WEEK 1

Day 4

So far so good. Haven't stuck to diet completely.
Can't give up my morning and afternoon coffee. Also don't like eggs so have been swapping that for cereal.

Been keeping active by:
Doing more work @ work lol!
Started gardening. Got vege garden planted working on pot plants for garden down side of house.
Exercising, have about 20 workout dvd's so going through those for a variety of excercise.

Jumped on scales this morning and lost 1kg!!! - stoked!!!!
Just gotta work harder on exercise and giving up the coffee.

WEEK 2

Day 10

Well had a big blow out on the weekend. I bought a slushly machine and had to try it out. So drank too much alcohol and ate too much.

So Monday I started from week 1 again. I've been ok with eating do feel hungry but just drink more water or do something to keep my mind occupied.

But even with the weekend I still lost 1kg.
Trying to do more exercise but finding some of my dvds are a bit advanced for my fitness level LOL!! And trying to find a bike so I can start cycling to work.

Well day 4 again and just ate a fat piece of chocolate mud cake!
Broke up with my "friend" last night so not feeling soo good and cake was there and I was there and yeah.

Jumped on scales this morning and lost 0.5kg but cake may have put that back on just going to do a bit more exercise tonight go out for a walk then go shopping.

People may think shopping ain't good but I can take hours in a mall by myself so 2 hours walking round shopping is 2 hours low paced exercise I reckon.

WEEK 5

Well I'll be honest, haven't been following the diet or exercising. Have had a few emotional barriers to deal with. Been away from home a lot and drinking too much alcohol lol!

But I have managed some how to lose another 1.5kgs and keep off the other 1kg I lost. So no weight gain so that's good.

I bought a bike today and picking in up Saturday so will start biking to work next week.

I'm just going to watch what I eat and exercising from now to New Years and be full on into diet in the new year.

Even though I haven't been sticking to this diet the information in it has been informative and I'm checking all foods now for calourie intake and thinking twice about what I'm eating.

Wow well isn't that good for you?? You're eating cake but losing 1.5 kgs a week?

I dont know with you but it sounds good to me.. what more if you stuck to it?

[jazysue]

Well I bought this diet back in November (8 months ago) Tomorrow I'm going back on it!
I joined the gym and have been doing zumba for the last 2 and half months. I haven't lost any weight but am feeling a lot fitter. At least when I go to Zumba now I'm enjoying it and after 5 mins I'm not thinking 'oh god are we finished yet?' now I think after 1 hour 'Is that it? I can do 1 more song' lol
So tomorrow back on this diet and with my almost 6 day a week exercise programme the kilo's should melt off.

Day 1

Day 1 has been and gone - yaaah!
Didn't feel so bad was busy as at work so that kept my mind off food.
Did my normal Monday night Zumba class and that was soo much fun (yes I'm saying exercise was fun lol)

Anyway day 2 tomorrow so far so good.

[jazysue]

Day 2 & 3

Well day 2 and 3 were ok.
Ate a few things I shouldn't have on day 3 someone bought me lunch and I didn't wana be rude and say 'no thanks' all I could think about was how much more exercise I'd have to do to get burn off what I ate lol.

Day 2 - Did 1 hour at the gym and followed diet that day.

Day 3 - Did a 1 hour body balance class and ate a few things I shouldn't have.

I have cut down on how much I eat and no feeling hungry either.

Roll on Day 4.

Day 4 and 5

Well day 4 didn't go so well.
I've got family staying with me and they wanted to go out for dinner last night so didn't have my salad like I was suppose to. But I did go to zumba before hand lol.

Day 4 - Hand a bit more for lunch coz I was going to zumba after work and needed something for energy also went out for dinner.

Day 5 - stuck to the diet today no exercise planning to do 1 hour of zumba and 1 hour of yoga tomorrow.

Haven't weighed myself yet waiting for day 7 to do that. But do have a lot of energy and feeling pretty good.
