Mini Dukan

Today I will start with a min Dukan diet, a very much lighter version, were I will stay away from carbs as much as possible and eat a lot of low fat protein, but I will still eat vegetables, so it will be like the cruise phase of Dukan.
My weight is still on 62,5 with a target weight of under 60 by the end of this month, 14 days to go! So I have to do something drastic. I wont drink alcohol until the end of next week and I will do as much exercise as I can fit into my schedule. I still have 10 more hours of power walking and 13 hours of gym exercise left to reach my goal this month. That means that I will have to exercise more than 1 hour a day the remaining days!
If I make this I will be superproud :)

Happy valentine and a bad day at work

Happy Valentine to everyone! Me and my boyfriend tried not to make this day super special since its so commercial and much nicer to make any other day special. Since we made this decision I was scared that I wasn't going to get flowers, so I bought roses for myself, but then my boyfriend showed up with my favorite TULIPS as well!

My loosing weight is not going so well because I eat crap everyday now... I dont know why, think I am stressed out, but it has to change if I want to meet my goals. Right now I am eating candy and its not the first day this week and still it is only Wednesday... I have to get a grip!

My saving up money is going crap, I was waiting for some people to come around and close some deals today and then they all said no, so I am not getting any money. This feels like shit and is really stressing me out. I have to choose if I should stop working and focus on planning my trip to China and the activities there or if I should give it a last try to make some money but then get less time for my China project. I would only on commission and the product is really hard to sell... my commission is very high if I sell, but since I am not selling at all - no money is coming in!

Loosing weight with the hangover

Blueberrys and japanese algae sallad

This week end has been a lot of fun and full of alcohol, which my body showed me is very bad for it by making me throw up yesterday.
On the Friday I went out with my boyfriend and his friend, it was ok, but we went home around half past one since sleeping felt like more fun. Then I wasn't hangover at all on the Saturday, we went to look at Taekwondo competitions with people from all over the world. It is not the most fun sport to look at, but a new experience!
In the evening I went to a birthday party/moving in party at a friends apartment, I havent seen her for years and only knew one other girl so I met all this new people and she had arranged everything super nice so the night was perfect.... the next day wasn't!! I drank to much, very much to much, by boyfriend told me that I sat on the toilet seat for so long that he had to come and get me and then I said "Peeing fast is only for rich people", so I was probably very messed up :)
On the Sunday I felt ok until lunch then I started to throw up, extreme hangover and couldn't eat even in the evening. So when I weighed my self this morning I was down to 61,3 kg! Really nice even if I will probably put some on for tomorrow. After this fun week end I have some much renewed energy and I will really focus on working out ! My friend who moved will probably work out at my gym and its a lot nicer to work out with a gym friend.

18/14 hours left after running on the thursday as well
power walk 12/10 hours to go

I have 14 hours of working out and 10 hours of power walking to go in 22 days, so I really have to plan these days and I think it will really give a good result! If I am not under 61,5 kg in the end of this week I will do some Dukan next week.

Running and working and planning my treat

This morning I did the power walk before breakfast for 1 hour, very hungry afterwards!!
Yesterday when I was going to the Boxing class I drove around for 15 looking for a parking space..  I didn't find one and missed the class, so stupid. I got really angry and now I have to squeeze in more classes to make my 18 h this month.
I am really proud of my boyfriend who goes to the gym almost every day after work now since mid January, the results are very much starting to show, good inspiration for me.

Today I am having a working day, planning my selling and making a lot of phone calls, boring but efficient and hopefully brings some good results.

I am going to go to the gym at 12 and have a healthy lunch afterwards. My aim is to see far I can run for 30 minutes and how this can improve over time, and then I will of course start to run longer.

I have started to plan a "treat day" for myself for when I get under 60 kilos, I am now fluctuating between 62-63 every other day, so I have to loose 2-3 kilos and the scale have to show under 60 at least 2 days in a row. Maybe I have to do some attach phase dukan days to get there.. I will try without and see how much I can loose, its my last option since I got sick last time.

My treat day so far contains:

Sallad from sallads n smoothies
Massage 1 hour (at saloon)
Tulips (I love!!!)
Foot bath
Pedicure, manicure
Facial masque
Coloring of eyelashes (all above at home to save money )
Yoga 1 hour at the gym
1 magazine
2 episodes of gossip girl
NO WORK OR STRESS!! The perfect day ;)

Body cavitation session 2, a sunny day!

Now the sun is shining finally and I am on my way to the second session of Body cavitation of my inne thighs, took some pictures so that a comparison can be made before and after.

Yesterday I went to 75 min of yoga class and today I will go to a boxing class or go running, so the exercise plan is going really good.

I took new measurements of my thighs, around 57,5 cm ... now I really found the spot where they are biggest around so that I can really see the change.

A week end of body cavitation and bad friends

My last update on the Friday was that I was leaving for an after work with a friend, after a day in Copenhagen that was not a great success since I was selling a system after a test of 2 weeks and he didn't want to buy it.
I bought a lovely coat in white, to not be like everyone else in black and went back to Malmö. When I got home I took a glass of whine and got ready to leave, checked my facebook and there it was - a message from the girl I was going to the after work with that she was ill !! Ever heard of sms ? It was just a coincidence that I actually checked my fb, or else I would be in the city just waiting.. really bad style.

My snow white coat!

