you leave him you really dont need a man like that honey 

Aw no hun! I'm having an off week too! But That's really not nice of him!! My biggest critic is myself, you just gotta push past it! I've added you as a buddy, would love to help you through your challenge! :) stay strong! 

Thanks for the support guys.. 

first - 10 km is daunting, till you do it! trust me, it's the best feeling to finish! good luck and take it easy if you haven't been training too much. Second - your "bf" clearly doensn't understand what weightloss is about. A year ago I never thought I'd be 90 odd kg. and by dec i WILL be 85! keep at it and keep positive - you doing it for only one person! yourself!  

Tomorrow is the big Walk day. Ate a lot of wrong stuff today but managed to stay with in my allowed daily limit . bead is my downfall, I'm trying really really hard to avoid it but its still my comfort food I turn to when I'm down. Will let u guys know how it the walk goes tomorrow.  

Liza - if you had bread today, that's a good thing. You need to carbo load for a 10km, even if you are trying to loose weight. Go get it girl! 

I hope today went well Liza. I hope you were able to show that 'boyfriend' of yours that you are indeed worth it. That you are indeed capable of doing something against the grain. That you are indeed able to live life for the purpose it was meant to be lived. If you eat too much bread, the better approach would be to try and get a low carb bread mix, such as Atkins, or something similar. While you can incorporate carbs into your diet, if they are your downfall, I say it is safer to eliminate them all together to have that temptation taken away from you. It will take a week or so, and it should be gone.  

Hi everyone, I'm so proud of myself I did it! 10km in 1.15min can't believe it was actually so enjoyable. Must say my two friends that walked with me really encorraged me and it was just afantastic feeling to compete something I thought I could never do. Thanks Inn from tomorrow I think I'm actually going to try and follow the Atkins diet. I was thinking of doing the fit for life diet but I'm not a huge fan of the normal fruits like apples, bananas and pears. I'm more in to the exotic stuff and they are horrible expensive at this stage as they not really in season . tomorrow I will be sticking to my 4km walk every week night. Today was a great day.  

Holy cow Liza! well done! you did a 10km walk in 1:15? That's some awesome going! Have you got map my walk on your phone?awesome little app! 

No don't going to download it now on my phone, thanks  

You're awesome. Tell your boyfriend to take a fat hike!!! 

Thanks everyone for all the positive words. So encouraging 

Ahhhhhhhh whats his number lol -I could give him a fat smack right now.. YOU PROVE TO HIM NOW that you can do it and ITS NOT A WASTE OF TIME...  

How do you eat an elephant?One piece at a time.One gram at a time.Just show him,show him that he is wrong.If I could,so can you.And the feeling of proving him wrong is just so damn fantastic!!
