    Hey guys!
    I bought a set of scales today I was ashamed to say the least :( I have 70lbs to lose!! I just hope this can be achieveable I mean, if I aim for december it can't be that hard can it?! Not with the support of everyone here :D. I bought a WW magazine today and i'm going to plan my meals for when i'm back at uni.

    Woohoo, together we can do it!! There's a massive park outside my uni and I plan to start with powerwalking-jogging-running in the end :D
  • Hi all

    this sounds like a good one for me and will help keep me motivated. I have 42lb to lose so can you add me to the challenge please. I go on holiday for a week on 1st March and I would love to lose a stone by then.

    Thanks

    My food diary for the day:

    No brekkie
    Lunch: Cream cheese and green pepper sandwich, 4 cherry tomatoes and a clementine. OK I know cream cheese isn't healthy, but it was good :D
    Tea: Tagliatelle with tuna
    I also own up to a chocolate orange biscuit just before lunch, but I maintain that it was forced on me.

    Walked in and out of work. Will hopefully get around to doing some Wii Fit later this evening.

    Hello,

    Big chocolate and biscuit munchies here :o. At least managed to do little bit yoga in the morning and some dog walking up steep hills in the afternoon. Snow on its way here I have heard so we might get snowed in during the night :eek: so perhaps only exercise tomorrow will be yoga and Irish Dancing DVD (no - never done it before in my life :rolleyes:)

    I've been much hungrier today. Not sure if it's boredom of being off school. Been a bit ratty and headachy too. Anyway, we have another snow day tomorrow, so I'll see how that goes :o

    Breakie - Readybrek (HE B )made with water

    Lunch - 3 rashers turkey bacon with a tin of spaghetti (3 syns) Bag of Special K mini Bites (not a clue how many syns :o)

    Dinner - grilled HM pork burgers (low fat mince), with mushrooms, green beans, peas and aubergines

    Milk from HE A for brews :coffee:

    Do you experts think I have I got any syns left for a Muller Light or something :cool:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
