    I have lost nothing this week and it is hard to stick to the exercise routine. I am also often getting to the end of the day and realising I am only at 1000 calories, so having to go and snack to top me up to 1200. I am scared I will end up doing myself harm if I don't eat enough.

    Ah this is a hard week:yawn:

    ur het there mika. Dnt worry so much about only getting 1000 calories i get to that sumdays and hasnt done my loss no harm. If ur concerned try adding a few snacks between meals. Try have a cut off point each day for eating. I used to snack so bad in the evening, but now after my evening meal i wnt eat again till the morning. The main thing to remember is if ur hungry u should eat, if nt dnt worry bout calorie intake so much you know ur be under ur daily target. Hope that helps a little x

    thanks, that helps. I think I was worrying about it too much

    I have lost a little more this week after all, just enough to tip me over the one stone lost point:happy:

    Welcome back from your holiday Katherine! Thanks for your comment :smile:
    I'm feeling much better now thanks Katie, eating is just about back to normal - I was on late shift last week so I never get to have the chance of a proper dinner. 9-5 this week so I'll be back to 3 meals a day followed by some exercise. I've not exercised in ages!
    I was at a party last night and one of my friends said I looked as if I'd lost weight so I was happy about that.

    Everyone is doing well with their weight loss, well done! A woman at my work is wanting to lose about a pound a week before Christmas, so it worked out as a stone! Quite scary only 14 weeks to Christmas, but gives people a good target.

    Hello to all the new people. Mika - I'm from Scotland, live in Glasgow. Whereabouts are you from?

    Hello everyone...

    I have officially started back on the "waggon" after my holiday time.. im back to my normal eating habits of fresh fruit, veggies and meat.. not forgetting those few carbs in the morning for breakfast!! :laugh:

    Im still suffering with a cold/cough.. but i will keep at the food logging, even if the gym doesnt happen for another week.. at least i will be succeeding (sp?) in one thing! :wink: heh!

    14weeks before xmas... :noway: jeeze.. where has this year gone?

    I hope everyone had a lovely weekend?

    Katherine :heart:

    I know, I've started making a note of presents I see for people so I won't forget! So far on my own Christmas list I have new ipod speakers, coz I somehow managed to leave mine in Ibiza :frown:

    My throat is starting to play up again. I was wanting to get back into exercising but I don't want to make myself worse. Just watching extra closely what I'm eating.

    I'm meant to be going out tomorrow night for a Freshers week thing. My boyfriend is still at uni so he wants to go. I'm only going to have a couple of drinks though so I can make it to my work on Thursday!

    Hope everyone's feeling better than I am.

    I'm hiding away until the scales stop saying 12st 4 lol.
    everything seems slower since i stopped the cigs. i know its good but its just gonna take a little longer yet. maybe it will have to be octobers challenge to get to 11.13st again. grrrr!!!

    guess im just bothered coz i've been there once this year and now i can't get back!

    LOL... hiding.. thats what i feel like doing sometimes! You've made so much progress so dont get downhearted hun! Keep up the fantastic work! Maybe your building more muscle now so the weight loss is not as noticable? You look great though so dont worry so much! Plus your so close to your goal so its always harder to loose! I know as im so close to my goal weight!

    I have yet to give up the cigs.. i still see them as my only enjoyment as im not eating so many sweeties n biccies! :tongue:

    OH MY GOSH!!!!

    im so excited! my university is running the level 3 nutritional advice and weight management course and also the level 2 gym instructor course this year!!! and i can afford to do both!!!

    i already have my level 2 nutrition and healthy eating so i can get on the level 3 nutrition
    and all i need to do for the level 2 gym instructor is improve my fitness
    its going to cost £400 total but its going to be worth it because it will get me on the register or exercise professionals and i will be able to go straight into work with it

    yey!!!!

    Monday's cool. I'm back from london Monday day time so we will both be knackerd. But your right I will motivate you.
    Had a run myself yesterday first time in ages I have tried and wasn't to bad.
    I should be half way there by the time you see me so you can give me an honest oppinion. I'm determined to get there by Xmas.

    So is it a weekend on the tiles in Nottingham?

    Hello mate

    Dont hide away, you just got to the wall stage. Keep running at it and your get through trust me.
    I'm finding it so hard to shake off any weight easy atm. I'm working double as hard to keep getting my 2lb a week loss. Your doing great with the smokes though, think i'm going to pack them in next year.

    keep going

    Very true my plan was to get to my goal weight and then quit smoking but i just thought it would be easier to quit before i tried running again lol.
    anyways scales said 12st 3 today so i guess that is good. wait and see what next week brings.
    catcha soon.
