Great change Just_Me!
Welcome with us!

Right now I'm making myself a good rice with garlic and onions in it. It smells soooo good

Took a long walk last night, it is soooo cold outside, but when you wear a good coat and boots it refreshing!

Hey girls, you are all gorgeous!

I'm jealous... for those of you that are new..

I have a long way to go, I think I'll be here long after many of you are fit and healthy AND hot.

I did 30 minutes bike, 30 minutes treadmill and 30 minutes eliptical last night...

kinda lazy today though I did like a half-hearted 30 minutes on the bike... I'm trying to drum up motivation to do more but not sure, made a HUGE pot of chicken noodle soup and am slurping it up yum yum..

If I can get another 30 minutes in today even if its half-hearted I'll feel better about myself ... *decides to make it happen somehow*

Hey guys, it's been a crazy couple days. Eating and exercising haven't been great. I'm going to try and workout today. I'm trying to finish eating all the perishables in my house because I'm going to be at my parents' place for two and a half weeks.

Welcome to the new ladies, and I'm sad that Tish and MzzRach are absent. Keep checking up on us!

Keep it up girls, the craziness that is the holiday season is upon us. *gulp* I really want to keep up my exercising while I'm at my parents' place.

I'm so glad you girls are still motivated to do this, please motivate me!! I miss walking on the treadmill but i don't seem to bother looking at is

Nunu : the best source of motivation for me is to look at a picture of me that I hate! It's a kick in the butt that helps me everytime!

^^ I agree.. this is why I have recently posted some photos on facebook from our xmas party (last weekend) to keep me motivated. I keep reminding myself that I will not be like this at the next xmas party!

Congrats on the weight loss, Just Me!

It's 5:30 am. I've been up all night doing schoolwork. I just finished eating a bowl ramen (while thinking of your yummy-sounding chicken soup, snowflake!!). I only used half the powder packet, but I feel like a big, salty balloon.

 

[snowflakelashes]

Oye Lizzie, not sure on price comparison, but you can get 100 calorie soup packs, still salty but less fat and stuff, my dad has them and he has one everyday at lunch along with our routine salad.

Ramen tastes sooo good but it makes you feel sooo ick... i love the (taste of the) stuff but its a big no no healthwise so I'm avoiding it. Yup! If I go instant soup its the 33% less salt liptons . I always add extra veggies (just from mixed frozen veggies or whatever) to make myself believe I've healthed it up. Quick and easy.

I've had to avoid salt too...I love the Ramen, but after I eat it I feel

thanks Lizzie..It has been hard work...somedays I want to throw in the towel, but I'm going to keep going...

The salt is what kills me every time. I love salt, way more than sugar. It is my nemesis.

 

[snowflakelashes]

Mmmm salt... and...

Hey chickies....

well I have now been on my diet for a whole week and had my weigh-in this morning where I discovered that I lost 3.5kgs (7.7lbs) this week! Yay!

I've been trying to be good this week, but had to have a glass of champagne last night so as not to offend my sister's new boyfriend (he brought a bottle of champers to dinner).

Be strong girls... you can do this!

I've been trying to get back on track, hopefully start tomorrow.

Excellent motivation tool - go try on a bunch of clothes, like I did today.

Needless to say, I came home and did one of my workout videos.

 

[MrsMay]

^^ completely agree that that is a great motivational tool!

I was just looking a two dresses this morning that I bought recently that I love and have decided to buy them in 4 sizes smaller for when I get to my "goal" weight as I love them! I will use them as a gauge for how much I have lost every week

 

[Willa]

Congrats MrsMay!
Goods ideas girls

I did good today but was a little lazy, stayed in my pyjama all day long

 

[MrsMay]

^^ Nothing wrong with being lazy Willa! I will admit that I spent 70% of the day yesterday (Sunday) in my dressing gown while doing housework and pressing pigments!
