OB Biggest loser Round 2!

ppl that do WW - how much is a small trim flatwhite. i just guessed off a 250ml of trim milk but the actual points value would be really good. im using WW meals and my flatties points calculator that she left behind but not actually on WW so i cant just look it up.

oh my gosh screw the bikini body. right now my goal is to lose enough to feel comfy. im walking round uni and its roasting after walking up the hill and im wearing a frikin polar fleece cos i dont want to take it off! its good having an intermediate goal though. wont get as discouraged as i would losing 5k and still looking terrible in a bikini. LOL.

even so, i went to the pizza stand and bought a bottle of water! i still am yet to go over my points :D in fact, today i am being really good cos friends are coming over 2nite and brining malaysian so im keeping my points really low so that i can just have a teeny bit of dinner and still be ok. i even genuinly think i wont eat much cos i am crazy motivated. im already down 300g from wed and drunk 2 massive glasses of coke zero last night which normally makes me retain fluid.

I had a smoothie for breakfast this morning and I'm just about to have left over stir fry for lunch.

Went to play on the Wii this morning but the batteries were dead so did pilates instead.

Monikah I could never go to a pizza stand and leave without pizza. I love pizza with all my heart If I want healthy pizza I make it on Turkish naan bread. Way back before we got married I actually lost weight having one of these each night with a salad to top up.

Monikah - Flat white with skim milk - 1 pt or with reduced fat (lite blue i think) - 1.5

Mum just bought round lunch for me - chicken salad sandwich and a jelly fruit cup made with WW jelly - YUM! I will have to make some of those for my sugar cravings

Hi all

I'm starting this OB Biggest Loser with you all

I would ideally like to lose 6.8kg for the 8 weeks.

Um, I never make smoothies. Just dont get around to it I suppose. Might have to make some.

Monikah, you have great will power.

Hi everyone, just a quick tip from me being a diabetic (gestational) and DH is a diabetic. Not trying to lecture anyone just hoping my experience can possibly help others (so feel free to skip over my comment). Smoothies can be the devil in disguise...looking at the post above (Sorry blissful not picking on you) but fruit juice (packed full of fructose) and a banana (HUGE carbs) sounds very healthy but is actually a calorie overload and when (like i had to do) you look at the total kilojoules (and the high glyceamic index) it's not a particularly good weight loss breakfast and can give you a huge spike in sugar levels and make you feel pretty empty half an hour later. A bobby banana (the likkle cute ones) is 30g of carbs and a good size, perfect for a snack between meals.

Sorry if that sounded a bit negative, i just want to see everyone succeed in their weight loss goals

The smoothies work for me. It's when I don't have them I seem to fall off the wagon. I'm not a huge breakfast eater. The banana is usually my main carb of the day so I find that better than toast. For me I find this sets me up well for the day. I don't eat a lot of fruit and won't eat cereals and muesli. For me it's a case of finding something I will eat rather than just skipping breakfast and I've always found the smoothies fill me up really well. I don't drink it too quickly though so maybe that's why.
If I do feel like actually eating something I usually have crumpets with banana and honey.
What suits one person won't suit the next though.

whats the deal with exercise on WW? i did a 5.3km walk today. it isnt long and was more of a stroll but i was wondering if it was worth anything?

ive still managed to stay on my points again all weekend :) pretty stoked. for the first time ever i actually feel like i might get to goal eventually. lol

i dont know :S we walked to the park which is at least 2.5km from home and then back. it was a moderate pace but not pace not not exactly hard and i didnt check how long it took. its all good though. 5km a day is probably pretty normal anyway so im not gonna subtract it from my points. the amount of food im getting on 20 points is more than enough. anyway, time for bed for me. the longer i stay up when i having nothing to do the more i start thinking bout food and ive been so perfect id kick myself

Note to self. never turn 21 the first week of biggest looser.
I did so well at the party last night though. I only had 3 standard glasses of lemonade, and 2 vodka lemonade and limes and i avoided the savouries and only had 1 sandwich, and didnt have much cheese, crackers or cheese balls.
but oh god the jellybeans, they are so addictive and so bad.
and my other meals werent too healthy so im gonna have to do extra this week to burn it all off.

But yay im 21 now - well as of 10.21pm tonight
