Hello, I am still here *Waving* I have not been blogging much lately but that’s because nothing is going on with my weight loss, or should I say nothing is coming off. I have been kinda stalled now for a few months — losing the odd pound then gaining it back. My motivation levels are [...]

Woo, as I suspected that tiny gain I had came straight back off again — happy days Looks like I am going to be ramping up my working out over the next few weeks too as I have ordered Wii Fit! I have been considering it for a while but finally took the plunge yesterday. [...]

ExtraPounds.com was the first weight loss community that I discovered online about a year and a half ago. I saw a friend mention it on a forum some where and went to check it out and decided to register, this was before I even really knew what a calorie was…never mind how many I was [...]

So a while ago I was searching for some good energy drinks, I admit to being a fan of them – they really help when you know you are going to have an intense workout, or after having had one when all you want to do is crash…but you can’t because you have important things [...]

Back in February I came across a deal that allowed for me to create my own custom greeting card online, for just the cost of postage. I’d already got my other half a Valentines day card and had no birthdays or the like coming up, so wasn’t sure what to do with it. In the [...]

You know, I have being doing this weight loss thing for over a year now, and in that time I have discovered what is the single worst part of it…going to bed hungry. It’s not often I find myself in that position, because I eat enough to fill me up and plan ahead, but some [...]
