:laugh: Soooooo true!!!!

I am 5'0.5" My start weight was 133lbs current weight 116lbs and goal weight 105lbs (dependant, I may stop at 110lbs if I look too gawnt but I'm very active and gym a lot so pretty muscular)

SOooooooo true, believe me, we are more than aware of our wobbly bits - unless she brings it up, you are walking into some seriously dangerous territory! Keep schtm!

I wake up several times through the night too, I do lots of exercise and am always so so tired I expect that I'll be dead to the world! Depending on what shift I'm on, I'll usually try and be in bed by 2230ish - but often find after an hour or two I'm awake again then off and on all night :-/ If I'm not working the next…

Weight is most accurate first thing in the morning, usually best after that first morning pee!!!! Don't let a gain dishearten you, I can gain 3-4 lbs over just a couple of naughty days, but then lose it again just as quickly after being extra good.

Fruit & veg, Low fat yogurt, Bowl cereal with skimmed milk, small handful of nuts or trail mix......depends if you've got a sweet or savoury craving hon! Always try having a big glass of water first though, sometimes dehydration can mask itself as hunger

General cardio will give you inch loss all over but you need to target your abs & obliques with crunches, sit ups etc at least 3 times a week. Just go on you tube and type in abdominal exercises for ideas.
