fluffybishop, that is great going!! Hope you mind me asking - are you fitting all this around work?

I work part time from home tara, so it does make it easier for me

I lost another 1lb today, so only 5 more to go for the rest of the month. I think that's do-able.

Evening everyone, had a pants day yesterday. I was doing so well - did loads of exercise, ate really healthily and then went and spoilt it all by scoffing a load of maltessers and crisps while i was watching lost:o. For some reason i thought i'd punish myself this morn and get on the scales to see what damage i'd done and somehow i was half a pound lighter:D, would probably of been more if i hadn't had my blow out last night but i'm happy with that. I've been fairly good today - didnt plan too well and let OH make lunch so he made pizza baguettes. They were lovely but dread to think how many cals were in them.

Today...
B - porridge
L - pizza baguette
T - HM chilli
Ex - 10000steps, 30mins on wii fit

Hiya to the newcomers too
And well done to everyone thats lost this week:T

I did another 30 minutes of the wii fit last night and boy are my legs feeling it! Still doing well with my calorie intake but I am finding it difficult to find low calerie family meals or meals that I can adapt slightly for me. I hate cooking different meals!

I have gained 3lb. Not entirely sure how. In addition to riding lesson / hacking my other horse out, I met my Dad on sunday and did a 8mile walk. Along footpaths that took us over ploughed fields etc - so not easy going!!
I did have quite a lot of crisps and wine over the weekend though ....

It frustrating - I am pretty good during the week, it all goes out the window at weekends!

Weigh in this morning, have lost a 1lb which is better then nothing! Thought I actually put weight on this week, so losing 1lb is better then expected! That's 3lb this month, only 4 to go! :j

Morning all - what a bunch of losers on here! Great going guys - keep it up.

Had quite a mixed day yesterday - toast and banana for brekkie, jacket potato with chicken and salad for lunch - very filling and sat with me for ages afterwards. Then i went and did it - joined the gym ladies!!

Ladies session today an thursday with a creche so just getting ready to leave in a few minutes. Felt really good just by finally joining - hubby has a few days off work later this week (to redecorate the bedrooom!) and so he can have the kids in the evening so i can try all the different classes every night and see what I like! Wahey! I've joined the council gym and and only tied into a membership for 3 months @ £30 a month which includes all classes, gym, swimming at all venues in the city - PLUS I got a passport to leisure card using my student ID so it means my kids can get discounts on training programmes too, football, swimming etc. Hoepfully i will stick with it longer than three months, but from an MSe point of view it was better than a 12 month deal!

Only thing is TOTM coming up any day so need to try really hard not to use that as an excuse to not go. Also went to the library yesterday - haven't been for ages and it was sooo nice just to get some books and read in bed last night rather than watching TV. methinks i need to do it more, forgot how relaxing it was.....

Have a great day all! x

TARA - cannot believe your excercise log! absolutely brilliant - don't know how you fit it all in, but keep it up hun.

Well, I've lost 1lb this week so I'm quite pleased. I'm going to step up the exercise routine though as I'm getting impatient and want this weight shifted pronto!!!!!

Morning all!!


Plzhelpmesave - good luck!! And well done for joining!! :T I always think it's a wee bit daunting joining a gym for the first time, even if it's just because you haven't been for a while! But I'm sure you'll feel the effects really quickly - so it'll all be worth it!!

Well done to all the losers!! :j :T I'm gonna hold off on weighing myself 'til next Monday (last weighed in on Thursday, at 10 stone 4 lbs!) - purely since I didn't really stick to it over the weekend - plus, aunt flow came a visiting yesterday - and since she's always a massive pain the first day or 2 that she's here, I was like a burst balloon all day yesterday and wasn't really interested in very much - so forgot to jump on the scales! :rolleyes:


Sorry I've not been around much recently, I started a new job at the weekend, so means as well as working 9-5 mon-fri in my normal job, I'm doing 9-6 both days at the weekend, plus 5.30-10pm on Mon/Tue nights as well. Not quite sure how I'm gonna find the time/energy for much exercising - but there's always Wed/Thu/Fri nights I suppose!

As for this weekend, I think I was still in holiday mode, since my eating was all over the place! I'd actually got prepared for healthy lunches to take with me, but didn't bother in the end, because I figured it was maybe a bit anti-social in the first day of a new job, and I didn't wanna exclude myself if the other newbies were going out for lunch or whatever!

Anyway - the most I've managed is running up and down the 4 flights of stairs on the (many, many!!) breaks they insisted on us having over the weekend. I'd love to say that it was driven purely by trying to stay fit, but it was actually more because we couldn't all fit in the lift at once, so since we're a bunch of overgrown kids - we were racing to see who would make it to the top/bottom first! Pleased to say we actually won most of the time - although I couldn't really speak much when I got to the top after that!

Hope you all have a good Tuesday!!
