.......When your desk is next to the treat desk and has had cakes and sweets for peoples birthdays solid everyday for the last two weeks and one haven't had one piece (and your boss comments on your restraint!) .......When go on holiday and tell everyone (who asks) what the best option on the menu is calorie wise…

Im so glad i've found people in the same boat, i'm unhappy about how I look, i was until monday over weight on the BMI - now I'm the top end of my healthy range but none of my mate seem majorily supportive.. i get told i don't need to.. or oh is that ALL your eating? your disappear! or i'm told i don't have to work as hard…

I always do Rocket Salad with bacon, Pine nuts and balsamic vinegar - goes down a treat :-)

thanks everyone! Really appreciate your replies :-)

Thanks.. So maybe swap a Zumba for a kettle bell class?...I will have a look at the gym time table - I can do body pump on any day as they are daily

hey! My first official weigh in and i've lost 4lb! i'm chuffed especially as i slid a little over the weekend with eating out with my BF. yeah I find the pasta dishes are a bit odd, but i love the chili and curry! My fav has to be the veg chilli and the salt and vinager popcorn I haven't got risotto but I do have pealla in…

Thanks all! I'm so pleased and the best thing...i didn't even realise it had been that long...and you are talking to the girl that calculated her favourite chocolate bar to the square and would run buy chocolate squares (not cals burned)!!! LOL

well done you!

Thanks Everyone! I'm trying so hard so at the moment the difference means a lot i'm really struggling not to give up! I think I will chose a day and time and use the gym scales (maybe the home ones can be a detterant at the weekends!!)

brilliant Idea!

I Love it! i only did it for 3 weeks for a deal but I lost 9lb - the best thing is you realise very quickly that the day before bikram you should drink 2 litres and sips on the day and you get into the habit of regularly drinking water.. I felt amazing about 20mins after my class and after a week and a half I started…

Found it! www.zumbacalories.com

we have this question a lot :-) theres a website apparently i'm sure someone will post it soon x I burn about 471 cals in 45 mins, i'm 5ft 3 and weight 143

I am giving up...giving up! I am determined to stick to my diet!

hey I used to have this so I did some research! I learnt that a diet coke and vodka is 50 cals... I can normally guess how many i'll have so first thing in the morning I pop them in...if we are going out for dinner that night I get the menu and plan what i'm going to have and pop that in. Once i've done that I work out…

Thanks everyone! i'm really excited at the prospect of getting the hang of food and portions using this and its even more encouraging that you have had such good results! i'm feeling a little peckish now but I haven't got another bit of fruit...trying to stay focused!

I started today!!! I have also signed up for 3 months :-) your first week loss is awesome! hope I do as well!

Well I did the class yesterday wearing my shinny new heart rate monitor and I burnt 477 cals in 43 mins I was shocked i enjoy it so much I didn't think I burnt that much!! 1'm 5"3 and weigh 144 (not sure it that helps!)

oh thats good! I haven't picked any of the shakes either, I thought I would give it a go as it will teach me about portion control, currently I eat faar to much!

Really? Ok I just thought that's heavy for me and I'd put weight lifting in if I did it for 20mins as I sit at a desk for 10 hours a day.... Fair cop! :-) Thanks!

thanks guys

Thanks everyone, unfortunatley needs must to pay the bills, I have noticed weeks where I have a cake order I loose less or not at all and I wondered if it was because I needed more calories but I'll take on board the Tiredness halting weightloss and i'll read those articles! Thanks again!
