Would you like to shed a few extra pounds? The bad news, there is no magical formula that will help you lose the extra weight without doing any work! The good news, GS Health Club is organising a 12-week boot camp to help you achieve your weight loss goals!
Participants will receive daily homework (workout routines for an active lifestyle and diet tips for balanced eating habits) via PMs from PROs like njgal (who has organised very successful boot camps on GS in the past) and LondonsFinest! The deadline for registeration is Sunday, 13th of February and the 12-week programme will initiate from Monday, 14th February!

Hey everyone. I’ve been recording my food and exercise on an online journal. This lets me know how many calories I have taken and burned off, and at the end of the day it tells me my net calories. Here’s a link to my profile, http://www.myfitnesspal.com/hyperzzz45, maybe ya’ll can join this, try it out and we can help support each other. I thought I would never be able to track what I eat, but I’ve been doing it since Monday, and so far so good.
@ BarbieCue, your diet looks good, I would add maybe more fruits. Are you trying to stay under a certain amount of calories?
Breakfast- one Apple
Lunch- sweet and sour chicken with one portion of boiled rice + Vitman C drink
Supper- One piece of bread with lentil
Dinner- sweet rice pudding + a cup of green tea + pear
Nope, I’m not into calorie counting at all. It frustrates me and makes me want to give up. My goal is to eat less processed food, less carbs, less sugar, less oily food, small portions, more raw food etc etc. Keeping it simple, no strict diet. Five fruits a day rule is hard to follow =( But I’ll try to add more.

I took Friday (Day 5) off of monitoring my diet and working out. On days 6 & 7 (the weekend) my timings were pretty messed up so I only had 3 meals which were very similar on both days.

Happy with this first week, I ate much better than I used to and I actually moved my lazy bottom a little bit.
Ate more than I should have.... but I worked out a little bit harder too. :@: I'll behave tomorrow!
