Hi ya Luc xx
Well done so far Ames!Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
Far too slowly though, it's taken me 6 months to get this far, although I've made big changes lately so hopefully will see results soon.
the slower the better they reckon...
you'll know when you're at the right weight for you.... for a while i was striving to get to some silly number but really, this is slim for me, never been this slim in my adult life, so i'm trying this out for size and see how it feels... i am not slim by most people's standards really and BMI is still overweight but that's just a number!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Oooh, you're making me want supernoodles now!
Maz, just seen your sig, you're a real inspiration! I was 17st, now about 16, need to get down to 'between 9st13 and 11st' apparantly, but for my height (5ft8) I think 9st13 is far too low.
Well done on the progress so far Ames :T
I was looking at the BMI thing the other day, mine is currently 22 but apparently I could be 7st10 and still be in the "healthy" range - I think not!

i think you need a run more than you need a workout... remind yourself why you like to run....
I went out last night and i have been coughing like a 50 a day smoker since and was apparently coughing all night... chest is very sore... think i am damaged!
I am running on treadmill.....thought I would treat myself to a swim sauna and a jacuzzi afterwards.....don't really do workouts...:D unless its the rowers....Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

i miss my dad sometimes.... even though he was an old drunk.
i was packing stuff last night and found a picture of me, dad and a celtic manager... that was at the height of my dad's a hero to me phase... even though there was something far wrong then, it's not really normal to let your 10year old daughter wander the streets of glasgow while you get a few pints in before the match is it?I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -

I dunno Maz, I know you are younger than me but to be honest things in 'those days' were more acceptable, some of the things that my parents did to me as a youngster would require a call to social services and a front page of the sun...
My mum invented going on holiday and leaving small child to fend for themselves.....
They both used to send me to the pub across the road for their fags.....across a very very busy road too.....Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

My mother put me in the kitchen sink when I was two and let me play with a milk bottle which broke and stuck into my leg, which had to be surgically removed. Gawd if that happened nowadays I would've been taken away :eek:Too much month, not enough Cash!
