Anyone in the 9s want to be in the 8's ??

[lilprincessvic]

Haha I did it looser so that it would look like I lost more Haha.

Im 5"3 so a little taller. Ive always had a tiny waist and a flat belly so that's good. Unfortunately my pic is from last year when I was at target. Ill change it to a newer one x

If I didn't have belly wobble, I would be fairly happy with my body! DH says its just skin, but I know differently lol!

No guilt is good lol. Sometimes I just cant be bothered to diet. Im not in the mood to diet sometimes at all!

Good luck with your run today Donna!

Why is this lurgy still here? BE GONE! Was nice to get to relax and be ill without having to be at work yesterday - lots of sleeping, reading and a nice long bath

My willpower was non existent so I did give into Chinese last night, not even a remotely healthy choice - large portion of chips and satay sauce yummmm! One bad meal shouldn't ruin my week though - hoping the lurgy will shift soon so I can get back into exercising - was getting quite close to the end of c25k and really want to finish it xx

thank you

sorry to hear your still ill, im sure it'll be gone soon. You are spot on, one bad meal will not ruin your week, sometimes we need that bit of a treat to boost us or get us back on it. Also after being poorly for so long you needed a treat no doubt.

Laura, sometimes having an off plan day can bizzarely boost the weight loss & even if it doesn't you have 6 more days til next WI, so Im sure you'll be fine. Unfortunately, bugs take their own sweet time so you have to just go with it, but just keep topped up on fluids & Paracetamol.

Vicky, our measurements are quite similar & yes we are lovely & curvy......all woman as my DH says lol! He keeps telling me there is nothing of me......

Hope you enjoy your run in the freezing cold Donna, a braver lady than me as Im certainly not venturing out in this bitter wind on my bike!

Ordered some clothes off Next & they're all doing back.......size 10 shorts too big, medium top too big & size 10 cropped skinny jeans just horrid & didn't suit me!
Jumped on the new scales this morning & they correlate with my old ones, but just more precise as weigh in 2 ounce increments! My weight is accurate as well, as weighed a 15kg bag of dog food & its correct. So this morning I was 8st 10lbs 10 ounces! Think I can see some seriel weighing going on now lol!

I loved my run, although we did have a couple of moments where we were like "what are we doing to ourselves" did just over 9 and a half as we decided it was too cold for 13 so didnt follow a route as such. I didnt use my gel or jelly babies either as just didnt think about them. Was very muddy again.

If I didn't have belly wobble, I would be fairly happy with my body! DH says its just skin, but I know differently lol!

Snap!!!

I took my measurements and Im not happy, i dont know why im not happy as i dont know whats good and what isnt, hopefully in a month or two when i measure again ill see a difference and that will make me happy. Might post them later but im too comfy to go get them now lol

Well done on your run Donna.
I found when I was running a lot that instead of losing weight I gained. I could not lose no matter how much mileage I did. I now don't run much but do spinning and weight training instead and I'm half stone lighter now. It doesn't make sense but I must have been eating to much carbs I think. Also I'd have a bar and think nothing of it as I'd say sure I ran 8 miles earlier!

Cold here in Ireland too but we don't have snow thankfully!
Was back to 8st 8 this week. I am happy enough to maintain that. I love choc though and looking forward to Easter!!

well done. when i last weighed few weeks ago i was that weight still haven't bought battery for scales. think am now too scared of what they say. may weigh this week as after my spa overnight i plan on getting back on track with following sw properly or even looking at simply filling for a change x

 

[kim63]

I measure in cm's, as to me they are just numbers coz I still think in 'old money' i.e inches! So the numbers dont really make sense, all I want is to see the numbers go down!

Deb, just measure at the widest point of each bit of your body, dont pull the tape tight & you should get fairly accurate results!

Was really looking forward to going our for a ride, but its way to cold & Im working tonight & find I get too tired when I have to stay awake all night! So, off to do my cycle Tabata & sit ups

 

[donna88]

I measured in inches, but still don't know why I didn't like the results as I really don't know what I should be... ahhh well.

So tired now, will be off to pick little one up from his Dad's in a second... then its 4 days until Easter weekend

 

[kim63]

Im sure the measurements will be fine Donna coz if your a size 10 you must be pretty tiny!

I cant wait for easter hols donna. I really really hate my work n dont wanna go back tomorrow.
My friend from work has just been up to school and the snow on the drive comes over her knee n shes 6 foot tall. Unfortunately our caretaker knows someone with a snow plough so I reckon it will be gone by morning.


Random but does anyone know how well babycorn blends?

That's very random. Made me lol after reading about snow, caretakers & snow ploughs

My answer is I dunno I've never blended them. Might not blend too well

Never thought about blending baby sweetcorn if Im honest.....raw or cooked? Why would you want to blend it? Is it to make a soup?

 

[donna88]

Well these are my measurements

Under bust - 31
bust - 36
waist - 28
hips - 34
thighs - 21.5

Will be interesting to see if I do change with running. How long would you suggest leaving it until measuring again?


We're not sure if we're due more snow tonight or not now, local weather says no, metoffice says yes. Part of me really wants it for a snow day or two haha, but I'm sure this week will go quite quickly.

Never tried blending them either, only thing you can do is try it



Stuffed after my chilli tonight, but I'm sure once I've finished my ironing I'll have worked up an appetite for my syns and HEB

 

[lilprincessvic]

Very random and will seem even more random when I tell u why lol.

Was making sunday dinner and forgot to turn the veg on so had a pan of broccoli cauliflower and baby corn uncooked when rest of tea was ready so decided to try make a soup. Just about to try blend now. Wish me luck lol x

 

[lilprincessvic]

They do blend. More or less!

Hope you dont mind donna but I just used your measurements to compare to mine. My oh believes I have some kind of body dismophia cos when I look in a mirror most days I feel huge but if I look om a photo I can see different.

Now to say theres about 1.5 stone weight difference there's about 10cm/4in difference all over which means I must be doing something right cos u look amazing donna!!!

Of course I don't mind. Glad its made you feel better about yourself hun, You looked slim in the dress pic you posted (yes from the back I know, haven't seen any others) Thank you that's nice to hear (or read I suppose)

Goes to show you, you don't have as far to go to loose those inches as you thought to get into your dress as well.

I think we're all guilty of seeing the worse in ourselves

They do blend. More or less!

Good stuff, hope the soup tastes nice

 

[Jo2982]

I'm gonna do my measurements tomorrow. I want to lose 12lb before July which is easy enough to do as long as I stick to it.

I would be interested to see how the inches change with the weight in the scales
