Vixstar thank hon I also counted calories in teh past and have lot weight that way several times. I got addicted to it! and i found it LIBERATING! No more guilt! If I wanted something and I had the calories for it than I could eat it, simple as that!! And you soon learn what the better choices are. I've also done JC. I found it great too as I didn't have to think about anything at all, just eat the food (which I liked) that is how I lost 8kg's after DS was born... still have a ways to go though after I couldnt' afford to stay on JC.
Leesa & Vixstar that would have been 5000KJ not cal I agree about he counting calories, people pretty much eat the same stuff day in and day out for example you know how much a slice of bread it, a tsp of butter a cup of tea with a tsp of honey and milk etc how much your yoghurt is... It's pretty easy when you are in the swing of it. Wish I had the motivation to do it again! I got the food diary otu but didn't fill it in properly How great are you doing your workouts are home too ahhh such an inspiration! I have a gym here at home which I think I'm going to add an excercise bike too. AND YAY for the 65's
Belfie you go girl!!
Mildez I'm so sorry about your little one Hang in there and I think you're allowed to come in here and whinge, that's what we are here for, support
lilias no pressure is the way to go hon, if you're not in the right head space you'll only feel bad if you dont' stick to all the things you say you want to. Besides you might surprise yourself and loose weight when you're not even trying!
Danielle how about a home pamper day for those emotional times? I love those when I'm feeling a bit off rather than reaching for the food... paint my nails, do a facial, hair treatment etc.
AFM A good day again but not so sure about dinner tonight Dare I say it.... We might have pizza We are celebrating! Today I told my boss I am not coming back from maternity and I officially get to stay at home with DS full time woohoo!
aaaaah HAHAHAHAHA SNAP!!! So did I! so happy healthy BMI to both of us! It's just the BEST feeling! I'm hoping it'll still be there on Sat which is my official weigh-in day! So saying, I was half a kilogram UNDER my healthy BMI point, so it's looking good!
Re Les Mills, I think I'd love it, that's true. And even though I'm not as fit as I'd like to be, there's only one way to get fitter! But I don't want to have to join a gym at this stage. I have a good exercise bike, I'm getting back into running, I have some weights & I do a lot of walking with the kids. I just don't have the time (or the cashola) to put on a gym at present. I thought (could be wrong) that I couldn't really do it unless it was in a gym setting?
Mildez & Lilias - I was popping in & out of here for quite some months before the time was right for me to get started. I WANTED to start, but it was just not the right time for ne. So keep reading & join us when you're ready. Plus it is so hard with little bubbas & interrupted sleep. I think waiting till things have settled is a very good idea. When it is the right time, you will do it and you feel great.
