Hey everyone in the west. I haven't been on this site for ages. Last year when I had a plateau, I did the challenge and seemed to get the ball rolling. That was back in November and I had a goal to reach 25-30 kg for my six month anniversary. Made the lower end of that and with Xmas and the holidays, I did not put on any weight but neither did I shift it....yes you guessed it...plateau
Had to get over the spate of birthdays the family has in January/ Early Feb but started the 4 day challenge on Tuesday 5th Feb. Got on the scales today and am down 2.8 kg. God Ketosis works for me... Although I haven't been doing 3 meals...I do 2 and some protein and allowed veg for dinner. Works in better for the me with the family. |

Hi all - Finally, kids back at school and things back to semi-normality. But now I find out that the 2 days off a week I have co-incide with my eldests early finish days at TAFE - AAAAGGGGGHHHH - I just can;t win.
My job is rapidly coming to am end, the construction project is supposed to be handed over by Feb 15th - but can't see that happening. I have been applying for other part time jobs and have had a couple of interviews, so fingers crossed I get one of the permanent p/t ones I have interviewed for.
Vikki - I will do the challenge, but as I don't have scales..... you know I will just have to rely on the knowledge it is doing me good.
I always thought that the calorie to kilo thing was 2.2kj to 1 cal.
Brian - LOVE your Jokes
Can't wait to catch up with you all - feel like it has been forever since I saw you all - so much so I can't remember if it was Melbourne Cup or Sharon's Pink Ribbon Day, either way - too long.
Hubby is back to Singapore in a couple of weeks - has his visa sorted now, so no problems, has to wait till end of March before he can sit the citizenship test tho - ho hum.
Have a great day all

B,
Joke = LOL...and I also like the fact that your TOTDs lately are about succeeding.
We certainly need them going into a 4 Day Opti Challenge!
Great to hear from you Chris...and good to hear of your NSV!
So when are you up next?
Have a great day everyone!

Joke of the Day
A man and his wife are dining at a table in a plush
restaurant, and the husband keeps staring at a drunken lady
swigging her gin as she sits alone at a nearby table.
The wife asks, "Do you know her?"
"Yes," sighs the husband. "She's my ex-wife. She took to
drinking right after we divorced seven years ago, and I hear
she hasn't been sober since."
"My goodness!" says the wife. "Who would think a person
could go on celebrating that long?" |

As this was posted late last night and slipped away quickly to the second pg due to the hight activity on the board last night LOL! I thought I'd re-
post it
Who is interested in a 4 Day Optifast Challenge?
I've had a few say they would like to do one and I must admit knowing that someone else is going thru it with me certainly keeps me on the straight and narrow.
So go out and purchase your shakes and get set for Monday.
Starting Monday morning 11th with a shake and finishing on Thursday 14th. You can splash out on Thursday night if going out for Valentine's Dinner. I will be having a champas! LOL
BTW I only have two Optifast meals when I do the Challenge. You don't have to do three meals BUT if you do it will certainly benefit and for those that haven't done it before the 4 days gets you to the point that if you want to continue it becomes that much easier as you tend to go thru carb ( sugar ) withdrawals in the first 4 days.
Oh yeh before I go...I've been meaning to tell you all to that on the cover of the Australian 'Slimming and Health' magazine this month is a free pocket size 'Food and Fitness diary'. I found writing my meals and everything that past my lips in these diaries, this time last year, helped my get off a major plateau. It makes you accountable for what you are actually putting in your mouth and it has some great tips and recipes. You won't need to count calories but you will be able to see there in black and white what you've ACTUALLY been eating and see where you are over doing it!

Providing Steve feels up to it, we'll do JL. He's not been well at all, actually we've both had an awful stomach bug.
If we do JL I'll aim for 3, if I do more then that's great!

Thanks Marion, that's close to what I understood it to be
360 kj's to 100 calories.
I'm glad we got our share of rain at last, to break the heat.
Have a great day all.

I think it's roughly 4 kilojules to the calorie. 100kj is 24 calories. I usually divide by 4.
