Hi everyone,

spice- count me in on the chocolate addiction! I am utterly such a pig when chocolate is around but I've been really proud of myself since the challenge has started. Theres been half a twirl and a picnic in the door of the fridge and I have kept my hands off it...well I did pick up the twirl, looked at the fat table and put it back. Selena isn't a sweet tooth so when our nephew and niece come over will get them to down it so it doesn't go on my hips. Hope I dont cave!

HPs Mum - thats fantastic news, Congrats on your its a great start to the year and an incentive to eat healthy!

I haven't used calorie king before, I've signed up with myfitnesspal and they've calculated I can have 1200calories a day. I thought that was a bit strict but when you start making healthy food choices its not that bad at all. I've made a good start, had my warm water with lemon juice, cereal and heaps more water, I'll have a late lunch of a ham and salad wrap again, its really satisfying for me and I think I will ride my bike this afternoon and maybe a wii session. I dont have a wii fit yet so I just do the boxing and tennis on the regular sports game, it gets my blood pumping. Looking forward to getting a wii fit sometime soon. Because I work shift work I've decided to do something outdoorsy when I'm home in the afternoons but when I'm working an evening shift I can have a wii session in the morning or late at night. that way I can get fresh air exercise whenever I can and wii in between. Selena is supportive, she cooks most of the time and has modified her cooking. She wants to lose a few kilos too so it works well for us both. I hope everybody is doing really well and if you've fallen off the wagon just jump back on or chase it down the street until you catch it as I have had to do so many times before lol. Bye for now
