The Chubby Girls story

I am a chubby girl.

Not the kind of girl that has a few extra pounds, but the girl who has a few truckloads of extra pounds.


Now before you self righteous readers out there start telling me off for being negative, let me explain myself. I am 5 foot 3... well... 5 foot 2 according to my mother but no one is going to take that one inch away form me ! Anyway, I am 5 foot 3 and I am at this point in time, 79 kilograms. Which is pretty hefty for a short girl like me. I don't have kids to blame for my hips or thyroid problems to blame for my excess weight. In fact, I have no one to blame but myself.

Let me tell you something about myself. I love food ! No, I love flavours and the act of eating and stuffing my face with yummy guilty pleasures. I also love my alcohol. Probably more than I should. I hate working out because and if possible I'd love to go for surgery to remove all the fats in my body. But... I am poor ... well not poor but I can't afford it and I know my Asian family as well as my kiwi partner would never let me hear the end of it.

My mom is Catholic so there is always that "You should be grateful Jesus gave you a body, imagine all the other people out there with pain and suffering!"

I know Mom !

That won't stop me from complaining anyway.

Going back to the blog... well the purpose of this blog is to keep me accountable and would hopefully give me enough discipline to stay on Atkins. or any bloody diet for that matter. Oh and all you people who think that there is nothing wrong with me or that I should exercise more and eat healthy blah blah blah... This is my blog and apparently not everyone has the same mind set you. I am still searching for the Jedi in me, let me know if you find it.

ANYWAY ...

Today was only a preview as to how hard my journey on Atkin is going to be. Firstly because I don't eat often enough and secondly, now that I am aware that I am suppose to stop eating certain things, I now crave it more than before. FML.

Below are the links and information as to what Atkin is:-

Now I am not doing the proper Atkins/Induction because I don't want to hate myself more than I already do.


This is me, in all my chubby glory. God I'd love to shave some fat off those legs right about now !
