    thanks MG.
    i have decided that i am going to be extra good for next 6 weeks. i had acupuncture yesterday and she said she think i need to do a detox before we do IVF again.
    so i have to come back in 6 weeks for next acu and start detox. so i want to lose some weight/ size before then.
    had a nice healthy 2 x toast & tomato this morn

    going to be good today.

    good luck to all those trying to lose some of that nasty fat. x

    Cherish - hope you're having a brilliant camping trip!!!!

    Vix - well done on selecting the lite menu! I know how hard that is at Hog's Breath - their menu is so tempting! And remember, it is still ok to have dessert... just try to chose healthier options and you don't have to eat it all. And be kind to yourself, it takes us years to form these bad habits so it is only fair it is going to take time to build new healthy habits.

    JBM - how are you doing hon?

    Me - well, I had another session with my PT last night... am sooooooooooo over it. EVERY time I see him there is a problem. Whether it me freaking out about the gym, or me hurting myself. I think I've only had one injury free session so far. Last night my shoulder was cactus. It is good this morning but my back isn't. I'm sitting here icing it. So not happy. I've done my stretches my Osteo gave me but it is only slightly improved. Not happy at all!!!! But PT and Osteo have talked and have worked out some plans to speed my recovery along for my injuries and get me back up to where I want to be so I cna train hard again... preferabbly without having more injuries. I am so over being injured. I said to PT last night that I am scared of hurting myself more - that I can't afford any more injuries. I can't afford to have another big injury. My body is rooted as it is...

    Sorry - I'm a tad negative this morning - pain will do that to me! But my eating is much better. Not perfect, but better...

    Have a great weekend ladies!

    Oh that ia too bad about your back. I injured my back years and years ago and it took so long for it to heal. I went to the same Chiro for over a decade and then changed Chiros and within a few sessions I was healed! No more headaches or backaches, neck pain......just needed a change in my treatment and babooshka!!!! Hope the new plans work!

    Not much happening today. was going to go for a walk this morning but felt like crap...late night, early morning for DS#1's swimming which was not on due to Anzac Day (DH and I need to read more signs I think!!), blocked nose, headache, ear ache....I think sleep would be a wonderful natural therapy. lol mmmm, excuses again!

    Stay strong everybodeeeeeeee.

    hi guys, welcome vixstar.
    well i lost 700g this week, prob because i was so sick last week with flu and had such a sore throught i ate hardly anything, but hey a loss is a loss.
    i was supposed to have my first pt on thur and when i got there she basically just went thru my scedule and gave me a thing for treadmill work then expected me to pay for that as my pt session. not happy about that, i did not pay for it BTW.
    i think i might go back to my guy trainer , i thought having a woman might be better, but i do not feel good about this girl already.

    so anyway i did 2o mins on treadmill on my own so at least i did something and back into some walking this week also.

    good luck to my eating healthy friends.

    Hi girls

    Great job to both of you! You are doing really well

    OMG Pizzzzza is my absolute fav food along with red wine and curry!!!!

    The Gabriel Method book is great I recommend you both go and get it. It is reminding me of many things I already know and is very inspiring. I am almost there already with the nutrition advice he gives but he has inspired me to go the extra mile that I have been wanting to do but just haven't yet. The book is about switching off your FAT Programs and getting your body to want to loose weight. It's also about not dieting but adding to what you eat to make sure you are getting nutrients you need to then stop feeling hungry. It also talks about causes of being overweight and how to speed up your metabolism etc

    I haven't weighed myself for a while and have decided not to... I figure my clothes will start to be too big and when I get back into my size 12 pants I will get back on the scales.

    Happy easter!!!! GOD this is a hard time of year for us! I was bad (not like you 2 goodies) I ate about 10 little eggs in3 days... Maybe even more!

    Hi girls, just wanted to drop in and wish you all will power and a little encouragment today

    I have to say that I am totally impressed with myself, I got up this morning and made a fresh juice and than had half a hot cross bun. Don't even really feel like chocolate (which is strange)? On a separate note I am hoping we have conceived and I am pg now so choc wont be that great for bubs if there is one (or two) in there

    Anyway I hope you all enjoy the day and aren't struggling too much!

    Ooooh... fingers crossed for you Cherish! You've been so good today! I had two fruitless hot cross buns for b'fast... and a little egg (the hard ones)... and I've had two of the next size up. DD offered me one of her eggs and I said no and (get this!) DH gave me a huge lecture about how rude I am because DD is sharing! so I relented! Now he is down on the treadmill (he ate 2 little eggs, 3 the next size up, three hot cross buns). I'm going for a big walk this afternoon with DD (she needs to burn some energy!) and then on the treadmill later... We were going to have spag bol for dinner... think we might have chicken stir fry instead...

    Easter is wicked!

    Ohhhh Mother Goose you have done SO WELL!!! I'm lucky DH is so supportive (some times TOOOOOO supportive,when I want to slack off a bit!) He is so supportive to the point where if he wants pizza,chocolate, wine etc and I feel like I can't really afford to have it than he wont have it BLESS HIM

    He never buys me easter eggs and I usually buy a few for both of us but because I'd already eaten a few during the week I didn't get any, feeling good about it today.

    Well done again!
