Lea's Weight Loss Journey - Cannot believe WI today...

Well done on your loss!

Dont you love it when its so much more than you expected! Make's is doubly as nice!

Here's to a great loss next week too xx
 
Thanks guys. I had a slither of cheesecake in celebration lol :D
 
So another week in. These weeks are just flying by. Last night I did a 20 minute RC toning routine and 45 mins of Wii Fit aerobics. I also drank 1.5l of water which if you knew me would know that is A LOT! I am sat here this morning with another 1l bottle of water and aim to get through at least 1.5l again.

I was working out this morning that if I lose 1lb per week from now until my daughters christening (7th December) I will weigh 10st 12lbs. I would LOVE to reach the 10s by her big day. If I managed that I would only have 2 more lbs to lose to reach my Christmas challenge.

I am getting so excited about the prospect of entering the 10s....I have not been there since the early stages of pregnancy with my son (he is almost 3!). I fully expect breaking that milestone to be challenging :/

Anyway, feeling good today. Yesterday I turned up at my weekly baby club in my size 14 jeans and a little black vest top to which people starting asking about my weight...how much had I lost? What plan was I following etc. 2 of the girls have now joined WW too. I feel really pleased. My sister inspired me with her success and now I may have had a little influence on 2 other people. Isn't it great how we can all help each other like this?

I would also like to add my DH bought a large block of cadbury's fruit and nut last night. I would normally each half of it! I have controlled myself and had just 1 square! Yep just one. It is sat in the cupboard and I may have to ask him to move it as it is calling my name lol but i am so proud of myself :D Chocolate is my weakness........
 
So today I managed 2l of water or more :D and I did a heavy 40 minute RC workout. Feeling shattered now (and have a headache!).

Right, of to bedfordshire....
 
congrats on not eating the chocolate - i'm the same and have to not have it around or have someone hide it because I'm terrible if I know its there! good luck with your 1lb a week for your daughters christening - once you start getting close you will have to treat yourself to a gorgeous outfit for it to celebrate!

Also, was looking at your before and after pictures and I know it has been said before but you're already looking fantastic and its certainly showing in your face how much you have lost! :) x

Thanks so much. That is really nice of you. I don't feel fantastic but I feel much better than I did 6 weeks ago. I plan to get a lovely outfit nearer the time. Hopefully a size 12 ;)
 
So today I did a 2 hour walk with Cora (my baby girl) and it was a fast walk. I think I covered around 3 miles. I was so pleased with myself. No Wii Fit or RC for me tonight. I got 4.5 points from that today....really pleased.

Exercise is definitely on th up here :)
 
well done hun :) good to see you are enjoying your exercise. Are you sure you covered 3 miles? Cos I know someone who walked the race for life (which is 3.3 miles) in about an hour 10 mins at a fast pace... you must have covered double that? Unless you were doing half the average pace for a woman (the average is 3 miles per hr) which I'm sure would feel very slow, not fast :D. Thinking you probably covered more like 6 miles hun!! xx
 
Ohhhh you think so? Maybe I will trace my route tonight in the car ;)

I did not walk fast for the whole way (come the end I had slowed a little) plus I stopped in 2 shops and bought Cora a couple of outfits. I just looked on multimap though and from my house to the furtheset point was 2.5 miles and I came back too so i guess I covered 5 miles afterall. Wow.....that seems so far! Even more proud of myself now. Thanks for pointing that out Nikki.

A 5 mile walk....who would have thought???? :D
 
WOW ... how do you manage so much excersize it certainly puts me to shame! i just dont have the inclination! maybe a walk now and then yeah! ... I do clean alot (for other people) lol ....
SOunds like your doing wonderfully xxxx
 
LOL I make myself do it! I am determined to shift this weight! I have a 4 month old and a nearly 3 year old at home too. I use my evenings wisely I guess :D
I am quite proud of myself actually (but still VERY unfit!).

Well done Lea, you are doing very well! We're all proud of you too! xx
 
Hehe you're welcome hun! Glad to be of service! 5 miles... thats a really long way when u think about it!! Well done on all your exercise, I can't compete with the amount ur doing lol xx
 
You are doing really well with the exercise :D I really should work out just how far I've been walking as well :)
 
Bit of a downer this morning :( After a week of hard word exercise wise (done loads!) and eating all my points and drinking loads of water I took a peak at the scales this morning (I always do Sunday and Monday morning) and the scales STS (may even have gained a couple of ounces!). I am not happy at all. I have done everything to the book too. I know it was TOTM last week but that has gone now so should not cause a problem. I'm not sure what has happened this week but I was really hoping to break my stone lost :( I won't give up until i know for sure tomorrow but I think my stone will have to wait another week. Nevermind :(
 
Well soon to go to bed and I have been so good today but I am dreading WI in the morning. I just know it is a STS (it was this morning anyway). Nevermind. Night night x
 
hey hun see my post about the 10 day delay. If you were on TOTM last week that may be why the weight is showing as the same right now, but in a weeks time you will find that your hard work has paid off on the scales. Its textbook 10 day delay! :) xxx
