thanks for seeing me like that!!!
I really do belive my arms are fat.I want slim arms like the girls in the 2 first photos!Or even like the girl in the last, My sister!
I dont want any fat on them....i want to wave and nothing actually moving....well at leat not a lot moving!
I see photos of myself and feel the need to just cut of the extra fat on the arms.I didnt do that to the photo i put up here though.This is the honest place for me!no lies of photo editing!

Jasper, you are gorgeous, and you are being far too self critical about your arms! They are not enormous at all. Of course they'll get slimmer as you lose weight, but honestly, they are fine!!! Seriously, stop comparing yourself to models. The first photo has been air-brushed within an inch of its life, even that woman in real life doesn't look as great as the woman in the pic. I bet she has HUGE bingo wings really Your sisters arms are really nice, and attainable, and you will get there! Look how far you've come, I bet your arms are already loads slimmer than when you started.
I often grip the flab on my arms from underneath to see what they will look like when they are slimmer from the side. As I am weird like that I wish I had measured them before I lost weight to see how many inches. Heres a picture showing the difference in mine after losing 8kg's. I know they are far from perfect still but they are better. In another 8 kg's they'll be looking loads slimmer. And so will yours!!!!!
And NO MORE BISCUITS!!!! If I'm not allowed them, then neither are you

Heya sweetie.
I totally understand what you mean about feeling better about yourself so a little part of your brain tells you it's ok to eat whatever you want now. I have been there and done that every single time i have lost weight in the past. BUT this time i want to push past that point and actually get to my size 12! And that is what you want to do too. That's why we are here encouraging each other thru the difficult times. Stick with it sweetie, you know you can do this. Everyone has bad days from time to time and you are doing the right thing by coming on here and being honest about how you are feeling. You will get thru this, we will make sure of it. And when i get to that point i want you there shouting at me and giving me a good slap!!!!!
I hate my arms too but i noticed that they are improving with going to the gym. Yours look great but you are not happy with them. 'Google' exercises that could target those parts. It's worth a try.

Rainbow the girl in the first photo is a known singer/acterss/moder/tv person here , and she is gorgeous!I know the photo is fixed but she does look like that...I just want slim arms!!!Your arms are a lot slimmer that the first,thats a huge difference for just 8 kg!
I Swear i will not have another biscuits at least till im down to 79 kg...oh thats a huge promise i just made....
tete i havent measured.I said i was then forgot all about it.PLUS i get different numbers.I never remember EXACTLY where i measure and little up or little down there a difference....Plus i dont know about measuring the bust,is that done wearing a bra????
Katiehotbun!!!!i know i am going to tone,i must say that i am scared of lifting even light weights cause of things i have heard of getting bulge....many say its not the case but i am still scared...What if>>>???i would look terrible.I had in my mind getting into the 70's to start that.What do u think?
Thanks icanseetomorow for stoping by , ihope you have little succeses!!!it wont be very long if you really made your mind in doing this!
So after i said i m not going to eat cause of those silly biscuits i did stick to it and got through the day but i was starving at dinner.I know i havent gone over my cals,so i couldnt keep feeling like that,i had some cabbage w/rice form yesterday...I didnt enjoy it, it was cold plus i felt guilty.
I am guessing now that those biscuits would be 500 cals?????ok.
and lets say 300 cals that bread thing....and 100 cals oh no 200 cals my 2 coffees... total 1000...
another 500 the dinner...thats 1500...
this is wild guessing though.
Tommorow im having a lovely lunch
Its chicken breasts in oilpapaer(is that th name?) with green and red pepers , onion and cheese.ill skip the cheese though.Anyway i dont have any plus i can go to shop tomorow cause again no car.
So you put the chick in a bowl with the veggies and a little white wine , plus garlic and a spoon of mustard and let it settle for a couple of hours!It smells great.Then you place the chick pieces in the paper(i make 4 ) and tie and cook in the oven!!IT is sooo tasty!!!its fantastic and low cal aswell!!!!Yummy!!!
Well i am green from jealousy!my BFriends (married couple ive spoke about sometimes) bought a treadmill and the company gave them as a gift a power plate!!!1st im jealous cause i want them too 2nd its really unfair cause she is super skinny!and her husband is really lazy doesnt take care of himself and probably never will do...She wrote herself in a gym some months ago to tone and lost 3 kg so she stopped.She went down to 49 kg when she went to the gym....and now they go buy the treadmill?????I WANT IT AND NEED IT....oh how bad is it to be jealous of your very Best friend>>???BAD BAD BAD....

Oh my god, I just said on hotbuns page that maybe our periods are synchronising cos we are all in this together, which is why we are all having fat, depressive feelings. And you have come on! Haha. Maybe I was right lol.
I am envious of your clean freshly mopped house. Noone in this house tidies up after themselves, it was my bfs turn to do the washing up last night and he hasn't, and he is having an afternoon nap. It makes me grumpy in the morning waking up and seeing washing up piled on the side. Arrggghhhh.

Well it seems we are really going through the same stuff arent we????how cool is that?!The bad thing is that im going to have my periods again on the 2nd of September and thats the day we're taking that ship to Crete for the christening....i was soooo looking foward going to the water slides!!!Ill probably call my gynecologist and ask about that pill that makes your period not come for a while....i ll have to see about that.
Well i was cleaning a LOT today.There is this night club that i used to clean from Last october but stopped because i had carpal tunnel(i think thats what its called) so my mother in law took over.Now shes gone for vacation and its me in there again.GOd its so dirty and takes so much effort toget it all done.
I m sure i burn a hell of a lot of calories today.
The chicks in the oven so ill be posting my food today later on.I did have a energy drink at that night club..150 cals...
Well see you later!

Heya sweetie.
I had the same worry about toning my upper body as you and asked at the gym about it. They said that woman have to do lots of heavy weights to bulk up and they showed me what to do. I have got a few dvd's with upper body workouts on and they use 2kg weights (one of them even says you can use small water bottles instead of weights) Have you heard of 'Davina McCall'? She is a TV presenter over here and her work out dvds are really really good. I love them. Ooooh a friend of mine does pole dancing classes to keep fit and her arms are great, no bingo wings in sight!! You could try that, your man would love it
Also i would start now so you tone as they get smaller.

Dont worry about becoming bulky - women dont have enough testosteron for that to happen - unless you take steroids and other crazy stuff. To grow muscle you need to eat above maintenance level and kick ass with heavy weights. As your still focused on losing weight you have nothing to worry about. Go for it, weight training is good fun - I love it.

Hi Jasper,
Sorry I haven't been around in awhile- that will be rectified!
Re bulkiness, it's pretty much impossible to bulk up while in a calorie deficit, which you should be if you're losing weight, and it's very very hard for women to bulk up. So you don't need to worry about that at all. Remember I was doing weights? (I'll be going back to it) I found that I had a nice shape that was revealing itself as the fat was coming off.
