    KP - It's a geeky reference to a Joss Whedon comic...I'm a bit of a nerd!

    Exercise wise, managed to get up and go to the gym this morning AND walked to work after. This is a HUGE achievement for me as I only started going to the gym for the first time ever on Sunday! Only managed to burn about 250 in the gym though :( Really want to go on the rowing maching, but there were lots of men around them this morning, so I had no chance of getting on one...thinking of going on there first tomorrow morning before cycling!

    How about you? What are your aims for exercise? What do find is the best equipment?

    Yay for sushi! Have you tried the Boots Shapers range? They don't tend to have mustard in them...or at least I haven't noticed...

    Dammit! I'm 14g over my fat limit, and that's the first time I've done it since starting on MFP. :-( That would be my tea that's done it. KNowing my luck, I'll put a stone on tomorrow because of it. lol.

    Lol.. Lee, I only have to look at a cake to put on a stone!! I wouldnt worry.. its only one day my friend!! :-) Keep up the great work..

    ..And also i know what you mean about not noticing the weightloss yourself.. you look at yourself pretty much everyday (i know i do) and havent noticed much of a change... just my clothes feel looser and i can fit into new sizes.. hmm

    Good thanks, how was yours? I've managed to avoid all the biscuits which have been doing the rounds at work! Although I had a sneaky shortbread today! I've got my weigh in tonight so fingers crossed, I only stayed the same last week but put it down to changing from slimming world to calories! Hope I've lost x

    Haha, me too! :-) I have been good today though, so will no doubt be under the fat limit. Giving myself a days rest from the gym and going to the cinema.

    I've had a few more compliments aswell from other people on our team in work! A couple of the girls said my skin looks really good, which I'm glad about as I suffered from really bad acne a few years ago and to see it all clear up fully and not have any lingering scars is very nice! :-)

    I'm sure they will be fine for the weekend, KP! :-)

    I must have just been going through a stage where I was getting loads all the time, no matter what I tried I couldn't get rid of them. I think I just got rid of them by aging myself out of the stage I was in. lol. I very rarely get them now.

    - Weighed the same again today but I'm not going to let it get me down! :noway:
    - Out to lunch after ...not going to let that get me down either! ! :noway:
    - I lied about doing he Latino DVD last night ... That hasn't worried me either! :noway:
    - I decided that Chaz the cat was probably more pleasing on the eye than I was ,so changed the profile image ... no worries there . :laugh:

    So ... All in all a lovely day here in SUNNY ...Yep!! ... North Wales. :smile:
    Good start ... Hope all of you can have a little of the sunshine too.:drinker:

    Morning all!!
    Well VERY disappointed that my scales have not moved in 3 days :o( Not sure what else I can do?

    KP, hope you're ok hun. Sounds like you could be a bit run down? I would take a little rest from the gym and get plenty of vitamin C- kiwis are great :o) And B vits too meat & poultry are the best sources but you can get a good amount from asparagus, broccoli, spinach, bananas and dried apricots.

    Jim Jam- WOOP! Well done :o)
