    Thanks Amie! So far I love the program, and noticed it has a lot of stuff that I have typed in. Pretty cool. :)

    Pep: I know what you mean. I had no will power as well. Now, I am doing so much better, I used to love drinking my pepsi but now, I have cut that out. I cut down on my plate portion as well at supper time. Instead of using a dinner plate, I use a desert plate instead. I have an elliptical that I need to get on but just don't have the energy to do it at night. I get up and move around alot, go for walks and stuff. So, I guess it is not too bad.

    Pep,
    It can be hard getting started and committed (obviously, or we wouldn't all be here ;) ). Definitely keep coming to the boards for motivation, and inspiration. There are also some great recipe ideas as well.

    My ibbgest thing was/is when I mess up I kind of want to throw in the towel and say F - it. But every time you eat, is a time to make a good choice. So you messed up at the BBQ and w/ Chinese. Oh well! Begin now! It is SO fantastic seeing progress, so hang in there!!

    Take Care!

    Thanks Aime, yeah i am back in the right frame of mind now and def not drinking for a while ! so that always helps. i'll look out for the recipes still getting used to the site at the mo. I think when i see the weight coming off i'll be more motivated.

    Zita:Thanks i've been trying to a bit on the wii fit and also leaving the car and walking, i need to exercise cos i love my food so much i can cut down but can't be too strict or i give up .

    hope your both doing well good luck speak soon
