    I'm hearing you Feeb. My downfall is chocolate and I hate salad and eat very few fruit and veg too. I wish I loved salad because then I could just eat lots to fill up on.
    We'll get there matie. I've lost 30 kilo's before without having to live on salad - I can do it again

    Hoody - with the Wii Fit, I tend to get on and do some of the yoga stretches and then I love the boxing and the skiing ones. I haven't been on it in ages though

    One of my goals is to do 10,000 steps per day and I can achieve this through incidental exercise plus going for daily walks of a minimum of 45 minutes. I go to a Pilates class every Tuesday night. I'll have to work out a weights plan. I've got some hand weights at home so might dust those off.

    I will drink 2.5 litres of water a day.
    I will allow myself a food free day once a week, so I can enjoy some chocolate or some soft drink or a dinner party etc. I'm going to be flexible with the day and not lock myself into one particular day to have free stuff. I want it to be flexible so I can work it around family gatherings, summer bbqs with friends, etc if that makes sense.

    At the moment I have tonsillitis feel crap but have lost my appetite for all the bad stuff but don't really feel like exercising at all so hopefully when it cools down this evening I might get out for a gentle walk, get some fresh air.

    Hi everyone,

    I've just come across this thread and so think it would be fantastic if its not too late? Taking a few months off ttc so thats perfect timing. I've found my measuring tape and off to buy scales. We got a Wii for xmas so will be doing alot of that and have already been eating healthy eating salad and veges at least once a day so will send my huge-mongous measurements and weight soon as i get back.

    tk1999- My stats are
    weight- 74kg
    bust- 92cm
    waist- 84cm
    hips- 108cm
    history- non really pre pg weight was 58kg
    To be at my optimal weight i need to get to 66kg but i was 58kg (and a healthy size 10) b4 been pg and would like to get down to 64kg now. I am aiming to lose 3kg by 24th of Jan as my DH is going away and this is his return date. Then by march 4th (my 26th b'day) and week 9 of the challenge i would like to be down to at least 68kg making the weight loss of 6kg since starting which i think is realistic and very achievable in 9 wks iykwim. I have had the money in my purse for the last 3 wks to join the gym so will do that this week then aim to go to 3 classes a week. For me finding the time to exercise is the hurdle as with a 1 and 2 yo i have very little time to myself. I have a massive sweet tooth and think i will really struggle with the healthy eating.

    I see that your 1st mini goal is to lose 3kg by mid Jan? Mine is to lose at least that by Jan 24. Maybe this could be our 1st lil competition etc where we can support each other. if you like we could PM-email each other daily with a run down of our day such as exercise and eating habits etc so if we fall off the band wagon we can give each other kicks up the bum etc. Let me know what you think.

    K well we arent doing much for NYE so we are having a wii night lol i figure its better than sitting around eating and drinking. I am going to do a fridge and cupboard clean out this arvo and then a healthy food shop with no soft drink- my biggest downfall. How will i cope lol

    Hoody, with the soft drink, try replacing it with soda/sparkling water (ie fizzy water). I've done this before and it worked really well. I was used to having a fizzy drink with dinner, so I switched to soda/sparkling water and then eventually just regular water.
