Lose Weight 36

In order to complete the 29 hours challenge by the time I go on holiday on the 25th, I calculated I will have to do 1 hour 10 mins every day :eek:
I was doing fine until yesterday when I only did 35 minutes, so today I have done an epic 1 hour 45 mins on my exercise bike in order to catch up again...I am aching more than I have for a long time but I'm determined to complete it in time.
On the downside, my appetite is huge so I don't think all the hard work will translate to any weight loss unless I can get that under control too...0 -
4 mile run tonight - sore legs now! I'm going to call it 1 hour as it took me 45 mins to run, 5 min walk for warm up, 5 min walk for cool down and some much needed stretches when I got home. Hoping I don't ache too much tomorrow. Like Debrac all this exercise is causing an increase in appetite so weight loss is not really happening but at least I feel fitter and more toned!0

15 mins weeding then I fell over so gave up.

+2lb gain for me this week, although I did go away for a long weekend with my family and drank lots of wine and went out for a fair few meals. Being good now though.
Fredsnail can you put me down for the 5lb challange please, which means I'll now have to lose 7lb!
I will try for 29 hours exercise but not sure how well I will do finding time ti fit it all in!

Hi fredsnail, can you add 8 hours 10 minutes cycling for the challenge please?
Unfortunately as predicted, my weight has STS0 -
Wow Debrac - that's a lot of cycling!!
I have 1 and a half hours to add - walked 2 miles into town last night and another 4 mile run tonight, managed it without stopping for the FIRST TIME EVER - woop!! Have also done a few toning exercises.
Weight was a STS for me, was hoping for a small loss but did overindulge at the weekend! nevermind.0 -
Hi,
Weight today is - 2lbs. Don't know how I managed that as it was a "chaotic" week. Anyway, so will try for the 5lb monthly challenge and just potter along with my usual exercise activities/dietary efforts. Not long I feel now, before things get tougher health wise due to less sunny and warm weather?0 -
