    Hi ladies. Sorry I have been MIA for quite a while. Life has just been really hectic lately and I haven't been on BB much lately. I didn't even measure last week but will try and do it today for this week. I have been a bit slack with my eating over the last week or so and have put on a little but back on track now. I had bootcamp yesterday and I am going to take the kids out for a walk when they get up from their morning sleep later.

    I will try and read through everything to catch up. Hope you are all going well.

    Hi girls. Well I will stop annoying you with my daily diary now that I am using calorie king. It seems pretty good! Ionly lost 300g this week. But thats ok. I am pretty motivated for this week as I am on the verge of being the thinnest since DS was born and am keen to break that record. Ilost 3cm from my boobs, 1 from tummy and 1 from hips. So happy with that.

    Ammaki - If you gained only in the boobs then I definitely think it is due to AF coming.
    TD - thats a nice goal. I wouldn't mind doing that myself. I am meeting with some old colleagues at the end of July and really want to lose 6kg by then - 1kg a week. But I will have to work hard to do it.
    SAS - good result! I am going to Cairns at the start of July. Would love to know what is good to see while we are there. It is our first time there.
    KT - Welcome back!

    What would i do without all you girls You are such great support.

    Sas - have a great holiday. Enjoy every moment of it. But what is a holiday if you can't eat everything you want? That's how i gained 4kg in like 2 weeks on our cruise late last year. Have a ball!
    I don't have a temp as such, just a runny nose and small irritating dry cough. If i feel sick, i'll go home.

    Amy - My DH and DS watch iFish on Foxtel ALL the time. DS is just as bad as his dad. I promised i would take him to meet Paul from iFish when he's next in his store (5 mins drive). Paul is in the store today apparently, so today DS will meet his idol. Fishing is all they talk about. It drives me nuts sometimes, but i feel relieved when they both go fishing as DD and i have time together. Your weight gain is probably all fluid from pre AF. I bloat too. You'll be fine next week, just keep at it, hun.

    Krys - i need to get back on CK too. It's been awhile.

    I just hope i can keep at my mini goal...

    See ya all tomorrow...

    Another of the MIA here...

    Very busy with very active DS and many hours at work. Yesterday was my first day off in about three weeks. Am exhausted!! My laptop is also broken and I dont get on the desktop much, DF is a hog!

    We are still eating healthy here, the exercise has lessened with me being at work and the weather being terrible but still doing well. Haven't weighed or measured today, will do later, I know I have lost again will be interesting to see how much. Am so thrilled of my progress so far. Oh and my AF never really went away. I have been spotting/bleeding/spotting/bloated for the last four weeks and I am going insane. Some days nothing, next light spotting, nothing, then bleeding. Will have to get my implant out juist don't have any time. Am so disappointed it was otherwise fantastic! Really helped with appetite and sex drive LOL!

    Everyone sounds like they are staying really positive and doing really well. Sorry I can't catch up with personals just want to congratulate you all for sticking it out.

    Good luck, back when i can!

    Hi girls, well I had a loss of 1.1kgs but first week fro me, so to be expected and cms off wasit and hips so very happy who knows what I would have been without Hungry Jacks and last nights pizza.

    Ammaki, I alsways seem to weigh lightest before AF??? Which is really weird, I bet that is what your gain is about...

    krysalyss oh ...i like reading what you have been eating gives me good ideas sometimes.

    Turkish delight, you have good motivation with a wedding and being MOH, it will be great to see what you can acheive? before the kids i used to go to gym everyday when DF was away on business trips, something to do and a good goal to look hot when he got home. Nice work with your negotiatiion...sounds like a win, win, win for you and a win for them.

    cookie I hear you on weird AF but not for the same reasons, I think I am still getting back to normal after DD or early menopause!!! Great about the weight loss.

    Sas enjoy your holiday, I'm jealous but would struggle with weight gain, so probablly better I'm not going on one.

    Sorry if I missed you hope you had a good week...It's freezing here today and I have the need to comfort eat, I am fighting it but it's so hard. I really need to go for awalk but it's pouring as well, so a bit hard to take the kidlets out. When DH gets home I think I'II rug up and get out there though.

    Couldn't wait til tomorrow to see what had been going on in here!

    I went to the gym this evening. Just came back actually. I did walking at 12.5% incline at 5.4kph for 32 mins and then walked for 5 mins at 0% incline at 6.3kph. I burned 405 calories in 42 mins (inc. warm up walk). I then did a 1 hour fat burner class. I almost died. Literally, died. I was drinking some water and it went down the wrong way and i couldn't breathe, i started to panic and hyperventilate which made it worse. I had go to the instructor to get her to pat my back and i was breathing slowly and deeply. There was a moment when i was considering asking her to call the ambulance, i could not breathe. I thought i was going to die.

    I have this fear about not being able to breathe. I quickly panic and hyperventilate. It all began when i had my DS via c/s and i got referred shoulder pain from the procedure. It is when air gets trapped in your body from the c/s cut and it has nowhere to escape and accumulates in the shoulder. It causes such pain it is unbelievable. I panicked and began hyperventilating and they had to give me oxygen etc.. through the whole ordeal i was asking the nurses if i was going to die. I could not breathe. It was a nightmare.

    Before i went into c/s with DD, i told the nurses about my referred shoulder pain from DS and they said that they could not tell if it would or would not happen this time round. Of course it happened again. I hyperventilated so many times following DD's birth too.

    Amy - Paul from iFish is so nice IRL. He gave my son a signed iFish cap, which he has had on since getting it. He is very cute too

    Pam - good loss Pam. Congrats. Pizza mmmmmmmmmmm. Keep it up..
