Hi girls! Well this weekend was a success! It was insanely tough given the nature of the weekend. I drove my boyfriend and our friend cross country on Friday and when we stopped for petrol on the way, the guys went to get McDonalds...but I stayed in the car eating my ready-prepared tuna salad :) Then when we landed on…

WEIGH IN Week 0: 156lbs Week 1:155.8lbs 0.2lbs loss but given my situation that I described above, Im happy with that! (Technically going from last Monday (160lbs) its a 4.2lbs loss this week:smile: ) I managed to sneak in a 30minute run this morning in the beautiful sun. Im now off to visit my friend so I probably wont be…

Ok so confession time... Last weekend was utter crap. I ate loads of chocolate, forgot all about my water and had soda for the first time in ages, I had a big heartattack sandwich with mayo and cheese AND I had chinese. Needless to say, I completely let go for just 2 DAYS (Sat & Sun). Monday morning I hopped on the scale…

I agree with you Lindz, I definitely use you guys for motivation to get me to workout and make good food choices. If I even consider being lazy or piggy out then I just think "What would my Flab to Fab girls do?" And I dont want to let you guys down cos that would be embarrassing! So I just get out there and do the right…

Congrats Dani! That's an amazing improvement! AND you were pushing a stroller?! Very impressive indeed! :noway: I bet you feel a million dollars right now!!

Robin!!!!! That's an amazing number! I pushed it to 69 today and I was nearly crying at the end! :laugh: I did the 4 minute challenge again today. Managed to add a few more repetitions on :) Jumping Jacks (Day 1) 65, (Day 2) 72 Mountain Climbers (Day 1) 66, (Day 2) 69 Push ups (Day 1) 28, (Day 2) 34 Sit ups (Day 1) 43,…

Oooh what's Opening Day?! Sounds like great fun! :drinker: Please take loads of pics, I want to see your cute top!!! :)

Im dying to try out this 30 Day Shred that everyone is talking about on here!! I never heard of it before MFP. Might do some DVD purchasing soon!! :happy:

Thanks! Im running 3-4 days during the week so I had no problem running the mile itself but Ive never timed myself doing it. Was actually surprised with that time even though I did push myself to go faster than I normally do for the first mile of my run. I wonder if I'll get any quicker than that at the end of this…

4 minute challenge...I agree with Dani, MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS = DEATH!!!! Ok here are my numbers: Jumping jacks 65 Mountain Climbers 66 Push ups 28 Sit ups 43 And for my timed run, I ran one mile in 8min 47sec :happy: Not a bad day for me today. Although its 8.30pm and Im still well under most of my categories in my food diary…

Hi Ladies! Didn't do well this weekend...as usual! Whenever Im hanging out with my boyfriend and his friends I just totally lose the run of myself and I cant help it :cry: Im safe in the comfort of my own home where Ive only bought healthy food and that's all I can eat during the week. But when I go to his house, I have to…

In college I got a weightloss book kind of like a journal that you could write in and it also gave you tips on how to lose weight. One of the tips it gave for resisting temptation of your favorite food was to imagine it was covered in maggots! At the time I was obsessed with curries and chinese takeaway so it was pretty…

Excellent! Sounds good to me!! haha:laugh: I'll rally the leprechaun's for your arrival!

WOW! Well done you look awesome! And deadly tattoo! :smokin:

Unfortunately I do it everyday, whenever Im in public because Im so self conscious and want to 'appear' as thin as I can when Im around other people!!! Ive joked that I suck it in so much that I technically should have the strongest tummy muscles in the world!!!!:laugh: But as far as relying on it to tone you up... it…

Im currently a Curves member and have been for the last 2 years. Ive lost over 40lbs with them. At my curves there are alot of younger people there who would be early to mid twenties.
