  • Haven't done any 'serious' exercise today, have done a lot of house work, so haven't sat on my butt all day
  • I haven't done any either...but i did sit on my butt all day, my work has been mostly pc based today!!

    Better make more of an effort tomorrow...I slept in this morning so i will have to set the alarm a bit earlier tomorrow!!
  • got my serious exercise head on at the moment - been again tonight... I will get into the 12 stone range!

    I was reading on another forum that if you exercise in the morning before you eat anything apparently it contributes to burning off 30% more fat... I shall give it go in a couple of weeks

    Right off for a shower - sorry about the smell girls!!!

    I've read that too yo-yo! It's supposed to be the best time to exercise as your refreshed from sleep and gives your system a good old kick start, especially when you follow it with (a shower!!) a good breakfast. Suppose to set you up for the day!! I have been doing it like ths for 3 weeks now (bar the odd abstinance!!) and it's working!

    Have done some housework today that worked me up into a sweat, i plan to walk for 20 mins today also!
  • way to go Tulip Fairy!!!! Excellent start to the day I have postponed my start as I intend to walk to work which is 4 miles we have a shower at work and I will take my breakfast with me (I usually do). I haven't started it yet as I'm still on p/t hours and I would have to catch public transport home which is iffy at the best of times so I'm driving at the moment w/c 21 I think that's when I've geared myself up for it!

    Just walked the dog on our 5 mile trek we usually do that one a couple of times a week - it's turned into a lovely afternoon here.

    Gym again tonight

    Oh boy am I tired

    What a brilliant tip I am going to try that too.

    Well I have just come back from a spinning session at the gym. It is my first in a couple of years so I am already aching
    It feels good though. Not sure I'll feel like that in the morning.

    I am planning an hour long walk in the morning and another tomorrow evening. Complete with baby weight (buggy and baby).

    Well done everyone
  • spinning?????
    I just had to ask....what is spinning?? Obviously something to do with exercise & the gym but what??????

    I did my 20 mins walk yesterday but you put me to shame Yo-Yo Dee...4 MILES!!! that's brilliant same with you Missy_moomoo an hour is great too!

    I am really pushed for time at the moment, although it should ease off in a week or two, so will be able to do a little bit more then!
  • spinning missy moo moo well done - it's something I can't do because of my knees.... TF it's exercising on a bike very cardio good fun if you can do it.

    Gym again today - missed yesterday even tho' I took the dog his long walk I missed going the gym. I'm now into my next phase up the tempo a bit

    Ok here's what I've doen this week

    Tues morning - 30 minutes areobics vid
    lunchtime - 1.5 mile walk

    Wed morning - 2 mile walk
    lunchtime - 1 mile stroll
    evening - swim with Sean, did serious 10 lengths

    Thursday - ached like ****, stayed in bed in the morning

    Today I am going to walk into Stirling at lunchtime and am swimming tonight.

    Have heard about the exercise in the morning thing before, it does work. This morning on the TV one of the weight lsos tips was 15 minutes of making love in the morning is better than 30 minutes work out in the afternoon
  • I think I'll pass on the last tip

    I will definatly bear that in mind!!! instead of my morning 10 mins workout, i'll stay in bed for 15 mins extra!!
    Shame hubby has gone away for the weekend!!! LOL

    Missy_moomoo, aerobics on a bike??????????? oh Please, you put us to shame!!!!! way 2 go girl!!
  • Hi Girls,

    I've just read the whole thread and i'm inspired so much so that i'm gonna head upstairs and get on my treadmill..something i have'nt done for weeks well, i have'nt been able to anyway due to the fact that i've been on holiday in England for the past 5 weeks but i'm psyched now (thanks to you) and i'm ready to shift some blubber again.
  • All this talk of Alcohol abstainance (or lack of it) and i'm VERY GUILTY too made me think that perhaps we should limit ourselves to ONE drink per day? I was thinking something along the lines of this :-
  • Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, I wanna glass like that.

    Walked 1,5 miles on Friday lunchtime and swam 40 lengths (1 KM) on Friday night. Was going to cycle to the library yesterday but I had too many books in my rucksack wouldn't have made it to the end of the driveway so had the day off exercise yesterday.

    Today will either be swimming with the kids, how long they play on the flumes depends how much exercise I get or an aerobics video later on.

    The choice as they say is all mine, but I will be doing something
  • Oh Cat90, that picture is so brilliant!!!
