The watch needs to be still on your person. You will see how some o Biggest loser have it looped around their shoulder strap. As far as I know anyway it has to be on your person, but I could be wrong. Ok so will test it out for you later when I have my walk.

Hi, you have planned out a very healthy day. I'm no expert, but maybe for your snacks another piece of fruit, or a biscuit. Maybe whatever you are craving for, to fill that gap in soul as well as calories. I know this is getting back to you a bit late so I wonder what you chose to have.

Now a shopping I will go. Don't mind the shopping, lots of fresh vegies on todays list, I just really dislike the unpacking when I get home. Oh well. On the positive, its not raining, it's a lovely sunny day. Easy shopping day. I have had 4 good days in a row now to make it 5. Taking it one day at a time and building a…

This is the place for loads of motivation and encouragement. The ladies on here are amazing, their exercise plans and daily activites are very inspiring. When in a slump read back on some of the posts.

Hang in there. One of our ladies here is in a wheelchair at the moment, post operation and is doing loads of upper body work. So maybe you could do something like that. Or use the time in a positive way and research healthy foods, write up a menu plan. Don't not eat. It will not help you to heal, in fact there are foods…

Another good day that's 3 in a row. Tomorrow will be the real test. It's my weakness day. I go into the city to work. I do a shift at a dance studio reception with my daughter. That part is great. But there is a cafe there and the staff like to bring us a treat. I am going to take a container to put it in for later. I…

My daughter and i both have issues with this. Doesn't help that there are 4 speciality chocolate shops on the doostep of her unit. I visit her weekly, so very tempted. My daughter is a dancer (skinny) and also works at a gym she tries to eat healthy all the time. But the chocolate craving each night gets her, one of the…

Barbiecat – you are an inspiring leader, my goal is to be as active as you. Sandi – great attitude, you will be awesome by your 53rd Joy – this is a chatting bunch. Love it. Whizzywig – hope your kitten heals well Judy- hi, you know it took me a long time to work out what this onderland everyone was talking about on here ,…

All the best to you. It may seem extreme to some but its your choice and it seems you have everything in place to do it the healthiest you can. I have been on this journey for a long time now, slow and steady is my game but boy i admit I would like it to be fast and fantiastic in a flash. I'm 52 so I guess I will stick to…

I'm pleased with the start I have made already for May. Its 2.30pm here onTuesday May 1. I have accomplished so much today if nothing more gets none I'm happy. Finally oiled the timber garden seat, which i have been saying I must do for I don't know how long. Got new battery for pedometer, can walk again :laugh: Took gold…

Still has a breath left in it. Have been way off track lately. Trying to lose the gained kgs. How maddening. If I had stayed on track i could have been close to goal instead I still have 25kgs minimum to get rid of. Oh well all a learning process. gggrrrr sick of this lesson.

A nice sunny Sunday here in Sydney, but cold. Winter is fast approaching. My mum has been up and made herself eggs on toast. How she got down my heavy cast iron pan I don't know. How I didn't hear her I don't know. She was up at 4am and couldn't get back to sleep. She also loves to read, and has a zillion books. So she is…

I have a lot of posts to catch up on and will read them later but for now I wanted to share my night with you all. A night of cards and chocolate with my 81yo mum, something we do not do often enough but is a favorite time together. Worth every extra calorie. Some moments will not last forever and must be enjoyed. Soon it…

I also wear my HRM when gardening and it is quite often a huge calorie burn, once you start digging and trimming etc its amazing.

