Mildez - Yup, all you need to do is 'like' the page hun. As for your DH I'd not be impressed at him sabotaging your effort to eat healthy. My DH has a sweet tooth and he used to offer me ice cream, chocolate - you name it. And the more he offered it (knowing that I was in the process of losing weight) the more is pi$$ed me off; which caused me to dig my heels in and become stubborn on it. In fact, then, the more he pushed me to try and eat badly ('oh, come on - what is 1 little chocolate going to do' he'd say) the more I found it easier to reject the bad food. And that carried over into social functions where there would be the option for cake or fruit salad for dessert - I'd feel his eyes on me and just to tick him off I'd go for the fruit salad no matter how much I salivated over the cake lol! Hang in there, I know there is an even sexier Mumma in you dying to come out - it's only a matter of time!

SJ - Yup, I'm reading an excuse there hun - and yep I've heard it before from others too. Lol, 8.30pm is generally when I start my exercise too - and being so so cold at night (and when DH is on afternoon shift) I have no option to exercise BUT to do it inside. So I have exercise DVD's which I manage to get a big sweat up in a space of 1.5 mtrs x 3 mtrs. I have to change direction a bit more than they do in the DVD lol, but I still sweat and that's all that counts. This week though DH is on arvo shift so I'll exercise, um, when he wakes up, so soon I'm hoping(before breakfast). This way I'll be burning more fat cells. If DD2 is in an ok mood this evening I'll also do some more exercise then too (maybe just a quick 30 min session).

TT - Lol, you're not stalker-ish at all. But you have reminded me to add a new entry to my blog - thank you . I think kinda similar things during my workouts too (not about myself though - that'd be weird lol). During an RPM session I'd think 'hang on, I'm not working as hard as I could - what kind of results do I want? Spectacular or just ok'? Then I'd turn up the resistance dial and work that little bit harder. In that case there are a few things you should know about me 1) While trying to lose weight, I very, very, VERY rarely give in to eat a 'treat' no matter how badly I might feel like it; 2) If there is an option to do incidental exercise (like walk to the shops instead of drive or take stairs over the lift) I'll do it - lol I even play chasy in the house with the kids lol!

Belfie - Hun, being short is the reason why it takes us longer to lose that off the waist area. Just accept that - try not to get too hung up on it? You have gone so far and so friggin brilliantly with your weight loss thus far, the last place fat will come off of is the waist / belly area (generally). And yep, I think you're ready to go scientific on the fitness now - by far! In fact I think you jinxed my HR monitor - that battery indicator came up last night - first time ever lol. I hope it gets me thru this mornings workout.

Tinsel - great hun, I'm glad you're with me on FCS too.
