Oh Raupe, what asses! I can't believe they would be so rude!! 17kgs is an absolutely HUGE weightloss and i think you are amazing! I have no idea what you looked like before, or even now, but i am sure there is a big difference. We are incredibly proud of you, don't worry about them, they don't even matter in the grand scheme of things! I do remember reading a blog a while back about someone else's weight loss and one of the entries was about when people start to notice (or are willing to say something!) and i remember thinking "whoah, thats a really long time!", so rest assured that its not just you!

I almost caved today and got Macca's on the way home! But i thought of my 'peeps' again and our weigh in tomorrow morning and decided to pull out one of DD's snacks instead Hooray! I have also managed not to eat like DF this weekend (though did have a meat pie yesterday which i am sure was at least 600 calories...) and i did an extra day at the gym so that is 6 days this week.

Any new challenges for the coming week? I think i am going to ban chocolate as i have been making christmas chocolates and eating far too many of them! Also, i want to make sure i hit a min of 500 calories of cardio workout each day at the gym. I have a later creche session booked this week so there is no excuse for not getting through the whole workout because i was running late. I am also going to be running on the treadmill this week, going back to week 1 of the couch to 5k running program, even though i was up to week 5, as i am really struggling switching from running outside to running on the treadmill for some reason.
