Krys - WTG! You are doing so well. I did quite well yesterday and even had a treat from KFC....a BIG treat! One of those cheesecake desserts.....mmmmmmm...*smacks lips together*.....no dessert now till next Sunday night!
I have read also about the vinegar...BLERK! though. Pity Salt n Vinegar chips don't count...or hot chips with vinegar! *drools everywhere*. Bad thoughts...BAD BAD!
I have started having a big glass of water with lemon in it...I should really start the day with it though as a cleanser.
Making fresh pineapple juice today for morning tea with my juicer. Yummo!
Well, I have been flat out doing housework this week. It has been raining so much and I have not been able to go out walking.Anyways, I figured doing my housework such as mopping and vacuuming at a faster pace instead of the lalalala pace I normally do it at! Have also been hangiung out the washing in the gazebo which is up and down stairs so I have been running up and down the stairs...with a washing basket! lol Lucky I have not slipped over.
Will get the Wii out today and play tennis with DS#1....I give him a remote and let him think he is playing too.
One more day till weigh in! My belt I have on atm can now be done up on the 3rd hole...wonder if I will see that tomorrow when I measure????
Keep going girls! YOU CAN DO IT - said with an Arnie impersonation!
Cherished - congrats hun, that is FAB news. Goodluck with bubbsy.
I swear, i was home Fri-Sat-Sun and didn't have time to get on the computer. I was sooo busy. I must admit though, every chance i got, i slept. Every time DD went down so did i. It was great. Caught up on some much missed sleep.
Didn't get to hit the gym on the 3 days though. DH was working during the day, so i couldn't go. I was also very good at not eating crap throughout the day, but must confess that i had 1 row of choc on each of the days, but it was so yummy.
Last Thursday night, i did my 1.5hr workout and then a 1hr body step class. I was sooo tired at the end of it all. DH is getting a bit peeved that i spend so many hours at the gym each night - but i tell him that its ME time. He spends his ME time on the net and i spend ME time tiring myself out.
This morning i hopped on the scales and the scales were flickering between 64.5kg and 65kg. I was wrapped. I'm hoping with tonight's work out, the scales will read 64.5kg for tomorrow's weigh in.
Krys - your exercise and food diary on here is great. It gives me ideas on things to eat. You are doing really well.
Vixstar - the occassional treat isn't bad. I was told that you need to have 1 bad day per week where you can eat the things that you crave (in moderation) so you don't binge.
I read a fantastic quote in the current slimming and health magazine, i'll type it when i get home as i don't have the mag here with me. I love all the inspirational stories. I don't know how some people can lose 40-50kgs. It is truly amazing.
I am really struggling with this weight loss challenge. Just don't have my heart in it...I want to shed the weight but something isn't working for me. Have some emotional issues atm which are weighing rather heavily on my mind so I think until I get through them nothing elese is going to shift. Bit depressing. I have also been very very stressed of late too.....think it is related to my 'issues'.
Yesterday I went for a 40 minute walk in the rain with DS#2. I hate rain with a passion so to do that is a massive plus for me.
Food side is okay. Have redued the size of a lot of meals although some nights I find myself serving up a big meal for myself coz I am so blumin hungry by then.
My measurements went up this week....I have either expanded or I am not measureing properly each week which is very annoying. However, I have gone down a notch in my one and only belt...go figure!?!
Water consumption - always good!
Had a look on the WW site the other night and was very impressed with their firness info. Will go back and check it out again today.
Two questions....
WW girls - how does this join for $1 thing work.....
Jenny Craig girls - does it really only cost $7 per week.......how does JC work? Is it the same as WW.
Well doen to everyone with a loss this week and to those who stayed the same. For those of us not happy with the results (when they get posted!)....good luck for this week. I almost pulled the pin but did not want to label myself as a quitter so am sticking with it.....
Sorry youre having a hard time Vix, i feel similar in that im disapointed when i only have small losses even tho i feel im working out a whole lot more than i used to!
Glad to hear youre feeling better Nai!! Good job getting back into the swing of things right away!!
AFM; Netball last night, we lost, i played a SHOCKING game but you win some you lose some!! Lol. Gym tonight, cant wait. Its good im excited to go to the gym!! Just wish i was getting better results!! Have a great day ladies!
Hi Aamy - I got this one at Big W but you can also get them from Amart Allsports etcs. Get a small one with a good clip as the last one I had kept coming off. Grrr. Also if you can get one with a sensitivity adjuster as the readings change depending on your pants and the position.

Will have to do some kind of exercise tonight to make up for it. Am feeling a bit crappy though as DS has just been in the worst mood. Last night he woke up at middnight and screamed for an hour, this morning the same, and again this afternoon. Don't know what is going wrong but it is really hard. Feel like comfort food but trying to resist more damage than I have already done today!
One good thing is that I went to a physiotherapist yesterday for shin splints and sore feet/knee and she said everything was to do with my flat feet (which I didnt know I had) and she gave me stretches and I have to get orthopaedic insoles which should sort it out. Yay! nothing too bad.
I have been MIA - didn't even measure myself this week . . sorry, was becoming addicted to BB and told myself not to look at anything for a week, serves ,me right, now I have all this catch up reading to do and can't remember everything.
Cherished - Congrats!!!!
Everyone who lost weight - even 100g, YAY, YAY, YAY.
Everyone who didn't, well, we will have good weeks and bad weeks, this challenge is good because it keeps us accountable and means we can remotivate. I feel like I am doing well this week, so hopefully will have 2 weeks worth of measurements to report on Tuesday.
Krysalus - Wow, good work on recording your intake and output, it really makes you think before you eat something if you know you'll have to write it down hey.
Bub is teething (so my mother tells me, I see no teeth) but nappy rash for the first time EVER a few times and sudden outbursts for not reason, and barely eating or drinking much when she's usually such a guts and needs to be cuz she's only wittle and not a chubba, but she's not sick at all and is still giggly and happy most of the time so who knows. I am hating this rain, I am hating indoor excercise at the moment even though I have the means to do it. Rain, Rain go Away.
Anyways, I figured doing my housework such as mopping and vacuuming at a faster pace instead of the lalalala pace I normally do it at! Have also been hangiung out the washing in the gazebo which is up and down stairs so I have been running up and down the stairs...with a washing basket! lol Lucky I have not slipped over.
I lost a whopping 6cm off my bum
