Lose Weight 18

Hi everyone, thanks for all the advice r.e the running pains, I think the problem is the 'way' I run. I tend to run on my toes instead of heel to toe (if you know what I mean)?? I tried to concentrate on my technique yesterday and it didn't hurt as much, but I will take it easy!
BB - running on the seafront, you MUST be joking, i joined the gym at a brighton hotel it's only £27 a month and it's got a swimming pool and jacuzzi etc so I think it's a bargain!
Well done everyone on all the losses, i'm struggling already this week for some reason, can't seem to stop putting naughty things in my mouth!! Really want my first stone for next week so i'll have to reign myself in!!mumoftwins well done great first week loss:jGoal weight....lighter than when I started0 -
just thought id say hi and im in the same boat as everyone else and am currently losing weight
used to be 13.5 stone at my peak and was a gym rat going 5 times a week and was in great shape but as these things happen i got with my ex and let myself go and never really recovered to the tune of 20 stone. as of 2 weeks ago i stopped drinking altogether, changed my diet drastically and started back mma training and going to the gym. to be honest
im finding losing weight very easy as i have done it before and at the gym i know what works for me.
just thought id say, stick to it people it will be worth the hard workComp Wins 12: Etnies Beanie, Royal Stafford Cheese plate,

In regards to the meet, am i the only one thinking the bank holiday isnt such a good idea? heh. Im thinking of traffic, public transport ect. Its always a busy one isnt it. Going to a SPA is a fab idea, you can talk inbetween the treatments, in the sauna or the pool or the jacquizi! yummy stuff. I would love to go but it depends on the date/location ect.
You could be right about traffic/transport over the BH w/e - maybe because of all the traffic problems we have down here it's always on our mind and particularly worse on 'holidays'.
Anyway, will pm Bails, but will depend on date/location too - we also have a summer holiday to fit it - first one in years :j

I started doing that!! But stopped myself. My intructor said if you have the incline on 1.0 it's alot gentler on your feet/ankles. It's so much easier for me to run on 1.0, than on the flat.Debt Free as of 17/01/2009 Turtle Power!!

Good point about the bank holiday weekend vixarooni I'd only suggested it cos a lot of us office workers have an extra day off that weekend and it wouldn't cut into my annual leave.
Bails - I'll pm you my e-mail address as I'm still interested so long as it's around the summer time.
It looks like my household budget is going to be put under sever pressure over the next little while. I was unloading the washing machine last night and discovered a wire missing from one of my bras - unfortunately OH can't retrieve it from the drum so I'm hoping to get someone out to have a look and see if they can get it out or cross our fingers and hope that the machine won't explode or break down until I get past the end of march at the earliest.Goal for 09: Get fit and foxy. target weight 11st. 5/80.Get out of dead end job and work for career I always wanted.0 -
Ok i got a bit of lose weight withdrawl!
No im not proposing to matt! Although he may get a bit scaredI would do it actually, but i want the romance of being asked by him. Infact i want both, i wanna ask him, but i wanna be asked too. I'll have to ask him, dump him, get back together and then him ask me
I packed the suitcase, brolly included! Isnt bizarre that i get just excited about going to brighton as i did paris or benidorm. (yea bit of a weird mix of destinations!)
With the meet, i would only be able to do a sunday or a day in the week because i work every sat. Although do it on a sat if no one else can make it any other day, i will just have to come another time when were all even lighter!
(now im going)
ha. Bye!0 -
Morning everyone,
Going to brave the gym today for the first time for nearly 2 years:eek: Got it in mind to use the treadmill for a while then maybe do some weights then a swim, sauna and jacuzzi to round off!!
Hope you all have a good day :AChristians Against Poverty - www.capuk.org0
