Thank you Glad to be back on the wagon. My digestive system feels so much better already.

:break_diet: I'm back with my tail between my legs. After 18 months of being under 8st9 stone I've not been well for the last 6 months with an ovarian cyst and have spent so much of it in pain I haven't felt like dieting and couldn't exercise. Anyway I got on the scales on Monday and was in...

Oops I need to find the wagon, just glad my classes are keeping me going.

Thankfully my mum's not bad with sw as she was doing it when i was an underweight teenager, but I know what you mean. My problems come when it's 3 weeks down the line and I'm still eating like I'm on holiday.

I think the thing is to keep it to the one week and get straight back on the wagon as soon as possible. Not doing so would be the reason you didn't get to target. Enjoy the week with your parents.

Hope you feel better soon, take it easy, concussion can last a while.

Hope I can get started soon, not spent much time out of bed so far this month. I'm such a pathetic wimp when I'm ill.

Yay, finally got to the shop with the stash...... Disaster averted.

We could cheat and add our times together to give him a run for his money.

In that case I'm popping round on my way home from work. :gimi:

Disaster - haven't seen any hazelnut in the last 3 shops I went to and so have been careful with the last few spoonfuls and then last night dropped the jar and lost the last 3 spoons....... I had to resort to caramel, but it's not the same :-(

As there's 4 weeks in Feb and I do 3 hours of dancing a week I'm going to aim for 16 hours. Babytreetrunk89: 16 hours - 0 hours 0 minutes done Emmie: 18 hours - 0 hours 0 minutes done Tiphareth 16 hours - 0 hours 0 minutes done

Didn't make it to WI today due to work, so I've not made this challenge, try again for Feb.

Ridiculous when I can't lose 5lbs in a month. Good luck for Feb.

Not made Jan's challenge as I'll probably not get to group as I'm working tomorrow, but I'll go for 5lbs again this month as it will take me to the bottom of target range. Acc:4lb **punk*~*star** 7lb dudette2001uk: 7lb KittenKat - 7lb Laurieee - 7bs LianneJane5687 5lb MrsWilsoncroft 4lbs...

I hurt for the first 4 days and I'm expecting to have trouble getting out of bed in the morning, having taken 2 weeks off.

Started again and did L1D1 after being inspired by this thread. For those doing it for the first time, last month I noticed it starting to stop killing me around day 5 so stick with it.

Fell off the wagon for a few days but have been back on for a few days, 19/31 and 8 left to go.

I got to day 3 on level 2 and haven't done anything for the last week. So I'm going to start again if you don't mind me joining in.

Lost my momentum with the 30 day shred and didn't make Thursday dance class, but did make the 2 hour class last night. Trimlee: 12 hrs -8 hrs 25 mins done CraigA: 30 hrs - 29 hrs 22 mins AndreaEK: 10 hrs - 5 hrs 5 mins done *Joanne*: 8 hrs - 3 hrs 30mins done Cherry-Blossom: 15.5 hrs - 2hrs 40...

Slipped up a little on Monday and had 20 syns, although still not over for the week on my syns so not a diaster. 14/31 and we're half way through the month.

Life has been getting in the way of my shred along with sore knees, but should be back at it later today. Amway I went for a 3 hour walk of Sunday and 2 hours of dancing last night. Trimlee: 12 hrs -5 hrs 45 mins done CraigA: 30 hrs - 14 hrs 50 mins AndreaEK: 10 hrs - 3 hrs 35 mins done...

Honk for yesterday day 11

11/31 for yesterday.

10/31 so far for me and we're now over 1/3 through the month with 20 days left to go.

Honk day 10.

9/31 for me today. I've been out and had veggie sushi but I've only had 1.5 syns for the rest of the, so from as far as I can see from the food directory I've had about 9 syns for 6 rolls and 5 nigiri (2 of which we're avocado), if anybody thinks I've underestimated, please let me know.

Honk day 9 as far as I can make out from the food directory.

I wasn't thinking of running the marathon (don't have the time to commit to the training) but as it's the first one in what I now call my home city (even though I've escaped to the country) I'll probably pop along and watch.

7/31 and 1.5lbs lost in the last 4 days.

Honk day 7

Midnight Princess, That's really not fair. Although they do similar things where I work, saying I'm not a "team player" because they all want breakfast and I'm not ordering it. 1.5lbs off for me this week. How's everyone else done today? Has anyone else done the 30 day shred. I started level 2...

