    This is really good because I am much more mindful about my habits, so far kept up my exercise and water but, went over my calories today, went out with my lovely sister.

    Over the next few days I have got a lot of must do decorating :happy: I believe this should help me with my overeat.

    The next few weeks will be tricky for me as I will be moving, etc etc :wink: not sure about internet access .... but, definately I am aiming to stick to my goals, our challenge and weigh in Friday.

    Yeahee we are all in this together :flowerforyou:

    I had a couple of bad days so I'm not sure how tomorrow's weigh in will be. Let's hope I lost something and didn't gain anything. LOL. Next week will be a different story though! :-)

    Heading to bed now, weigh in first thing in morning! Had a tough day, had to help deliver 1000 leaflets for a charity event my eldest daughter has organised so did some walking but ended up having a chinese takeaway for tea as the crockpot meal id prepared ended up overcooked and didnt taste too nice! Its my TOM as well so i prob wont loose as much as id like this week if any but hope to make up for it next week .... Good luck everyone :)

    Today I did much better I didn't get outside and do my C25K because I spent 6 hours cleaning my house from top to bottom and rearranging furniture so every muscle I has aches but I plan to get it in tomorrow !! I am excited for my weigh in tomorrow ;) I did well with calories today not so well yesterday but I did push both boys in the stroller yesterday and attempt C25K W1D3 with them both in the stroller but I couldn't run but 5 1/2 of the running segments ... I can't wait to get where I can do it with the stroller because they love it and I want to be a runner so bad but most days have to take the boys with me

    I had a great first week. I had weighed myself on 8/30, which was a few days before I joined the challenge, and I weighed in at 265. Despite slipping up a few times over the past week, I'm down 6 pounds. I'm now at 259. :happy:

    It was a ok week. I know that I am not losing as much as I want. I am going to cut down my carbs now.
    But I lost 2 this week so far.
