Day 23

http://www.nellyagbogu.com/2013/03/day-23-begins-week-4.html?m=1

Good people! am still basking in ths euphoria of last week unexpected weight loss... i already fill like Agbani Darego in my heart, i have been smiling from teeth to teeth choi! am happy... very happy!!!
The struggle continues...
So today ushers in week 4 which at the end of the week am to show my before and after photos. Well right now am so not looking forward to it, my kids were invited for a birthday party and am sorry to announce that am gonna cheat.
I de talk my own shaa , can't be surrounded by food and won't taste a little mbanu!!!
So let me report myself now, but don't worry I will surly pay for it, lol
Ok see you guys later if I get time i will blog from the parry to tell how much I missed real food lol.

So i have been getting alot of buzz from people asking me why i chose the cambridge diet and why i dont want to jog or watch what i eat, they too are big and have been watching what they eat, ... blah blah blah...

Anyways una no go understand,as far as am concerned, all you people calling yourself fat, you guys are actually slim beside me oh! dont allow my pics and my height to deceive you...
I promised to tell you guys a bit about me so here is it ...

I have not always been big, the pictures above is me in my university days, when i used to be the rocking babe in school... i may not be catergorised as small but i definitely wont be called big...
Even at that i have always been struggling with my weight but it didnt really bother me and all because i used to trek mostly as our lectures were literally scattered all over the school.
Then in school even up till now my slang has been one more wouldnt hurt but i was just in denial, i really let my body rule over mind....
I kept increasing and it never stopped. I have a very catchy personality which people get attracted to first so it was easy to blank my 'fat issues" from anyone and go with the flow... I feel am a shy person (alot of people don't believe that lol) and a goal getter and won't stop until i get what i want. but that only applies to every other thing except my weight...

Beyonce was on a very low calorie diet

I found this article on Beyonce talking about how she lost all the baby weight on a very low calorie diet. This was an interview with shape magazine.
Impossible is nothing ....

Read the extract from Abc news

In an interview with Shape magazine the star who was born Beyonce Knowles said she gained 57 pounds during her pregnancy.

The worst thing about being fat...

I usually thought that the worst thing about being fat is that people already knows your "issues" even before you get to know them, i mean usually you need to be close to someone one before you can share in their story, but mine is right there in my stomach, arms, and my intimidating height doesnt help matters.
Standing at 6ft tall with a weight over a 120kg, my "issues" are very "obivous". The instantly know am out of control and anything else am good at is being negated.

Other things wrong about being fat are...

Once upon a time i was giving my baby a bottle of water and he started playing with the bottle and then threw it down, so i handed my baby to my nanny and decided to give to pick the bottle, tried squatting to pick it the bottle and it was just impossible so i decided to bend down yet my hand could not reach the floor i was obstructed by the 160kg fat which had made sure i could not pick the bottle. Then reality struck me, i was severely obese and need to do something right now before i die!
I thought about my sedenatry life which never included exercise and my eating habit? just too sad to mention, i became desperate to loose weight ... i started with taking walks in the field but i noticed i get tired easily and i was not loosing as fast as i wanted to enable me start running. Was introduced to Cambridge diet by a friend/consultant and since then i got hooked.


As a beginner, starting a weight loss journey takes every being in you, you need to need it more than ever before and be determined enough to go through it... whether is waking up and exercising or just watching what you eat or even dieting, it needs to be a lifestyle and that's the only way to get through.
Whether you have 5kg or 80kg to loose you need to find your motivation stick on it and dont ever think you will start to see results from day 1.

"does blogging about your weight help you loose weight?"

It got me thinking very much and my answer is "it really depends" i will tell you why...

The looser identity

This is one post am not sure will come out right no Matter how I phrase it so I will just let my thoughts flow.

I love being called a looser, a weight looser. Someone who has worked hard to shed some extra kilos, the more I think about it, the more i actually realise it becomes a sort of self-validation and reassurance for me than what people think of me.

prisoner of food?

So I having difficulties settling back into the diet, it feels like am in week 1 again. The hunger pains are back, I can't think straight my reasoning brains are covered with sweet little things, and the worse of all is that voice, yes, that freaking voice... drumming at the back of my head saying ... "Nelly remember one more wouldnt hurt, you are already here at the cake shop picking a cake for your son, just look right, ah! Your fav! Carrot cake, it's just a slice and its carrot cake for crying out loud, it's healthy"

Dieting in Lagos


So I got a message from one of my readers asking how I manage to diet in Lagos considering the hostel and bustle of Lagos. And my answer is simple... "Na God"

But the truth remains that I still need to do the physical work. I tell myself the truth and that's simple, the time to start is now... Not tomorrow not after Easter or public holidays .... Am starting now and amazed on how strong willed I have been afterwards. I see myself doing what I thought was earthly impossible.
Like I have mentioned earlier, I have changed my lifestyle, instead of driving down to my son's school, I walk down there and it may seem pretty easy to others but I have never done that in my life.

Letter to body...

I have been a bad girl, i mean very bad girl to body and sincerely have not appreciated my body enough.
Ever since i balloned to my initial start weight 160kg, i have hated my body, never given it breathing space, always nagging about how bad it made me feel but the truth is i am also involved in making it this way... so i decided to write an apology letter to my body and also promise to stay committed to my journey...

Guest Post: Big Brother Africa Star Geraldine Iheme weight loss success story!

Today i will be featuring our very own BBA Revolution Star - Geraldine Iheme!
You know, when i heard from a friend of hers that Gerry had struggled with her weight for a while i could not believe her story because hey! celebrities are usually too concious of their weight gain, until i saw shocking before and after photos.
Most of us can relate to her story not as a celebrity but as a person who had struggled with weight at some point in our life, now she is in full control of her body...
I personally understand the amount of work it takes to take control of your body, though am not yet there, but in the end, when i look back the journey was worth the ride...

well, can't even spot any difference between the before and after pic....

Wow!! You are doing great. Would like more details on the cambridge diet and its cost implications.
Regards

@ all, if you stop the diet, your weight will creep back on.

Right now your body is forced to be on ketosis. The best way you can ever lose weight is little food and exercise. No pain no gain my sister. I did it before, I really loved the bar esp the chocolate , milk shake et all, not a big fan of the soup.

Good Luck sis!

Not necessarily; I happen to know for a fact that the Cambridge Diet is amazing as it does provide excellent results. I hope you don't expect to go back to eating the same things that made you fat in the first place after losing weight? Weight gain or obesity is something else that needs to be addressed individually; the Cambridge diet does what it promises - it helps you lose the weight YOU accumulated over the years, lol. It is up to you to ensure you don't put it back on.
