Chiefs Randalling on to svelteness

[Lizzylou]

Hola.
Thought we needed a new thread
Last day at work for me

Well done Bssh on only gaining 1lb holiday weight, am hoping to emulate this!

I've lost 5lb since last week :) I thought these jeans were feeling loser.
Only another 90lb to go...

Fantastic work, well done you!

Go Sunshine!
I am having a rest day exercise wise, run tomorrow morning.

Randall, you are gorgeous, truly. Being semi pissed suits you
Tea! You are injured, be kind to yourself, however the injury was sustained! You look amazing so just take a break, mend and recoup. And wire your jaws?

Can I ask a question? Could a 40 yr old wear a black lace top, fairly sheer, with just a black bra under? Or do I need some sort of vest? It's for a girls weekend away in 2 weeks, would be wearing with black jeans so the old tits or legs rule would not be broken? Don't want to be mutton, but also not look like a granny either.

Sunshine woohoo! Tea take it easy . Lizzy I wouldn't wear a vest, but as I'm very shy I'd personally stash a vest in my bag in case I chickened out (or get really pissed so I wouldn't care either way!).

I do think I will be v pissed Bssh!

Lizzy stop being a wuss! With all that toning and weight lifting you must be looking proper slinky. All firm and everything, I bet you don't even wobble.

Flaunt what you've got, you've worked hard enough to get it!

Ugh epic fail on the gym front. Fell asleep on the sofa and woke up too late to go. Must do better next time!

Lizzy another vote for flaunting it. Strongly believe its got nothing to do with age but how you look and feel. Judging by your exercise and food diary you must look and feel amazing, so you go girl!

Chiiiiiieeeefs, I may have been out and drunk 4 wines, 4 malibus (classy, me) and a couple of shots. And then eaten a Mexican bean wrap at the station on the way home. I may have done that instead of going to my shwimming lesson

I might catch up with my MFP diary tomorrow...

Welcome Sinshine and well done in the 5lb loss! I'm a bit too pissed to register much more

< This is me on codeine having managed 90 minutes on a hockey pitch. That is good enough for me to run for a couple of hours on Sunday.

Sunshine that is amazing. Well done Chief dude. I am WillStillNeedTeaAndGin.

Excellent maintaining Randall. Maintaining and Randalling. Just perfect. And you are right it is easier to do the pointy dance. There are pictures of me doing this too along with a very pointy elbowed Gay Gordon with my kilted brethren

Lizzy Now I may not be the person to ask on account of being 40 and happily wearing a yellow camisole top that one's nipples may be visible through. To be fair I didn't notice until DH pointed it out. He was vair disappointed when I reached for my matronly cardy. However .... so very yes to just the bra.... or if you get the fear I have a delicate yellow camisole you could borrow if you bend over in it your norks fall out.

Buzzy

Hurrah.

Now i'm fancying being posh and having a Malibu.

Woohoo, 1.8 lbs lost this week :)

Good Chiefing Bssh. Very well done.

bleeeeee... Not fun taking on the school and nursery run this morning (usually DH does it on a Friday but he's away with work, the swine).

Bssh that must be more than the holiday lbs now surely? Impressive work.

Lizzy go for the bra, defo.

Tea good to see you're back on your feet chief. DH has the same thing (although acquired in a more manly way - playing football rather than dancing in heels) and is desperately trying to get fit for Windsor half at the end of the month. You sounded so hard on yourself earlier pet, don't be! I'm a firm believer that you can have it all, but rarely all at the same time. So I've got a job and I exercise a bit, but barely see DH in the week, eat a bit too much easy crap and don't spend as much time with the kids as I'd like. While you're looking (and my big ole fat fingers are crossed that you find something) try not to beat yourself up - it is really not you. You are doing amazingly and achieving loads in so many areas of your life chief.

Well done Bssh

Tea, totally agree with Buzzy, who is very wise, you completely rock
Yellow isn't my colour, but I may try the camisole yet.

Tits out it is. Is Belfast ready?

Well done Bssh. Nothing off for me yet, but am a menstrual bloated hormone so not fussed. I feel trimmer and lighter so sticking to my plan.

