[FjorGynAndHotWater]

New thread, this one WILL work!!!!

Arrghhh too busy to shred today but I managed a brisk walk and very small run ie from my friend's house home as it was chucking it down so the run was less than 1/2 mike and I was soo out of breathe lol

Feeling very bleugh after the weekend - tried on a dress which fitted beautifully before Xmas which is now tight. Arrrggghhh

Day started well. Then had a jam doughnut. Oops.

Week not going quite as well as hoped, Sunday and Monday off the booze but kids went to MIL's for a sleepover on Tuesday so dh and I celebrated with beer and burgers Took advantage of the peace yesterday and spent several hours manhandling weeds in the front garden so had wine and pizza for a treat... Stiff as a board today! And having one last try at a fasting day before the weekend. Weight hovering around 12 7.5, could be better but could be worse I suppose. Will not take that as an excuse to stuff self with cake today

12 6 today, oops! Off ice skating

12 12 today. Fucking hell what is wrong with me???? Why can't I leave crappy food alone????

Doing fasting penance today and tomorrow, will see how much damage that can undo .

Hope your half terms were less damaging than mine!

Nope. 11.4
Down to 2 outfits which fit for work.
No fast today due to catered meeting.
Full of good intentions but no follow through

No more needs to be said!

Well, relieved it's not just me

Been goodish today, but not much movement on scale yet. Try again tomorrow, back to work which helps in one way but will have to confess massive holiday gain to work fat club too

3.5 off to 12 8.5. Hoping for that much off again today! Unlikely as first day post-binge usually the best but we'll see. No idea why I do this to myself but all post- Christmas loss undone again. FFS.

4 off here to 11. Just off out for a walk/run

c.6.5k walk/run. I really enjoyed it other than the torrential rain, hail and wobbly thighs

I need to bottle the feeling and make sure I do it more regularly.

Food ok so far

How do you two lose so much overnight

There's plenty to lose! Plus eating crap when you haven't been doing so leads to lots of water retention hence the big 'gain' followed by the big 'loss'

Really loti you should be asking how on earth I managed to put on 6lb in 48 hours in the first place! Fasting went pretty well apart from some chocolate after tea but nothing else bad. Hope to be down a couple more tomorrow.

Sounds like you has a good run sazz and a nice pint hope you get properly back in the swing of exercise now

Lol ah I see ladies :-) my two love watching man v food at the moment and often the challenges involving eating 5+ lbs of food, I asked dh if that meant a 5+lbs weight gain instantly and he said yep

I think that is probably why I constantly hover around the same I just seems to eat the same food same quantities every day some days slight more others slightly less...

I need bingo's motivation to exercise everything is wobbly but just cba

Still at 11 but felt SO much better after run yesterday. 1k run, 1hr circuits, 10 mins powerplate.

Buzzing now

Just need to keep it up. Just need to keep it up. Just need to keep it up.......

LOTI I have been so bad recently; you are being way too kind with your comments!

Another 2.5 off to 12 6 this morning. Have had flapjack for pud today though so not expecting much / owt off in the morning, fasting tomorrow so will see what Friday brings...

1 off to 10.13 but I may have had a glass of vino last night...

Just stay away from tonight before weigh in everyone

Bingo well done you seem to have got most of your excess gain off again ,. I was stuck at 12 6 today but been pretty good fasting-wise today so should / hope to be down a couple tomorrow and a bit nearer where I was.

Good work this week Fjorn. Twas pub night tonight and I was driving so not too bad. I appear to be having another period and I'm sure my last one was only about 2 weeks ago

Bingo that is not great for you. Fingers crossed the scales will be good for you.

Fjorny I am sure you were up all night weeing and the scales also look good for you

I need to get my s**t together, I am so busy during the day that never get chance to eat properly and then stuff myself silly at night time, so I need to try and eat better during the day... Must listen to myself lol

12 4 today which sounds good when I was 12 12 on Monday, but still means that I am up 3 on two weeks ago despite being pretty good this week. My resolution for next few weeks is to stop snacking as think I shovel in LOADS of calories that way

Bingo you need to heed the snacking too

Bingo well at least you will have some pre-period bloating to lose...

Still at 11 on Fri

Walked/ran 6k up hills and through mud today

40 minute walk this am and two school runs to do today as working from home. Not motivated in the slightest but needs must!
