  • well I've only lost .5lb, I'm really annoyed as I've been very good and exercised last week for 6 hours, reall cardio stuff as well. I'm beginning to think that all the exercise is not helping so I'm going to cut back a bit on it and see how I do next week

    Well done to everyone who has lost weight or sts.

    Hi everyone,

    Just checking in on the thread for some motivation. After reading all your comments I'm going to go for a walk with the little one in pram in a bit.

    Had a sneaky mid week weigh-in this morning and I'd lost a pound, would like it to be more by Saturday so keep telling myself I'm going to make more effort, just need to do it now.

    Again not done a lot of exercising this week so far, but managed to control the eating a bit better, including not purchasing anymore nutella and resisting the crisps and temptation of all the easter eggs in the shops. You can't seem to go anywhere, unless there is a chocolate egg staring at you, saying :easter_ba 'buy me, you know you want to'. I must admit I have been really tempted, but have been good so far. Hope my will power continues!!!

    I've decided instead to treat myself to something which will last a lot longer than an easter egg, such as a new top, cd or book if I can continue to resist the chocolate, We all need a little treat from time to time. Just a matter of chosing the best option.

    Keep up the good work everyone!!

    We've just had an evening out cancelled too, babysitter let our friends down about an hour ago. Must admit, I'm relieved. I was given tons of chocolate for my birthday and I feel a bit bloated from that :o

    I'll probably be missing my weigh-in this week. All that choc and now it's the TOTM. If I get on the scales this week, I'll probably have a breakdown, lol.

    Managed to get an hour down the gym tonight on the bike 25km tonight. Feel so good. Although I felt so hungry afterwards I did grab a couple of Jaffa cakes :(
    However I consider the rest of my day very good. - Which leads me on to a quick question. What does everyone do for breakfast? I've been enjoying Butter and Marmite on Toast, but not sure how healthy it is.
