posted by bronwyncarlisle on Fri, 2009-02-20 06:45
Anyone who started the challenge late, or who wishes to continue after week 5, can put their week's wrapup here.
I'll keep posting weekly wrapups for as long as there is a demand.

This week I'm proud to say I continued my five bentos. Just. I've been having a very sooky week amongst my moving boxes and too much stuff. But now I'm determined to get back into the swing of things and eat better - because I really felt the lack of vegetables in the bento this week!
I contioued on making my bentos. But forgott to take pictures as I'm fokusing on studying for the last exam of this semester comming up next tuesday. Wish me luck!
Good luck!
I also made all five bentos this week. This one actually looked nice! Most of my bentos taste nice, but presentation is something I really have to work on. Well, I don't have to seeing as it's only me who eats them, but I'd like to. Friday's lunch was an experiment that didn't quite work, but was yummy anyway.
I hadn't lost any weight at my Monday weigh-in, but that's OK. I seem to have got into a pattern of losing a lot one week and none the next. My total over the five weeks of the challenge was 2.7 kg, which is quite respectable for a person who only needs to lose 6 kg. Although I'd be happier losing 10, but we'll see what happens.
