Grab Your Tuna!

Latecomer to the party... May I join, too? Have just read the previous thread (most of) and this one and have thrown aside the Lindt Easter bunny and ordered the DVD. Mind if I stick around?

Nice to see you back Stevie, my ears are pricking up at the mention of ponies, as I have horses too. Hope the vet visit went well, and it's nothing too serious?

Bugger. Just could NOT get out of bed this morning!

Tomorrow...definitely tomorrow.

Welcome back stevie! Have you found any solution to pony problem?

Had a good sweaty workout this morning but was short of breath doing some curtsy lumges half way through, so I stopped for a bit and it became a two-parter.

I'm still overweight bit bit by bit there are tiny changes...most of them good!

Welcome back stevie I do want to thank you for giving me some motivation to get restarted with regards exercising.

Warm up, UFBurner, fitness challenge, tone and sculpt, and some stretch all done.

Yay, Buzz is back as well!

I've not done much today other than store links to favourite workouts without dumbells in a folder (for holidays) and make new links on my phone for the ones I want to try out over the next few weeks.

I have been skiving off too due to health issues. Will try and be back tomorrow.

I looked back and it hasn't even been 2 weeks yet (in my not-good-at-counting world) so not that long really, it just seems longer because we've missed you every day!

Moving is so difficult and there is so very much to do and think about. Life doesn't always give us a chance to give ourselves even 7 minutes. I had a very stressy Easter, and this thread has been a haven of positive encouragement. You made it that way, stevie, and I can't thank you enough.

Warm up, ultimate fat burner, box fit, advaced abs and some stretch all done.

Welcome back moody. I hope you don't find it too hard going tomorrow!

Hi all. Have been on holiday so done very little. A bit of swimming and that's all. Should be back to it on Tuesday.

I spoke to stevie on another thread and she's got a lot going on at the moment but she says she'll be back and is missing us!

Well done peace to keep at it when you aren't 100%. That truly shows you commitment to doing some sort of exercise.

Yes, I do hope that stevie returns. I have alot to thank her for, starting this thread got me motivated to get me exercising again and I feel a billion times better than what I did 4 or 5 weeks ago and I've returned to my first love of swimming. I was even discussing with DH the other morning how I could incorporate doing the dvd when I was holiday. We are going back to the same hotel as we did last year so he has told me of a good spot where I could take the portable dvd player and to take some weights out of the gym. If im not able to take the weights from the gym, I'll just use some 2 litre bottle filled with sand. I'll experiment at home first to see how much they weigh when filled with sand.

Hope stevie is ok. I think I saw her posting on another thread.
Maybe having difficulty posting. I know I've not been able to post on some of the MN threads. They just seem to freeze.

Feeling a bit better but tummy still hurts when I eat. I just did a few standing stretches and squats today.

Sorry ican should be can'tbelieve

Swimming for me today. I feel much fitter because I can do my front crawl sprints much more easily and I can get my breath back sufficiently in the 2 x 25m breaststrokes recovery swims.

ican yes, the evening is a killer for me too. I also have a target of my holiday abroad which is mid July. I'm 3lb down from where I started, but I would love to lose another 6-7lb and then see how I look and feel. I have to be careful because I get a xylophone chest if I lose too much, but that still leaves me with a fat/flabby lower stomach. I'm not aiming to be the body beautiful, just the best me.

Because I've been done some sort of exercise for a good few weeks now, it is now forming into a habit and I feel a bit odd if I don't get some structured movement into my day, if that makes sense?

I am still working on my eating to Velma. It is getting better. Evenings are the worst time for me.
I am doing three of the work outs at the mo but have issues with my ankles so can't do some of the workouts. I often end up doing the fat burner twice and the boxing one.
Peace you sound as if you are doing a similar amount of exercise to me. I am only on my second week and kind of have a 4 month plan

I am pretty sure if I only did 7 minutes of intense exercise 6 days a week and othwrwise had a sedentary lifestyle, eating a diet of take aways and processed meals, I'd see little difference at all.

I'm doing a 5 minute warm up, about 7-10 minutes of cardio/pilates then another 7-10 minutes of pilates/yoga or weights then 5 minutes cool down on most days. I'm seeing similar differences to velma. I'm using Fitness Blender, rather than Davina and from what I'm reading here, a similar amount of Davina 7 minute fit would have been just as effective. (My household just isn't set up for me using fitness DVDs).

Am not feeling well. Gave up yesterday due to chills and today just not feeling up to it yet.

Warm up, fitness challenge, ultimate fat burner, abs and some stretch all done.

cantbelieve I haven't seen significant results, but my eating is not yet totally under control. I am however more flexible, my core is much stronger as are my thighs and hips. My saddle bags aren't as big and my upper arms and thighs have more definition. I must confess, I am swimming also alongside doing the dvd and my swimming is quite intense.

Just wondering if anyone is getting results with 7 minute fit?

No davina today, but I have done a good and intense 30 minute swim. I'm now going to have some tea and toast and then some more writing.

The wall press ups are really good if you can't do a floor press up.

I hope everyone has a jice day in the sun. I'm not sure what I'll be doing this afternoon with DD.

Will (hopefully) be back into some sort of routine tomorrow.

Keep up the good work

DD tells me they are called 'wall press ups' after all that!
