Why hello there, SIZE 8!!

Yes, I put on a size 8 pair of jeans today, and they fit!!! Even with my horrible week diet wise and a pasta lunch... I fit into the siz 8 jeans. I won't lie it was a bit of a squeeze but they did up and I think if I fast a couple of days they wouldn't have been so tight. This does not make me happy though. I feel fatter than ever, I haven't done a fast in ages and I'm still struggling to exercise with this damn back injury. I'm total disbelief that the size 8 fit me!!

I get my car next week which means one thing for me, I can go to the gym before/after work (leave a gym bag in the boot of my car). I am aiming for 4 days a week for an hour.  I think my best bet is to get up at 6am, go to gym for an hour or so then get ready to be at work at 8am. Then I can walk Lilly when I get home before it gets too dark. I never thought getting a car would mean I could exercise more, but there isn't really anywhere I feel safe walking by myself near my house as the streets aren't well lit and there are lots of bushes, so I tend to drive into town to walk Lilly where the streets are well lit and there are people to witness if something happens to me.

Okay so I haven't had the best week, I have spent most of it sick with the flu, and because I have no sick leave with my new job I can't really afford to have a few days off to get better. My boss in convinced that it isn't the flu and that it may be glandular fever, because of how run down I have been in the last few weeks (no thanks to the insane hours I have done at work). And I think this may sound like the craziest thing ever, but f**k I hope it is.. My sister had it last year and she went from a size 14-16 to a size 10. and I really wanna drop that sort of weight with such little effort, as my sister is a pig and eats SOOOO much crappy food.

I have found the best inspirational tool EVER: Post it notes :) I have one under my desk at work that says "say no to hot dogs and yes to size 8" which I find stops me from all sorts of naughty food. I have them on my mirror too, mostly telling me I can do better than this. My next post it note attack i think will be in my wallet or someting, so when I go to open my wallet to see what money I have for lunch I can shut it again and have a cup of tea. I might actually go have a cup of tea now, seeming I ate almost all my calories today at lunch (damn you delicious pasta). Need something to keep me full until tomorrow...
Stay skinny girls!!
