I'm eating less and less these days, trying to get rid of the last stone or two that will put me in slimsville. I'm also exercising more (I can do 100 sit-ups now ^^). This certainly seems to be having an adverse effect on me. My dizzy spells are becoming worse. Pretty much every time I stand up, or walk too quickly, my vision blacks out and I have to stop or I'll fall over. It's still bearable at this point, but it is getting worse.
The thing is, I need to lose this weight. I'm sick of being a fat kid. I'm a great, great deal thinner than I was (I've lost almost 5 stone/70 pounds), but it's still not good enough. It's becoming increasingly hard to shed this flab, and it's fucking frustrating.
It's also ridiculously hot, which makes exercise more difficult and makes me want to eat more. Weather is certainly not helping me. I want to start swimming. It's great exercise, and heat isn't a problem with it. However, without a job I can't really afford to go more than once a week.
And now I'm sitting here hungry. There's a banana, but I think it's been sitting in the fridge a little too long. I'll just wait until lunch I think.

And I am still overweight. It's vastly diminished, but there's still some fat present on these bones.

For eating . . . I had a dream about making a grapefruit smoothie (Use at least one grapefruit, grapefruit juice, ice, maybe some other crap) It might be pretty good.

Drink lots of fluids, and I mean lots
And exercise far away from a a bathroom, so when you have to piss, you have to sprint all the way there in under 5 minutes.
Jogging/running is really good if you want to lose weight but gain muscle.
Another thing that's probably keeping you from actually losing weight is that your actually losing fat, but gaining muscle. Which is a good thing, because girls don't care if your a big guy, if you have massive pecks, they'll be like OMG! you're hot! lets go back to your place! well, not exactly, but you get the picture.
