weighed in this morning (before breakfast, after going to the loo, so I knew there was nothing inside me..lol). Apparently I've lost 1.4kg..which could be true, but I was feeling like an elephant after christmas!
Bought some new shorts from Target the other day and they are already starting to feel a bit loose..which is good, but I don't think I'd fit into a size down. shame they don't make in between sizes. haven't been doing many exercise vids lately, but mowed the back lawn last week and will do the front this week sometime. Have been going for a walk every morning and DF hasn't been coming so I can go for longer. Been quite warm too so I've really been able to sweat it up. Think I have just eaten the last of the naughty foods leftover from xmas so back on the healthy eating bandwagon
Ergh weighed myself and i put on 5kg over x-mas.. BUT i am not phased by the end of summer i will be closer to my goal weight than ever before.
I can and will work it all off again.. i mean i have still lost 6.6kg so i am happy and i'm still fitting all those new clothes.
No walk today going out on a boat, so hopefully back into it wednesday and laying off the crap food FROM NOW.
Oh phew!! I only gained 700g! Made sure i fed after a huge feed from DS and a pee Seems to make a good difference!
SS_Storm that is amazing! Well done on losing that much weight over Christmas!! You are a star I think the way you are going, next time you buy something it will definitely be in the smaller size anyway so no need for half sizes!
ZF- a boat sounds awesome! Enjoy your day, i am very jealous! That sucks about the 5kgs, but you will have it off in no time at all, your weight seems to just fall off of you!
I am joining this thread as a bit of a New Year motivation to be healthier, more toned and less wobbly!!!
I got a wii fit for xmas which i have been using everyday for a week- but i think it must be broken coz it said i lost some weight then i did heaps of stuff for two days and it said i put some on lol Not to worry- it was all a matter of 1kg so hopefully it was just time of day and different clothes- i am still doing about 30-45 minutes on there a day when i get a chance- i have been right into the yoga and stuff every morning, and then some toning work and some aerobic stuff, and i am loving the boxing!!! I also have an excercise bike and i started doing about 30-40 situps a day, but i wasnt very good at sticking to that, i need to start that again!! Finding time for all the excercising is a challange in itself... DS and DD (2 1/2 and 6 months old) take up alot of time and while DS likes to watch and tries to join in with the wii fit- he also hinders me abit and tried to jump on me while i am doing things lol
I also want to start going on more walks and a personal challange is to not drive to the local shops, but walk there and also walk DS to day care on mondays!!
I am also trying to watch what i eat- when i was in my ealry 20's i could literally eat anything and not gain weight- but i think i have to realise that as i am getting older (i will be 30 in two weeks!!) that my body is changing and i need to start watching what i put in my gob!! So i am switching to low fat milk and cutting down on the maccas and dominoes, upping the fresh fruit and vege and excersise!!!!
I have had a browse through the thread, but i will have a better read through later and try to get to know everyone and where everyone is at!! I am getting a weight loss ticker going too!!!
Nice to meet everyone and i am looking forward to slimming down with you all!!!!
I'm new to this thread too, have read all the posts (last night actually, when I couldn't sleep...)
Okay so DH and I have agreed to lose 10 kg's this year, I could probably do with 20+ kg's but hey, I have to start somewhere...
So I have already tried a new 'thing'... Had my first one-on-one Pilates session last thursday, and another one today, and booked in for one next week too.. Plus DH and I went for a nice walk saturday.. I do cleaning for work, so I do get 'some' exercise there... I am down 700g from last week, but last week I went up about the same soo... Stupid AF...
Me in a nutshell: 27 y/o, living in Sydney with my gorgeous hubby. Had a beautiful son born (full term) i Feb-10, but he passed away 6 days old. If you're interested, you could find out what happened in 'Haakon's story' - not sure if it's possible to search for the post or not. Anyway I have sort of come to terms with losing my little boy, and I want to improve my lifestyle and shred some kg's before we get preggers again.... :-)
Hi Starbright and TJ! There's heaps of support here. Good luck with your weight loss targets
Quick question from me - DH is/has been trying to lose weight for a long time. I've entered his details into my fitness pal and the calories it's asking him to consume are huge. Today he had a crossant for breakfast, has some salada biscuits for lunch with philly cheese, tomato and cucumber, has had a nectarine and 1/4 cantelope and had some Christmas ham. I've put in what we're having for dinne (stir fried sweet and sour pork with hokkien noodles) and it's still telling him he needs to eat another 1700 cals. He's looking at me like I'm nuts! We went for a walk this morning too. How few calories can he get away with without entering starvation mode?
