Ding Dong the Enemy's dead!

[summergurl]

haha - pretty normal Mary!
Isn't it something to do with exercise releasing 'happy endorphins' (sp?) whatever they are! But i always feel the same - great after exercise.

Infact - maybe we are just ill.....that would be what Jan would say :giggle:

 

[kered]

I am sure Jan will be very worried when she reads this later.......lol

 

[JanD]

Yeah you're right I AM worried ... for your sanity!!

I've heard about the 'high' from exercising ... but apart from a VERY brief sojourn into running 10 years ago which didn't last long because of injury I have never really understood it. If I do anything now I feel TERRIBLE!!!!

I will start exercising when I see people doing it with big smiles on their faces xx

Good luck to the rest of you though .. good on yer!! xx

 

[kered]

Well I might just try and get Phill to take a pic of me tonight while I am running with a big smile on my face..........watch this space!

 

[JanD]

Not sure that'll count as it'll be 'posed' ... xx

 

[kered]

It will be a smile of pain.....haha.

 

[JanD]

Yep - they run past my house and I see them down along the front all the time .. they look as though they're torturing themselves! Sweat pouring off them, terribly laboured breathing .... can't see the fun myself xx

 

[kered]

At the time, I cant really say that I had a load of fun, but after it was finished, I felt great.

I still felt good this morning, and genuinely am looking forward to doing it all again tonight.

Will deffo get a pic........haha.

 

[summergurl]

Even I'm looking forward to seeing that pic!! :giggle:

The only time I see smiles on faces is when they rub past and do a gentle posed little hello smile!!

 

[kered]

You are ALL saved..........my camera needed charing.

I done exactly the same tonight as last night, 22 minutes, but my heart rate was down to 125 max...........so at least an improvement there. Inner thighs hurting again tonight, but I wont do the treadmill tomorrow, just the Wii fit.

Voddies - well I had 2 and Jan had 1..........so I should feel fine in the morning lol.

 

[JanD]

LOL! Love it xx

 

[summergurl]

Haha have one of them for me = defo no hangover! :giggle:

 

[Scotsmist]

oh, well done Mary!! Exercise is definately addictive..I never used to like it, but I love it (when in the mood obviously)! There are endorphines that are released and the sense of wellbeing after exercise is proven! So, it does help..smile...well, not sure if that is part of the deal !! haha.....but I will be more aware in future and smile more when on all the machines!!!

You will get rid of that gain in NO time at all Mary, I reckon 2 weeks max at this rate!

 

[kered]

I wasn't going to go on the treadmill today, but I got up this morning and was really busy. Prepared dinner, ironed, cleaned, then thought, while I feel so energetic, get on the treadmill. I done another 22 minutes today and wait for it..........................

Cheers chick. I feel stuffed after dinner though, but I know it will soon pass.

I have brought 3 tangerines for a snack in work, and some apple cay (tea)

 

[JanD]

Oh now come on Mary .... sickening or what?? ....

Seriously though - you really are sickening! ... LOL!

You really have got straight back in there! Well done you. Menu looks fab and sit ups as well as the treadmill! .... I don't know!

I'm really pleased for you that you're feeling so great! You deserve to xx

I dont know what has come over me Jan, but I like it. Mind you, I was really good before going on holiday, and hoilday mode didnt even kick in until about the 3rd day over there. I sure as hell made up for it though.

Sneaky peek on the scales is showing a 3lb loss up to now. It never seems as hard to lose it if you get straight back into it, and besides, if we are going away again (flight prices pending) in nearly 4 weeks, I still need to think BIKINI ICMELER, BIKINI ICMELER, BIKINI ICMELER.

 

[JanD]

Well whatever it is that's come over you - long may it last!

Yes I'd forgotten, you really didn't get a 'holiday mode' before you went away did you? I think I had it instead

4 weeks! Oooo lucky you

I've booked flights to take Mum to my sister's in Cyprus in October. I can't honestly say I'm looking forward to it because flying with Mum, wheelchair etc etc is a trial and staying with my sister an even bigger one but it'll probably be Mum's last foreign trip so I'm biting the bullet as I'm determined never to have any regrets. But the point is that is just about 3 weeks after we come back from Kef so I'll have to be little careful or nothing'll be fitting me to go to Cyprus xx

Although, since finishing lipotrim last March 2009, I was really good, it was only those 3.5 months when I stopped smoking that I felt anything like I did pre-LT. But whatever it is, I like it and hope it stays forever

Aww that will be nice for your Mum Jan, she will love it. The help at the airports are extremely good now too, I watched a few in wheelchairs on our last two jaunts, and it definitely takes the stress out of it. As for staying with your Sister - fingers crossed it goes smoothly.

You will be fine with food Mrs once you come back from Kef. Is it a 1 week visit or 2?
