    LOL, Mel. Thread killer.

    Astrid, good luck with the bread. I love fresh bakery bread *drool* Lucky for me our one and only bakery here sucks and the bread isn't that nice!

    Purple pixie, I just did a few weeks sugar free. Whilst the first week was pretty difficult and a struggle, it got easier every day. After that I didn't really crave the sugar at all. Once you're over the hump of the physical craving, it isn't so hard not to eat it!

    OOh I'd love to go on a spin bike. Well, correction, I'd love to own a spin bike, we have an exercise bike, but I never go on it.... dunno really what the difference is.....

    Kel - I think its about 3 weeks and then thats it. Then it just gets easier. I think I crave strawberries more than chocolate now LOL

    hi girls
    can i join in here?
    after being in denial for over a year about my increasing weight, i actually joined weight watchers this morning. the program seems really good and achievable, but just thought i should jump in here to get some extra support

    Ginger, weight watchers is really good (I think so anyway!). It is about healthy eating, but also teaches you lifestyle and emotional strategies to cope with eating and weight gain/loss. If I could afford it, I would do it again!

    Hi everyone! Feels like ages since I've posted in this thread! As it says in my sig, I have now lost 32kg since January this year. Another 5-10kg left to go. I have been running, walking and going on my exercise bike for exercise, and just plodding along with eating. I haven't touched Maccas, HJs or KFC since January! I barely eat chocolate anymore either. So, while I don't count calories, everything I eat is basically healthy, good food. There's another 10km road race coming up in October, so I'm planning on entering that and hopefully beating my time!

    It's amazing to look back at old photos and then photos now - I'm a totally different person .
