Evening ladies - well you have all been spared from the HUUUGE post i wrote this afternoon and promptly lost - NOT HAPPY!! Grrr...so couldnt get back on again for a while.....
Anyway, well done to everyone for their results, more than anything just that we are all on/back on the bandwagon and thinking about improving our health- yay for us!!!!
AFM i have lost 3kg this week which i am really pleased with but not overly surprised as i know my body so well. There was discussion re someone losing 3 kg in a week earlier, having just done it i guess i can only say it's a reminder of how differently everyones body works. For me, i had put on 15 kg very quickly (3mths) so the quicker i put it on the quicker i seem to lose it when i try (just as you can put it back on quickly if you lose it quickly) Also, i have a lot to lose (was 94kg, now 91kg, goal is 73kg, charts would prolly tell me to get to 66kg) Plus, i think i hold a lot of fluid when diet high salt from take aways etc... - if i just eat well (no junk) i lose the first few kg's v.quickly. This will slow down to a seemingly healthier half to one kilo per week in a couple of weeks probably. Also depends a lot with me how much social eating i have on, this is my biggest challenge.
Next weeks aims - drink more water, more walking, continue to eat well. Main challenge will be i am TTC#1 and am on CD 23 of 27 day cycle so will be facing a BFP () or PMT including grumpiness and chocolate cravings and disappointment of AF arriving. Being an emotional eater i need to try and handle celebration or commiseration a little more carefully than usual!!!!!
Good luck to everyone for next week!!!! Congrats also for the great support we have been for each other
Still didn't get a tape measure and I wish I had done measurements weeks ago now because I can already SEE a difference!!!
I went for a HUGE, HOT walk last night followed by more sqats, lunges and sit ups (only 25 each this time). I worked up such a huge sweat and this morning I was too excited NOT to weigh myself again (to see the difference from yesterday) and I lost another 300g . OMG!
Amy well done. But I think with this challenge you just need to weigh yourself once a week and give those stats to Lucy. But if you want to weigh yourself every day then that's up to you! I find it hard too but your weight can fluctuate daily I think.
Bookstart is on at 10.30 this morning, but its miserable (SUNSHINE Coast my BUTT) not raining... yet... its the kind of day where if i had washing I just wouldn't do it today... Don't have a weather cover for the pram... *sigh* Did I mention the weather HATES me!
Leasha, when it is not so nice outside I dance around the house or run up and down my stairs (I live in a townhouse) - are there any sorts of things like that you could do?
