Hey all!! Sorry I have been MIA!!!

Belfie!!! WOW!!!! YOU go girl!!! I am so proud of you and so in awe!!! Well done!!! I would love to see some before and after pics!!!! :-)

Livvy.... *slap* ther you go- you have been punished!!! Hop back on the wagon!!! It must have felt great to be told you look good and skinny!!!!! I have vauge hazy memories of a time i was told i was TOO SKINNY!!!! LoL!!! I will be there again!! (well maybe not TOO SKINNY, but not large would be great!!!) I think its ok to re-adjust your final goal.. If you feel good and look good and are healthy, then there is no reason to be super skinny!! See how you feel and what works for you- maybe now you can concentrate on toning your body or something!! :-)

MIldez .. WOW 1000cals in on day!!! Even 500 sounds like a lot to ask everyday!! I am happy if I do 200-300 on the bike (thats between half an hour and a hour) and then my extra of the dance workout (around 200cal)- but usually i dont have the time to do both.... so if i manage the excercise vid- i only get the 200 cal on the bike. For me its not to so much the fitness, physically I can do it, its time management and child entertaining!!!! They love to climb on the bike with me and climb on the wii fit board(or me) in the middle of an excercise!! Good luck with it, and dont wear yourself out too much!!!! :-)

Leesa.. I reckon the "eating" back thing was a bit my problem.. i was hungry and I wasnt eating back!!! I wasnt snacking alot, just trying to stick to my meals. Which were healthy enough (for me!!) but over the last two weeks I have been having a museli bar in the morning between breakfast and lunch and another one in the afternoon. I am feeling less hungry and feeling better. I havent been doing the CK - this is the second week they recomnend not counting... but I would say I am having a slightly higher calorie intake than i was.

And this week I have been a bit slack on the excercise!! DH has been home- he has taken some time off work to look for another job closer to home, so I have been busy doing stuff for him like resume's etc and actaully getting out of the house daily :0!!!!!! A new thing for me!!! (one of the reasons he is looking for work thats not one and half hours drive away!! I can take him to work and have the car occassionally and maybe some kind of a life!!!!) I have managed half an hour here and there on the bike- but not my triple whammie of toning, cardio and bike!! DH has chopped down another tree that needs carrying so I wil get in and do some of that today!! I want to get myself a HRM and a steppycounter thingy.. where would I get one from???? A sports store maybe??

I have done a few litte weighs.. i got as low as 80.8... then yesterday i was back up to 81.4. Not weighing today coz I am in heavy pj pants etc and its a bit too chilly to strip down lol!!! Also I want to put in a big effort today and tomorrow- and i will do my next weigh in on Monday!!

Anyway- eating has been good- i made another trip into canberra AND I DIDNT GO TO MACCAS!!!!! I am sooo proud!!!! I did eat cake though, but another BB member who is trying to maintain weight made it- so i am sure she made it with lite milk at least!! Well DD is grumbly so I best be off!!

Hi to everyone!! Happy excercising!!!!! Healthy eating!!!
