Needing a buddy
I used the new map service to see if there were any local people dieting who might want to be buddies, but it looks like no-one around here has actually used their page much, and I feel slightly disheartened, I was hoping to find someone to go swimming or running or something with one evening a week. Anyone got any suggestions, or should I just go on my own?

Finally moving something!
So I've finally started to shift this weight, ironic that its right before christmas, but fingers crossed I can keep off. I think as a reward if I make it to the end I should give myself a makeover, roll on the summer, this time I will make it into that tankini and I will get to feel good about myself.

surprised
Theres me, staring at my calorie intake for breakfast and thinking its very high when i realise that we're meant to have more than 2000 calories a day, so 330 for breakfast isn't that much. I think its the snacking and dinner thats my issue.... i need smaller portions and i need to stop picking at the kids left overs just because they are there.

Really struggling.
I just can't get to grips with this at the moment, I keep making excuses for myself and then getting annoyed about it. Completely pointless but I do it none-the-less. It doesn't really make any sense. Or maybe it does and I just don't want to face facts that I'm being lazy and trying to avoid it. If I don't deal with this then I will be miserable in front of a mirror for a very long time.

keep on going
Ok so I've just had the implant put in my arm, i've heard mixed stories on its side affects - gain weight - lose weight. So I'll just have to keep trying and hope it doesn't have a bad effect on the weight loss

fed up and determind.
Ok so its my birthday soon and I really wanted to shift the weight before then. But it hasn't happened, when I went out with my cousin the other week I was irritated to discover that I still look downright awful and that upsets me. In fact looking at the photos I ended up shutting the laptop and crying my eyes out, my husband says he's never seen me get that upset about my weight before and so he's stopped complaining about the low fat food and is now trying to encourage me. So, I have 2 weeks, can't expect miracles but I want to try and see if I can do something. Might even go to the lengths of excercising in front of stu - something I've never done before......

taking my time
With Christmas looming over head, dieting has an almost pointless feel to it, to be honest I am quite sick of it, I've decided to try and eat better without counting points or caloried, when the kids had chips last night I had rice. Afterwards to try and burn some of the calories I made them dance with me to the "Three to Tango" soundtrack - very bouncy, and a lot of work, 2 and 4 year olds have way more energy than I could ever hope to have. But its very good for you.
Eating smaller portions is not so easy, you don't feel hungry but somehow you just don't quite feel full so the urge to snack is there, but I think the snacking has more to do with boredom than hunger, for starters, over time the amount its taken to fill me up has increased, which to me says I don't actually need most of what I'm eating, I've just gotten used to eating it. So, I may get new scales and try and reduce what I'm eating, maybe I'll weigh the pasta or rice to see how much I use compared to what is the recommended amount. I think maybe I need to add more veg to things to pack it out....
Wow I didn't think I had much to say but I guess I had more than enough.

Gave up too soon.
Right, with my eldest now at school I think this is as good a time as any to really get back into this. I'm thinking of going to work part time, get some mornings in work, see if I can't for myself to make a little more effort this time. I have my tummy toner, my DVD and a stack of low fat cook books. Lets see if I can make this more interesting eh?
Maybe I should post my favourite receipes on here or something?

trying hard
Well I've signed up to this site in the hope that it will help keep me going with these last 13lbs. I managed to not gain weight over christmas, a challenge in itself. As a reward for what I've already lost I am going to buy myself some shoes but which ones I can't decide. I'll ask the BW girls who showed me this place I think.
