    Weighed myself this morning and my weight hasn't shifted for 2 weeks!!

    Yesterday I moved a heap of wood from the back garden to the patio for the fire so I'm counting that as exercise!!

    Organic - you sound very organised and motivated!!
    Amanda - I have oats for breakfast too!!
    Sally - I'm aiming to try and walk more too - the weather does make it hard though, especially the cold. I always put stuff off cause I don't want DS to get too cold.

    Kaz- i know what you mean about the cold. Have found shopping centres with covered car parks are good for rainy days (except that DD1 runs away from me).


    Didn't get to dancing class last night as DH has decided he can only take care of girls if DD2 doesn't cry

    I took 12 months to lose all but 5kg after having DD1 (I had put on 30kg) and then I got pregnant immediately so have a feeling I will have trouble with the last 5kg this time too!! Even though I lost the first 10kg easily this time.

    Have discovered Mission wraps (am sure there are plenty of other brands too) which I am using in replace of bread. I find I get too hungry if I have no starchy carbs when b'feeding and this way I can fill them up with meat and salad (or leftovers...looking forward to trying this).

    mmm...the wraps sound healthy and delish!! Are they like mountain bread at all? How do you b'feed and not eat carbs??? Sounds impossible. How are you going with the five small meals a day so far?

    I think the last 5kg is always the most stubborn!

    I went for a walk today but it was only a quick one. Should be within my points for today too.

    It is impossible, for me anyway. I tried to cut them out last time andlast two days i have since figured its probably not exactly a healthy thing to try.

    Will end up with having 3 small ,eals, one large and a snack by end of today.

    Dinner is Chicken Tikka Masala: i use chicken bok choy, onion and capsisum. Cook with almost whole jar of sharwoods curry paste and add remainder of jar 5 mins before serving. I cook it with cream or just with water if trying to aviod greasy or fatty foods. ATM am not avioding fats though.

    Can I join in now I have had my bubba? I want to get to about 65kgs and am currently 81kgs (I honestly have no idea where I am hiding about 15 of them.. I don't *look* too 'overweight' and apparently 60kgs is ideal for my height and build).

    Hopefully the bfing will help but I will be doing it mainly through exercise because I don't want to risk my milk supply with anything too restrictive food wise. Gonna hit the wiifit and active hard tomorrow now my lochia rubra is over too.

    So - target is 16kgs! Method is exercise!
