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.
Captain - yeah the weather's been yuk here, but I did the gardening at 7:30pm (yay for daylight saving) and it wasn't tooo bad, much better than the middle of the day. You'll LOVE the cross trainer! I have one and it's great, easy to use, low impact and you can get a really good workout all over.
I'm about to head out for a walk before it gets too hot (38 degrees today!), need to return some books to the library.
I have been walking first thing, at about 6am. And on Mondays and Weds my training is mostly in airconditioning......but it is hard........having done 12 months of exercise, I reckon winter is heaps easier, even the rain is better than the heat, for me.
