I aspire to be thin in my wedding photos. Actually, I’ve aspired to be thin for a while now, but this time I have a definite goal and deadline by which time I intend to have lost weight. My goal is to be back down to a size 12, and re-attain my pre-university physique. To that end, I’ve bumped up the amount of exercise I’m getting. However, I started increasing my activity level before Christmas and only managed a slight decrease in girth. I’ve therefore decided to take more drastic measures. I’m going on a diet.
I really hate dieting. I like food, I don’t enjoy the feeling of hunger, plus I have to be really disciplined about it to ensure I don’t go down the checking-my-weight-every-day, only-consuming-45-calories-a-day, borderline-anorexia path (been there once before – don’t want to do it again). Furthermore, I’m sure I’m not the only person who finds that the minute I’ve decided to diet, my head fills itself with images of cream cakes, crisps and the like.
To make the whole thing more manageable (and less depressing), I’ve decided to try it for a month and then go back to my usual eating habits in March (I’m confident that the exercise will stop me piling the pounds back on again). The observant among you may notice this means I’m dieting for one month, and that one month just happens to be the shortest of the year…