Having today as a rest day, I didn't get up early enough this morning and dinner was ready when I walked in from work so didn't get to shred this evening either. :-(

Honk for day 6.

6/31 for me today.

For me chips and supernoodles.

Wish I had the milk left, the one I had yesterday was divine.

Looks like there's several of us weighing in tomorrow. Good luck. I'm looking forward to it for the first time in 3 months.

Honk for yesterday day 5

Can I join in please, I'm needing as many challenges as possible to keep me focused. I'm currently on 5/31 having been 100% from 2nd.

Get the picture. Lol

People are doing well with the losses. Congratulations on getting focused after the excesses. I'm still waiting for my WI on Tuesday.

Great reasons for getting to target and maintaining Kim. Think this is something I need to co.sider for myself as my original reason for the loss was last years mile stone birthday and it's since then that I've been struggling. 1 health - my mum, dad and aunt all have diet related diabetes so...

Happy birthday Nikki, hope you have a fantastic day. X

Honk for day 4, and even more important for me, a weekend honk - not had one of those since the summer.

Thanks, I think it's the price that keeps putting me off, especially when I can find lots of different things on YouTube and have so many DVDs on the shelf which I have become bored with.

Can you pkeaae keep me posted on what you think of the box set, I'm thinking of getting it when I've finishes the 30 day shred.

I did gulp a little when I picked it up, but I'm going to get the full collection.

Think I may have just fallen in love :-)

The gauge for the heating oil tank still has two bars on it but the boiler had cut out because it's actually empty and an emergency delivery won't be here till Monday. So no heating or hot water all weekend. Just glad shower is electric.

Bought the hazelnut one yesterday and love it. May try it with a spoonful of options in it for a mocha later today. Think I may be buying the other flavours next time I'm out.

Nikki, you have a very good reason for saving the money - I can't see much difference in the pack just little changes here and there. I'm so glad OH went back to work last Thursday which meant I was bored and on my own so had plenty of time to start back exercising. Also I went back Wednesday...

Hello, congratulations on getting to target and keeping it off for 18 months, I've been there for 16 months. I'm sure you'll get rid of the last 6 months gains pretty quickly.

Thanks Kim Good luck getting to target this year - I'm determined to get down into the low 8's this year. At least I'm starting this year 5lbs lower than I did last year.

Congratulations on the loss.

My first honk in a while.

If you lot can't get me re-motivated, I'm just going to have to get the needle out and sew up my mouth. :-) Weigh in tomorrow, I only put half on over Christmas, but we hit the restaurants and take away this week as we couldn't face the shops, so who knows this week. Still I have been at the...

Hello everyone, nice to see some familiar faces. Hope you've all had a good Christmas and new year. Last week I was still in target range, not I'm not holding out much hope and I seem to swiftly back to 9 stone, so I'm back to try and get myself some focus again. Kate x

Bit of a slow start for me this month as dance classes have stopped for Ramadan - but I finally started running again on Sunday after 6 weeks off and I'm starting the C25K again (partly because I was worried about how much I'd lost of my fitness and the partly because of my phone dying I've lost...

Bit of a lapse in running recently as I had cold for 3 weeks and then a week in Rome, but I did so much getting ready for a show and then walking whilst on holiday I've still managed to get the hours on.

Hi lucylu I'm still around and doing ok. Put on a little weight whilst in Rome last week but still in target range and under 9 stone. Glad to hear you're finally in your own place. How the 8 weeks weren't too bad.

Better catch up on what I've done over the last couple of weeks. There's been 1 dance class for 2 hours, and I must have done about 5 hours of walking and carrying this weekend, plus 1 hour gardening the weekend before. I go on holiday Monday, but I will probably spend the week running around...

Thanks - I've practically stopped since the performance on Saturday - I even dropped out of one of the dances I was doing as I couldn't face throwing my head about for the Iraqi dance. Thankfully I'm starting to feel better now, unfortunatly I think OH is now coming down with it.

No idea on the actual hours of exercise I did yesterday. We were at the theatre from 2 till 11 and apart from the 1 hour where I was putting on make up the rest of the time was spent with final show rehearsals whilst lighting was being tested, running up and down between the changing rooms and...

