I stood on my scale few days ago hoping for a miracle, hoping and praying that the figure i would see would encourage me enough to push on till i meet my 2012 year end target………..i was not surprised to see that i had gained weight………yes i have. Added 2.something kg which was a reality check for me.
In the midst of all the compliments on my new body and all the partying this season, with me eating all the goodies and drinking champagne everywhere- boasting i workout alot and would burn out all the calories, the monster called calories have found a way to stay back in my body.
What am i getting at; THERE IS A THIN LINE BETWEEN AN IDEAL WEIGHT AND BEING OVERWEIGHT.
Be careful what you eat this season. Don’t get carried away. It is easy to say you are on recess and would resume your healthy lifestyle in Jan- New year resolution. Trust me, it is harder that way. Make a cautious effort to start now.
It took me only over a week to gain 2kg back imagine and i was not entirely bad and worked out at least 3times this week………..Think about the person who do not care what goes in and do not do any form of exercise. Get on your scale today and see for yourself.

With the New Year coming fast and the inevitable resolutions to lose weight, if you hear any family, friends or colleagues talking about wanting to lose a few pounds in 2013, we would love it if you recommended they check out our blog for inspiration or sign them up FADD if they need or want to join our weightloss community. We offer Christmas Vouchers which would give them a taste of what we offer packaged as a gift for the season.
You can be rest assured they are in good hands……
My favorite tip for the holidays. ‘NEVER ARRIVE AT A PARTY HUNGRY’. FOCUS ON HAVING FUN AND CATCHING UP WITH FRIENDS THAN OVERINDULGING………..’COS SINCERELY IT AINT WORTH IT AT ALL. Holidays are almost over and then what? REALITY CHECK
We are having the FADD Fitness Party- Christmas Edition this Saturday the 22nd of Dec. somewhere on the mainland, Lagos Nigeria. 2hrs of having some fun with friends, breaking some sweat and zapping some calories. Inbox me on iamafadd@gmail.com if you want to come. You don’t want to miss it.
Peace out!
Same dress in size 18(Jan 2012) and size 10(August 2012)
I totally agree…never go to a party hungry…especially in this era where small chops / canape’s are the order of the day. #SayNoToJunkFood
u lost all the weight in just 8months.im impressed
You are just an inspiration to me. Great job you are doing for yourself and others!
Wow, I just read your weight loss journey on bellanaija and I am sooooo motivated, I used to be a size 10 till I had my baby last year and all of a sudden I see myself struggling into a size 12 dress, I cant fit into any of my old dresses and most times have to pass on occasions cos of what to wear.
Now I really want to go back to size 10 but i found out i still eat a lot cos i am still nursing my son, i tried cutting ddown on cabs but it hasnt been easy and gym for me have not worked out cos of my busy schedule (i know i have to figure out a way around it) cos i need to go back to being the me that i used to know………
I am really really inspired
I like what you are doing….liek your blog
Would take my diet plan serious this year