My boyfriend was out celebrating his friends birthday in copenhagen and got home at 5 in the morning, and I can never sleep until he is home, so I was up all night :)

On the Saturday I did the body cavitation, first session, I wanted to do it on my stomach but she said I had to little fat there to get any result, that positive, to have to little fat :) So I choose my inner thighs where I will do 5 treatments of 1 hour each. It didn't hurt or anything and after measuring my self after I had lost 0,5 cm on each thigh.  So if its the same result after each session I might loose 2,5 cm on each thigh! This is a place where it's really hard to loose weight.

After the Body cavitation I went to pick up my girl friend who I was going to go out with that night, since I haven't been drinking or going out for 1 month I was really excited. I had bought some wine and cheese and we got ready at my place. Then we went to a restaurant and she called her boyfriend - and he came - and hell began....
Or night out turned into a romantic dinner for 2 , with me as the third wheel. She has borrowed a transparent top from me and he just kept saying how he couldn't take his eyes of her and that he had a hard on... very rude! As the night continued, we went to a bar and then a club - just the 3 of us and they just kept kissing and sitting on each other so at 1 o clock I took a taxi home. Probably the worse night out ever, and I spent more money than on my entire trip to Stockholm, not what my wallet wants with the China trip getting closer and closer.

The only good thing was that I looked hot, much hotter than her :)
Here is the top from the Versace by HM collection that I wore, its really cool and different!

Bought vegetables and fruits - ate Burger King!

I still haven't recovered from the week in Stockholm with my body being messed up the entire time and the -15 weather making me freeze 24-7 so yesterday I wanted to start my new plan. I worked out at the gym for 1,5 hour on Wednesday, and then went healthy food shopping yesterday. In the evening I went for 1,5 hour powerwalk with my friend in the parc, soooo cold!! After that I was exhausted and when my boyfriend asked me to drive him to a dinner with friends I picked up food from Burger King on the way home, I have never done this alone before!! Big king and co with water.. and cheddar dipping for the fries, very unhealthy, so today I really have to get a grip! I will take a train to Copenhagen now to work for some hours and then join a friend for AW, also not so healthy :) I will try to drink wine instead of beer. I have now booked my first session of Body cavitation, tomorrow at 11, she said I need to choose an area on the body and then take around 5 sessions, so my 3 sessions have now turned into 5.

FEB:
18 hours at the gym / 17 to go
12 hours power walking  / 11 to go
5 sessions Body cavitation / 5 to go

My new plan since Dukan was not for me + results

Since I have stumbled upon a lot of difficulties with the Dukan diet but still think that it has some highlights and I have decided to make my own plan instead, hoping for some even greater results now in Feb.

When I started Dukan in the beginning of Jan I weighed 64,7 kg, now after finishing the attack and cruise phase in 2 weeks and then eating normal food for 2 weeks, and some very unhealthy food to kick start my stomach after a bad constipation my weight is 62,6 kg!

I took my measurement again this morning to look at the damage normal food had made and I was surprised in a good way (comparing with just after the cruise phase 2 weeks ago)

Calves 36,5 cm (-0,5)
Thighs 57 cm (+0,5)
Ass 96 cm (same)
Stomach 81 cm (-1)
Waist 70 cm (+ 1)
Breast 86,5 cm (-0,5)
Upper arm 29,5 cm (-0,5)

Even though I have been eating totally of track from the Dukan diet the last 2 weeks my results stayed almost the same, 4 changed to the better and 2 changed a little bit to the worse, this is really good results and it feels great that I still have lost 2 kg! I now have less to loose to reach my target weight of 57-58 kg.

My new plan Feb:

• Walk 30 min every morning
• Power walk 3 hours a week
• Stick to a low carb diet, but introduce more natural fat, like olive oil
• Avoid sugar as much as possible
• Go to the gym a total of 18 times (in Feb)
• When drinking alcohol trying to drink wine and hard liquor with sugar free soda
• Take 3 sessions of body cavitation
• Go to bed early, as little stress as possible
• 1 pure protein day a week 

With this new Plan I am hoping to loose at least 3 kilos! I dont have so much overweight, so I cant loose weight as fast as people with overweight, wish me good luck!

A hectic but fun week in Stockholm

To round up the week in Stockholm, it was very hectic but I had a lot of fun as well. I worked everyday from 9 until late and in the evenings I went to dinner with a friend, the Henrik Fexeus show, a show at the castle, I did some shopping, not much because of my tight budget, a hat with a rabbit tail and a pair of jeans and finished it all of with the Cruise!
When it came to the food I tried to eat sallad and seafood when possible, I automatically ate less carbs now after the Dukan diet but still had some candy and cheese, my stomach was and is still a disaster. I went to the toilet normal for 2 days after that I went to the toilet every other hour and what came out was like water, I'm up to today still having bad stomach cramps and pain. I still think Dukan is a great method, but not for me, it will probably take some time for my body to recover from the constipation of 10 days...
Though I still want to loose the weight and have a new plan in sight!

The cruise Silja line

Now I am back at home in Malmö after an intensive week in Stockholm, rounded off with a cruise to Åbo Finland on the Sunday evening.
When I got on the cruise I got scared, it was only 19 o clock and most people were really drunk stumbling into the elevators and into their cabins. But these people seamed to disappear and it was actually a lot of fun, it was my first drinking night in 30 days :) probably the only time in my life that I've managed a month without alcohol, thank you Dukan :)
I met new people and danced until 6.30 and the time just ran away, I could have stayed up later but the next day we were going to some events on the boat so I decided to go to bed!

Pet toilet, ok ..?

Beautiful views

I wore the top from HM, it was a big success :)
