Well, I just came up here (that’s my office; I have “Winners and Losers” running on TV in the background, and it’s really quite cosy here…) after dinner to do a bit of housekeeping on my blogs (like approving comments, and updating plugins), when I thought I might just all tell you about what happened a few days ago when I came up here. See whether that will put you off! 
Because, a few days ago, also after dinner (all cooked for a healthy weight loss, of course! ), I did what I sometimes do and went up for a bit of housekeeping on my blogs (yep, just like today). Only this time I took a glass of red wine with me (naughty, I know). And, as lazy as I am sometimes, I drank the glass and left it sitting next to the computer when I went to bed.
Well, and in the early morning hours of the next day, I crept up the stairs half asleep to turn on the computer and check what needed doing that day, and my eyes found the wine glass – and what was in it:
Yuck Yuck Yuck!!!! I had seen this little sucker a couple of weeks earlier and tried to kill it, but it scuttled away faster than I could throw my weight around and hid between some unmovable furniture. Well, I had him this time!!! I couldn’t even finish him off this time, I just threw him out in the garden, for all I know he might be back in the house looking for revenge (or more wine!!).
Unfortunately this episode has NOT put me off the odd glass of healthy red wine. I mean, once you wash the glass (properly!), you are good to go again, right?
Anyway, I thought I am going to share this with you all, it was just so – I don’t know – weird. And Yuck. And shocking. All in one.
And for all of you that are wondering whether I have lost any weight yet, no I haven’t. 
Still the same, I’m afraid. At least it hasn’t gone up! To be honest, I am sitting here and it is 10:49 pm and thoughts are circling through my mind about going downstairs into the kitchen and making myself something to snack, and I will NOT GIVE IN to those thoughts today. I have noticed that I always start to think about food late at night, especially when I am up doing work on my computer. The best way to avoid this is to head straight to bed. I ask myself – do I really want this food? NOOOO! I don’ t need this. I am full. I am satisfied. All I want is to go to bed and get a good nights sleep, because I am tired. I will be better off for it tomorrow. So all I will do when I go down is brush my teeth and hit the hay. Promise. No empty carbs late at night.
Talking straight to myself in my head when the FOOD CRAVING hits seems to help me just a little to stop this trip into the kitchen late at night. I have actually managed to TURN AROUND a couple of times when I was already half in the kitchen to grab some fatty food, and I am very proud of that. I guess this is reason winning over emotion. So maybe I am making progress… ?
Nite Nite… (no wine glass up here tonight!)
Thanks for sharing this pictures…… Today I won’t eat anything So i think my weight will be loose. In this picture cockroach really enjoy drinking red wine……….

Some of us don’t really know what exactly our diets should contain. For the sake of dieting we just avoid the basic stuff that we know we should. Whatever we do without complete info over it will lead us on a completely different track. I would rather suggest everyone to consult a dietician or your gym trainer before entering a diet plan.
Instead of loosing I had gained weight while following that rubbish diet plan which I made. The biggest mistake I did was I did not include fruits and salads in my chart. I was completely starving apart from having my food (3 times a day). I was very upset to see the scale going up every time I weighed myself. Then finally I decided to consult a dietician to get a good diet plan. Now I have lost almost 4 inches in 2 months and have a good figure comparatively.
Well done, and keep going!
Zero figure is in trend these days. Those who already have a maintained figure still keep dieting in order to have a zero figure. Especially girls keep checking out each other in terms of their figure. You should listen to the way they shout when they see even half a pound of increase in their weight. It’s not difficult to loose weight till the time you are focused and continue your diet till the end date.
I personally find a zero figure way too thin. I don’t mind a little bit of something on me. Sticks and bones can’t be that great to cuddle up to!!
Petra, that is so funny!
You just made my day! Is the little sucker drunk? 
Anyways, about the food craving thing, sometimes it’s all in the mind. You are full yet you still imagine food and think you’re hungry again 
I agree that talking straight to yourself can help when you are in that moment. Like this post!
Everyone’s different in this world. Digestive system is not the same for everybody. Its better that we do not rely on anybody’s diet plan. Dietician try to study our daily routine and then accordingly they give us a diet chart depending on our food habits. So instead of following others diet plans, it would be feasible if we take the help of a dietician.
I LOVE red wine, but I can’t say that if I saw that I wouldn’t be turned off from it forever!
I love red wine minus the Critters, a glass a day helps me to wine down from a long day.

You mean “wind” down, or is this deliberate?
I’ve read a lot of articles online about dieting and weight loss. You are the most honest of all
Good read!
lol
) it looks good in the picture, but i’m pretty sure I’d like to drink my wine without bugs:D red wine is healthy, but i’m pretty sure that bug isn’t, if you think where it’s been and what it ate

Some of the dieticians even ask you to eat as much as you feel like. The only thing that they ask you is to change your eating timings i.e. you need to have high fiber food but only according to the timings they suggest for you. It completely depends on the body of a person following the diet. So I say that consulting a dietician is a must.
Jack@cosplay costumes´s last [type] ..Hello world!
I am on a diet. I have hired a dietician who has suggested me a good plan. Surprisingly I am not supposed to starve at all. The only thing she has changed is the timings. She has suggested me specific time where I am supposed to avoid eating and the time I am should eat. I am loosing on my weight drastically and now I am back to my normal figure. It feels so good.
Great work, you can be very proud!
I am tired about reading all the blogs and articles on how to loose weight. After removing my frustration by dumping all my diet charts into the dustbin I realized it’s more important for you to be positive about loosing weight than just following a particular exercise or a diet and thinking it won’t be effective. Think that you will be able to achieve your goal in losing weight and see the difference yourself. Trust me! You will surely loose drastically.

Including a lot of herbs and fresh vegetables and fruits is the only solution. Avoid consuming alcohol and stop smoking as far as possible. Weight Loss is not a one day program so sincere dedication and efforts would help in reducing more. Also avoidance of sugar to the extent possible would be beneficial for you and also a walk of 30 minutes would add cherry on the cake.
That is disgusting! I hate roaches.. I’m not sure I could be hungry after seeing that!
Are you one of them who cannot just ignore if they see hot and spicy food cooked around? If yes, then it would be very difficult for you to reduce on weight if you are trying to do so. A strong will power, 100% dedication and focus towards all the calorie intake food will surely help you to loose weight at the earliest.
Oh, that’s just gross! I don’t want to freak you out, but they say if you see a roach, that means that there are 10 more around the place that you don’t see.

Weight Loss is something that everybody is after. Many of us have shared our views about weight loss on this blog. But I think everybody responds differently to different type of food. And it would be better if we share our true picture with our dietician and they would be the best person to guide us on how to loose weight quickly.
The blogs name itself says “healthy diet weight loss”. That means that in order to reduce your weight you need to go on a diet. But diet does not means that you actually need to starve. It says that you need to have some healthy diet which will help you to remain stuffed but at the same time will also help you to shed some extra pounds of your body.
Ugghs! That’s an absolute nightmare. Sincerely I have found your diet advice very helpful and honest. Keep the good work
I like you articles about dieting and weight loss. Nice job.

Looking at that crawling creature will definitely make you lose your appetite and losing weight wouldn’t be a problem anymore. But its a good thing it is only on the glass and not on your food!
