Me too! Have to lose at least 5 pounds!

Hi! Would love to add you to the friends list, and I need some friendly motivation too! :) Have 20kg to lose!

Woohoo! I'm going to search out for a red picture now! Home ill with the cold, and still plan on keeping to losing weight! Go RED!

Monday QOTD: I'd have to say I think I could possibly have J Lo's body type. TUESDAY QOTD: Most of us are losing weight because we don't like our bodies or we want to be healthier and stronger, but what wouldn't you want to change about yourself? Name a PHYSICAL part of you that you like about yourself AND you are NOT…

I've got work today (Sunday)...well, a self imposed exile in the office cos I've got loads to finish before my magazine goes off to print. The upside of it is that I'm away from all the weekend temptations that I just know my family is putting together, and so I get to save my calories for the Pizza Party at a friend's…

Thurs QOTD: I guess everybody's comments affect me when it comes to my weight. Especially when it's from my family, and sometimes it just makes me so upset that I feel like I do not want to lose weight...maybe just to rebel against the system or something. Well, I've come to terms with it, and this time, nothing's going to…

I'm finding it really tough too...plus, this week is all about late nights for me at the office, and I'm exhausted! I know the proteins and all that, just don't know to balance it together. :S

My big reward would be a trip to the movies!

Hey Kristyann, I'm sorry to hear your of your loss. My prayers go out to your family and you in this difficult time. Take care!

I don't have a pet and to be honest am quite petrified of alot of animals...yes, it's a laugh really, but to me it's a real fear after being bitten a long time ago. Sooo...if I do have a pet, it might be a fishes in a tank, and the small cute ones. :P

That sounds like an awesome all day workout really. I had a rough time too with travelling so my whole schedule is messed up. I guess doing anything that is not your regular work is workout enough, cos that means extra calories burnt. I think this week's challenge is going to drive me nuts really watching out for a…

You girls are so encouraging and inspiring! And we made it to number one this week!!!

Oh yes! We're TOPS!!!!!!! Way to go Team Purple! And good job everyone on this challenge!

I'm so sorry everyone, I put on two pounds. :( But I'll work even harder next week.

Oh my goodness! This must be my biggest wish ever! Definitely make Pasta zero calorie!!!!

Thursday QOTD: Ever since you started on your weight loss journey, what has been your biggest obstacle and how did you over come it Biggest obstacle is probably my job, cos of the long hours and really, all I want to do after work is just to zone out and do nothing. This really discourages me from exercise, so I just do…

Wed QOTD: IF YOU COULD HAVE ONE FREEBIE WHERE YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK AT CHANGING IT, WHERE OR WHAT WOULD IT BE? Definitely a flat tummy.......barely ever had one...always could grab some around the lower abs. HAhahahaha

Alrighty folks, it's my turn today! :) For alot of us, it's not just about the numbers that are shown on the scale. Often it's the hope that we'll finally be able to get into a particular dress that's hidden away from slimmer days of yore, and BREATHE, or to run a marathon for the whole length. So, for your Tuesday QOTD:…

It does seem like alot of socializing revolve around food. The office birthday cakes, dinners with friends, it's a struggle trying to make a decision. So, if I know I'm going out, I plan my calories for the whole day first, so that I have enough for later. Unfortunately, you've got the food pushers, who sometimes make you…

We are going to ROCK IT!!!!

Oh! I didn't know. Ah well... :)

Thurs QOTD posted by Sakus is this one: What are some roadblocks you face in your journey and how do you counteract those roadblocks?? She's in a flood situation n tried putting it up, but didn't appear I guess. So I got this from her profile. Hope it helps.

Hi folks, my team mate, Sakus had posted the Thursday QOTD on the day, however she's in the middle of a flood situation, and so for some reason it didn't appear on the forum. Luckily, she posted it on her profile. What are some roadblocks you face in your journey and how do you counteract those roadblocks?? A roadblock in…

Hi all! Was looking out for the Thursday question, but haven't seen it. Off to bed now, and have an early flight, so can't access d forum till Friday evening. :S

Wednesday QoTD: Has anyone experienced different treatment by others as you have lost or gained weight? , and if not how do you think our society treats "overweight" people in general ? Well, I haven't lost enough weight to be treated differently at the moment. But when I started putting on, I had alot of people making fun…

Tuesday's QoTD: We've had a lot of questions about food, but what about exercise....what is your favorite type of exercise? Have you tried something new since you've started the weight loss journey? Do you have a routine/schedule that you follow or just do whatever? I was always afraid to run and would give up quickly…

WTG!! We'll lose some a** too. Haha...ok, fine, I'm corny... :P Crunches and sit-ups are my favourite!!!

Everyone did great this week, we just got to get the momentum going...Quite nervous for this mth, as I'll be travelling every week. Definitely determined to meet the challenges, and have planned my workouts in the hotels. Woot! Monday’s QoTD: Name your top pantry staples that you've added to your repertoire since starting…

It's probably water weight, so don't worry too much. Plus, weight fluctuates thru out d day. ;)

Sooooo excited for d results! We'll do ok. I'm just getting d hang of drinking sufficient water, but ok, I'll admit it, this might be impossible to do during d trip, cos I'm squirmish about public toilets in exhibition halls. So since I'll b spending all day at d hall, n unfamiliar with d layout, I would be pacing d water…
