    2. Describe your dream/goal body - Toned. As simple as that!

    3. Is your UGW in an unhealthy range of BMI? - UGW is 106lb, this would put my BMI at 20 (as opposed to 21 now!! haha) I'm more concerned about body fat % than BMI!!

    4. Have a vegan day today. No meat, no eggs, no dairy, no animal products whatsoever. Give it a try! - I almost succeeded... But had to have a cup of tea with milk!

Going to carry on with c25k and try to do weighs 3 times this week

    9. What is your favorite type of cardio? - c2k5 at the moment. I'm not very good at doing cardio for a long period of time, so this suits me down to the ground!

    10. Do you count calories? If so, what is your daily limit? - Yes, it's the only way I can keep track of what I eat. Daily limit 1,230, if I exercise, then I eat back the calories

    I forgot to do this yesterday, so here's is both days

    9. What is your favorite type of cardio?

    I prefer classes like zumba or dvds that are fun, I liked running but injury is preventing me at this moment from doing that (the injury was a cycling crash) so I also like cycling -
    Basically anything that isn't the cross trainer

    10. Do you count calories? If so, what is your daily limit?

    I log my food here,, I've just changed from eating at maintenance for the last 2 months (recovery period) which was about 2k to 1200+ exercise cals, , so most days it's about 1500-1600, I'll know doubt change this in a few months, most likely to either maintenance for a while or zig-zag cals.

    60. Ditch sugar and ALL sweets today. For just one day promise yourself you won’t eat any candy, sugar, sweets or any similar food.
    Couldn't ditch all sweets but I did put back the dessert I was thinking about for lunch!

    I tried a day with more veggies, but I do not ever give on animal products. At least an yogourt I must have.

    Absolutely love this idea!

    1. Write your current stats: height, current weight and goal weight. Why are you losing weight?

    5'6", SW 252, CW 199, GW 150. I'm losing weight to avoid health complications and to, for the first time in my life, feel confident and sexy and to wear the clothes I want instead of ones from plus size stores. Also I'm a single gal and i don't want to be single forever, I'd like a family at some point in the future :smile:

    31. What are your favorite workout clothes you own?

    LOL, "favourite" workout clothes. I have one old faded t-shirt, one pair of lycra calf-length leggings which are full of holes along the inner seams, and one pair of trainers with the soles falling off. Oh, and one exercise bra with a broken clasp. I'll treat myself to new items only if I meet my Christmas goal.

    65. Post a picture of your goal body or a person you strive to look like.
    If I had it uploaded anywhere, I would. I have a picture of me, a couple of months after I had my daughter, and I must have been around 150 pounds. I looked super skinny!

    2. Describe your dream/goal body.

    Toned and athletic, but I'm realistic and know I'll never look like Jessica Ennis! Though I'd like to be toned and get rid of the belly flab and bingo wings and be a size 12, a size I've never been in my life!

    Dream goal is to walk into any shop and be able to shop for clothes!
