A little intro

Well of course it's nearing the end of December so it's time for everyone to start with their new year diets! This has also been me for the last 6 years, a girl on a mission to not get fat.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, big boobs and a peachy bum, sounds lovely and I'll be honest I love my boobs and bum, it has never once bothered me having curves, I much prefer my body shape to a lot of these skinny boney 'role models' we are brainwashed to aspire to.
I am starting this blog as hopefully an incentive diary to support me on my healthy eating throughout 2013, I don't particularly enjoy exercise, I like to power walk and run, I also love my treadmill and exercise bike but the gym, ugh that is just a pain in the arse in my opinion. I used to go to the gym everyday and I found all it was doing was giving me a complex, why do some women go for a workout in full make up? You're supposed to sweat not look nice!! So yes the gym irritates me! 
I don't particularly eat bad, my problem is binging and boy can I binge. Chocolate is my massive downfall, I had a rough time earlier this year and I ate a 500g bar of dairy milk everyday, this obviously resulted in me getting angry and upset with myself and so the vicious circle continued until one day I snapped out of it, I'm not saint, I still eat plenty of chocolate and I always will but I am starting to control my binging through a wake up call which I could only give myself.
I have dieted with weight watchers and found I was hungry all the time. I have also tried slimming world which I found amazing, the food I could eat was great, my meal plans were great and I lost so much weight I felt amazing, the downside was the maintaining of the weight loss and also portion sizes which I struggled to keep to.
In the summer I was introduced to a book called The Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson, what can I say, the book changed the way I look at food for the better, this was my summer holiday from work reading sorted, my whole lifestyle changed, I was less sleepy, less bloated, less moody, I made amazing meals which were full of flavour and very filling. Eating this way increased my fitness levels and gave me a huge confidence boost in actually finally having a clue what I wanted to do lifestyle wise. 
Mark, my partner, still isn't massively keen on the primal eating so I do compromise and occasionally have a pasta dish but honestly I see no problem with this, I understand what I should be eating and I eat as much in the way of primal that I can. I find the research fascinating and most definitely feel healthier since beginning my primal journey in July. Yes there are days when I want to eat junk and even knowing how sluggish I will feel after I will still eat the junk which will in the long run stop a disgusting binge! 
I intend to restart my healthy lifestyle with a strict food and exercise regime by the third week of January, this will be free from family festivities, dinners with friends and also give me chance to revamp some meal plans. I plan to remain eating primal foods but also follow some of the amazing slimming world meals I have previously made. Who doesn't love a syn free chilli?! I have never been a massive fruit fan, I get no enjoyment from fruit but I love making smoothies to get some fruity goodness!!
I suffered quite badly with shin splints from running recently so have been resting my legs on doctors orders for a while now, but thankfully all is good again and I have been doing some daily stretches to discourage any further discomfort. I plan to start my road running up again within the next few weeks, and before then I will be back on my exercise bike whilst watching the soaps!! 
My weight at the minute doesn't seem to bother me as I am not fat but I do need to continue with my healthy lifestyle to keep the fat away, there is no excuse! I have big plans over the next 3-5  years and putting on weight does not come into it! 
Please join me on my healthy journey :)
