I haven’t been posting on this much lately, but I sure have been focused. After my two sessions with my dietician I now have an eating and training plan. This has so far resulted in an eight kilo drop! Amazing for me, I haven’t been at this weight in around three years. I have 31 kilos to my goal and everyday is one step closer!

Meals for today: Breakfast: 1 small bowl of low fat yoghurt and muesli. Didn’t get a chance to have a lunch break at work but had an early dinner. Dinner (BBQ with my partners family): Chicken breast and beef sausage with bean salad. And some fruit for tea. Not my healthiest of days but I still didn’t not consume carbs.

A little bit of background info - in 2011 I was diagnosed with insulin resistance, which is the cause to why I find it hard to lose weight. I am...
