    Welcome Rhi!

    Sounds very doable to me

    Well, I have done 47 mins on Wii fit today. Will also try for 30 mins on exercise bike.

    My goal is to do it every day this week. And, of course, watch what I eat!

    Thanks n2l. I nearly bawled my eyes out at the Personal Trainer tonight b/c I feel so much pressure to get this weight off - it's like the FS is hanging this over my head. I know weight loss will definately help ttc but it seems like yet another thing to do.... Anyway woe is me & am back to meal planning too now - that seemed to keep me on track.

    Sounds like you have a good, acheiveable plan Rhi. I am lucky, I've never had the FS say anything about my weight - obviously I have told him I've been working on losing weight, and I did tell him I'd lost 8 kg this year - but he never asks, and he never says anything - as I am 109kg atm, I definitely fall into the category of 'losing weight is essential'. I guess I'm lucky (or maybe he's just ignoring it.... and it's more of a factor than I am owning up to myself).

    I also do PT twice a week, but do need to get back into doing other classes - at the moment I'm doing a half hour 'blitz' class on the same night as I go to PT - so I too need to get back into more exercise.

    I have started back on monday morning exercise bike - and feel good that it is the first thing I think of in the morning - but not in a negative way - even if i don't feel like it, I am managing to tell myself that it is now a routine, and I just have to get up and do it - 5 minutes only - and if it;'s more then.. great ;-) It seems to be working well.

    DH got back from overseas on the weekend, so I am hoping he will get back on the bandwagon (we were doing so well before we got married - but have been a bit slack since then )

    Good job N2L - I'm impressed with your enthusiasim for the home exercise - I just can't be bothered when I'm at home!

    How's everyone else going???

    maybe we could share some quick/easy/tasty recipies while we are here???
