Well, I may have forgotten until I was in the shower wondering what date it was, but it's my birthday today! 32 yo, and as of last Saturday, I'm a happy non-smoker! I attended Allen Carr's EasyWay to Stop Smoking, and I already feel better - not sure if it's all in my mind, but don't care either!!

This week, I lost 600g, down to 94kg (total loss since Dec 1 = 11.6kg).

I've lost 600-700g for the last 6 weeks, which is getting annoying. Yes, I know it's in the recommended range, but I'm working so hard, I expect more! I've bought a HR monitor, so once that arrives I can't wait to increase my workout intensity and see what changes I get. I do notice it's hard to get my HR up on the treadmill now, even with slow jogging.

Well done Jenn, and hope everyone else has a good week's weigh in!

Well done thats awesome! you lost 800g the first week so that was more than 700g - and you and one other person has lost every week! so thats pretty good! just from this challenge your 2.7 kilos less in the first month! make sure you keep focusing on all these positives and youll get there before too long! it wont happen over night though! you will reap all the benifits though so keep focussed and keep moving, let us know how you go with the heart monitor too!

take care and good luck next week! if you think you can do it, aim for 1 kilo next week and get that heart rate pumping for the week and cut something extra out to see if your body rewards you for the change! just an idea!! good luck!
