HotMamas - Five years on, are we fit or are we fat???

[FjorGynAndHotWater]

New thread, this one WILL work!!!!

0.5 off to 10.7.5 - still glad it doesn't seem to be piling back on.

A bit cheaty as the last few weeks have been a bit rubbish with pretty much evens since mid oct but trying to motivate myself with the longer term trend.....

Thurs 5th sept - 11.4
Thurs 26 Sept - 10.13.0
Thurs 17 Oct - 10.10.25
Thurs 5 December - 10.7.5

So 9.5lbs off since September, which is never going to win me any weight loss speed prizes . Just hope I can keep it going....

Wow you're doing really well Sazz, obviously no for you!

I am back up 0.75 to 12 2.75 after a couple of biscuits (but not too many) and an opposite to your tummy trouble... Hoping my fasting today will do a bit of good and I can report a minus something tomorrow.

Thanks Fjorn. Going for a final push before Xmas. I was going to shred tonight as definitely need some arm toning, but the coach from the panto was an hour late back so I lost moment

Um after standing round in the cold waiting.

I did tromp round town at lunchtime so a bit of exercise has been taken.

0.5 off to 10.7 which is my upper end target. Yay!

That's 3.25 off for the week. Not sure whether abstemious Friday tri on sat or tummy bug helped there. Will try for another good Friday......

That's fantastic Sazz, very well done

I only managed 0.5 off for the week to 12 1.5, it'll do and better than going up! Really hope I can get two more off in next two weeks, I will have to try a couple of good Fridays myself

A loss is a loss Fjorn!

Hoping to get to the gym tomorrow which usually helps reduce my 'oh fuck it' mentality which takes over at weekends......

10.10.1

My fitbit flex arrived last night so been wearing it all day. So far have done 9600 steps (quite a lot of them just walking round the house with cranky DD)

Have been randomly tracking on mfp again. Need to keep it up. Just inhaled a mince pie though as really crave sugar when DD is being cranky.

Is it 10,000 a day recommended Helga?

Done ok-ish today. No blow outs (or random inhaling )

I really, really need to shred over the next 2 weeks. Arms are dreadful

+1 this morning so not too bad

Gym and Pilates planned this morning so hopefully will stay broadly on the straight and narrow.

2.5k run
3.5k bike
This was a meant to be a bit of cardio before Pilates, but went to the studio an it was Zumba. Gah! So went back to gym and did:
0.8k stepper
2.5k rowing
10 mins powerplate

500 calories all in!

Now off to take girls swimming

-0.5 to 10.7.5

Friends over for dinner later. Should be ok up until then

May try and do a cheeky shred before then

Oops

+2.5 for the weekend. Back to it today. Busy week here so not sure if I'll fit much exercise in but will try.

Lol I out-oops you with +5.5 but I am absoulutely riddled with a hideous cold and have been consoling myself with carbs all weekend. Still sneezing today but scales have scared me into knocking it off and back to healthy ways...

Fjorny you will get back on track

Well done on last week loss sp and I am sure today's weigh in is just from yest and will magically disappear!

Just over 2 weeks til Xmas so I am going to try and eat healthily til then!

Oh no, sorry to hear you are poorly Fjorn . I have been gargling tcp to ward of horrors.

Lovely to see you LOTI - I wonder if there will be an office biscuit tin the size of Fjorny's to tempt you! Have a brilliant day

-1 to 10.8.5

2.5 mile walk
Level 1 shred with weights

Hope your first day has gone well Loti and your new-job-nerves knocked off a lb or two

Sazz you put me to shame with all your exercise, well done matey!

I was down a measly 1 to 12 6 this morning, been fasting and weeing , just a small bowl of chilli with cauliflower rice for tea. Hungry now so going to bed and hoping for a few more off in the morning...

Well my extra exercise chucked in did nowt as v good with food yesterday and down a measly 0.25lb.

Circuits today bu heel really hurting again with new trainers/insole combo

How are you feeling Fjorn? Has the cold shifted?

Out for dinner tonight, I'll try to make good food choices......

Slowly slowly SP

Great first day but also seem to be full of cold!

Out tonight and tomorrow night

Have fun out Loti! Hope your cold disappears quickly

Sazz sorry to hear your foot is still dodgy hope you didn't console yourself with too much cheese last night...

Managed 3 off yesterday to 12 3, still 1.5 to go to break even. Trying really hard to keep away from the biscuit tin today .

No cheese yesterday Fjorn - I was very good hence surprise over small loss. Well done on your 3 off, that's brilliant

1.5k run, 1hr circuits, 10 mins powerplate. Wore old trainers and foot/shin not too sore yet

Dinner choices ok with only a few chips and one glass of red to scupper total healthy eating...

+1.25 to 10.9.5 which is annoying but hopefully temporary.

AF arrived today
