Thanks Daisy! Yeah I'm surprised at the biscuits! I suppose it's all about habit! And breaking that habit!
Thank hun! LOVE the boxing! My partner wasn't great at holding the boxing pads last night though so the second half of the workout wasn't great as I do the sequences quite fast, and it sounds big headed..., but she couldn't keep up
But I've been there longer...that sounds really big headed! Sorry! It's hard tho when you can't go at your own pace! YAY! that's the main thing! Please god I'll stay in the tens!Yayy back in the 10's!! Next step 10 st 7lb well that's how I'm doing it half a stone at a time.

So sorry for not posting since Tuesday! HECTIC week!
Starting back at work is always hard but it does give me a great structure food wise 5/7 days a week. The play I'm in is on next week so my evenings will be freer then. I feel like I'm cramming food in at the moment to get to my calorie goal and killing myself to fit in exercise! I'll be glad when I can chill a bit more!!!
Here's an overview:
Wednesday: 1297 cals, under by 3. total body spin class
Thursday: 1244 cals under by 77. That's quite a lot to be under but I'll use them on weigh in day! And more! Also did a 4km jog.
Friday: 1268 cals under by 32. Again, under, but they're added to the weekend bank of cals! Rest day Friday.
Saturday: Have a big opening night party for my gym to go to! V excited! They said there would be food and drink but I'm going to try and not eat the nibbles and I've planned for nice, good food throughout the day. Sort of my normal food so no food treats. And then about 4/5 drinks of vodka and diet coke! Haven't drank in over a month!!! So this should be fun. Nervous about drinking now though in case it negatively affects my weight loss next week. But I hope because I have accounted for it it'll be ok! GOing to do a 4k jog today to help and then pull back cals tomorrow to keep me under my weekly goal if I need to.
Aiming for about 1500/1600 cals! Which is about 300 over what I normally eat.... but it's all PLANNED!
So today's weigh in. I felt more or less the same in my clothes tbh and was delighted at that. I just wanted to maintain my loss more or less and maybe lose a small bit more...
Last week I was
10st 12.2
This week I was
10st 9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :face: :shock:
MADNESS! Bit scared by the fact I lost 3.2 this week to be honest! I'm having my "That's going to bounce back on" panic attack! But hopefully not! Maybe it's just my body kicking in! WHo knows!
Good things about this weight loss though!!!
I am now back in the 140's!
Most of my clothes are fitting ok again!
I've lost half a stone since my holiday!
I've nine pounds to goal!
YAY!
Let's hope it continues and that the return of alcohol doesn't destroy the hard work!! x

Aw thanks ladies... So sorry I haven't been even able to read everyone's diaries! Hopefully when it calms down I can get back to posting and reading properly!
Quick update on today!
So last night went to plan, went to the party, didn't eat the food there and had one more vodka than I planned but was still only over by 216 which I'm very happy with especially cos I did a jog yesterday too.
Today's food! I saved back the calories I went over by yesterday. I like to do that when I can but obv it's not always possible. That way I feel I've my treat day, but it balances out...if that makes sense!
Breakfast
porridge, honey, ginger and cinnamon made with skimmed milk
Lunch
Bowl of homemade red pepper and butternut squash soup
Melon and grape mix with 100g natural low fat yoghurt
Dinner
roast chicken 150g, dry roast potato (1), turnip mash, broccoli and gravy and tablespoon stuffing
Sugar free jelly
Snacks
WW scone with reduced sugar jam 15g
Alpen light bar
Babybel light
Total cals: 1144 saved 156
Weekly summary: 68 calories under weekly goal. HURRAY! (that's after my defecit) So another on target week!
Week's exercise: 185/120 minutes. Did 65 minutes extra exercise!
Again, good week thank god and a new one tomorrow! Sorry again I haven't been able to catch up with you all, hope ye had a great weekend!
Oh and by the way! Was in my local butchers and they had minced beef. It looked REALLY lean so I asked out of curiosity was it a lean mince etc... and it turns out it's only 2% fat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I'll be eating a lot more mince in the future!!!!
