LL May Starters

[sukie sue]

9 and a half stone i think , thats half a stone lighter than 1st time around , but thats so i can balance out back at my original goal of just under 10 stone , but saying that , i run distance now so carry allot of muscle weight so i think im gonna have a look at my smallest clothes fitting lossely like they did then go down a little from there . when i was this weight last time i was bigger clothes than now so there is a definate change in my body with all the exersize ive done , but need to be done by end of july to start training for my next half marathon properly , the little i do now on these calories just isnt enought o carry me round the great north run , but im hoping the loss of over 2 stones will dramatically improve my performance , ... heres to hoping
well better shake me tail feathers and get dressed to go , speak soon , hun , have a beautifull day xxx

ooooo i love the sun x

Hey all, well I had a very productive start to the day, me and vince took bertie (dog) for a walk at bout nine ish, and we walked bout 2 miles ish, it wa lovely and sunny but with a warm brezze. Its an intersting quandry you have SS, keep us informed with your thoughts/decision. Have you been out in the communal garden then Jez? Whats everyone else up to, we've been invited to a BBQ tonight, dunno if Im going or not, Vince is going though, its only at my m&ds so it doesnt matter either way whether I go or not, I'll decide in a bit. Everyone had another good day so far? xxxx

Hope everyone is drinking plenty of water in this heat!

Take care folks

Hello Hunny

Good on you for all the water!! im on about 4l already, its hot so im thirsty!!! Glad you had such a lovely walk this morning. I have WI early this week as I can't go to class on tuesday (got a vip job on) so having a drop in on Monday instead. Hope I have a good loss but I never seem to loose more than 4lbs.... still slow and steady is fine too. How great is the weather??? Here is hoping it holds out for tomorrow. Kat how are you and sukie are you back from the lakes yet, hope you have a fabby tan!!!!

Howdy sweets, well done with the water too. Job sounds cool, good luck for WI - what have your losses been so far? but as you say then slow and steady is fine xxx

 

[Jezebella]

Well I find it easier to work in kg rather than pounds, so inc the 2 weeks before I started and when I cut out carbs its 8.5kg... 2 of those were before LL so in total 6.5kg.

i dont have a clue in kg lol! but as long as we're losing who cares what we measure it in lol x

 

[Jezebella]

This is true, I am so damned impatient though, I always want it all now!!!! Still it has taken me years to put on so a few weeks is really rather quick. I was thinking we need to organise a little meet up for all the lovely Maybelles who are interested, when we all get closer to goal. What do you think?

In principle i sounds great, but I guess it would depend on location, work commitments, family commitments, money etc! where re people located?

Rainbow - York

[rainbow]

come see me then Jez, where bouts are your folks hun? x

 

[Jezebella]

They are in North Yorks, in a village called Rathmell, closest town to them is Settle, and next biggest town is Skipton. But it is only about an hours drive from them to York. Well it was last time I drove to York.

I love North Yorks, Im actually bout half an hour from York, but its normally the nearest place people have heard of. Next time you're coming up let me know and we could meet in york (for a water and peanut bar lol) x

Sounds briliant - hahaha we shall be skinnier then!!! My new discovery is Iced Tea - 1l boiling water, 2 sweetners, 2 teabags and 1tsp of St Clements mix - pop into the fridge and chill, mix 2/3 of that with 1/3 water and lots of ice - Totally divine and tastes just like those bottles of Lipton Iced tea - I am also doing coffee frappes with cold black coffee, sweetner and loads of ice, pop into the blender and its almost like Starbucks!!! Have you tried the Lemon Bar popped into the fridge then cut up?

[rainbow]

will try the iced tea for sure, although having never tried iced tea before I wwont be able to advise on if its like the real deal lol! No, have only tried toffee one (yuk) and peanut (yummy)
Heres a photo of me in my new top (Its Ted Baker and IT FITS ME) I bought it for hol thinking it'd fit by then - but nope, it fits me NOW lol - can ya tell Im pleased!

 

[Jezebella]

Fantastic top hun, and you look great, it is soo nice fitting into things you dont expect to, yesterday I tried on my old pair of levi's which I havent worn in years and they fitted - it is the best feeling, makes it all totally worth it! I am so totally exicted at the thought of all the shopping ahead of us!!!

Jez

ps do you ever use the chatroom function on here?

 

[rainbow]

yer it makes it worth while doesnt it, well done on the levis you. What size are you hoping to be? Im looking at beig a nice 14 I think, although obv a 12 would be better hehe. I love shopping hehe!! Erm, no I used to use the chat room, we kinda said a time and day and all met in there, but then the chat function was taken away, and I didnt know it had been put back lol x

 

[Jezebella]

Its back, just never anyone in there, if you are about later we could pop in?? I just need to have that hot bubble bath now and do the old facial to stop the wrinkles creeping in. I will be happy with a 10-12 lol obviously more the 10. I spent some time in a shop the other day and looked at all the size 10's with envious eyes, but knowing that some day soon I will be buying them!!!.
