	Sorry quite hard to put the whole title in the subject! Just got a quick poll for those that are trying, have lost, or want to lose weight. How much (if any) have you lost all up so far? How long has it taken you to lose that much if any)? How much have you got to go (if any)? Who set your goal weight? Did/are you giving yourself rewards along the way? Why do you want to lose weight? What are/were/will you doing to lose the weight?

	I've only just started but will love a good poll! How much (if any) have you lost all up so far? As of today, 2.9kg How long has it taken you to lose that much if any)? 2 weeks How much have you got to go (if any)? 9.5kg Who set your goal weight? Me Did/are you giving yourself rewards along the way? No, I don't have the money to reward myself with "gifts" and I think that food rewards don't really work for me! As for new clothes when I reach my goal weight......they are all in a suitcase under the spare bed!!! Why do you want to lose weight? I'm not happy with the way my body is at the moment. I took the "eating for two" way too far!!! I would like to get back down the size I was before I had Cooper. And after a few attempts over the past 10 months, I feel as though I'm in the right head space now. oh, and I'm off to Rarotonga in 2 months! What are/were/will you doing to lose the weight? I'm doing WW with a friend for support. I'm also enjoying going out walking every other day.

	How much (if any) have you lost all up so far? N/A How long has it taken you to lose that much if any)? N/A How much have you got to go (if any)? 9.5kg Who set your goal weight? I did, I want to be the weight I was before I fell pregnant with Cooper Did/are you giving yourself rewards along the way? Start day was today, so I'll see how I go. I don't think so, maybe when I reach my goal. Why do you want to lose weight? This is the biggest I have ever been, and I hate it. If I could I'd go back to the weight I was when I fell pregnant with Nyah, it's achievable but it would take longer. What are/were/will you doing to lose the weight? Im following an eating plan on another website.

Almost a year How much have you got to go (if any)? about 3-4 to my inital goal weight. But I'd love to loose another 3kg on top of that Who set your goal weight? I had a goal weight set by WW but it was far too tiny, I would never want to be the goal weight they set. So I've set my own. Did/are you giving yourself rewards along the way?

Self confidence, to fit my clothes again and hopefully less stress on my back with my next pregnancy What are/were/will you doing to lose the weight? A combo of things. I try and watch what I eat most of the time. Like not eat too much junk and watching my portions a bit. Most of mine has been through exercise though.

I have 6 kilos to go. but we'll see! id quite happily start putting on weight if we have a baby... :P Who set your goal weight? I set it after looking at my BMI and and what point i feel healthy. 69kgs is my goal Did/are you giving yourself rewards along the way? Nope not really.. Mainly cos i see what im doing as a lifestyle change and cant really reward that.. Why do you want to lose weight? TO feel healthy. What are/were/will you doing to lose the weight? I have been watching what i eat and trying to be healthier in my food choices., This i find pretty easy as alot of the bad foods out there also affect my blood sugars so I tend to stay clear! What i find hard is the excersise portion I also go to the gym, thought i havnt been solidly, for awhile, but am hoping to start gettting back into it without it affecting my blood sugars.
