Have you stuck some sticky tape over the fraction part of your scales? Hmmm, good thinking...

LOL crispy you blind bugger Grin

I have been avoiding work looking back obver this thread and reading my posts from Nov/Dec when I managed to lose half a stone in a few weeks. (love the own-post-highlighting thingy) I was on my bike loads, sometimes doing 20+ miles a day, and doing mucho snow walking plus swerving biscuits again so no wonder it worked. Hoping the target of 250 miles by the end of the month will spur me on to a similar feat of cycling endurance.

loti you mentaller for 6.30am shredding Shock Glad to hear your loss of last week hasn't come back Smile

I have done 14 miles tonight, yay, feeling the vibe again at last. 134/250. Am going to do at least 16 tomorrow to get to 150. There is no way I can do this by food as am too greedy so got to really up the exercise. Off to eat cheesy garlic chicken and drink wine now...

luckoftheirish · 20/02/2011 10:25

FjorgynAndHotWater · 20/02/2011 19:48

Wow loti that's brilliant! I never managed more than about 4 days in a row shredding, you will have an iron body v soon Grin

I did 16 miles Shock, yay Grin so am 162/250. We went for a lovely walk this afternoon too, but good work undone by ice cream, two muffins and roast chicken Blush Still, last week I did the scoffing without the extra biking so this is a definite improvement Grin

CrispyTheCrisp · 20/02/2011 22:09

You two are amazing. Keep up the good work. There is reason for radio silence on exercise reports here Biscuit

luckoftheirish · 21/02/2011 08:45

Hos amazing amazing amazing biking go girl Grin

FjorgynAndHotWater · 21/02/2011 10:02

Never mind crispy, just start again today. I'm sure that running around after two DDs for a whole week will urn a few calories.

loti that goes for you too, no need to do two exercise dvds today!

I am up two on Friday which is not bad considering the food & drink that's been shovelled in. Hoping the lots of biking will undo the damage...

luckoftheirish · 21/02/2011 11:35

Another 12 here so done my 4 exersazzes already Shock and am 174/250. No mention of the cheese I have eaten today though BlushBlushBlush

OP posts:

luckoftheirish · 22/02/2011 07:31

shredded 8/30 at 6.30am Shock i am mad HmmGrin

CrispyTheCrisp · 22/02/2011 07:51

Woah, you two! I can't keep up. Only pilates for me yesterday and nothing whilst am in London. Thurs will have to get my arse back into gear. If I can be good food wise, it'll be ok, but I suspect i will go out tonight with work so all bets are off due to my crap levels of self control Hmm

luckoftheirish · 22/02/2011 08:15

Crisp well done on your pilates and i am sure there will be mucho walking around london town Smile

luckoftheirish · 22/02/2011 10:33

FjorgynAndHotWater · 22/02/2011 21:44

Yes loti you are mad Shock

We went swimming today which was mucho fun although not really much exercise, and the custard doughnut afterwards was probably outside the calorie allowance, but it was v yummy Grin

Have done 16 miles tonight - 190/250 so nearly there Shock May not get much chance tomorrow as friends coming over about 11am and staying over but will try and do a few miles first thing.
