It's a deal hun, we can do it!!!!

Way to go making the decision to do something- shame it takes those horrid picture realisation moments to kick us into gear hey? I had one about 21/2 months ago that got my butt into gear. I've lost nearly 6.5 kg to date since then, so that's in about 10 weeks - not as much as many say - the one kg per week.
So I would encourage you not to set too high a goal to start in too short a time. Half a kg a week is fairly realistic.
Check out calorie king too - it's got some good stuff to offer.

All the best on your journey!!

Hey Kel (and Danielle)! I have a fair bit more than both of you to lose but I'm after a buddy. Wanna exchange email / mobile numbers and text / harrass each other ? I think I might be a bit overzealous going for 89.9 before NYD, so I'll go with 93.9! We can hold each other accountable?

1% of your body weight per week is reasonable so keep that in mind. And wiifit says no more than 1.4kg per fortnight or it will cause weight rebound.

I have a weightloss blog too, but i just deleted most of the posts because it was for me and i felt like i was filtering it LOL. Time to be honest!!

Woohoo, I have buddies I didn't expect that, I was just writing to try to help with some motivation, but I am more than happy to have people to keep me going!! Yay!

Ausgirl, congrats on your weight loss! You are going great guns!! Maybe 8kgs in 10wks is too much....we'll see. I will keep it there, but be happy with any loss!

Danielle, yay, someone to motivate me!! And I will nag you too Have you got my number? I will pm you now anyway.

Ash, welcome on board! I will be more than happy to exchange numbers and be your motivation I know how hard it can be, working, babies, house, hubby.....so eay to get a tub of icecream for dinner for yourself! Well, that's what I do on my worst days. And DH is my enabler. I will pm you now too.

Woohoo! I'm excited, lol! Though, ask me again in a week and I might not be so cheery! I am going to try to do the couch to 5km run. I am so not a runner and never have been, but have always wanted to be, lol. So I am going to try it. Ok going to go and make a healthy breaky!

Hey breeze, can't pm you...I might have your mobile number anyway, I will have to check. If I do I will just msg you.

I am sneaking in too.... I have 10kgs to loose. I am 73kgs and would be delighted if I could loose 5 kgs by xmas time. I can do it. I got dh to fix up my push bike. I am starting water aerobics once a week. I wanted to buy a bike trailer so I could take the kids on a ride with me...otherwise I would have to get up at the crack of dawn...unlikely! I have decided to have 1 naughty day a week with chocolate. Drink loads of water and eat more raw food.

I also decided that once I get to 70kgs I will treat myself with an hoour massage.
If I hit 67kg around xmas...shopping spree and another massage!

The only thing that might hold me back is if I fall pg.....will be trying after Novemeber though so gives me a month to get on the way to beingfit and into a routine....

OMG...I wrote that out in public!
