    have just read a really good book...the lazy girl's guide to losing weight and getting fit by AJ Rochester...it has an affirmation in it which you use to keep you focused...i commit to being the very best that i can be.i deserve to love, to be loved and most importantly of all, to love myself. i deserve a healthy body and will never give up on myself, no matter what happens, and i promise to do whatever it takes to make it happen. today is the first day of the rest of my life. Shazam! :)

    no one can make this happen except you...you deserve to be healthy and enjoy life...you know that exercise will make you feel more energetic and improve your motivation and help you work better....set yourself a treat "if i walk every morning m-f i will treat myself with a ...manicure......candlelit bath......pair of shoes".....NOT A FOOD TREAT! reward and treat yourself and write down your reward list....when i lose 2lbs i will....when i am under calorie goal 7 days..... you can do this!

    Starting weight for challenge - 103.5kg
    Today's Date - Nov 3rd
    Today's weight - 101.6kg
    Goal weight for challenge - 99.5kg (was originally 101kg)
    Your personal goal - exercise 5x a week
    complete food log EVERY day
    add 5 friends

    After weeks of of putting in loads (ok, some) effort to improve my lifestyle and watching my weight continue to creep up, I've finally reached a turning point. Today was my second weigh-in which showed a loss and it was more than I expected - the fact that I had to lose the shoes (or gain 2") and hadn't had time to eat beforehand like I usually do probably helped, but I doubt that would account for 2kg.

    I'm managing my exercise so far and I've been logging all my food. I'm not really trying to control what I'm eating at the minute, but having to own up to what I'm eating is making me think about it a bit more. It should give me a few ideas for some new targets as well, once these become second nature. Feeling hopeful and motivated at the minute.

    Good luck, everyone!

    Not my best day. Ate lunch at Shane's Rib Shack AND skipped on th gym. Dinner was good, salmon and spinach. Dessert not so much, carrot cake and wine. Tomorrow is a new day, and I gotta keep my head in the game. It's too early to give up.

    All weigh ins up to here have been posted on the spreadsheet.

    Would you guys rather update the spreadsheet yourselves or do you prefer it this way, where I do it for you all? Totally up to you guys!

    I don't mind posting it myself; less work for you! I weighed in today but because of TOM (I think) it shows I've maintained after an excellent week of staying under my calories. I'm going to give it one more day for effects of TOM to disappear and weigh in again tomorrow before I post the same weight. If nothing else, I'm sure I'll have a good loss by next Friday!
