Dani don't know how long you were on Holiday but 3lbs isn't bad at all. It may just be water weight so it will be gone quickly I'm hoping the same for me.
I'm going to make cabbage soup between tonight and tomorrow and hope that helps also like it did before. I just don't think I will be doing the all fruit day this time.
Joy, Ona, Kukkie, Carma, Carol Sue, Caroline (I know I am forgetting a lot of you) I do apologize I hope to see you ALL this month and hope all is well with each of you
I'm thinking of trying out the Walking Away the Pounds exercise videos, anyone here familiar with that? If so, what did you think? I've read some positive stuff about it but don't think I'm ready for anything too intense (but even WATP gets you sweating, I've read).
fairandfree, I did WATP tapes for a bit. They do get you sweating, no doubt but they also get to be boring to me and some days I think because I did get bored I didn't sweat. or maybe because I wasn't into it really I didn't sweat. I will say that my husband and I would walk 3 miles in 48 to 52 minutes on the track which sometimes seemed like it took forever and with Leslie it seems to go really quickly.
Thank you for your response, Rennie I need to at least try it out. I get bored a lot as it is and maybe something that seems "boring" may help keep my interest if it seems easy enough :P
Well first day back to work after a delightful 2 months off. Not going to be so easy as I have been drafted in to take a class where there is no teacher. Lots of unhappy parents and not what I really want to be doing
Oh well positivity wins in the end so going to keep on smiling.
Down another 0.7 so 187.5lbs- Imma chasin you Rennie
fairandfree she starts out slow then she picks it up and I always go back to walking before she does because does knee lifts and after awhile on some tapes I get uncomfortable when she does it too long. I have one that came with a band and something else I can't remember, it's packed away some where. Those are a little more intense. Didn't do that for long
Sam Congrats on the .7 down you got me by .3 YOU TOM is kicking my behind I'll tell you, but we are gonna git'er done as Coondocks use to say
TOM has truly made his appearance. I saw a few lower numbers on the scale this morning but only 187.6 and 187.8 kept appearing so I chose the higher. I have cramps out of this world ... I hope they subside a little because I have to go to work the rest of this week.
Well today was ok. Very active and I thought I'd be able to sneak out for lunch. Na-uh !! was soooooooo busy I didn't get home until 5pm and hadn't eaten a thing My lord ! So had 3 crabsticks, 3 mini beetroots and a glass of wine. Teehee ! Feeling no pain, and have a lovely fish pie to look forward to (make it with cauliflower mash, cod, shrimp and scallops) It is delicious and very low in calories, carbs and fat. Yummy !!
Tomorrow will be interesting for sure- could guarantee a jump up on the scale due to not eating enough. Think could be a rough nights sleep as the parents will be livid that there is no permanent teacher (I do the Learning support for the 200 Anglophone children we have, but have been drafted in as ther is qiuite literally no-one else) Oh well. Positiivity it is.
Rennie- Lets absolutely get 'er done. Aiming for the 170's by mid october
Have a splendid day people.
gossamer I think TOM is the reason I didn't see a drop but I'm grateful for no gain alos
Sam are you the only person that speaks English? and oh my goodness to see the 170's at anytime would make me JUMP for JOY
fairandfree I love pumpkin I made some oat bran muffins yesterday, we only had one egg so they are a little gummy but don't taste bad. I thought about adding pumpkin and I wish I had. So when these are done I will try it again but with two eggs Enjoy your cheesecake
Hey guys! I will be popping in to start tracking and filling this thing in tomorrow, so I'm starting a few days late, but I still wanted to grab a spot on this thread. I have been off the bandwagon all summer, so I want to come back full swing and make September my month to get back on track and lose the weight I've started to put back on these past couple months. My birthday is on the 6th, so I figured it's as good of a time as any. I know there will be lemonade cupcakes there, so maybe coming back now will help me from going overboard on the sweets that day...lol.
