Along with eating better I am being more active and working out at least 3x times a week. I walk, play wii fit (sooo fun), elliptical & bike. I feel much better and healthier!

Congrats SuSana.

I was doing weight classes for a couple of months and they've just cancelled all the classes which is annoying. I can't do any of the others because of my foot, so I'm kind of down about that.

I still need to lose 10kg, but i really dunno how to approach it at the moment, I suffer from social anxiety so leaving the house is so hard. I can't really eliminate much from my diet because i really struggle with eating. Things were looking up for that but my dad likes to constantly critise what I eat and my weight, so it just makes me not wanna eat (I suffer from depression too). I've gained about 15kg from my medications and they make losing weight so hard.

I'm starting to give up on trying to lose weight =(

Don't give up, just do it slowly. If you don't want to leave the house try doing exercises with stuff you have in your house. Maybe lift a sack of potatoes, do you have any workout DVD's? I heard the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred is hard!

My sister & I found a walking/biking trail nearby so we decided to try it out today. We walked for an hour so that was my exercise for the day, then afterwards we went and got an ice cream cone lol. It was still a good walk though!

Good Luck it is the hardest addiction IMO to give up...I too was a Coke Addict.....But you just have to go cold turkey...I used to drink at least 3-4 cans a day....sad but true!! Drink lots of Water with flavor packs in it...it will give you the sweet taste ...Going staright water did not work for me...I need to taste something good....But I have been soda free for about 6 months

True...Soda in general is bad for you.....Diet or Regular...Yes regular has more sugar and calories...But they are equally unhealthy drinks

To ease my mind, I have been looking up articles on the internet about how sodas are bad for you...Wonder how long it will take before these intense cravings subside!


Hey girl! I used to be SERIOUSLY addicted to coke too. You just have to stick it out. The first week or two are the hardest. I pretty much only drink water now and I honestly don't miss coke. I tried drinking one a couple of months ago and it didn't really taste right & just wasn't as satisfying as it used to be. Stick with it, pretty soon you will lose the taste for it.
