It's nice to have someone posting on this board!

It's pretty cold in Christchurch today, but at least it's not so windy and it's fine.

@nicnz I can't even contemplate going to a fitness class let alone teaching one. Good on you for getting to that stage!

@caj45 Congratulations on making so many changes. My stress levels have gone down too since I've been on track and exercising.

@malika1976 - thanks :-) First class is out of the way now.. onwards & upwards!
Only a couple days to go until #JunkFreeJune .... anyone taking part? It's gonna be a hell of a challenge to stick to it all month.. biscuits/muffins etc will be missed, going to have to look for alternatives for my sweet treats.

I hadn't heard of it but would be keen to give it a go. Might be a way to communicate that I don't want to eat junk food. At the moment refusing food at work is awkward.[/quote]

Yes it can be, often multiple times a week too pastries turn up and are placed at arms reach at my office.
junkfreejune.co.nz if you hadn't found it already
Aquired spaghetti squash for a couple meals (ive never cooked before) Next to do: stock up of frozen fruit for sweet after dinner treat...

did an arobic dvd again this morning Im still feeling sore from last nights sesh ran 7 kms walkd 3km had a few hrs sleep last night super hungry exhausted and beyon tired succumbed to a latte which ive recently quit coffee helped curb some hunger bright side is flu is over

oh gosh I know the feeling of going through yoghurt like nobodys business! and omg have you tried the puhoi valley yoghurt range? #DROOL! I usually make my own yoghurt I brought some greek flavors today and a plain 1 litre greek yoghurt but fresh and fruity only because it was on special for $2 lol. Making it I tell myself is the healthier alternative Im not entirely sure of this but it does seem to have less sugar than my fav. Puhoi valley yoghurt lol.
Good luck with the junk free july that's an awesome thing your doing there. If u get major biscuit cravings would you consider a protein cookie to be a healthy alternative? you buy them from the supplememts section in the supermarket if youd do them for july.
Anywho cheeking in today I am also tired lets blame this one on winter yea haha!. Legs and most my body are super stiff from circuit training the past two days keep in mind until two days ago I was a circuit training virg.

Checking in.... Awww snap, no extra loss this week

Happy July all, winter is in full force now brrrrr, getting harder to leave the house and head to gym in evenings brrrrr.
So yes, checking in, eating a little more than usual last few days I think(well it feels like I am), trying to stay warm, so pretty much maintaining weight within 1kg range... Up and down... Up and down. Not too bad I guess.
In few weeks am on holiday in the states, kinda scared about losing control of eating habits.

Ive been using MFP for a while but really lost my way. I would love to join with you and get on track.

It seems a little quiet for a daily check in thread....Winter blues???
