hey chicks!!

3LM - Its so hard isn't it. Thinking about all of this makes a difference though, even if you have some chocolate and THEN have some fruit ITMS, so you are still having something healthy?? Then you could cut out the chocolate or cut it down??

Astrid I hear you - so tired and it makes everything, eating healthy, exercising etc. that much more difficult. Im working 3 days a week and struggling big time with it. SO tired but I am also really active on 2 of those days as I am teaching phys ed. Wishing I had a pedometer to track it!

Sopdet - Ouchies on the foot - hope you are feeling better soon xoxox

Kim We can do it and we WILL do it hun. Let's all keep talking it out and working out what our triggers are and sharing ideas. I think being prepared is a big factor. If I have no easy healthy options handy for lunch and snacks I turn to cr@pola so I need to have it ready to go. Also not asking myself if I will walk/run but just going and locking it in mentally works for me, having said that I don't have to worry about dingoes - OMG!!!! Crazy hun!

Belfie - I use MFP and my cals are 1280 for my height and current weight. I went slightly over that today but have been pretty good really and could have been just on or under if I didn't just eat 2 squares of Cadbury - d@mn DH seriously. He has TWO blocks of chocolate sitting in front of me on the table. Normally between us we would eat the lot but I had 2 and that's it which is saying something for me As for the waist to hip ratio - mine is 0.8 and says I am in a healthy range but Im really not. The weight I am carrying is lower down though, under my waist! I have a high waist and it's 86cms and my hips are big at 108. My belly looks like I am pg with number 3 and I have gross rolls. MUST lost this weight and am feeling really determined.

Went for a 3 km run yesterday - SO proud of myself, normally I do my C25K app - I turned it on and because I haven't' run for quite a while though I would start at around week 4 - started running after my warm up and didn't stop until I was nearly home which was 3 mms of jogging non stop! Felt SO awesome, sore today but I have also been teaching PE today and we are doing skipping so I joined in with the kids!! Will be doing the same tomorrow morning then organising our cross country even so will be doing the same again so exercise for tomorrow is sorted = yay!

Am stuffed and ready for bed so will chat to you all soon! Hang in there ladies!!

ETA: DH just opened a pack of chips - Pie and Sauce... Are you freaking kidding me????????