:heart: Love reading. Now I have added Joanna Carl books to my list. Does anyone else have a few books on the go at once. I have at least 4 beside my bed that I am part way through. I enjoy the Georgette Heyers, and she wrote so many that I will never run out. romance and detective series. I also like Janet Evanovitch's…

:heart: Yvonne, my heart goes out to you. Losing pets are so hard and you have had hardest. I would curl up under a blanket and be with my sorrow. I believe you need time to do this and its good for you. :smile: Mary, a sewing day sounds perfect to me. What a lovely idea. :tongue: Laura, like you I’m struggling with my…

:heart: Thanks Barbie for some sage advice. Live in the moment and will also start our gratitude diaries. Up early well actually I didn't sleep. but now I can catch the earlier train into the city (1 hr trip) and join my husband and daughter for ANZAC day. They are attending the dawn service. Sissy my family and hubbys…

Not dealing well with this and could do with some advice. My daughter,only child, is a dancer. Has her dream audition coming up in mid July. Has just last week, upped her level of training, to give her the best chance of reaching her dream. However she hurt her foot but she didn't think it was too bad and kept trying to…

Arthritis what a a pain. Nice idea with the fleecey wrap. We are just coming into winter. But my arthritis acted up in the summer, we had lots of rain though does that effect it? And actually this is the first time I felt it in my knee. I also have it in my chest and hip. Argh. Hip is self diagnosed, next time at doctors…

Tueday and its nice and sunny and I slept in. Damm so have to work extra fast to get everything done while the sun shines. First grocery shop and refill with healthy choices. Down to the bare minimum and thats not good. Must bake Anzac biscuits today. Anzac day here tomorrow and its a must. I like to make my own. I will go…

Sleepless night = tired = mindless snacking = going for a nap to stop eating.

I GOT THE HAPPINESS PROJECT BOOK. SO HAPPY. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: THANKS BARB, SHE IS A FUNNY CAT CAME TO US AS A STRAY KITTEN 12 YEARS AGO. NOT MANY PEOPLE HAVE SEEN HER AS SHE RUNS AND HIDES WHEN PEOPLE VISIT. THEY DONT BELIEVE WE HAVE A CAT. BUT SHE LOVES ME AS YOU CAN SEE. MY MUM AND DAUGHTER ALSO GET SPECIAL…

So much happens while I sleep, posts that is. Thats what happens when in a different time zone. Starting to feel so much better, post pneumonia. Still just walking and trying to do it daily, slow but I'm happy to make a start. Still having trouble keeping calories under control. Hoping I will find my mojo on one of my…

30 min walk this morning feeling good about that. a bit low as i fall off the wagon at the end of each day, today is a new day i will stay on the wagon

I am doing much better health wise, just battling tiredness and my body is sore??? If it is still sore Monday I will go back and see my doctor. I havent done anything to make it sore. I wake up each morning with the best intentions. I have a hundred reasons why I should lose weight. But often its only a few hours later but…

Welcoming in a very wet Wednesday. Torrential rain. Nice if you dont have to go out in it. I had to fast overnight for my diabeties test. I'm expecting good results even though I have had pneumonia. My last test was good and I was able to come off all medications. I always look forward to my breakfast so was happy to get…

Amanda I wish I knew how to make it all better. Might be worth talking to a counsellor or mediator. Perhaps your doctor could suggest someone you can talk too. We are here for you and it's good to share lows as well as highs. If I won lotto I would fly over there hug you and sit with you and hold your hand tight. Have…

I did delete some and regret it. We all deserve a second and even third or fourth chance and this is a tough journey. No harm having them there. I would like to think if I was inactive for a while, my friends would wait for me.

All clear of pneumonia. Slowly breaking back into the exercise. Did 30 min on the treadmill at 4km. Still get very tired but I think that will decrease as i get stronger. But my eating is way off track. Have to tackle that as well. After lunch with the girls tomorrow.:blushing: :flowerforyou: Every time you put your…

DOCTOR REPORT - NO SIGN OF PNEUMONIA ALL CLEAR, JUST HAVE TO SLOWLY BREAK BACK INTO MY EXERCISE. THAT WONT BE HARD AS I GET TIRED VERY EASILY. SHE DIDNT SEEM CONCERNED ABOUT THAT, SO I GUESS MY ENERGY WILL PICK UP AS I GET STRONGER. :flowerforyou: THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR WELL WISHES. :laugh: anitasongs - I like pausing…