Congratulations on the weight loss so far. Same here, I'm at target, my BMI is hovering around 22 and I still think I look the same as I did 4.5 stone ago when I look in a mirror or see photos. What I've found helps when I'm feeling really bad is to put on some old clothes I've saved for the...

Failed run 3 on week 9 tonight. I ran the first 15 mins well covering 2.7km which would have given me 5.4km in the time unfortunately my ankle started hurting half way through and I managed to continue at a slower pace for the next 11 minutes which took me to 4.3km before giving in and walking...

4lbs on in that time whilst stressed, busy, coping with change in routine etc is not bad at all. Good luck with the in-laws. Men, sometimes they just don't have a clue. My keeps saying he wants mine back. Good luck to your dd, it took me 10 months to lose 4 stone and I was messing around...

I've been catching up on 4OD. I'm struggling to believe that they really have no idea of why they're putting weight on and think they're a medical mystery,especially when they are over eating and drinking to such extremes.

Thanks, never thought I'd do, although due to long term ankle tendonitis (strange how it has eased up since being refered for physio), fear of an increase in running time and dance rehearsals and performances taking up some of my running time it's taken me nearer 14 weeks than 9.

I think the aim is for 90 minutes of exercise over at least 3 sessions so you're not sitting on your backside all week and going out for a 90 minute walk once a week, which helps to make it a life style change.

Sorry I've not been around much, life seems to have been so hectic recently. There's lots to catch up on. Hope everyone's alright, and all this talk of holidays - just glad I don't have to do the beach bit on mine.

congratulations on greeting out for you're first run and wanting to continue. Week 8 run 1, just wish I could manage more than 2 runs a week, but don't want to push the ankle too much

Sounds like you're going all hippy on us..... yoga, chick pea dhal, veggie sausages..... next you'll be telling us about weaving yogurt. :innocent0002: I also plan on wearing them onto the plane rather than packing them, although they do cause fun going through security with all the metal...

I'm 2 from the bottom of my target at the moment. But I'm going to cheat and wear heavy boots to weigh in, so I can go out the bottom of my target without paying to give me more to play with on holiday.

Congratulations.

1lb off for me today so not bad as I'm now under target again. I try to keep my pee from pale straw to colourless. I'm trying to keep my blow outs to a minimum at the moment so I can have a 6 day blow out in July. How much do you think I can put on in a week in Rome? I keep thinking of...

Lucy, hope you feel better soon. Right I've booked my holiday so I need to get myself sorted by the last week in July. I need to be below target by as much as possible so I can enjoy the delights Rome has to offer. Pizza, pasta and wine binge looming. Not done too badly this week, although my...

May have just done something silly, I have challenged my boss to a 5k race. Only saving grace will be he doesn't run, but he does play football.

I wouldn't say it was easy and it is something you need to work at and push yourself. But it is do able by those who thought they would never be runners. Plus if it was easy, everyone would be doing it and you wouldn't get such a feeling of satisfaction and achievement when you manage each run.

I went out in the rain tonight and quite enjoyed it, apart from my glasses steaming up. Stopped me getting all hot and sweaty.

If you're doing lots of exercise you'll need to be drinking 2 to 3 litres of non caffeinated drinks, especially as it gets warmer. Let me know if you want the "too much information" way of knowing how dehydrated you are.

I'm back after a few days of not having time on my computer, and there's lots to answer so bare with me as I multiquote (now I've learnt to do it) Thank you Glad you're feeling positive, you've already done the hardest bit which is the getting started, I'm not saying it's easy but it's a...

Skinny_Jeans are you drinking lots? when you exercise lots you need lots of water otherwise you get dehydrated and retain any water you do drink.

Good luck with the house. It must be an awful situation to be in. 0.5lb gain today for me, but not bad considering the week I had with 2 birthday cakes at work and going out for my mum's birthday yesterday.

Afternoon ladies Just relaxing after a busy weekend. Spent yesterday in a field for may day celebrations, only syns were the hot chocolate and marshmallows. Today was spent in York for my mums birthday and not looking for a loss tomorrow. Lucylu, good luck with getting to your new target and...

I hate moving house and have down to never do it again. I must also confess to being a Virgo worrier. Unfortunately I am my own worst enemy as my sagittarius moon also makes me bury my head in the sand, so I worry about things but then try to ignore them which only makes me worry more. The...

