  • It's impossible to know what's going to happen and what the government is going to do, it's just too early to tell at this stage. There's talk of whole suburbs having to be abandoned which is very sad.

    I managed to force myself to go for a walk last night and that made me feel a bit better. Will try to do the same tonight.


  • Still feeling low but the depression is starting to lift which is a relief. Last night I did some exercise. 10 minutes running/5 minutes walking did that twice and then 20 minutes running/10 minutes walking. Feels good to be doing some exercise again so I will try and keep it up.
  • woke up this morning so puffy. I am sure I am retaining fluid. grrr.
  • Going out tonight... haven't eaten much all day. There is 2 hours to go before dinner. I am trying to stop myself from eating the whole packet of rice crackers... yep typing sure stops it! LOL
  • (It's Gen - had an issue with my username so had to pick something else random)

    I passed 40kg lost and kept marching this week - now at 76kg and BMI is at 27. Less than 6kg to go until "normal weight" and BMI <25. I haven't been bothered tracking my calories this week and haven't made it to the gym with all my freaking schoolwork and being on call, but it seems to be going ok.

    Fit into my 11 year old, size 11 jeans (that are smaller than my new size 10s!) that I wore when I was last "thin" - so that felt good. Although I am a whole lot more saggy and jiggly than last time I was in em!

    Went to the gym tonight and ran continuously for 1.5 miles (17 minutes)!!!!!!!! I looked like a tomato for an hour afterwards, but it was very satisfying!!

    Hope everyone had a good weekend.
  • KELLY WYLIE If you are lurking about could you PLEASE contact me ASAP. My mobile phone shat itself and I lost all numbers. Was going to come visit you now the roads have opened up but don't want to risk the drive and find you not home.
  • OMG Gen you are doing so amazingly well you go girl!!

    Good on you Julia - 35 mins running is amazing!! I did half that and I was dying. Heh.

    Well done Julia on the exercise.

    Finally got onto Kel. Amy was a godsend and found her number for me. All is well with her. Was going to drive and see her today but damn review for shoulder had to be done and a back to work plan. grrrrr

  • I am in Bali, having a ball. Paying no attention to what I eat - and I'll pay for that when I get back, but just wanted to pop in and say hello.
  • Hi Ani, glad yr having a great time. I see u never snuck me in yr suitcase
  • Von you skinny little thing - that is great!

    Vanessa, I am jealous. I need time off! I can't believe I couldn't wait to get back when I had all that time off last year.. now I am stressed to the max and need a rest haha! Have a final on Tuesday and NOT ready!! Never said this in my life and meant it, but I truly just want to pass and get this over with!! I am going to get my first B but at this point I don't care too much, just sick of this term.

    Have had the never ending TTOTM this week, so far a week and still going, no idea what is going on there but have had enough of it now thanks mother nature!!

    I am so productive around the house when I need to study - yesterday did all my laundry, went shopping, went for 2 walks, got an oil change and got my car inspection done. All instead of studying! Ugh, I'm an idiot.

    75.7kg today...not much movement this week but given the hormonal issues, I'll take it.
