I have 4kg left to lose to get to my original goal weight, but another 10kg (with or without the 4kg just mentioned) would be awesome! I've been told we'll be invited to a wedding in WA in August, so 10kg by then would be fantastic !!
Least then too, I'll be a tad bit closer to my sisters size/weight and I'll no longer be the "fatter" sister. We'll be a similar size.
Count me in to help keep you accountable, coz I'll need some to keep me accountable!
Bust - take it from your nipple line and around (don't squish )
Chest - under boobs but as high up as you can go
Waist - feel for the very tip of your hip and just above that
Hips - measure the largest part even if it's quite low
Thighs - measure half way point between your hip bone at the front and the top of the knee
Upper arm - half way between the dent in the outside of your shoulder and your elbow
I know I am only new to Belly Belly but I thought that I would pop in and say that I am also trying to lose weight - although Ihave a LOT to lose. I did have 43 kg to lose but now I have lost 13kg and have only 30 to go. The first 10kg I dropped really easily but then I hit a brickwall. The last 3kg have been coming off at a rate of 200-400gm per week. Not heaps but it is still a loss! I have probably about 12 months at least to go before I will come close to goal.
I am still breastfeeding so this makes me very hungry and until I drop my intake of food further I think the weightloss will be really slow.
I don't get to exercise much although I do use my Wii Fit every day for at least 1/2 hour. The first 10kg I didnt do any exercise for....
I just wanted to say that it is weird but I can see a bigger difference when I am losing slowly as to when I lose quickly. I use my scales and I weigh myself on a daily basis. To be honest this is one of the best motvators for me. To realise that I no longer weigh 3 digits and I really am dropping kilos is an amazing feeling. I use weight watchers online but only because I love the fact that I can track what I am eating and Idont have to actually calculate anything myself.
Well, I have already started, but I am definitely making my weightloss and fitness a priority for 2010. I am aiming to loose between 0.5 - 1kg each week (which I know is completely acheivable for myself). I go back to work from maternity leave in May, and want to be as close to goal as possible (being within My BMI is a requirement of the job). When I reach my 'offical' goal of 71kg (top of my BMI range), I will then look at loosing a little more - hopefully down to between 60-65kg (size 10ish), will see how Igo and how feel when I get there.
This is great girls, lets do this. Tomorrow morning DF is coming with me for my first morning workout Just a bit of a powerwalking and some stairs, but I'm going to keep it up every morning. Wish me luck!
Best of luck gorgeous. I would love to loose 10 kgs and am already looking into small changes in our diet but I have no idea how to fit exercise into an already jammed mummy schedule? Suggestions ladies? I'm going to jump onto the diet/exercise threads for some help. I always seem to do this every so often and never get anywhere.
L - it is hard but if you want to make time you simply have to change your priorities...thats why I love the gym, it's way easier to make time to go to the gym as I know the kids love it (so thats their fun/play time) or we go to the pool there either side of the work out.
When I get the new Combat release and I have 2 weeks to learn it I procrastinate so much because i'm learning it at home...I have to book time in the group fitness room at the gym to learn it there because otherwise i'd never do it!
It is easier for me because I don't have to worry about a man at home but I get to the gym every day (cheating though I guess cause I work there ) but it is possible, you just have to juggle a bit!