OH has just gone to get us a curry and I'm drinking a cocktail I've just created with what was in the house, Tia Maria, Amaretto, Raspberry vodka and coke. Think I may be self sabotaging at the moment. Then again we cried off the camping we were supposed to be doing and I would probably have had...

Just completed week 7 run 1. The thing I'm finding amazing about this program is that although each week has been a challenge and has pushed me, apart from the first run of the first week which was the most challenging, no week has actually been more physically challenging than the other.

Joints can be delicate if you're worried about anything my only recommendation would be to get professional advice.

You'll probably surprise yourself, I know I did. Just take it steady so you hold something back for the end of your run. I found it was more of a mental struggle than a physical one, the temptation to stop can be quite large and your mind will make you think your body can't cope, but as I've...

Completed run 3 of week 6 today - realised half way round I have no more runs with walks in them. The only walking I did today is due to doing a new route and not realising I would be wading ankle deep through mud and grass. Don't think I'll be doing that one again until it's dried out, my nice...

Good luck

Congratulations on the lb off. Here's my rant on the subject. I think the problem is people perceptions of what is normal have grown larger as more people have become over weight. There's then all this back lash against slim people because of the media attention on undereight models, that any...

Arrrggghh, I feel bad, not got started yet, I was supposed to do 30 day shred when I got back from weigh in but an estate agent us coming round tomorrow to value the house for the land lords divorce, so I've been running around panic tidying and come to the conclusion we have too much stuff. Oh...

1 on for me this evening. Better than a couple of days ago and my stomach still feels a bit rough. Plus I'm still under my official target, so not too unhappy.

Congratulations on your progress everyone. I was bad yesterday and didn't go out in the wind and rain. I still did the 30 day shred though and I will do week 6 run 3 on Wednesday, even if it is raining - I can cope with rain, it's the wind that gets to me.

The dance class I'm waiting for is the advance class so it's with dancers who have been dancing for several years. The one I do on a Thursday is a drop in beginners class so there are always new people starting, I've just not left it as it leads into a night out with the teacher who has become...

I'm 5 2, really I am honest........ I'm currently about 8 8 and was trying to get to 8 3, but currently coming to terms with the fact I may not need to lose anymore. I've just started with the shred and have been running for about 7 Weeks. So trying to tone up rather than lose. I had several...

There are alot of them there, and it would have been too spooky if he did. Now tia maria and baileys sound like something he would have introduced me to and I love it, it's nice with amaretto too.

I started about 6 years ago. Wish I'd found it sooner.

Congratulations on finishing black widow. I'm just waiting for my dance class, 2 hours of rehearsals to come. Just wish I could remember the choreographies. Oh well 6 Weeks to show time. Plus we're dancing with the belly dance superstars in 3 Weeks so that's 4 I need to get in my head.

That's why I've been having words with myself. My brain keeps thinking about vanity sizing and is convinced that's the equivalent of a size 12 really, I just wish I still had my original size 10 wedding dress from the early 90's to try on so I could check for definite.

It is small, you'll have to see if he remembers someone nicknamed Troll. I don't remember him telling me about mixing it with vodka, but definitley it being so cheap. I'm a size 6-8 now, so yes I guess I'm small, the dancing does help, especially with the thought of skimpy costumes.

Near Coopers bridge in Mirfield.

Worse mistake he ever made coming out. He was in 42 Commando, was an Engineer based at Stonehouse and also worked in the stores before being transferred to Arbroath. It was after one of his trips to Norway that I was introduced to Baileys and got a shock in a pub to find it wasn't served in...

Is that the one in Birstall? That was the place of my nightmare, I work the otherside of the motorway to where your location.

Reminds me of my one and only trip to Ikea, I thought I was going to be there all night.......... I couldn't find the exit, haven't dared to go back.

I'm up for a challenge, what are you proposing? I'd like to lose the last 5lbs to get me down to 8 3 and lose and inch from my waist and hips. I check and record every morning and evening.

Getting my head around the fact I'm no longer fat is taking more effort than the losing weight. I know struggling problem, I moved my target down to 8 3 as I wasn't comfortable at 8 13, once I got to 8 8 I just didn't seem able to lose any more weight and so after a discussion with my C I...

Lucylu, if I feel hungry half an hour later, I have a pint of squash and see how I'm doing, if I still feel hungry 15 mins later I'll have a yogurt and banana (unless there's left overs when I go and get myself a tea plate sized portion). Skinny Jeans - recently my losses have slowed right...