Run done, shop done now quick shower and off to meet dh in the big city for bank appointment then red hot buffet. MFP may shout at me later

Hello all, thought I would catch up after huge Sunday dinner.... Resting the iPad on my gut..
yy lizzy def bra only, I always think its awful on those sort of nights if you feel even a tiny bit safe/mumsy so much better to go va va voom!
tea glad about the return to your excercise form, you can eat your cake in peace now, but even if you hadn't you are still v glam and gorgeous as we have all seen those photos!
Well done bssh! I have now lost 7 of the big 10 pate pounds as I have lovingly named them. Almost there...
Major randall on Friday night, think I ended up dancing round a living room at 1am. Wasn't a happy bunny yesterday, and may have had to stuff crisps and toast in a desperate bid to feel better. It's not big and it's not clever. When will I learn?
Mmm, Malibu, now that's a last from the past

Whoooooop Dinks that's an amazing loss of pate pounds. Well done. Love a good dance in the living room, you sound like a woman after my own heart.

bssh excellent loss on the top of brilliant, amazing loss. I continue to be impressed with your focus. You go girl.

Thank you Chiefs for the kind words. Tomorrow I gird myself for a continued job search. I seem to have two problems. Firstly, I'm trying to get a job local to me, I want to do a job that isn't all consuming but I'm being rejected for everything because I've got too much experience and I look too senior. I am going to talk to a few recruitment consultants tomorrow to see what they can do to assist. Secondly, if I do get through to interview and I come across a silly question I seem to be highlighting it rather than fudging my way through it.

Today I did not crap or pee myself in public though I did take the opportunity of a toilet at 9 miles. I did the Bristol Half. Managed it in 1.54.23 so very pleased because my ankle was sore for the first couple of miles, then I had trouble with my asthma and of course my bowels and bladder didn't really want to co-operate. So back to normal for me now. Back to chiefing, fasting, exercising. Whoooooooop. Until March when I'm going to do the Bath Half.

And in other news .... my DH got me a long pearl necklace for my birthday. I am having to practice saying this so when I'm asked by my parents I don't snigger like a 14 YO boy [oh to be a grown up emoticon].

Well done tea, sounds like a fab time to do a half plus the added bonus of no accidents along the way. You are a star!
Feet up now, maybe have a Gin or two

Amazing run, Tea. Truly fabulous. So proud of you for not soiling yourself as well.

Have done bodypump, went up in weights again. I may not be anle to wash my hair tomorrow

Hope everyone is good and doing ok

Well done Dude. I'll pop round and wash it for you Lizzy, ask you about where you're going at the weekend and about your holiday.

I think it was about 39 years since someone was proud of my ability to control my bodily functions. I feel strangely pleased. Thanks Chiefs.

Oooh, pearl necklace . Good luck with job hunt Tea. It makes such a difference getting a good recruitment consultant on your side.

Lizzy hurray for upping the weights! I'm seeing a PT tomorrow to check my form and teach me to properly deadlift, squat and press heavier weights. I really don't want to injure myself through lack of knowledge.

Wow, lots of chiefly action to catch up with!

Well done on the loss Bssh you are most definitely back on it!

Buzzy sound like you had my kind of night.

More weights for LizzyTheMachine, you defo need to be rocking the tits out look on your weekend away.

Excellent progress on the shedding of the Pâté Pounds Dinky, although I suspect they're not as much fun to lose as they were to gain . Why does good food have to be so bad for you

Tea a pearl necklace lucky you! Bloody well done on running the half marathon, and extra kudos for not crapping your pants too. I don't run. I don't think I've ever run. Is running fun? It doesn't look like fun. It's very good for you though isn't it. Maybe I should run. I have friends who run. They did the great north run on Sunday. It didn't look like fun.

I lost the thread after a few tough days with DD. weight is steady so at least I'm not piling it on with all the crap I eat while Bf'ing. Hope you're all doing well

Awesome time for the Bristol half tea!! I'm hoping to do it next year... I did GNR last year in 2:32 so I'm truly in awe of your time!!

Go Dinky, I feel your pain re pate and cheese weight hanging around, was fun though

First Metafit tonight in around 6 weeks. Nearly vommed, but didn't so all good.

Bodypump and weights must be working as 3 seperate people commented on my slimmer arms today Mind you, I was (am still in all honesty) bingowingtastic.
