    66. Do you have short-term goals too? What are they?
    Yes, though they are weight related. Just pasted 200 pounds, so I got my hair done! Next one is at 182.5, which I'll get a new outfit!

    32. Try a new fruit today. Learn how to cut/eat it and enjoy! How was it?

    Hmmm, not a big fruit eater but OK, I'll give it a go. Not sure what to try though as I've already eaten a lot of the more 'exotic' fruits. Just found an interesting list for anyone else on Day 32: http://listverse.com/2011/07/08/top-20-fruits-you-probably-dont-know/ - think I'll give the "vomit fruit" a miss!

    67. Today is no Internet day. That’s right, you will try just one day to be off the Internet, post your progress/food log/training schedule
    tomorrow, because today, you are going back to basics!
    Blew this one! I'm already on now!

    17. Do you have a special event/date you want to lose the weight for?

    No. And I realized that my body has it's own tempo of losing weight. All I can do is being aware of what I eat and exercise.

    11. Today you will be cooking for your whole family. Find a healthy recipe online that they will also enjoy and show them how tasty healthy food can be!

    Could not cook today. It's a full day with 8 hours at work, 2 hours at university, 3 hours on the road.
    I have cooked during the weekend so tonight I enjoyed a zuchinni, green beans and chicken stew.
    Also, home alone tonight. I might share a piece of chicken with the cat. :))

    I've not added to this in ages, so I'll do lots in one go.

    11. Cook healthily for family. Every day I cook for my husband and it is healthy. We both like healthy food. But he goes to running club tonight and I am going on a night shift, so not today
    12. Least fave cardio. Not sure. Team sports I guess but I like most exercise
    13. Fave strength. Chin ups if I can do them. I could do 10 but doubt i Can do any at mo. makes me feel super fit and strong :laugh:

    15.Current weight. Still 59kg. At goal. Just maintaining now:heart:
    16. part of body I want to change. Hmm. I tend not to diss my body. It is healthy and I respect it but my face is wonky from Bell's palsy so maybe this.
    17. Any special event I wanna lose weight for? I want to be slim all the time. Always bikini ready ideally
    18. Use as little salt as poss. I rarely add salt but I do run a lot and I lose a lot through sweat so it does need to be added sometimes. Hyponatremia (possibly spelt wrong) is not a good place to be
    19. I was losing weight at a healthy speed. Max 1 kg a week
    20. Biggest weight loss inspiration. Hmm. Probably people on this site. But my main inspirations are really amazing athletes like Chrissie Wellington, Paula Radcliffe and Mimi Anderson . Very inspiring ladies

    22. Weight. Still 59kg
    23. I drink about 3 litres a day or more. Probably too much. All water
    24. Eating disorder ever? Nope, thankfully. I do obsess too much sometimes but no, nothing serious.
    25. Have a smoothie. Nope, not today. I would have one every now and then but I like to eat food. Tho i do love soup :laugh:
    26 and 27. My family and friends know I like to stay slim but I don't talk about it too much. They support this
    28.fave snack. Chocolate!! But I rarely eat it these days ( I gave up 4 weeks ago and will next have some in 6 weeks)
    29.still 59kg
    30. Vege or vegan? I have been a vege for 24 years. I will never ever go back.

    That's me done for now. I enjoy these :drinker:

    13. What is your favorite type of strength exercise?

    I love working out on my arms with 0.5/1 kg dumbbells. Just to get a little strength, not getting my arms to muscular.

    Lets have a go at it =]

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

    height- 5'9

    current weight- 268

    goal weight- 220

    I am trying to lose weight so that I feel better about myself...I have a lot of "chubby girl pride" as I call it, so I don't feel the urge to be thin..I would just like to be healthy and at the low end of the plus size scale =]

    15. Write your current weight. Have you lost anything in the past week? If not, what are your plans for this week?

    This morning I did my weekly weight in and I am 87.6 kg (meaning 193 pounds). That means I have lost 0.5 kg (1 lbs) this week.

    72. Do you eat the same meal as your family or do you eat specially prepared food?
    Usually the same. I usually make dinner so I canes sure out my portions before telling them its ready, and if I don't want something I've made, then ill add a bunch of fruit to my plate.

    18. Try to use as little salt as possible today or maybe even none! Don’t buy microwave meals and don’t eat foods high in sodium.

    again... too late... I had some salted nuts, because this was the only thing I could buy/eat at the airport that was kind of low carb/sugar.

    And I need some salt to keep my blood pressure from going too low...

    But I do never buy microwave meals. Or other convenience food.

    16. Which part of your body do you wish to change the most and why?
    My belly area. I am an apple shape so I have more fat around the belly.

    I accidently missed yesterday sense I was so busy working..so I will do 2 =]

    2. Describe your dream/goal body.

    I would like to be able to loose a lot of my tummy as well as my love handles...besides that I would say toned thick legs and a much larger butt..I would also like my arms to be much smaller

    3. Is your UGW in an unhealthy range of BMI?

    Yes, My goal weight is still in an unhealthy range of BMI but I am alright with that..going from a 40 to a 32 would be pretty awesome as far as I am concerned..and even now I have great blood pressure and no signs of health related problems so I am sure losing 50 pounds isn't going to put me at higher risk lol

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

    5'3",
    CW: 214.2
    GW: 160

    I need to lose weight because of health issues. I want to lose weight to be comfortable in my own skin, wear whatever I want and conquer this lifelong problem.

    First Post ever!!

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

    5'3"
    CW 207.4
    GW not sure 135-140ish

    I have a few reasons for wanting to lose weight. The current goal is to look sexy in my wedding dress this August. But I also want to be a good role model for my kids and to get healthy.

    Sounds fun!

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

    5'1"
    Current: 127-30 range (I haven't weighed in recently!)
    Goal: 115-120

    I'd like to lose a few pounds to gain back my confidence in clothes, especially during summer time! Also a close friend is getting married this year (Dec1) & I would like to tone up & slim down to look good at her wedding! (: I'm more focused on toning up and adding muscle than actual weight loss (for my height/weight I am at a healthy BMI--but close to overweight BMI so I'd like to bring it down)

    I also want to focus on my health & well being & just be as healthy as I can be & feel great. I'll be graduating college in May (exciting!) so I just want to look & feel my best!!!
