Brilliant losses everyone! I've just found out that I've got ofsted coming to my house on Tuesday so I'm super nervous and am having resist the urge to comfort eat :S Stayed strong so far!!! Well done Angela on your run - are you using Couch to 5K? That's the one I'm using and I love it!

Well girls - I am absolutely gobsmacked. I was convinced that I had put on weight, particularly as I hadn't weighed in last week - but I lost 6 pounds over the 2 weeks!!! I am so chuffed! I was considering lowering my goal as it seems unrealistic but am going to leave it as it now gives me an achievable - although tough - target to get to.

Liz - I am following a beiginners 5k schedule which I got from Runners World - I am not a runner but found that as my work days change from week to week I found it hard to commit to a fitness class - which I do enjoy more unfortunately - so I can go out & run as and when I get a bit of free time. I have never got quite up to the 5k in the past as life takes over normally in form of a school holiday & my running goes out the window but there is a regular 5k run every saturday morning & would love to be able to achieve that this year. Was quite pleased yesterday as I went back to the beginning & found it quite easy. Do you run?
With regards to your Ofsted - a little stress normally does wonders for weight loss in my book!!!! Good luck x

Here's to a good weekend everybody,

Angela xx

Welcome all! Angela - I started the couch to 5k programme from the nhs website in december and it's brilliant! It's free and it's all planned out for you, starting small with 60 second runs and 90 second walks and builds you up. I love it :) I take my daughter out in the running buggy and she loves it too!

3.5 lb off for me this week, woo hoo! Ofsted tomorrow, super super nervous but so far haven't been tempted too much to eat bad things. Mind you, if it goes well, I might feel like celebrating and if it goes badly, commiserating! We'll see!

Hmm slight blip...........the 6 nations happened.....I had beer.............Wales lost it was a sad time.........dreading the scales this week! I tried to have vodka and diet coke but it was soooo expensive.
 
I had a few days in cramps and radiating back pain until the point I went into to hospital for some tests - the pain was ugh, made myself through up a few times because I was worried that food was causing it and healthy food was very unappealing through it all. With all that in mind I am okay with my +1lbs gain this week (I had SotM last week with 3 weeks of 3lbs/3.5lbs. losses in January). That's 4 weeks to lose 12.5lbs, will give it a go!! :)

Wow Laura! What an amazing loss in one week! Well done!
 
crikey! Ok I feel slightly guilty now for my lager and lime (must do better!), these massive losses are putting my little losses to shame!
