1 million kilo challenge has finished, so now I'd like to have a new challenge and I thought I'd post here to see if anyone else wants to join in for support and accountability.

I like to weigh in Wednesday's as I need a bit of a gap from the weekend, so I am starting today and finishing 30 June.

I want to lose 6 kg through exercising 5 or 6 days a week and being careful what i eat. so far I have done well today, boxing class in the morning, piece of toast for brekkie, Greek salad for lunch, homemade pumpkin soup for tea, apple for snack (a tiny bit of Easter egg may also have fallen in my mouth!), drink were tea, coffee and water.

Anyone want to join me, even for some of the time? I'm particularly looking at you, Matt, Holly and Symone!

What kg would you like to lose?
How will you do it?

It's a girl!!!!
Good morning all

I got back from 2 weeks away last night. Hubby has been living here alone, and, well, you can imagine what the place looks like. He's not messy, as such, just grotty. Doesn't wipe stove top and all that other stuff.

Anyway,.... my point is that even though I'll have to go around cleaning up today, I made myself a priority and have just done Level 2 of Ripped in 30 - so I'm proud of myself for putting me first for once.

Just having a "brekkie" of yoghurt, lsa, protein powder and prunes. LOL. Couldn't find any oats to make it a proper meal, so had to add protein powder.

Will be walking up to kinder after lunch then back up to pick him up and the schoool kids.

Symone - How was your brekkie? Anything healthy?

Jimmy Moon - Yeah, I get into back habits of eating sweet stuff after dinner, then I get back into good habits of camomile tea. Wish I could just stay with the good habits.

Seeya, I got a stove top to scrub! LOL.
