Been so slack with this diary lately.
I have been writing my food down in my phone though so still keeping track.
I do ok for a couple of days then fall again.
Just cant get chocolate out my head right now

Still havent done the dress picture, I will though. I've just been so busy lately.

I bit the bullet and weighed myself. First weigh in after the Bristol Half and I really expected atleast a 7lb gain as i've litterally picked sooooo much! but happy to only see 1.25lbs. Leaves me 19lbs to lose in 10weeks. Which is just about achievable if I get my butt into gear!

[summergurl]

Decided to go for a swim today! Totally not like me but I really enjoyed it. Set out to do 30lengths but just kept going and did 50 in 36minutes. Think I may put it into my phys plan as swimmings pretty good for all over body work out. The only problem, I get so hungry after swimming calories too high again today Think I may have to rethink my one pot wonders as they do work out quite high in calories.

What do you put in your one pots now? x

 

[summergurl]

Well in this one there is turkey mince (used the cals on the pack and it said for when done as per instructions; frying in a pan with oil but I didnt do that, I dry fried it and drained it) can of butterbeans, carrots, jar of casserole sauce, 1/2tin toms & tomatoe paste.

Did stump today. Boy it was tough. I can see that coming to bite me on the butt tomorrow.
I'm planning on getting up early tomorrow to get to body step for 10:30 as I have the night off my actual job but i'm doing a shift so may aswell get up early and do something productive as i'll be missing my run and pump tomorrow.

Calories alot better today. Duno exactly how many I burnt at stump but its a good 500 I reckon.
I'm trying not to eat the calories I burn & use them as extra but if i'm hungry then I will delve into them.
Seem to feel strong & raring to go today with the food malarky. It'll be just saturday that messes me up with all the alcohol

Thur 18th Oct Stump
B- costa toastie 305
L- turkey pot & cous cous 592
*yog 75
*hot choc 40
D- pitta 244

banana 100
Total = 1,506

 

[JanD]

Oooo that sounds lovely . I guess you could save on cals by not using the casserole sauce & using a whole tin of toms and a load of herbs instead? Might not be as thick that's the only thing.

Glad you're feeling focussed xx

 

[summergurl]

Finally pics of the dress. No face as hair n make up not done lol it's the side view I'm most worried about. That bit of belly.

It's 5weeks 3days now till the Christmas do & I have to sort this. Will be back when I've got 5 to update weekend food n drink. Was bad, had dominoes & a small bit of Chinese on Sunday

Ill be focusing on shorter runs but quicker, so higher intensity, adding in swimming once a week too and trying to keep the carbs down as much as I can to try rid some belly fat.

 

[JanD]

It looks fab just as it is but I know you'll feel better in yourself if you're where you want to be. You can do it kid xx

 

[Foo Fan]

Love it!!!!!!

 

[MiniB]

You look fantastic Tanya!
