    I may have started with a little too much enthusiasm. I've done 20 mins of 30DS, 45 mins of Zumba, 30 mins of walking and an hour of pretty vigorus (and it really was vigorus) cleaning. MFP is telling me I've burned 1089 calories. I know that the MFP calories is a bit generous with it's calories, so I'm knocking a third off that to be safe. That still leaves me with 726 extra calories to eat. I don't think that's going to be happening tonight on top of what I already have left.

    I think tomorrow, may be a tad slower lol.

    How's everyone else's day been?

    My day has been fine so far. Went for a bad session of C25K this morning. had to walk a little in the last interval. And in the afternoon me and my friend took a long walk for about 2h...
    Tomorrow we will walk some more but first thing tomorrow morning is to build some muscle. My first dumbbell routine. Lets see how it turns out!

    So the before pics.... not flattering!

    This is my first time posting my measurements so am a bit hesitant about doing so...especially since I am the biggest girl in the group, but I figure I have been posting my weight so may as well buck up and do this too. And I know I am loved so I guess no harm will come of it.

    SW: 327.8 pounds
    GW: 300

    neck: 14.5 in / 37.3 cm
    chest: 44 in / 112.1 cm
    waist: 47 in / 119.8 cm
    hips: 69 in / 175.6 cm
    rt thigh: 31 in / 79.2 cm
    rt arm: 15 in / 38.6 cm

    I will get my now pics posted probably tomorrow. They will definitely NOT be in shorts and sports bra.....that would chase everyone away!! But I will do in a dress, in pants and blouse, and possibly shorts & tank top (not sure on that one yet). How do I post them on here?

    1,2,3,4 challenge:

    1 gal water/tea daily
    2 gym workouts
    3 walks (min 1 mi each)
    4 hrs wii sports

    I measured my bust, not under - will modify my number if I measured at the wrong place...

    Hanna, I measured my bust, not under also.


    Rach, I know how you feel about working and day care balance. Its a tough one. Hopefully your daughter will enjoy the 4 weeks in day care. And how wonderful to be so close to your goal. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Then you can decide if you want to go further or not. I have put my goal weight as 75kg. Some charts say 65kg. When I was a dancer my weight was between 59 and 61kg. I don't think that thin would suit me now.

    Tami, we love you know matter what the numbers are. Photo's are the scariest. I think we need to workshop loving ourselves in photos. :heart:

    Rach - I personally loved day care. I hope she will do so as well.

    Tami - I had to do some thinking whether to post in sports bra nd shorts, but i figured that it's only you guys and that is how i've been dressed in my pics since January. Definitely not how I am dressed while working out. You are loved no matter what size or shape you are.

    Thanks for all the measurements etc.... And for being brave and posting photos... I measured under the bust where the bra strap goes - it's up to you if you want to change it - you don't have to as long as you measure in the same place at the end of the 10 weeks x

    I measured my bust, not under, but I'll stick with that.

    Just been to a nutrition seminar as organised by the lady who runs our boot camp. It was good, but scary ... no sugar, no bread ... I'll start working towards those, but I know both will be a struggle for me!

    Right I'm off to skip!

    Hello! It's my dad's birthday today too! So I've had a lovely piece of triple layer strawberry and champagne cake to celebrate... I also had a snickers (shhhhh!) so all being done I'm under calories today with no exercise! BUT WAIT! I'm going to do 30ds once I've got the kids in bed and my 50 crunches... and I'm pretty much up to speed on my water intake today..

    Bit gutted though cos my boxercise class has been cancelled (again) this Friday as our instructor Nikki has been asked to go and help out on her son's school trip... But I've managed to get on the zumba class instead so will be doing that on Friday... I know she wouldn't cancel the class if there were more of us doing it but I think this week there was only going to be 2 of us so I can't be too cross... I do love boxercise though!

    I'll update later when I've done my workout..

    Jenni - hope you had a wonderful day of celebrating your daughter's birthday and have a fab day with your husband tomorrow....

    I also hope that by the end of this 10 week challenge we'll ALL feel happy to put our photos on the thread!

    Sooo.... I did some weight lifting this evening. 15 minutes. That is too short but I have to find a good routine. Tonight I was just improvising... Need to drink some more water before bed today and tomorrow I'll go for a 25 minute run. Which I am not at all looking forward too since the last one did go extremely crappy. Well well, that is life!

    have a great Wednesday my lovely losers!

    I'm doing good on my 10 mins skipping a day, terrible at getting to bed before 10pm. I don't know what's wrong with me! I'm so tired, yet I stay up late ... ah well, boot camp tomorrow, so tonight I WILL be in bed by 10pm. I'm going to make some 'protein' muffins, that we were given a recipe for last night, and I'm going to plan something more interesting for tomorrow's dinner ... then that will be my 2 recipes trialled!

    Right I'm off to tidy the house up before I have to pick up Bill from school ...
