100 and 1

 This is my 101 posting here, lets celebrate it with this funny picture of me and L.

 And I have excellent news about my fasting! My forecast came true that I don't need to do this for 7 days. Reason for that is, that my body weight has come down so fast (now 5,5). So from today am having juice and from tomorrow porridge, fruits and salad! Ta-daa! Am happy that by time we come back Friday, I can all ready eat what I want. 

Sunday and Monday

 Sunday morning I felt like I have really bad hangover, but luckily it past fast. Day went as usually with some gymnastics and lecture. Had time just to do nothing. Around five we went for little walk with A. After that I started to feel really bad and nausea.  So I got some tea and honey too.

 Monday (today) morning I felt really good and now everybody got some lemon water too. From 11 we all had tea. Now a little nap and later maybe to spa for swimming. 

Believe or not I don't feel hungry and this morning I have lost all together 3,9 kg, what is all ready more than I was expecting.

Saturday we did long 18 km walk through forest and alongshore. It was sunny and warm and really felt like holiday.

trip to Saaremaa

On the way to Västriku we visited Pädaste estate. ***** very, very nice!

  Today we arrived to Saaremaa to the camp place and am so surprised that our house is so cute!  Its so me! We also had first meeting and am surprised again. Its not just fat people here. Most of them are here because of the positive and life changing feeling they got last time. Lectures are also more for mind, but more of them later.

   From practical side I started getting in to the mood yesterday. Had fruit and yogurt day + one sugar bagel. This morning just in case porridge with orange and banana for lunch. And from this on, just water. So long, no hunger and am looking forward for tomorrow.

What to take with you?

Lots of warm clothes
hot water bottle (middle in top, made by my sister)
swimsuit, selection of my favorite tea, notebook, laptop, some books to read (not Hemingway and others who write all the time about eating), sticks for Nordic walking (nice to take them out to walk sometimes too :)

Did I forgot something?

What will I do in Fasting camp?

Daily routine:

7.30 - 10.00 checkup by Doctor

10.00 - 11.00 gymnastics

11.00 - 12.00 lecture ( about fasting and nutrition)

12.00 - 19.00 free time, hiking, swimming, sauna, curative measures

19.00 - 20.00 conversation

20.00 sauna

For me this will be more like sport camp, but of course its all unforced, if you don't feel like it you don't need to do all of it. I have heard that first 3 days can be bad. But I hope I can get best out of the clean countryside by hiking and having some relaxing spa on my free time.

Fasting camp

This Friday am going to fasting camp for one week. That means 7 days on water. How did I get myself into this?
It all started in January when 2 of my good friends decided to go to fasting camp. I said its stupid to think that one week on water will make you slimmer and happier and more energetic person, if you continue living in your comfort zone after that. But as they were convinced that this will be so life changing and great and I could only say what I have been reading about it (and that was not much) I decided to go there with them. So then I can say, been there - done that and that's waist of your time and money.

But after promising to go there I started to read more about it and trying to get myself emotionally ready, because lets face it, 1 week with out food is quite hard thing to do.

And I stop eating potato chips! I used to have 3 big bags (about 1 kg) per week, what made 4 kg per month. Its all crazy when you stop thinking of it. Its over 3 months now and am still struggling every time when am in food shop.

So this will be my experiment for getting to know if fasting is so great as they say. They say it helps against most of health problems, you will lose appetite against unhealthy food, clears your head and gives you lots of energy. And yes, makes you to lost weight, even am most skeptical about how long that will stay.

More about my experiment you can read during next 2 weeks :)

"who's that amazing girl over there" "oh that's katarina, but she's way out of your league"

so, what did you get?

Spring is here!

And now we can start to wear big and crazy rings again with out worrying how to fit glows on. Some of my favorites from Carrotbox blog.



Cupcakes rings, hmm... ring and dinner in same! One day when I have my own jewellery cafe this will be in menu!


The idea is not new and I was in one jewellery cafe in Potsdam, witch was not so excellent, but I heard there is one really good one in some were else in Germany. But I think the concept is brilliant! Its always nice to have cup of cafe and something next to it or just have your lunch middle of gorgeous jewellery! J could bake fresh cake every morning and make soup of a day, and I could try to make carrot pie or fruit salad ( nothing complicated, please:)


These look eatable too!


This I would wear as a hat!

There are so many great food blogs, but looking them makes me so hungry and am not that great in kitchen. I just don't feel like it to cook just for myself. So I was so happy when J was visiting me and made me some duck with orange risotto! Hi is just a Wizard in kitchen! And I made us dessert: strawberry's with whipped cream!
