Argh!!! I hate the TOM - so discouraging! Then again I am being naughty for weighing myself so its my punishment haha!

On the plus side, having PCOS, since Ive started losing weight (was 112kg before!!! But only started Cohens at 77kg) I am much more regular! So once again....shouldnt complain...sigh....

Thanks!!
Its funny how often you focus on what you have to lose and not how much you have lost! I think its time to put on my fat pants and give myself some credit. I really need to think how stoked my fat self would be if she new she was going to weigh 74kgs! lol...."Hey fat self, good job!"

Well done on getting through the first week. I struggled a bit but now it seems so easy. Still struggling on the water, its such a constant. Sometimes I have to count all my numerous cups of peppermint tea - I know you're not meant to but I really dont see why not?

I have also become a bit of a supplement freak! I take sooo many throughout the day Im sure I end up peeing it all out haha! I take Blackmores hair skin and nails, one fish oil, 2 multi's (coz of TOM), calcium and magnesium, cromium, zinc and Imedeen. Maybe Im overdosing? Im not sure now...........

On the plus side I have discovered the miracle of coconut oil. I have some pretty nasty saggy skin going on so I have started dry brushing and applying coconut oil all over twice a day. Its been 3 days and gosh its made a difference! I would highly recommend starting it before you lose the weight, i wish I had. It makes your skin so soft and plump that the stretch marks are smooth and much less yucky!

Not really looking forward to the weigh in tom ;-( Its coming off so slowly. But I like the food so im not too bothered. And it really helps not having cravings etc.

Good luck for your weigh in!! Now, where's my water?????

Happy travels

Huzzah - success!

19/10 - 74.4
25/10 - 72.9 (-1.5kg) Woooohooooo! Thats alot for me this late in the game!

Good luck everyone!

PS Dry brushing is when you take a natural bristle brush and basically brush your skin like....a horse? It increases the circulation to your skin so the blood goes and repairs collagen etc. Here's a good website: Its a bit tedious but well worth it.

Is it too late to join?

I only started Cohens on the 20/10 but am looking for some good results before Christmas...

Also, just a quick question to all of you... what is considered a reasonable amount to lose each week? I know they say some can lose 10kgs in the first month, but is that supposed to happen every month? Is it reasonable to think you can drop over 2kgs each week. (only asking because every other "diet/program" I have done they say between 0.5-1kg per week).

Anyway, would love to join this little challange if it is still open for newbies!!!
