Goodmorning everyone!! Cryss you have got all them down pat quite a funny read thanx. I couldnt resist weighing in and today im 91.5kgand tomorrow is my first week of restarting so thats 4.3kg in 6 days im so happy. I want to make my xmas goal to be 85kg so thats 6.5kg in 3 weeks. We are all having such great weightloss so lets stay on track. I bought the ketostix for $11.95 yesterday and my results were faible so that was good. Michelle you have a 2.5 yr old does he do the tantrum thing? How did the exam results go? You did really well eating your tomato and feta when you were out the other night. Maybe Cryss or Moni could help you fix your ticker and photo up in your signiture panel, Im still looking for a close up photo to put up. Joysey how are you going? That tea is working well I think it makes a difference like you said. Had prawns last night and my O.H. told me to boil them as it makes them softer well they were still crunchy maybe I didnt boil them long enough anyway it was good for a change had my first omlette in ages for brekky too and it was nice,I might have my pizzas for brekky every second day cos of the cheese. Well off to do some housework and see what miss Kasey is up to. Talk soon, be good. Chez

Tomorrow marks a week of sticky to this 100% am not looking forward to xmas day I dont want to be surrounded by all this bad food, Ive written myself a reminder in my phone to not eat anything bad on xmas day,I want to be finished this by the end of summer. How ya going Casey todays day 1 isnt it hang in there cos the first few days can be tough but by then it will get easier.

Hey All

Ive just finished watching the final show of Biggest Loser - How amazing was everyone's weight loss, especially Matt!! He looks like a completely different person. I've followed this show like a ritual from start to end and I found it just so inspirational......... Ladies - if they can do it, SO CAN WE!!

Best of luck with eating on the weekend. I go for my 2nd blood test tomorrow morning, and 4th wk of weight loss and measurements to follow...(I've drunk close to 5L of water today, I feel like I could pop! I've just been pissing all day!! ........hehe)
 
Hey Everyone.. Just discovered this has a chat room!!!!! If we all make a time to get on, we can all chat together..

If you look up the top, you will see a tab called vBChat... We can go in there....

Lets make a time!

Hi everyone,

Happy belated birthday Moni - you have given yourself a very nice birthday present. Keep up the good work.

Just finished watching the Biggest Loser and didn't they all look fantastic. Completely different people in looks and the confidence and self esteem they had was very inspiring. Can't wait for the Australian show to start in February. The same trainers are coming to do the Aussie show.

I'm ready to chat anytime. It would be great.

Healthymum: did you get the bad storms this afternoon? Very wild and windy. Driving home was horrible.

To everyone, have a good weekend and keep up the good work. :D
 
Mel, good to hear about the 5 litres. Your bladder does settle down and you will lose weight more quickly for it.

You will do fine for the blood test... Mine showed a deviation but I had broken. Can you get into the chat room mel?

Myshy. You need to put this and it should work for you.

Hi everyone. How good did everyone look on the biggest loser! It made me feel very inspired.

Cryss, thanks for a good laugh! I really needed that.

Happy Birthday Moni. Enjoy shopping for your new wardrobe. It is the BEST feeling!

Kaseysmum, 4.4kg in 6 days is huge! Sounds like you're right on track to hit your goal for xmas.

Mel, good luck with your weigh in tomorrow.

Casey, well done on getting through your first day. Once you've finished your first week, you'll probably find you'll be in a routine and it gets easier every day.

Myshy, hope all went well with your exams. There's nothing more stressful than waiting for the results.

My refeed is going well. Tonight, I had my first glass of wine in 5 months! I loved it (although I did feel myself getting a little tipsy!). I was also going to have my first white coffee, but I didn't want to overdo it one night, so I'm going to have it tomorrow. I was also able to have 40gm of lamb tonight in addition to my "old" protein, so I had a lamb and chicken stirfry. Tomorrow, I'm allowed to start adding 50gms of carbs, ie. potato, rice, pasta, peas, corn. It's quite exciting, but also very scary. I'm always worried what the scales are going to say each morning, although so far, so good. We're getting a Border Collie puppy on Sunday and I've got a week's holiday next week to settle her in so I'm going to Curves and join. I'm really looking forward to starting this next phase of my life exercising and just trying to settle into a healthy lifestyle.

Have a great weekend everyone and stay focused. :D
 
IMR - good to hear you are doing well on the refeed.

I love boarder collies, but they need alot of exercise cause they are working dogs.. you will be getting heaps of exercise.
 
