  • Hello,
    Its come over all grey here :(

    B Yoghurt and muffin
    L Mackrill on toast
    D will be Jacket pot, chicken, sweetcorn and mushrooms.

    Snacks apple and carrots

    Got to zumba this morning. (I love play dates)

    Smile make them wonder
  • Hiya, all!! Its sunny and cloudy here....not sure what its doing up there...
    B- porridge, grated apple and seeds.
    L- sweet potato and ginger frittata.
    T- sweet and sour pork, brown rice. pear and strawberry crumble.
    S- (maybe a banana, or pkt of crisps if Im hungry).
    exercise- 1hr dog walking.

    Im finding it really hard to get motivated to exercise properly TBH.:( Ive got plenty of exercise DVDs but I never seem all that motivated to put them on. Also worrying about what I will weigh at the end of the month. I did great my first month but then really fat people usually lose loads at first...
    Still, must persevere!!:D
  • Sorry for being quiet lately. I have totally fallen off the wagon and it's all because of this stupid foot!

    Not being able to exercise is making me quite down, and when I'm down, I want to eat. So I've eaten loads of haribo this week and some chocolate too and I feel crap for it.

    I know if I could just get back to the gym it would give me the motivation I need but I don't think i'll be able to for a couple of weeks otherwise my foot will never heal.

    Hope everyone else is having a better week. xxx

    Ello!!! glad to see everyone doing well with there plans for the day

    I on the otherhand feel like a complete failure!!!! good all day till about 3:30pm at work and i have 1 sneaky choc from the rosies tin which then turned into 10.....but no i couldnt just stop there!! I went to my mums to pick up the kids and i end up having not 1 but 3 slices of birthday cake.

    Hi all.

    (hugs) to those who don't feel they're doing so well. I know the feeling, it is so hard to keep at it day after day.

    Lauzt, I hope your foot feels better soon.

    My plans for the day have gone awry, too. I ended up having fast food for lunch, it was that or go hungry. My 'lower cal' option was around 800 cals. :eek: I crowned that by having three pieces of fudge when I got home, then I didn't have time to go for my walk. :(

    Now I'm trying hard to avoid my usual ''I've blown it, may as well give up'' mentality. Breaking that habit would be a great achievement. :o

  • Hello all,

    I've been following the thread but never seem to have time to post. Things are quite hectic at home and work. Everything has ground to a rather blissful halt as we begin our half term holidays. I'll still be working just around the beach/park trips and bike rides. I've scheduled a lazy day today as my children are exhausted and need to switch off for a few hours :D

    Reporting in with a loss of 1 1/2lb

    Quite pleased with that :T hope everyone is having a great week.

  • A disappointing STS for me.

    This is the point I find really disheartening, I've kept to my calorie count all week, I went over by 100 calories one day but I'd walked for 2 hours that day. This is now two weeks of STS, last week had been TOTM so wasn't a surprise but in the last two weeks I've dropped over 9000 calories in total and lost nothing.

    I need to force myself to keep going with this :(

    Keep plodding on my friends x

    Im not declaring again but am still on a down wards trajectory so hopefully I will have a loss next week - must admit to feeling a bit dejected but at least it is going in the right direction:eek:

    Good luck x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
  • You and me both, Piglet. I also have a STS to declare...I haven't had any exercise for 2 weekends now due to feeling poorly, and that clearly has an impact. But so does eating just that little bit more than I need toand I know I've been doing that now and again.

    Hoping to get out for a long walk on Sunday, and I'll be very annoyed with myself if I allow myself to sink into my normal weekend mentality of "I deserve a treat"...why does my treat have to be food or alcohol? :mad:

    ...because I like it....is the answer :o

    Help!

    Good luck to everyone else for the WIs.
