Hi everyone,

I joined here last weekend and started getting weighed and measured properly from last Monday.

I got weighed today at work in front of the office (gulp) and had lost 6lbs and I also got measured at home and had lost 2inches off my waist and bum, and 1 inch off each thigh, bust, hips, widest part, each arm and each leg. 13 inches in total

I have worked my butt off in the gym doing all sorts to keep me interested and love it and have eaten real well even tho I had 2 meals out with friends in the last week.

It is sooooo worth it... I feel totally motivated now to carry on and get to my goal :) I couldnt do it without support tho.

I am very lucky in that my house mate tara doesnt work at the min and she offered to cook us both a healthy meal each night so I dont have to worry bout it when I get home from work and the gym and my friend Helen has joined the gym to help keep me going as I wont let her down and my boss Jim weighs me in the office each week.

I love this site too, reading entries that inspire me, keeping a record of all I eat and the exercise I do. its all great

Anyways, just had to share it with you, I am one very happy bunny today :) x
