Is anyone feeling all MOTIVATED on this lovely sunny MONDAY

[StealthPolarBear]

I am :o

[StealthPolarBear]

just me then :o

[ThePowerOfMe]

I was but I've just had a couple of choc chip cookies.
Please tell me that's not too bad if its the only bad thing I've eaten today?
I can go back to being motivated then.

[StealthPolarBear]

Definitely not! If you have a decent meal you'll be fine.
I have decided to have a day off - motivation didn't last long :o But it will be one day and straight back on it tomorrow

[Joules68]

Just made chicken stir fry with rice noodles

May make a green juice later

Ran Milton Keynes half marathon this morning so did take on a bit of sugar, but it's left me motivated to keep eating right.

[StealthPolarBear]

That sounds very healthy!
Ive been doing shred and eating well all week (and the week before with the weekend off :() so don't feel too bad about having a day off today.

Oh great, I've killed the thread!

It's been months since I even looked at the spreadsheet and I've lost 2 whole lb.

Can I come back please?!

[StealthPolarBear]

:)
Problem is I can't remember who you were - were you the original MMer?
I had a day off yesterday and am nicely back on it today. Looking forward to my salad

[ToeFluff]

Yeah 'twas me, cept I've name changed though I think I did it at the beginning of the last thread as it's toe on the ss.

Evening anyway!

[StealthPolarBear]

Evening :o
Have you been dieting in those 2 months?
I was awful until the end of april then something clickedand mmotivation has not been an b issue since. Wish I understood why.

[ToeFluff]

Err sort of! It was sort of one week on and one week off, I've moved house and changed jobs since I left the thread and everything has settled down and I'm feeling motivated to get back to trying again properly.

So what have I missed? I want to read the rest of the previous one but it feels like I'm snooping so I haven't!

[StealthPolarBear]

Ive not been on it for ages which is why I started this one, missing everyone. :(
How are new house anf job?

[ToeFluff]

I've gone from a flat to a house and it's soo nice! Still Renting sadly but I have a garden! I have a window in my bathroom! Wooooo!

Job isn't so much fun, was nice the first 2 weeks but there is so much bitchiness and backstabbing, I'm thinking of looking again as I really don't do well in awkward situations!

Anything new with u? Are u calorie counting? I can't remember!

Was meant to have done squats today but I haven't got the energy, I wonder if those ab belt things work!?

[InMySpareTime]

I'm here
I went shopping today. I hate shopping but I needed new clothes as my old clothes hang off me.
Today's NSV was asking the shop assistant in the changing room to fetch me a smaller size of shorts as the 8 was too big! A vast improvement on my pre-motivational changing room experiences of swapping size 18s for larger sizes.

[ToeFluff]

Wow! I'm slightly jealous that's a fantastic nsv! Well done!

Yes I used to be MilkshakeMaker but wanted something that wasn't to do with food!

Having a good day today, I've lost that crave feeling for junk food so finding it easy to make the right choices, might be the holiday that's looming round the corner!

How has everyone's day been today?

[Reastie]

Hellooooooo ( please don't let me kill the thread please don't let me kill the thread )

IMST you haven't lost MORE weight to need more clothes have you? There's nothing of you already . Good grief size SIX!!!!

Having IBS issues for a week now which is not helping the cause of WL. Am doing T25 most days though.

[StealthPolarBear]

[StealthPolarBear]

:o

Sorry to hear about the IBS reastie :( What is T25?
Milkshake Maker that's it! I knew it was MM but got confused with motivational Monday!
eighty, you sound like you're doing well, keep it up.
A less motivated day here, but still OK. As long as I can make it to bedtime without bingeing.

[InMySpareTime]

Reastie, hope you feel better soon.
No, I've not lost any more weight, but I've been walking and cycling a lot so toned up my lower half lately.
I mostly went shopping because I won some vouchers ages ago and DH took a day off to take me to the Trafford Centre and spend them.
I cleared out my big clothes over Lent, so my cupboards were looking quite bare.
I bought 3 dresses, 5 tops and some tights, and still had vouchers left, but I couldn't shop any more.

[Reastie]

here stealth. It's really good. Haven't lost any weight since christmas (but that's more to do with food than exercise). Am getting more toned though.

Thanks for sympathy with IBS, it's really getting me down, a whole week of tummy spasms on and off sometimes really bad so I just lie in bed , nearly stopped my plans for going to a dirty dancing sing a long showing at the week end but not quite

[Reastie]

Oooooohhhhh ,looky looky, the video is on the thread [proud] . Didn't know you could do that!

[ToeFluff]

waaaa my tax credits havn't been paid :(

[ToeFluff]

Stealth were u just nodding along with not a clue who I was - I must have looked a right weirdo!

Hope you are feeling better soon Reastie, do you not have any tablets for it? (I dont actually know how/if its treated). That work out looks intense!! go you!!!

Am ridiculously jealous now IMST!

ps tax creds sorted...phew!
