okay i know i've bitched about my weight before. So what - no one's asking you to read my journal entries now innit!? *grin*

went for first assesment with personal trainer yesterday at the gym. According to him, (no duh), i could do with some weight loss, something like 10 pounds innitially then moving on. *aurgh* and i've got a date that i'm due to look good by - the 28th this month. so its going to be majorly crash dieting for me, till the 28th, then careful as to not to yoyo back to fatness again, i've gotta follow a strict regimen. so i'm going on the ATkins Diet, which promises fast (though short term) results to achieve "good-lookingness" by the 28th, and then moving to the Zone Diet afer that to maintain it. Anyways apparently on the Atkins you could lose up to 14 pounds in two weeks? I dunnoe, will give it a go though, and we'll see. Going to do abit of shopping today to get my food list together. Damn it, apparently very few foodstuff out there contain absolutely no carbohydrates?! *laughs* this isnt going to be easy i tell ya.

So i need motivation to stay away from those lovely chocolate biscuits in the fridge. Any suggestions?

oh and What is it thats so impotant on the 28th? I'll tell ya if i get through to it.

anyhoo enough bout that, Valentines day is coming up!!! and i've no one to be with. *sigh* my Ex is going to Singapore for the MTV Asia Awards, the lucky thing has VIP passes and stuff, if it wasnt for my Dog Show no the 15th i'd be able to join him. boo. Doubt i'd celebrate anything with workaholic boy, he's not called since sunday. bugger off, i say. any man who wont make the time for me isnt worth mine. (am i not right, ladies!? *grin*)

looks like Andrea will sit this (commercialised) Lovers Day out. anyone care to join me for Vodka, Bicardi and a Karaeoke set instead?

Through diet alone, you'll never achieve healthly, permanent weight loss. You must eat a balanced, moderated diet and exercise...exercise...exercise. That's not to say that cutting back on the carbs won't help, but don't think some miracle diet alone will do the trick. I wish you luck.

But to tell you the truth, based on your pics, I don't think you need to lose weight.

You? Andrea? Need to loose weight? Speak to your personal trainer again, maybe he is too used to 5 footers who weighs 65kgs and forgotten that you are 5'9"......don't give up cheese cakes n Belgian Chocs!

You know the inventor of the Atkins diet just died? he weighed about 120kgs at the autopsy!
