Drop a Dress Size in 6 Weeks Diet: Update - Vlog

I am now halfway into my 6 week diet in order to drop a dress size back down to a size 10. I have to admit, I've been fairly rubbish at sticking to the diet. I have been going out alot to eat, shop and mostly drink. Beer is not a dieters best friend, nor is it my wallet's. I always knew that I would be rubbish though. I'm the type of person who I really good at sticking to a diet for a week and then I get bored and go to Mc Donalds. The past 3 weeks have absolutely flown by I would say week 1 was my best for dieting, week 3 was my best for exercise, and week 2 was fairly rubbish overall.

I am really pleased with the level of exercise I have been committing to though. I can tell that I've been working out because my muscles are constantly sore, which is strangely satisfying. I've been bike riding, doing a combination of the exercises detailed in my first diet vlog and yoga and walking my brother to and from school each day so overall I feel I've been pretty consistent.

I dont exactly feel like I've lost any weight, and definately not half a dress size. From this half way point I'm feeling pretty dubious about my ability to shrink back into last years jeans without some pretty intensive dieting and workouts over the next 3 weeks. Plus with Christmas coming right at the end of the 6 weeks, I'm going to have to eat like a shrimp to actually succed.

And so, I am feeling the strongest I have for a long time, and I actully have a bit of muscle definition in my upper arms. I'm pleased with my progress, even if I'm not going to arrive in Gisborne looking like a super skinny model, I will still be relatively fit and strong. Hopefully if I just wear a large sarong, noone will notice my failure!
