i'm watching the biggest loser. I know this is a bit off topic, but half the contestants had to row. Thats fine, but the ppl were sunburnt ! How irresponsible that Biggest Loser to not offer sunscreen. They may have had it there, but the sunburn ... Oh dear.
Good on them for knocking back the food! My only issuse with that was, food wastage. There are hungry ppl out there. Ppl living on food parcels week to week.
I had a bad day today, food wise. Didn't eat breaky(had a curly wurly - 2.5 pts) but a pub lunch. It was a steak sandwich with chips. With what info i was armed with, it still ended up being huge in pts. At least it was filling enough that im not hungry for dinner. 2.5pts over today, but had squirrelled away 1.5 from yesterday. So, not too bad. Looking forward to weigh in on wednesday! Im gonna buy the shopping and eating out guide so im more informed - especially when we leave for sydney thursday.
I love the biggest loser too, even though the program they keep to is completely unrealistic for real life. It is inspirational, makes me want to get moving.
Well teething is over for the moment and I actually got 7 hrs sleep last night, YAY! I'm am writing out an exercise program for the week and I intend to stick to it. I'm full of motivation to get myself back on track.
Ali, that's great that you got to have that talk, yay for the ed. dept taking that step. I so agree with the exercise in the morning. If I haven't done anything by 10am, I'm less likely to.
Dang I missed the biggest loser! I was outside doing some gardening before it got too dark! I guess that counts as some light exercise then Did about 25 minutes on my elliptical trainer this morning and it was awesome. I love that feeling you get when you've had a good workout and you're hot and sweaty and feel energised
ATM am caving and made that 5 minute chocolate mug cake that was in another thread It is yum and I am sharing it with DP
Lucy I'm another one that cried watching the biggest loser.
Hoody I made that not potato that you put up the other week and all I can say is yummmmy.
I've had a bad day, had a late breakfast and then no lunch and late dinner. But I did go for a walk so am happy with that, really hoping that I lose something this week otherwise I'm going to be very disappointed.
I went out on Saturday night and drank too much (again ) and was craving a meat pie after that so I indulged a little!! Went for a big walk yesterday but I think I have pulled my hamstring so I have to slow down a bit.
I have a resistance training band which I could use - does anyone else do this? What are some good exercises?
Amy, ah well, one meat pie isn't going to hurt too much! I bet it was good. I haven't had one in years. Love the taste of them! Everyone is doing well except me! HAHAHA, I've been drinking too much myself, not getting drunk, just having two glasses instead of one every night!
I guess that's a bonus to not being a big drinker, don't have to worry about the calories. Though I do look forward to being able to have a more than a sip without planning feed times.
Don't know how you girls are coping in the heat wave, it's been really muggy here and it's horrible. Laranna you did well doing some gardening in it, I was inside struggling to get the ironing done
I was going to ask how people are going in the heatwave. I have adoped a "grin and bear it" attitude and I've been continuing my walks regardless. I find that I sweat a lot more but that isn't so bad because when I'm jogging it actually keeps me semi-cool. The only downfall is by the time I'm an hour into my walk my bottle of water is warm - bleh.
I don't leave the house until about 8ish and by the time I get home it's just on nightfall. It's still really hot but without the blistering sun it is bearable.
