I'm trying to get back on track. After having a few terrible weeks (damn you Easter Eggs!) my weight actually had stayed the same, which is great.
Yesterday (Sunday 26 April) I was 57.5kg and body fat 30.5%. I went to a Body Pump class yesterday - my first one ever. I'm feeling it today but I guess that means it did some good! I want to go to Body Combat tonight.
The Biggest Loser (Australia) finale is tonight - maybe the transformations will encourage me!

ID card photos
Do all photos on ID cards have to make you look horrible?
I know with internet dating there is always the fear that the photo makes the person looks like a supermodel, and when you meet them you think "gee, you looked at a lot better in your photo". So are ID cards meant to work in the opposite way? So someone will look at it, then look at you and say "gee, you look so much better in real life!"
I have one decent ID photo - my driver's licence from 2003. It expired at the start of 2008, but I had the choice to renew it onine and not have to get a new photo. Of course, the last time someone else looked at my licence (my manager from my old job), he said "gee you looked so much younger". Um... thanks. Well, I was younger, and my old job SUCKED MY SOUL AND AGED ME FAR MORE THAN MY THREE YEARS THERE SHOULD HAVE!! (Deep breath and relax!) So I do have the slight fear that I will be stopped one day, asked to show my licence, and have them think it's not me. Although unlikely, since I didn't bring my car with me when I moved insterstate a few months ago so really don't drive anymore.
Anyway, the reason I'm posting this is that I was looking at my new gym ID - (sitting staring at me from my desk mocking me for not using it enough) and I realised I looked deformed. It was a web cam, so maybe that's why, but I think it's because the photo makes me look bald. That or my forehead is just looking insanely big.
Do you think if I lose a lot of weight they will give me a new card as a reward?