Sorry I've been having a bit of a lurk to see how you're doing. I used to love going to the plume of feathers when my brother was based in Plymouth. Also miss the strawberries, ice cream and clotted cream from the ice cream van, I think it was down on the hoe.

You can do it, you've not got much left to do.

Good luck with your race Sinead.

I agree with every thing tractor girl said. It's in the pushing yourself that you improve. You also need to do more than just run to improve your overall fitness levels.

Hubby does most of our cooking, follows a recipe *whether it be for 4 or 6) and then used to share it out between the two of us, if I didn't finish it he thought he'd done something wrong (men :rolleyes:). Thankfully now, he's realised that I don't need to eat that much and he now lets me serve...

Getting back into exercise is something I struggle with after a break. As I'm just about at target now, I'm finding I'm need something to replace my weight loss obsession so that I don't just put it all back on again. 35 minutes running week 6 run 2 of the C25K Acc 16 hrs - 16hrs completed...

Hi Hider Just looked back and seen that you mentioned going out 6 days a week. I have attached an article about over training, which can result in loss of performance, hope this helps. Don't know which version of the programme you are doing, but most of them plan for three days running a week...

Weeeeee on losing 2lbs, I managed another 0.5lbs - but I am supposed to me "maintaining". Good luck with your new target, my C is being really good to me at the moment as having a target stresses me out so I can't lose and I'm trying to find a comfortable weight for me to stay at, which could...

Glad you're in a good place, I've been feeling much better since calling target. I'm no longer obsessing, if I want more healthy extras I'm having them, but only if I really want them. I'm trying keep within my syns but I'm being flexible about it and not feeling guilty if I go over at the weekend.

Charlotte, that could so easy be one of my posts. I'm beginning to realise that I may want to be 7 something and have a BMI under 21, but being short it just means I will have problems finding shops with my size and I'm no better off than before I lost the weight (in clothes department).

Rest days are as important as training days otherwise it can lead to over training and injury. Your body needs time to recover. On my rest days I do other types of training, mostly dancing, but also toning and strength, and sometimes just a walk. So a rest day doesn't mean doing nothing it means...

Thank you for your input. I think I'm finally realising how small I've got and what I need to do now is concentrate on toning and building muscle. Even if I look in the mirror and still see nothing but fat. I need to be able to maintain a weight without it being a constant battle.

I'm going to go for 8 7 and concentrate on exercise, it's not like my BMI is high anymore and my fat % is coming down nicely, although I need to get in measured on some scales as I've been using the methods on the internet which use a tape measure and probably aren't so acurate.

It was Jewell of Yorkshire in Saltaire. My group were dancing as part of the teachers performances during the competition on the Friday night and then there were 2 days of classes to choose from. Picked up a leaflet today and have started planning my October workshops. yasmina is coming over...

Know what you mean, I tried on 9 belly dance costumes on over the weekend and only one came any where near fitting, almost as bad as 18 months ago when they were all too small. I'm also buying size 8 bottoms so unable to buy much smaller in most of the shops I go to.

Due to a pain in my foot when I ran last week and having a dance performance at a stage show on Friday I rested Wednesday, so I was fit to dance, then due to dancing on Friday I didn't get chance to run on Friday.

Tell me about it, I have the coil and I can go anything from 1 to 10 Weeks. I'm learning that a couple of moments of pleasure from eating the food I want leaves me feeling bad for days, so I'm starting to go off them.

Sorry to hear it wasn't successful. Lots of hugs. If you're allowed to eat biscuits art any time I think it's now.

I did run 2 of week 6 yesterday. I had a bit of pain in my foot on the second run so walk for about a minute trying to decide whether to repeat on Wednesday, or move on to run 3. Each week appears to be scary at the beginning.

Hopefully you'll have pulled it back by Wednesday.

Our family tends to be boobs and thighs. Plus I've not had kids.

Hugs, wish I had some tips to give you but I've only gained in the last month. The only thing I can think of, is are you drinking enough? My stomach can take up to 5 days to recover from one evening of plan and drinking lots seems to help.

You must have a larger frame than me. Up until my early 20's I was always under weight (damn finding Bailey's and starting work so I could afford takeaways), at the age of 15 my mum threw away some t-shirts I was still wearing which were age 3 and my wrists even at my largest were still tiny and...