Chatting - Mel and I have an idea!

Hey, we have tried the vBchat thing and it doesn't seem to work.

SOOOOOOO .... if we all go to a site called

Tucows.com and download a program called Mirc, install, give yourself a nickname and hit connect and typw /join #Cohen we will all be there.

just email me if you get stuck cryss1@bigpond.com
 
IMR, don't you feel worried eating Potatoes and Corn and stuff.

Are you scared byt these foods now?
 
Goodmorning all,today marks one week on plan for me with a 4.6kg loss so im am not weighing til next Saturday now ive had my buzz with the scales.
Wasnt Pete off the biggest loser a stick the boys really transformed themselves eh and of course the girls looked fabulous that Shannon looked gorgeous. I too cant wait to watch the Aussie version shall be a good watch. I notice a few of us have msn messenger for those who want to chat lets make a time and do it.
Im going to have lunch with Kim on Monday so were having our first cohens morning cant wait, the support for this journey is awesome I think if I had a forum like this last time i may not of come off track,its so nice and encouraging to talk to so many lovely people on here doing this diet.
Well I better go and start my day,
STAY STRONG EVERYONE AND DONT LOSE SIGHT OF YOUR GOALS. Talk soon Chez:)
 
Hi everyone, and great to read that everyone is going so well.
Thanks for the help with the ticker, I think it is going to work.
I have a little tip for everyone. I have been on the diet for 61 days now and of course it has slowed right down. My personal goal was to hit the 60's by 1st December, but it didn't happen so I will be there 5 days late.
Now, if you weight has slowed down, 1, stop eating the crisp breads and 2 have fish for the full 3 meals, you will loose between 500g & 600g per day. I have only done it for the last 2 days so I can't say how long that rapid loss will go on for but it really moved the scales and now I feel so motivated to see that magical 6 appear.
THE BIGGEST LOOSER. I'm am just so addicted to that show, I didn't even know it was on last night and finished work at 8.30 and thought I had better get dinner and there is was. My God, I just can not believe the changes in those people. If would have to be the biggest incentive for anyone wanting to loose weight. Suzi just looks like a model now, I just couldn't believe the transformation. Can't wait until the new show starts in Feb, it will be great.
Well I hope you all have a great weekend and get through any festive engagements you have, just remember to try and be good.
Best wishes to all. JOY:eek:
PS. I AM IN MELBOURNE, IF ANYONE WANTS TO CATCH (CRYSS) AND ANYONE ELSE, LETS DO SO, IT WOULD BE GREAT TO MEET YOU AND HAVE SOMEONE WHO CARES TO CHAT TO......MY EMAIL IS joy@finer.com.au​

I saved a free IRC chat program to my web server, so any who wants to join us can. Go to the following link in your web browser and then you will get prompt to download a file called Icechat.



Kim, your pic is showing up in your profile, but to get your pic showing up on your posts, you need to select to 'Edit Avatar' from your 'User CP', and then put in the following link; (ps. I've uploaded it on my web server for you)



If anyone else needs help with their Avatar, let me know..

Hi Everyone,
Well exam results are in. I PASSED!

I loved watching the biggest loser finals. They all looked fantastic! How inspirational were they!

I am down to 64kg on my scales. I have swapped my evening meal from crumbed chicken & Saled to chicken and cauliflower soup. 2 kg loss since I started that so I think I may stick to a soup option at least once a day. As Joy suggested I have dropped my crisbreads and now really only have one if I am tempted to eat something else. Some days I have 3, others just one, but I think it does make a difference.

I am interested in the tea everyone seems to be drinking - does it taste awful though? I have a really weak stomach so if it smells funny I won't be able to drink it. (Wimpy)

What are we going to use to chat? I have messenger but not the other stuff. Once you have it figured, please let me know! I think it would be fantastic to have a live chat.

I have the same problem as Healthmum and my pic. On my profile it is listed, but doesn't show up when I post. (After telling the file upload had failed, guess what,,the pic loaded anyway) grr

Thanks for the tip on the ticker...I'll go get a new one right now!

Have a great weekend everyone - and lets drink to our health (with water that is!)

Hi everyone. Made myself my first latte in 5 months this morning and it was fabulous - even though it was really only a half latte!

Cryss, I am extremely worried about reintroducing the carbs back into my diet. Tonight I'm having 50gm cooked pasta with my salad so we'll see what the scales say tomorrow.

I'm off to see Pete Murray tonight at A Day On the Green - should be great. Have a good weekend everyone.
