I looked back over my diary for the last couple of months. It's not portion size. It's the little nibble here and there. =) I'm pretty anal about portion size. But it's those little bites of this and that (which I track) that are the culprit! I'm gonna keep a reign on those! Thanks for the suggestions!

Swallow. But only on toast with butter. I'm a Kiwi, and vegemite is pretty staple in pantries here. =) Peach iced tea.

I'm 20. Feel free to add me! xox

Oreo addict: 22?

Sorry!!! All the 26yos I know look young. =) Don't take offence. You look young!

jennajava: 26. =) My DP doesn't show my face.

Hey! I'm from New Zealand, I'm 20-years-old. I'm married, and am about to go into my third year of my university degree, Bachelor of Education (Teaching) - Primary/Diploma of Education Studies. I've got two years left of my four year degree, and have been on three classroom placements. I find placement soooo hectic! I've…

Hey! I'm Elisha. I'm a twenty-year-old university student in New Zealand. I plan to burn my calories through switching between Zumba and the 30 Day Shred DVDs. I'm planning to get the Boost Metabolism Burn Fat DVD, also, to workout to this. My husband and I have decided to do a half marathon in October, so we'll be running…

I am 5 foot 2. I'd like to be 54kg, which is 119.05lb. However, I'll take it to where I feel comfortable with my body, as I've always been around 180, and looking back at pictures from when I was 165, I looked thin. So I'll take it slow and decide as I go. But I'd love to weigh that much. =)

Another thought: are you excited about what you're eating? I try and get exciting foods. My husband and I are not well off at all. He works in a cafe, as I'm a student, training to be a primary teacher. So being at uni, I am busy, and neither of us get paid a lot. In fact, at the moment, we're living on his minimum wage…

I'm terribly interested! (Though, here in NZ, I wouldn't reveal my swimsuit body to the public in NZ in April. Winter, ouch!)

Oh gosh... I fully understand you. I eat clean, mostly. (I try to keep balanced, so that it's a maintainable lifestyle.) Since beginning trying to lose weight, I've put on 9.3kg. Which amounts to a LOT of pounds. =P Have you tried taking measurements? I was getting so incredibly discouraged, but I've lost over 10cm from…

WOW! You both look so young after! This is seriously inspirational!

<3 My heart absolutely goes out to you. When we were dating, my husband's dog got his paw tangled in a bit of wire in the back yard. They couldn't save his paw, and my husband couldn't afford to pay for the surgery. His brother had been paying for the vet bills, but at this point, it was getting too expensive. He got his…

I've tried to do it so so so many times. And this time, I've finally stuck with it. I guess I got bored of it and lost motivation, too! But I'm on Day 9 of Level One, and tomorrow will be my final on day one and I find it easier on L1, now, and know I'm ready to move on. But I'm doing the ten, ten, ten thing. I agree -…

In that first wedding picture, that was a bridal shoot with some photographer friends. I was at my largest. The actual wedding photos, I was 6kg lighter. =)

Haha, thank you. I'm 20, training to be a teacher, and some of the kids have told me I'm 15. Crack up! I know what you mean. You think you're fat, then, but really, you're not! =)

I've just done my eighth day of level one, but I'd love to join in for accountability! I've tried to stick with it so many times, so I'm really proud of myself. It hurt to move for the first two or three days. Now I'm fine with it! Last time I began doing it, I got to the point where I'd started and stopped with L1 so many…

She's not necessarily fishing for compliments. Some people have low self esteem. Yes, she's tiny, and I'd love to be her weight and height. But everybody is different, and she may feel "fat". I don't think it's fair to say she's compliment seeking. Perhaps she has body dismorphia... But no! I agree, she is certainly not…

Far out! That's an amazing result! I'm on day 7 of the shred, and this makes me determined to finish strong!!!

The IMG needs to be lower-case. xox

I'm a roundy, too! =) At my largest: I'm still about the same weight, and this is my most recent pic: The weight seems to be sticking to my face. Lol. And this was what a good hairstyle can do to un-round my face: When I was smaller (and I thought I was fat, then!!!): That random guy next to me is now my husband. =)

I would love your body. =) But I know how you feel. Even if I was thin, my hips and ribs would still be quite thick. (There's little flab I can pull at on my hips.) You have a really nice athletic figure. Flaunt it, I say! Seriously - you just look like you're into lots of sport, and quite fit and slim! It's a great…

Hey! I totally feel your pain with the scales. I've been on here for near on a year, working my bum off. Yet the scales haven't changed yet. =) BUT... I have lost 7cm on my belly button... I've lost 5cm on each thigh... And 7cm on my ribs. Sooooooooo... I guess the point is, you could be gaining muscle. I talked to my…

I'm in! I keep stopping and starting. October is IT! =)

Thanks for the replies! I've combatted the bra problem cheaply, by safety pinning the cups together. (I think I'll get a 12A and an extender.) I've started cycling again, today, to see if it helps. A couple of years ago, my husband and I used a stationary cycle for an our a day, each, and I lost weight from my hips. So…

Thank soooo much, guys and gals! I'm glad it's not just me!

Where is the freaking "LIKE" button???? That has to be such a great feeling! <3

Oh... Didn't work..

=) There we go!
