    i want to lose mainly on my belly first and then back, thighs,. bust.. just want to tone up! last night at kung fu, i saw this woman who does capoeira before the kung fu class. its so hard as they are doing all sorts of different moves and then she comes to kung fu after.. that means 3 hours of a work-out for her. she had amazing toned arms and a flat belly. have to ask her.. she did say she works out like a demon!! i dont have that energy!!! i was going to buy a size 10 dress and try and fit into it by xmas, and i am a size 12 now..dont know if i am being realistic?

    Morning

    Sorry everyone about my complaining this past week. The pain from my EDS being this bad is fairly new and I'm not used to it.

    I think taking Xenical might be causing a side effect that is making my EDS worse so I think I have to stop taking them unfortunately.

    I will stick 100% to my diet now that pain has stopped and I am aiming to lose 7-10lbs between now and Christmas.

    And my OH comes back this evening :D
  • Sorry if that's a bit blunt. (I re-read it :o ) it I possible, but it would require basically not eating, and exercising all the time. Do u think that is realistic?

    Disclaimer: all meant in the nicest way!!

    Not sure if this is realistic or not as I don't really know how many lbs equals a dress size but maybe you could do it for valentines day instead as that gives you an extra 6 weeks?

    I am size 14 on top and size 16 on bottom and I think my first dress size goal would be to fit into size 14 trousers. By valentines day.

    I have found my new scales. :) It sends weight information to my PC and phone so I can keep track of my weight changes. Also it knows who I am by just standing on it so I don't have to fiddle with getting my profile up. It can also tweet my weight but I don't think I will be using that function. I can't wait until they are here.

    nah its not realistic. maybe i can just try and be happy in the size i am and when the weight is meant to fall off it will. stressing about it doesnt helps as it is a known fact that stress causes the release of cortisol which then goes around the tummy! grrrr

    olokia, i was the same size as you and SW helped me lose a bit of weight.. there is no group near me, otherwise i would join.. i amnot too sure about weight watchers though..cant wait to go and meet hubby to go and stuff our faces with some italian food! :p

  • I think I made the right chose last night. Bottle of wine (bad), no starter (good), under 600 cal main meal (good) delicious chocolate pudding (bad), finished when I was full and asked waiter to take it away (it was so nice I would have finished it even tho I was stuffed to the brim!)- good. N I had nearly 1000 cals for the meal as I was good all day. I'm sure I went over, but must have been under 2000 for all day!
