Am feeling motivated for March. Tara, are you doing the Between the Bridges run on Sun? On the Westlink - it's the official opening and the only time in your life that you will get the opportunity to do so. Go on, sign up for it!!
Have been out running this evening - managed 4.99 miles according to Map my Run - my furthest yet!! Lucky I did cos I stuffed my face with a pack of McCoys earlier.
Breakfast was porridge with s sk milk and sprinkling of sugar. 1 slice toast with Low Low.
Mid morning was Muller Light with grapes.
Lunch was low fat cheese and ham sarnie and McCoys!
Dinner was 1/2 bowl of my delicous hm lentil soup and 2 slices of bread and butter. I say 1/2 bowl cos I was eating it out of the pot before I went for my run and then when I came back was not hungary - now of course I am hungary but it just seems too late to eat now.
Anyhoo, keep up the good work everyone and hopefully March will see us all being a bunch of losers!0 -
studentmidwife, well done, wow!!! Any tips you can share?
Leothecat, are you in Belfast? I had heard about that run but didn't realise it was this weekend. How long is it? Are you doing it?
Cinema was good, we had no snacks (v. proud) but I had 4 oatcakes when I came back, oops! But we walked there and back so about 50 minutes in addition to the hour I did earlier.Get to 119lbs! 1/2/09: 135.6lbs 1/5/11: 145.8lbs 30/3/13 150lbs 22/2/14 137lbs 2/6/14 128lbs 29/8/14 124lbs 2/6/17 126lbs

Hii all,
zzzlazydaisy... can you count me in again ( can't remember if i already asked - although did update my siggy for march challenge a couple of day's ago! )
Decided that i am going to change my weigh in day to friday, just because i tend to eat more at the weekend, so if i do, it gives me more time to get it off for the weigh in (if that makes sense!!LOL!!).
Total loss for feb 12lb's which is fantastic!!
Really looking forward to the march challenge!
Good luck everyone!:money::money::money::money:
I love to save money0 -

I have never been a great one for large amounts of food - not even when I had a very active job (doctors at that time were worried cos I was underweight - can't win can I :rotfl:), um the only exercise I can do now involves Dr Dragon, a bed and ..... well I don't think I need to go any further
:D - a shattered ankle, broken pelvis and broken breast bone do not lend themselves to me being a gym bunny any more! (oh by the way I was never one of the lycra clad, mirror gazers - more a "get off that machine I want to use it!" bunny - think the vicious bunny from Monty Python and the Holy Grail!)
Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

Well done poshstock - fantastic loss! :j Pls share any tips!
Dragon - can't believe how much you eat - or don't eat!
Studentmidwife - are you in brum?? I'm sure we met in Boots last year over the mirrors and no7 glitch at the fort! Fantastic loss - bet you're looking gorgeous! I need to lose about the same - pls tell us all how you've done it....
Me...... haven't got a clue what's going on with me at since the weekend! Since blooming pizza hut on sunday, feel like i'm eating loads and feeling bloated and fat :mad: Not eating any snacks but have been had "normal" main meals yesterday and sunday, i.e. curry and chappattis, cauliflower cheese grills etc. Last week,i would have laughed in the face of such food...
Did 40 mins again on Wii fit yesterday and its told me i've GAINED 3lb and weigh 13stone 8lbs since Saturday and BMI gone back up to 31.something... was down to 30.83. Very disillusioning as i'm still eating much better than i was pre Feb and that's a big blooming gain so more to get off now :mad:
Couldn't go swimming yesterday as the pool was full by the time i got there :eek: ...people queue up early to get tickets to the ladies only sessions so well annoyed as i have been trying to go for the past couple of weeks.
Am gonna have a good food day today as i'm going to work and already packed my grapes and yoghurt to take with me and will have a jacket with that darn cottage cheese for lunch ...... followed by chicken or salmon with grilled veg tonite - only fruit as snack...
Going to the Size Down class tomorrow morning so will see that they say and try to eat accordingly ..
Hope no one else is getting fatter!0 -
Hi everyone and thanks for the congrats,
I'm following WW and I'm finding it really works for me. I've been on it for nearly 5 months now which is the longest I've ever stayed on a diet. I think the reason its working is because I track everything that passes my lips which has made me a lot more aware of what I'm eating. When I look back I can't believe the amount of calories I used to get through in a day - its no wonder I was so big!!
I've also started exercising and am in training for the Race for Life in June!
plzhelpmesave! - I do live in Brum but don't go to the Fort. It was probably one of my friends though. What colour hair did she have?
Good luck for this month everyone.
