HotMamas - ExerSazzing ourselves HOT

[FjorGyngleBells]

Another thread!

Well done on the loss Fjorn, I dare not brave the scales . I have been much better, but less exercise due to sodding shin and more food/drink than on my very strict diet.

However, i did 1.5k jog run, 1hr circuits and 10 mins powerplate this morning, so something at least. Pilates tomorrow and circuits again Friday. I really want some less erratic weather so I can do school walks again as they make a big difference i think.

How about Bootcamp from Monday MyChild/Fjorn with FF'ing and 4xExersazz?

I am doing my own sort of bootcamp with low carbing, although still drinking loads of tea/coffee, but it's deffo working as am down another 2 this morning! Still up but only +4.5 on pre-Easter so feeling v v happy with that considering the amount of cake and wine I scoffed

octo that sounds like LOADS of exercise to me! Enjoy your pilates today, I am off for a walk to the shops!

The exercise was good Fjorn, but i ended up on wine and chocolate last night

Pilates was lovely this morning and i am off to get my haircut later so hopefully that will give me the push to focus my appearance/weight a bit more!

Pub tonight though.

I didn't think you even liked chocolate!

Same as yesterday so -3.25 on the week. Not bad considering the giving-up-smoking but still much carb-avoidance to be done before I am thin enough.

Guess I am weighing on my own today if octo's been to the pub

Feeling abandoned I have just eaten a Boost bar 34.5g of carbs but it was lovely Just need to avoid the biscuit tin for the rest of the day now...

1lb off today- takes me to 10.1. Someone commented on my slim arms on the school run this morning.... Have put some dumbbells in the lounge so every time I see them i do 20 bicep curls or tricep curls.
On a really positive note- my leg feels soo much better- I am planning a run this weekend. I had a Physio session last night where he really massaged it hard, seems to have worked. That's 4 weeks without a run. Did 45k on the bike today but had a big fall off- huge bruise on other leg now.
Keep goingon the non smoking- you know it's worth it and the weight will come off... Cancer not so easy to get rid of....
Have a lovely weekend x

Hurrah for slim arms dig hope you managed a run at the weekend too!

Not too bad a weekend, was +2 this morning so better than some Mondays! Last night was a nightmare though, next-door neighbours decided that 12.30am was a good time to start partying woke me and DD and despite repeated requests didn't stop till 2am So am a bit tired today! All quiet there at the moment so fingers crossed...

Having quite a bad time at the moment. Food/exercise the least of my problems. Wish I could throw myself away and start again.

Oh no, MyChild that sounds pants . Sorry to hear things are crap. Please feel free to unload/rant on here if it helps

I am in freefall at the moment, hence my absence

Well done Fjorn. Boo to feckin inconsiderate neighbours. Have you thought of moving?

Back from Egypt, disaster of a holiday once again due to my dad [sigh], not looked at scales but hoping that a dodgy tum throughout holiday has hopefully kept the worst at bay.

Back to low carbing today...

Well done on the continued no smoking fjorny, I reckon I smoked enough for both of us this last week due to stress.... Hoping to follow in your footsteps v soon..

My child hope you are ok?

Octo good exercise last week, hoping that dds are back to normal, the weather improves so we can all get back on track!

Oh sounds like we all need a hug and a chocolate cake. Leg stll sore but am managing 2k runs which makes me feel bad considering I was running 10k no problems 5 weeks ago.
Did my first "brick" training today- 20k cycle in 40 mins- followed by 2.5k run in 10. Just need to up th run to 5 k. Triathlon in 4 weeks.
Hop
e you are all ok x

Gosh we are all in the wars aren't we! Hope everyone feels better and back in the health vibe soon.

Sadly I would like to admit that giving up smoking is hard enough, but giving up smoking + being v tired + fecking PMT is very very bad . Have managed to avoid the cigs somehow but the biscuit tin is taking a bit lot of a hammering today

Afternoon all

Still no let up here in the freefall (albeit i have curbed it somewhat) and have done 1.5k run, 1hr circuits 15 mins powerplate/TRX.

Clothes still feel fine so i am kidding myself that all is ok

I am planning on braving the scales tomorrow.........

Omfg

10.3

Not going to even try to understand that. So I shall take it at face value and

The smile will probably be wiped off next week when the delayed gain kicks in......

Well done on such a small + octo !

I am spiralling upwards instead and tomorrow's weigh is going to be very and Have had brioche and chocolate spread sandwich for breakfast after accidentally drinking too many G&T last night... OH well, it's a new month next week and think I might actually set myself an exercise challenge as well as getting properly back on the low carb wagon.

At least I have the smoking thing as an excuse, not dying of cancer had better be worth it

Wow well done Octo

I still haven't been back to the gym and eating pure junk

Well done on the continued no smoking fjorny

Still on 10.3

Circuits this morning and I am going to try and motivate myself to do a gym class this weekend, more to try and keep the eating in check than for exercise! When I am being v good exercise wise I tend to eat better too.

How is everyone else today? My shin is still playing up but oddly circuits seem to be ok for it

Well done octo!

I am +4 on last Friday , been another horrific week, hoping it's the carbs + period bloating but is more likely to be actual fat deposits going by the size of my belly. No chance of goodness today either, max 3 hours sleep thanks to my fucking arsehole pig ignorant unsociable neighbours who were still partying when we gave in and got up at 6.20am so have been eating a few biscuits today...

Anyone want to buy a house??? It's lovely

Oh boo Fjorn

I know my +3.5 is a 'permanent' gain but I will be happy if I can just stop it creeping up any further.

1k run, mad pyramid circuits (200+ box jumps) and then took dd2 swimming. Knackered.com!

How can we rein ourselves in? I just have zero motivation and can't be bothered. I've not been running since before the Easter hols and have already decided I'm not doing my 10K.

Think of bikinis is a good way to rein it in :)
Oh I think I have a stress fracture- I still can't weight bear on leg- all muscle pain is gone, but running still painful - only managed 2k today. Am thinking I may try to swap my triathlon for a later one- it's part of a series of 3- the last one is in September. Don't want o force myself through itvand endupbwriting off whole summer. Plus cardiowise I know I am fit enough and want o enjoy it.rather than run in pain.
Food wise not oo bad- alcohol heavy though x
Tomorrows another week. Let's go for a loss.

Fresh week fresh start

Determined to either go to gym or shred. Going to take some measurements and see if toning is the way to go!

Also to try and eat good wholesome foods and no junk!

What's everyone else's plans?

Quick trip to gym as starting again, 20 mins on stepper interval.. 45 sec level 20, 15 secs level 7... Sweated buckets, and 5 mins on powerplate.

Not a lot but pleased its a start back

Yay for getting back to the gym loti

I am on day 2 of back to low-carbing, not too bad so far but have Mr Kipling Angel cake in my bag so going to have to resist that... at work which feels v weird on a Tuesday; came in on the train so had a good walk already and another one planned later to get home again.

Good walking fjorny and resist resist

Did level 3 of shred, it is such a killer, sweated buckets , if I did that a couple of times a week I would be fit as anything!! Have already drank 1lr of water!!
