Re: Weight Loss Group
*raises her hand*
I am so in.
I can identify with those who are "all or nothing" - there are many foods I simply cannot have in the house. Yet I find myself still buying them sometimes. This needs to stop.
I will look forward to having my butt kicked by y'all as needed.
Yes!

Re: Weight Loss Group
Great idea, I started a weight loss motivation thread but nobody took much interest in it  but glad to see this one is working!
I have set myself 2 small goals: the first is to get back to my original pre-weight gain (so I will need to lose 9 or 10kg) and then to my ultimate weight, which is 60kg.
I hope this thread can keep us healthy, happy and motivated
After not weighing myself for 3 weeks, I was delighted to find that I lost 3kg. I was previously discouraged with my weight loss because for about 3 weeks, I hadnt lost anything so I just refused to look at the scales.
So the best advise I can give at the moment is not to be too discouraged but at the same time do not expect instant results!!!

That is so true. It's all about consistency over time. And having the accountability factor of a group like this is a huge source of support.
Here's to us!

Re: Weight Loss Group
Count me in on the excercise front. 10 minutes I can do, even tomorrow which is yucky day for me workwise. Yes its a friday but the actual day is stressful until i'm finally free at 5pm.

Re: Weight Loss Group
Ok, so 10 minutes? I can do that. Right now is my hardest time of the day. Trying not to binge on sweets. Don't have any in the house, but they aren't too far. Only a car ride away....Cannot give up. I have had no DP's at all. I must keep going....

Just don't allow yourself to leave at night ... it will help with your weight and your wallet the way gas is priced now lol ...

Re: Weight Loss Group
I will join in on the 10 minute challenge... and I bet everyone who does will find that after 10 min they will probably go on and do another 10!
