Wedding Diet Thread....

I think it's the colder weather that is making it harder as you want more comfort food; or I do anyway. I made a nice healthy vegetable soup last night as that is good and filling and still quite comforting so I am going to try and do that a bit more now the weather is turning.

Why is it so easy to put on weight and so hard to loose it??!! It's just not fair and those irritating people who ay 'its simple just eat less and move more' do not help!!

Trying to be good again but there is toffee and fudge downstairs again as ssomeone got back from holiday last week. Is it ever going to be easy??

its very hard to be good ESP now that winter and Xmas are here soon hate having to worry about food all the time!

It's a horrible thought but I think I will always have a thing about food and all I can do is try to stick to a goodish plan so that I still get treats but am mostly healthy.

Code, (don't know if u want to hear this...) but I read that if you have a cold (no fever etc) working out actually helps. If you have a fever / flu- dont do it!

Think I need to start doing crunches... But hate them! Need to loose 2 inches up top!

Exactly what I need to hear Jo but as I felt like I was going to die on my normal walk to the train station today, I think running on the treadmill is out and strength would knacker my back. I will probably do zumba tonight though.

Em, for me what is annoying, is that when I do manage to lose weight, it comes off everywhere but my tummy, and when it goes on, it goes straight to my tummy. Grrr.

I was considering low carbing for a bit but last time my breath was so Stinky that DH wouldn't kiss me, even after mouthwash.

eww i cant do those low carb things. i love my carbs way too much.. how is your back doing though? when you are better hon.. start your running again. as a push to myself, i have signed me up for the santa run in december. good luck to me.

What's the Santa run?

My back is getting better so thinking Thursday for my first run. Not sure if i'll be able to do the usual 5k though but I'll give it a go if it means my clothes will fit again.

yay code.. thats it.. i have to 'start' running so that is a mission i look forward to. NOT!. the santa run is a charity 6km run and you get to run in a santa outfit! yay! thats why i really did it. hehe.. its for a kids charity so i thought i better sign and that way i have to do somehting and if i dont, then i can die in shame esp if i cant run on the day.

Ugh... My neck is really hurting (kind of head/neck), think I may be coming down with something. :-( also have stomach cramps atm. I know (as we all do) that exercise will actually make them better, but actually doing the exercise seems so bad!! Agh!! I was going to go to the gym tonight as OH is working late....

Rups32

oh no Jo, take it easy as you dont want to hurt it more. have a relaxing bath with some epsom salts and maybe just stretch.. dont go to the gym though. x

Oooh there's one in Edinburgh. I might enter. If you're starting running, I recommend the couch 2 5k program. You can get podcasts and apps to help you along.
