    Lyndsey's Calorie Counting, Exercise and Hardwork Diary

    You are not the only one. I feel like I have been off the rails for the best part of a week :( Don't know what has been wrong with me at all, not even been jogging since last weds, scared of getting on the scales (will for weekly weigh in on Friday), just need to get back on track. x

    Weigh in day and 14" 12 boo, think my hormones are all over the place and feel very bloated and tired :( It is hard that the weight seem to have stalled (and gone backwards) when I have been trying hard. However, today is the first day of another week on the journey and my plan is to carry on...

    Xena's Last 10 Pounds...

    That is fab! I am guessing because you are exercising more, you have improved how much lean muscle tissue you have, so although you are heavier on the scales you are actually in better shape overall :) I have felt tons better too since I started thinking of the bigger picture. I think for me...

    Yesterday was a very good day. I went out for a jog and did my best time yet round my 2.8km route (23 min 20) so 31 secs off my best time, with average pace of 8"24 per km. Def, getting fitter now. Had a low calories day yesterday with a lot of fruit and chicken (1180 food - 239 exercise =...

    I'm just back from a weekend away and this morning have weighed in at 15"0.5 LOL. I didn't calorie count for Sat and Sun but still a 4lb gain seems high, eek. I did drink Friday (two 175ml glasses) and Saturday (two 175ml, and 1 250ml glasses of wines), plus ate more carbs than usual. So I...

    Well done on not gaining if it hasn't been the best of weeks. Please just get started again, remember how far you have come already. Also, I reckon the next stone will really show in terms of your clothes, so will be well worth it! :) xx

    Wow, can't believe I haven't updated in four days. Thankfully it is not because I have gone off piste but just because of being busy. I weighed in on Friday at 14" 12, so a lose of two pounds, yay! I have done lots more jogging (went out each day weds to sat) and had a gym induction on Friday...

    LOL, house cleaning must be another form of procrastination when you aren't able to eat :) At least your bathroom is sparkling! Glad to hear you are starting to feel prepared for the exam, just think it will all over soon. x

    Yay for the weight loss and being chatted up! I am really excited about getting weighed for the first time on Friday. I am only working to a 1lb a week target but with the jogging, I am hoping it might stretch to 1.5lb but I will have to wait and see x

    [/COLOR] Oh no, poor you that isn't nice. If it makes you feel any better I think some kids are just like that come what may. I reckon most people who would see you would think, good for her for being out there working hard :) Are you going to go back out again? It would be a shame for you to...

    Yay, well done you! I have to say your food from yesterday looks amazing :) I keep weighing daily too lol. I am exactly the same today as yesterday. What are you revising for? I always find it horrendous to avoid eating when doing activities like revising. Think it is a procrastination thing x

    Turning dreams into reality

    Yes, I am going to eat the exercise calories back as I am guessing you need good nutrition for your muscles to repair etc but I am not going to worry too much if I don't eat them all. I think the main thing is not to eat less than 1200 kcals per day. Actually tracking the calories through my...

    Turning dreams into reality

    I have come to a decision, the plan is to work to 1,610 kcals per day, which would equate to 1lb per week weight loss. Then to do 30 minutes exercise at least 3 times per week. If I do any better than that any one week, it will be a bonus. I have done really well this week for exercise, as have...

    Turning dreams into reality

    Hi everybody, and welcome to my diary. Today, I stood in front of a full-length mirror and took the time to take a real look at me. This may sound a bit strange because surely that isn't anything unusual? Yet, for me it was. For as many years as I can remember, I have always tended to avoid...
