Damn Greggs & Their Perfect Location!

So I’m guessing you already get the gist of today’s post. Every day I walk out of the station and there it is (Greggs). It is placed so eloquently outside the bus station, how can I say no? But today I have started my diet (I know I say that every day, but today I really have), so I wasn’t about to let Greggs’ delicious sweet bakery ruin it for me! I got off the bus and exited the bus station, taking long brisk strides with my strong willed mind pushing forwards. My legs of course began to disobey my direct order and started walking towards the bakery (No, No, No). I tried to take control of my legs with my focused mind, but it was as if I were possessed (I was powerless). There was no stopping them, as much as I tried to walk past Greggs, my legs had taken a detour and I was now planted in the bakery and being asked what I wanted. I replied ‘the usual please’ (Yes the f***ing usual!). The lady knew exactly what I was talking about (shock horror) and said that they had almost run out of the ice doughnuts but she had saved one for me as she knew I would be in to get one. She then put it in a bag and made my latte (Yes that’s right, even the Greggs workers know I have no will power!). I am such a regular I may as well start getting discount vouchers. I felt like a golden customer! (This was not good). But then again they should commend my loyalty! I left the bakery with half a doughnut sticking out of my mouth, as a lady in jogging gear with toned arms and a perked bum walked past looking at me in disgust. (How dare she look at me like that, as whose fault is this really? Was it me the innocent bystander who happened to get drawn in to their excellent location and yummy cakes? Or was it Greggs and their knowing of my lack of willpower and ridiculous sweet tooth? (Exactly) There is no moral to this story; I just wanted to let you know I still haven’t started this stupid diet!

I Guess One Binge Won't Hurt...

So it’s now day two of my healthy eating. With dedication running through my veins, I strutted to work. I loaded energising music in my ears and downed my dodgy green diet shake in one. I felt as if I could conquer the world...until lunchtime came. So I looked at my lunch fund (Damn only £10 left to last me a week) and I began mulling it over in my mind (should I spend £2 a day or spend it all now on one big lunch?). 

*              *             *

I walked out of Burger King with 4 Whopper burgers in my takeaway bag worth exactly £10 ((Bargain!)For those who don't know, The Whopper is the King of the Day on Wednesdays). So I sat at my desk and stuffed my way through mayo, gherkin and beefy goodness. I couldn't have possible been happier, until I finished. I looked at mountain of Burger King wrappers, and instead of feeling guilty and shit, pride welled up inside. To be honest it was hard not to be impressed (Come on, 4 Whoppers!). Only problem was my stomach had bloated to the size of a football and it had become hard to conceal (damn that greasy food to hell). I've never in my life wanted people to assume I was eating for two, but as I walked home I cradled my tummy like an expecting mother, in shear hope that people would think I was pregnant! I kid you not it honestly looked as if I was carrying twins. Tomorrow surely must be better for my diet...Let's hope!

My Gym Disaster!

So it was my first day at the gym, and I didn't manage to go through with it. Yes I paid a lot of money to join, yes I had a 30 min induction with a personal trainer and yes I had all my training gear on. But I just couldn’t! I can imagine I’m not the only woman in the world that has walked into the gym, thought nope and turned back around and made a beeline straight for the door! As I darted for the door, I hoped the trainer wouldn't spot me and telepathically know I was the person that had booked that 7PM slot. As soon as I was out of spotting distance and safely planted in town, I made a short pit stop at Mac Donalds! Ashamed? I think so! So I ate my two 'Big Tasty' burgers, that weren't in fact that tasty and walked towards the bus station. Yes I felt defeated, guilty and disappointed in myself, but then I remembered a crucial fact! There’s always tomorrow! So everyone that’s my amazing start to my health new life style! I’m thinking I’m going to have to try a little harder….
