    Ha ha! Nope not working out. Couldnt get onto BB last night so here is yesterdays diary entry...

    Steps: forgot to put my pedometer on. But rode 20mins to work and played two games of soccer last night.
    Bfast: coffee with light soymilk and one sugar (naughty I know but I was late for work)
    Mtea: 2 small anzac bikkies
    Lunch: Salad sandwich which cheese and low fat mayo
    Atea: banana , arrowroot bikkie, coffee with light soymilk and one sugar
    Dinner: Miso soup plus brown rice.
    Other: 1 small square of dark chocolate

    Am happy with how I am going as my skin is looking better and I feel good. Had a nice loss this week of 1.3kg. Only 3cm off in total though but ok with that. If I could just get rid of this tummy I would be ok with the rest. Sounds like everyone else is doing really well!

    Turkish - your cm loss is amazing!

    Am off to pm my measurements. xo

    Krys - know how you feel about tum tums. I have a little apron belly which hangs which i'd love to get rid off. The weight is coming off but my tum tum still hangs. I loathe it. I'm doing 2 ab classes a week to get rid of it.

    My a*se and midriff are looking damn fine tho And when i get my boob job in October, that will finish off a neat little package.

    Watch out world here i come!

    My yay for the week - 1.1kg and 4cm lost YAY! Admittedly I'm post AF and I think it's mostly due to that but hey I'm not complaining! And I HAVE been walking more (mainly due to bub not sleep ).

    and yes it has been quiet... I haven't been MIA due to working out tho lol. Just... um... busy really! I'm very impressed with everyone going to the gym... I haven't made it near my Wii Fit yet, mebbe this week!

    Belfie, that is a FANTASTIC loss

    Walking to lose weight is great, that's how i lost my first 10-12kgs. Then you have start walking at an incline since your bod gets used to it.

    Tonight, i have my 1.5hr workout regime which includes 25-30mins jogging (so NOT looking forward to that) and then 1 hour fat burner class. I like doing aerobics. I am extremely unco at body step though. Just couldn't co-ordinate the arms, legs and the whole step thingy.

    My wiifit tells me im lighter than my scales so might be a bigger loss?

    I had the same problem when weighing between my work scales which are better quality and digital and my home scales that get picked up and thrown about by a 2 year old. lol. Unfortunately for me my work scales weigh me at 3.5kg heavier than my home ones. But I decided to use only those ones this time just because of the accuracy - even though it made me feel a little like I had gone backwards.

    Im too scared to get on the wiifit now in case of difference! I weighed after dinner last night too so I was thiking it would be bad!

    AF has finally finished (2 weeks ****) I think I will be getting implanon out if it is like this next time. I am feeling so low in iron and there is only so much steak a girl can eat

    Sorry for not being around, have been working 45 hours, on my feet constantly for six-eight hours at a time so i am hoping it is helping. I also drink loads and loads of water at work.

    My DF just was dismissed from his job, no reason given but he was a temp so they could fire him whenever, so think he might become SAHD and I might just work... depends how the financial situation works out.

    Anyway, might jump on the wiifit for a more accurate reading later. Congratulations on all the fabbo losses! Belfie, krysalyss, Turkish WOOHOOO!! And Amy small losses are still big steps, hopefully AF stays away for you this month

    Better run it's lunchtime.

    I didn't get to weigh myself this week because of my cold as I didn't get to the gym. I didn't do much exercise either but I am on the mend now so back into the swing of things this week!

    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.....
