Katy's Diary

Woop!


Sadly, I only just figured how to upload pic! Wasn't being secretive! Haha! This was on hols in croatia last yr. I've got a peppermint tea and a coke z on the go here. Bored out of brains. Roomies are away for weekend and I'm MISSING them. In a bad mood about the course tomorrow though... Got to get over it!

Are you girls aiming for a stone a month? And have you found it's generally a dress size a stone?
 
I would like a stone a month but seem to be losing it a little slower than that. Still, can't complain it's still more than I would have lost on WW or something. I'm sure a stone is a dress size...ish - at 9 stone I'm a 12, at 13 stone I'm an 18, maybe 1.5 stones to each dress size?

I've just had a GIANT cup of tea in the biggest mug that we own :D
 
I read that and just necked my tea! Hahaha! Now - have you tried or heard of 30 day shred? A little TMI, but I've just come to have a boredom bath and am mulling weight loss. My friend did t with 30 day shred too- remember the Instagram pics? I'd be up for giving it a go but don't know how far I can push my knee. It'd prob need pushing anyway, even if it's not post major surgery! So, have any of you tried it? Can I do most of it with a semi-lame knee? Any experienced shredders out there? Wonder if I'm just making excuses...

Physio says I have a week or so of taking it easy and can then push it a bit more. I think he was being kind when I was being a bit of a wimp!!!

There are three levels on iTunes... Anyone with me to see if it'll speed up the losses? £3.99!
 
Hi again.... I did 30 day shred, loved it BUT day 3 my right knee started to twinge, I ignored it, did day 4 and 5... After that my knee was bummed and ended up on crutches. I had no previous knee problems either.

Have a look at the reviews of the DVD from amazon, a lot of people say the same. Although think level 2 and 3 is less agro on knee.

As for the work out, was brilliant and I'd be covered in sweat after 15 mins! Xx
 
Gaaaah... Last thing I need is knee agro. I'm seven weeks post op from acl surgery. I had one of my hamstrings taken out to make a new ligament so that leg is still a prob.

Do you know what it was that stressed your knee? Jumping? Twisting? Impact of certain exercises?

I would like to give it a go... Ill read the reviews though! Thanks!
 
There is a lot of lunges, jumping jacks, butt kicks and skipping on the spot, the only upper body work is combined with lunges and jumping jacks (I think). Maybe get the DVD off eBay and give it a go but miss out the knee stuff? X
 
I will investigate... I can do lunges and squats but nothing jumpy til 12 weeks!
 
I'm sure I've read on here that 30ds is on youtube, I must admit I've deliberately remained ignorant of it but I know it's something I should do, especially after my 'health check' at work that said I was 48 :cry:

If you think you can tailor it to protect your knee I'd be up for giving it a go and see if it makes a difference :D
 
Ok- let's do it! I know what I can do with my kne anyway, so I won't do anything daft.

Down to 17st in a couple of days. YES!

Right... Off to become speed aware. *sigh*
 
Busy day... But I'll check the interweb like you say.

Speed awareness... Did what it said on tin. Terrified of hitting small child. X
 
I had a crispy choc in the morning and chilli when i got back- was all fine! I don't fancy a pack this eve, so I've just had some turkey and cottage cheese & salad.

Watching friends with benefits right now and gearing up to go out... Really CBA though. ? You know, I just want to watch crap telly and veg.

I went to see live at the Apollo and that episode is on tonight!
 
You're v brave to go out!

Ive got tea, sofa, blanket and Wales playing rugby. The only way I'd move my ass from this sofa is if I got a personal invite to the after match team bath!!! X
 
Haaaahaaa!


Well, party went well. Only thing is... Mr Shy Guy has been showing a little interest. He's v v cute and I'd like to get to know him better... Only I know a friend has had a thin for him. Tricky. Since he's shy, it's not totally obvious either ... Hmmm! We're going to pub tomorrow night!
 
Indeed! There might not be anything in it... He's defo a hottie though! Tricky negotiating the friend thing... I don't think there's anything wrong in a bit of a flirt, and I don't want to hurt her... But then again I don't want to stay single for the rest of my days either!
