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?
Mmm forgive me because I am in NSW so am not sure of the weather in QLD atm... is rain predicted? Can you maybe sling her down to the library and that way if the weather turns crap you can shield her... also great workout with the extra weight! or is it too far to carry her? Mmm that might be hard for the walk back... ok maybe I am not helping here!
I didn't do my measurements this week because I put on weight :
I am sodisappointed however trying not be disheartened. Iwill have to work harder to exercise this week. My healthy eating had been soooooooooo much better and it's only made me fatter.
*sigh*
Yeah im guessing it was my NYE and my night out... I drank waaayyyy too much and i know the sugar levels are ridiculous in what i was drinking.
I'm back to moving furniture and packing boxes now so just need to add some cycling and an outside walk i guess
eta: that sounds wrong, i mean i have to remember to increase the cycling and walking.
Cookiemonster, the moving etc will definitely be a good work out!
Leasha, are you going to go for your walk? I just re-read my post and I sound a bit like a cow... that was not how I intended it but lol it is hard trying to provide ideas when we are so far away from each other... hope I didn't offend
Just went for a 75 minute walk and it is so humid today! Man I'm stuffed!
I have done 7.5hours of walking this week so far (since Saturday). I struggled with the walking today though, I feel fatigued.
Do we look in another thread for the results or will the CM's lost tickers be placed on here? Just not sure.
