm pretty sure that on mentor training day that the SAM people mentioned how we were going to get a Krispy Kreme on campus, in addition to various other SAM upgrades to come in before VSU.

Gah! *clings onto thread for dear life*

Keep strong girls! I'll be clinging onto this thread for dear life too!! Im finding it really hard what i ate this morning too!

Breakfast: bok choy, steamed chicken and 2 boiled eggs (one of my bigger breakfasts's)

Lunch: err a couple of frankfurts and urrm... some handful of light shredded cheese and urrh yeh i can't think what else (i pretty much just grabbed anything proteinish from the fridge.. oh yeahh thats right, i had the leftovers from my breakfast)

Dinner 1: half a multigrain sandwich with frankfurt/alphalpha sprouts/cheese and light margarine

Dinner 2: Pending.. but it'll be the other half of the sandwich plus some other frankfurts lol

Snacks: 2 cans of sugarfree V and sugar free gum and an apple

Criticism: too much frankfurts, frankfurts make me gain weight :( but i was too lazy to steam the chicken! I've also resorted to V again but at least its sugarfree V!

Im also taking ginko bibloa tablets... to make me stay alert and stuff ... also a bad thing but i seriously need to study.

Hopeful what condition do you have, that she wants you to cut out sugar from your diet completely? ... does that include natural sugars :S:S

whoo I just emailed of my ARTS210 course log to my tutor (due tomorrow), am going through ENGL218 journal now (will finish very soon if not already?!) and then have to go through BBA250 speech tonight after America's Next Top Model...

In regards to food, I'm going to try and eat meat stuff. It tends to be more filling, and considering that it's not as easily accessible as carbs it might reduce my snacking tendancies...

*head spin* The next two weeks are going to be the hardest ever... like, I actually have to really watch what I eat now, because I know it's going to be a real struggle to keep healthy! But it's been going well over the last few weeks, I don't want it to stop now!

*cue cliches about how "the real challenge begins now!" etc*

Last post for tonight... but we need ideas on how to resist temptation!

Here's my input... everytime you think you want to binge out on chocoate... just think how long it would take to burn off that many calories! this works for me... ive resisted eating copious amounts only becoz i know i won't be able to burn it off.

i'm thinking about giving myself a new challenge - no excess chocolate for as long as i can handle it (aim: 3-6 weeks). excess means anything i have by choice at home or when out alone, it doesn't include parties etc. it's not just a random challenge, i have problem skin so it's because of a bunch of reasons relating to that. this thread has given me motivation so i start today.

so, resisting temptation, hm, i'm stumped but i need some ideas before i start craving! your idea clairegirl is good. also i am going to hide all the chocolate in the house so i can't see it. and come up with other food to take its place (e.g. not healthy in large amounts, but i think i'll buy chips and nuts)

yep it was boiled, it was soooooo yummy. it was a great feeling for those 10/15 minutes, until afterward i felt like crap.

glitterfairy, its 10:30. isnt it a lil late to be eating?

hopeful, i think it is fate! i mean, the whole world was meant to come falling down last night, however it didnt happen so maybe it is a sign?
