Rach's Weight Loss Diary

[Twiggy]

Morning Rach

Well done on an hour of fitness coach ... I'm going to do 30 mins later ... I'm scared Maya's going to recommend Cardio ... I may have to ignore her or I'll seriously be dead

I really couldn't do your job ... dealing with 'the public' ... I'd end up killing someone .. it's bad enough dealing with the people I do at work, but at last they have to have some manners

Hope you have a good day and Maya goes easy on you today!!

sorry work is a bit pants at the moment, will you carry on when you start your course in september?

Hey chook

Sorry you're having a crappy time with work! You seem to run round like a headless chicken! Don't worry about the points, I'm sure you'll be burning them and more off with the amount of work and exercise you are doing! I put my workout DVD on and it wasn't quite what I expected so not sure I'll be doing it again, just aswell it was only £3!

Chin up chicken, have a lovely day in the sunshine (it's cloudy here!) and enjoy your day off!!

dont worry about the one arm sun tan ( unless its sore of course , then worry by all means) when i was just out shopping saw a gilr with two tone legs,really white appart from the red stripe right down the front of each,looked all the worse cos she has a short white skirt on which really emphasised it.poor girl

I had an identical customer jane with serious burnt legs,red raw on the front & illuminous white on the back! She had been to primary care & they said she had to stay out of the sun for 4 months cos the burn was deep..she still had a bl**dy mini skirt on tho!! BARMY!!

Hi Rach,

Ha - that's what I did last weekend when I fell asleep in the sun! BUT I wore trousers to keep my shiny red shins away - didn't want to scare people!

Anyway - hope work is going better now, and you have a great weekend.

Hi hunny, just popping in to check up on you - so glad you had a lovely time walking and relaxing; so deserved! Hope your arm isnt too painful - aloe vera or lavender are both good for sunburn. Take care angel xxx

read on my fitness coach last night that apparently eating more low fat dairy products like milk and yoghurt can lower your cortisol levels, which is a hormone responsible for directing fat to your stomach.. interesting thought, and it will be interesting to see if i lose much off my stomach over the next few weeks - it would certainly seem to fit, as i have always carried weight mainly around my middle, and before WW i never really ate any dairy apart from cheese - i used to always have toast for breakfast.. 3 or 4 slices of it too bad rach!
