I haven’t been writing a lot about my diet lately, although I haven’t lost of all those pregnancy kilos. For some time I just haven’t really cared about it. I’ve worked out as  normal and been eating a healthy diet but the kilos remains. As always with travelling, I gained weight whilst being in Paris, [...]

I can’t get into my favourite shirt from Patrizia Pepe. It’s a champagne coloured silk number which I wore on one my first dates with Reinout. At that point I was about 50 kg’s and looking good. Now, 5 kg’s more, with a fat ass and sagging boobs I am a far cry from that [...]

To my horror I’ve gained 3 kg’s after the holiday. This despite regular runs in 30 degrees heat. This despite living on salad and scallops. I guess the culprit in this drama must be the champagne! As this is not something I’m prepared to cut out of my staple diet I shall have to turn [...]

This is officially my last week of dieting. This would be the week I would reach my target weight of 52kg’s, my pre-pregnancy weight. It’s been a major goal for me since February. To loose almost 20 kg’s in less than 3 months. With a strict diet from Monday to Thursday (see previous post) and [...]

We didn’t launch our site last week as anticipated, but things are looking good for this week.

But I also feel that working long hours, coupled with diet and training…and blogging [...]

For the first time in months I start to feel hungry. An orange for breakfast is not meeting my food requirements. I use all the will power I have to extend my morning without eating. Orange before 10 am means that I will be hungry again before lunch. It’s true that after rapid weight loss [...]

I have reasons to be happy on at least two accounts. I slept for a whole 9 hours until 10 AM. It felt fantastic. When I woke up for one of the feedings at 8 in the morning I was just too tired to drag myself to the gym. Instead I went back to sleep [...]

My hormones are playing games with me. Although I slept, with interruptions, for 7 hours, I till feel exhausted. By 1 o ‘clock Victoria came home. She suggested us going to the Bagel Bar. I had earlier agreed to making Wednesday afternoons our day. A day for lunching and shopping in town. But with a [...]

When you are pregnant it’s evident you will gain weight. They say the norm is about 12 kg. In my first pregnancy I gained about 17 kg and in this pregnancy almost 20. Towards the end I refused to even go on the scale knowing I would become depressed being faced with a pointless number.
