I know, I know! Gah, so excited about it! 2 more kg to go and I will be there! I honestly have to credit this board and all of the wonderful people here for a lot of my motivation, I had the urge to snack the other night but I got online and read some posts and wrote some stuff, and got over it. Yay!

A race, huh? (Thinks : If I cut off my leg, I would instantly lose a lot of weight and would win! Ha ha!)

That's pretty cool though, kind of nice to find people in the same situation with the same sort of goals.

Actually, I might keep my leg, I like walking too much. I plan on walking to and from work every day this week, which will be around 65k (40 miles). I also need to start doing some upper body training this week, I think I've lost some muscle mass. If only weight training was as pleasant as walking!
 
Im easy my hubby has both; it will probably be another 6 months before we get it here though. Oh well it will give me something to look forward to. Congratulations on your weight loss so far your doing terrific.
 
I've been doing push ups like all get out! I'm over half way to where I used to be when I was in the army (aprox 64 pushups in 2 minutes) I'm up to about 40-45. I'm excited...and so is the missus ;p I've been building muscle mass like you wouldn't believe. Pushups, situps, the whole nine! I try to do about 10 extra throught my day.... whenever I have a moment alone when I'm at work. BTW..I updated the pictures I posted if you wanted to go take a look
 
Tomble...you're doing fabulous :D:D:D

Thanks for stopping by my diary..... :D

Good luck on your quest for Yourself Fitness! Once I get a little better I am going to give it a try. It's really cool!

Hope you had a great weekend!

Wow, I need to get into more of that sort of thing, but I have a really hard time doing exercises at home. I'd better make more of an effort!

How long were you in the army for?

I'll check out the photos, too. Oh, and I'm in flashchat! It's the first time I've seen anyone in there, so stop by if you read this :)

Thanks! I think I may have to buy it from the U.S., it seems to be completely unknown here.

The weekend was lovely. Ate a bit too much last night but other than that, it all went well :)
 
would you be getting it for the PC or for a gaming console? I'm looking at getting a Nintendo Wii just for the pure exercise that comes along with it! Have you seen any videos on youtube of people playing it? Insanely innovative!

Probably for the PC, but maybe PS2. The Wii does look pretty cool, though I am doing so little computer gaming these days that I could never justify it.

Hey, I'm in flashchat right now!
 
Walked home from work, had a shower, tried the scales... 104.5 kg! (229lb). Will it hold until tomorrow morning? I hope so! I'm so close to my first major goal - 102.5 kg, which was my lowest in years. I achieved that back in early 2004 before it all messed up and I put the weight back on.

I'm utterly determined to crack 100kg (220lb) before the end of the year. I will be walking to and from work every day this week! Agh, I just want the weight GONE GONE GONE.

Going to do some crunches now, then bed! SaturdaySaint inspired me to get on the floor and do some pushups / situps.
 
ARGH!!! You got me again! LOL... I got on the scale this mornin and I'm at 231.5lbs which is awesome....but dangit man... that's what I was hopin for! You have one up'd me again young skywalker! No..but seriously... congrats man! Passed the 230's which is awesome! I can't wait to get there man..and surpass it! I just don't have much time in the day.. walking to work would be interesting enough though.... hmmmm...may need to see if theres a way for me to fit it into my schedule!

Don't worry, I spoke to soon! Weigh-in this morning reports 105kg (231lb). That's dinner and a few large glasses of water weighing me down! Maybe tomorrow I'll get there. Good work on your weight, it's such a buzz to get on the scales and realise that so much fat has gone!

Do you have enough footpaths and/or walking tracks to get you there safely?
 
Hmmmm... yeah... actually...I really do have the path to work...all the way to be honest. Hmmmm *my mind starts working overtime*

/weird to think you've been sleeping this whole time!
 
It is amazing at how much weight is just GONE!

My daughter asked me a few days ago...
"Mom, where EXACTLY has all your old fat gone?"

Gotta love that kid ;)
 
She's 10 and along with Bob, my biggest supporter.
She can't wait for me to get to my goal so we can go shopping and buy me new clothes :)

That is wonderful! If we could hit a button and get all that weight back, just for 30 seconds, I think we'd be shocked at the difference. It must be a real help to get the support of your kids :)
