    Ah well - I gained 600g (but given I weighed myself at the end rather than start of the day it is probably just food and fluid "gained"). Good thing is my measurements are static.

    Considering I had a wedding to go to this past week as well as only having been to the gym once and eating silly stuff on at least 2 occasions I am happy with my "progress" LOL!

    Next week - here I come!

    I'm happy I've lost another 600grams so in total I've lost 1.5kg's which I think is great, I lost another 3cms all up and that makes 10cms total in over the two weeks.

    For this week I need to get back to drinking more water again, I fell into old ways with drinking coke Zero this week, but I must admit not as much as normal.

    hugs xoxo

    Two things I learned last night...

    1. NEVER eat processed, greasy food after two weeks of eating healthy - it upsets your tummy.
    2. NEVER walk too far from a toilet once you have eaten said food - especially don't walk 5km from your house because your digestive system will inevitably want to get rid of said food - QUICK.

    I don't think I have ever walked home so fast. In fact - I RAN up the hill.

    I was feeling bummed about not losing anything - so I had a moment of "I don't care what I eat tonight"... So I had TWO pieces of KFC chicken...

    NEVER again!!!

    Consider me cured of ever eating BAD food again!! It's totally not worth it!

    I walked 6km last night!! Most of it was up hill as well! I am feeling fitter because walking up hills takes nowhere near the same amount of effort as it did a month ago. I walked about 2km and then I was busting to go to the toilet so I went back home and then decided I hadn't walked enough - so I went back out again!! I walked all the way to my Mum's house and arrived shortly after dark.

    I walked up one HUGE hill and the sunset was glorious!!! The endorphins must have kicked in (combined with the uplifting song I had playing on my iPod) because I haven't felt that HAPPY and SATISFIED and PROUD in weeks. It was a great moment - a great motivator to keep going.

    Off to cheat a little and jump on the scales - I wonder if it did anything....

    Amy, not good to weigh yourself all the time, your weight really can fluctuate each day. Well done for 6kms! Very proud of you, hope you ate really well too!

    Things here are good with me, I have saved 30 points this week and weigh in for WW is tomorrow morning. Of course I would never use them today! I don't have to anyway but they are there if I want a treat. To tell you the truth, after almost 4 weeks on WW, I don't even feel like having anything fatty or sugary. I do enjoy a glass of wine or a nip of bicardi with diet cola at night now and again. And of course I love those lolly snakes (4 is 1 point). I don't even miss chocolate and I haven't eaten it now for 4 weeks.

    Anyway, feeling fantastic and mighty motivated, my willpower is strong.

    Hope everyone else is having a good week!

    Well done on all the excercise girls, I am getting in a walk every day and some times go out for a extra one. last night I went for a cycle to the shop with my DH I was so nervous as it was dark and I think the last time i was on a bike it was about 2 years ago. I felt great though oh and i did some tummy exercises with the kids they thought it was great as well.

    hopefully ill see a loss this week as well.

    Rhianon - I exercise before eating breakfast. My theory is that my body will use all it's fat stores for fuel whereas if I ate breakfast first, it would use that for energy and then I'd be hungry again really quickly! If I have to eat first, I'll wait about an hour before exercising.

    OMG where is everyone????

    I miss the busy thread Well having an OK day here ate reasonable well although did take the girls to macca's and i did have a med chips but i resisted a burger and drink and had a garden salad and water to go with it so i guess that's an accomplishment for me I also did a whole hour on the wii fit freestyle step plus and managed to do 6000 steps. I also did 2 sets of 12x lunges, bicep curls, squats etc and a few other bits with my 2kg weights which aren't feeling half as heavy as they used to.

    Well feeling very good about myself today which is awesome as generally i am a bit hard on myself but i went and had a Brazilian, Full Leg and Eyebrow wax then had my hair coloured so i feel like a brand new woman. Also my clothes are feeling better on. They are by no way too big but my love handles/muffin top isn't as obvious and i am generally just feeling more comfortable in them. I wonder if DH will notice the change in me when he comes home Fri. I think i will be a little disheartened if he doesn't. On the phone last night though he asked me if I'd broke 70kg which was my mini goal b4 he came home and i said i hadn't weighed in yet. He then said "oh well you'll still look big to me anyway as all the vietnamese girls are tiny" I mean WTF I know he didn't mean it nastily but still to say that to me when he knows how hard i am trying is really horrible. Needless to say i went to bed feeling a bit sorry for myself.

    Is everyone who is not posting still doing the challenge? I know Daintree and HP's mum have left BB but where is everyone else?

    I've lost a bit of weight. I think I've hit a plateau with it all considering how much I've lost so far, today I'm off to join the gym - a girlfriend is wanting out of the last few months of her contract so I'll take that over for her
