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.
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.
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.
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?
Hoody, I'm here! You are doing sooo great, good job! Adn the point of eating healthily is to make it a life change, so if going to maccas is a part of your life, then you need to figure out a way to healthliy incorporate that into your routine. By getting a med chips and a salad, that's a healthy way to have time out at maccas!
I have had another bad day and am feeling pretty crappy!
I just can't seem to get back on the horse! I did exercise though, a 45min walk to the shops lugging 7.5kg DS in the ergo, then I cleaned our balcony which hasn't been cleaned in about 2yrs! I scrubbed it with the broom and detergent as well as the 2 big double door sliding doors we have going out to the balcony. It was FILTHY! But not anymore That was really good exercise too! But I really need to get back to eating healthily. An not just for me but for DD to, when I eat badly she wants the same foods I eat which is so not good when I'm eating maccas or chocolate. But when I eat healthy foods she wants those, so I have to get back to it! I seem to have replaced healthy eating with exercise and can't seem to coordinate the two!
Lilias- It is SOO hard to find a balance which is why i have had SO many slip ups this week. Maybe if you concentrate on just one time of the day to get right first with regards to eating. Sounds silly but i always aim to start well. Eg a healthy breakfast and fruit for morning tea. I generally have more will power in the mornings, then when i crave the naughty stuff later i think well i've done so well so far resisting the temptations (like my biscuits or cake for Morning tea) i dont want to ruin it now and although some times i do slip i often dont iykwim.

bah just lost my post!
Hoody I'm here too! Been craving chocolate ALL day. Luckily there is none in the house. I'm having withdrawal symptoms and feeling a bit grumpy. Got a bottle of water to sip on and a honey sandwich. Did no exercise today other than housework which consisted of making beds, washing and vacuuming floors and washing the green bins.
