Haha my day off was a bit of a disaster but we got through it! Older boy was violently ill for two days so itmwas a lot of clean up jobs plus monitoring a high fever :-( He is ok now and I am looking forward to taking him out for and adventuremtomorrow just the two of us :-)

Wow, thank you so much .

I definitely like the idea of including the boys in activity and combining that activity.... Could be done with swimming... Walking... Going to the park... Even those giant indoor playgrounds where mums and dads can get in there and play with their little ones! Thanks everyone, am feeling so much more inspired and…

With trying to find a positive in today, I think bubby is very near crawling so that is exciting! It is so sad how much the parents are losing out on and how littlemthey seem to care. I took the older boy whale watching on Saturday... I make the effort to have an adventure just us two every weekend (have been having him…

Thanks so much for your feedback. At the moment the "temporary" status is weighed on a weekly basis... So far six weeks have passed. I have taken three days off work this week to catch a breath and try to regain some composure. First day off today didn't turn out quite as planned haha. Has planned to go lie on the beach…

Really comes down to how YOU feel in it... If you feel good, you will look good. If you feel self-conscious then that will show too. My very first reaction to seeing the pictures was "Lol you're worried about THAT? There's nothing wrong with it!" your hard work is obviously paying off, especially with your waist. You look…

Far out that is soooo inspiring!!! Thank you!! How did you get past the bad days? What were some things that really worked for you? Congrats, awesome AWESOME effort!!

I know the feeling well, it can be such a lonely and at times even a discouraging journey. 33 pounds is an awesome achievement already so be proud of that!! Feel free to add me, we can all do with some extra motivation and encouragement!! Keep it up, slow and steady wins the race :-)

What a fantastic topic to discuss! Love some of the ideas listed here already!! I try and set small goals with a reward at the end of each one and my goals are not always weight based. At the moment I have a chart up on my fridge and once I have successfully completed and marked off twenty hour-long workouts, I am going to…

You are awesome, that post just made my day and absolutely gave me what I desperately needed to hear. Thank you xoxo

Thank you :-) It is way more encouraging to hve others to talk to and hear feedback from. I love this site! So many amzing people on here too.

Ok cool, thanks for the tip! I usually weigh myself every second Sunday first thing in the morning, but I forgot to on Sunday so did it tonight. Such a bummer!

Wow that is an amzing effort! Such an inspiration to me and no doubt plenty of others too!! Thank you for sharing, keep up the hard work, you are looking fantastic!

Awesome job losing 12kg!! I hope you have celebrated this huge achievement with a new dress or a massage or something you would enjoy :-) It's pretty normal to plateu during weightloss, keep being consistent and maybe change around your exercise routine to give you a boost. You'll notice the weight start to drop again…

@suessfan I love your goals, they are very similar to my own too!! Good on you, look forward to hearing about your celebrations at each milestone :-)

For reaching my final goal I am going to sky dive. I have always said it is something I would never do, and for years now I have felt as though I'll never lose this weight... So seems like a double victory to overcome two things in style :-)

@kikeyy love your eyes and your hair, very naturally pretty! Congrats on achieving your goal fod January too!! 9 :-)

Thanks guys!! I hope you both find it really helpful too - hearing other people's journey's and stories is a huge motivation!! And when we have our victories, nice to celebrate with others too!! :-)
