Stuck to it like glue today.
And a HUGE NSV of a 5k in 22 mins. I had to actually lie on the floor immediately after but I did it!

BitOutOfPractice · 11/04/2017 05:16

Morning. Mega early work start today

Quim my feet need some serious work too.

Queenie that is amazing time. Well done

Morning all!

Crickey BOOP, that is an early start!

Haha I'm sure they won't mind Quim

I'm still plugging along here, didn't have a loss last week but AF is about to rear her ugly head so I'm hoping that is why. Anyway I managed a fast day yesterday, and am aiming for about 1200 calories today. I wanted to shred this morning but it would have meant getting up at stupid o'clock and I couldn't face it Blush

11.3 again, and on anit-biotics now too... yay... was good but not golden yesterday, need to get my head back in the zone!

10.7.75! Hurray! I think that's a stone off. I can't quite remember whether I started in January on 11.7.5 or 11.7.75, but either way, I'm counting it as my stone. I am so pleased! Long way to go yet but that's a respectable chunk gone. 10lbs more to be a healthy weight.

Best of Luck Boop 🌱

TVHubbyClaire · 11/04/2017 10:16

Good luck with your presentation BOOP and very well done Cheddar, you must be feeling very pleased today

My weigh in this morning put me back at 12st 11 1/2..............a big lunch coming up this weekend with no doubt lots of wine so i'm looking for a good few days before that.

Walked heaps on Sunday and was over my 10k steps by lunchtime but I need to get running to try and get off this circle of 12st 10 in the week and 12st 12 after weekend. its been like this for a few weeks now

I did have a nice NSV last night, DW picked up a slim fit size medium shirt yesterday which I would have never fitted into in January and it not only fitted but looked quite good......hope I dont burst a button when i wear it out to lunch on Sunday......Hmm

Have a class this evening with hot gym instructor. Grin

beforeihit30 · 11/04/2017 12:41

I both joined then disappeared and managed to gain weight Blush

As such now firmly back on the wagon as I can't gain any more - about 7lb gain since Jan (the wrong direction!).

So, FitBit on and calorie counting back. To start off with aiming for a fairly generic 1500 per day, as that usually works for me, and then will see how I go and whether I decide to go for a more specific Fitbit burn less 500 or something in that region.

Will try to check in here regularly.

beforeihit30 · 11/04/2017 12:43

Oh, and after a successful and committed start to 30 Day Shred managed to get carpal tunnel in one wrist... will continue with walking and try to find another way to get fitter and stronger.

BitOutOfPractice · 11/04/2017 12:48

Get you on your slim fit shirt TV Wink

Well done cheddar👏👏

HairsprayBabe · 11/04/2017 18:14

DP just bought me some creme egg biscuits to cheer me up just had two and now I want them all 😂 have banished myself from the kitchen now!

lastqueenofscotland · 11/04/2017 18:28

Hairspray hope you're feeling brighter soon!
Been good all day, going out for dinner but about to go spinning... so should negate some damage

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 11/04/2017 20:33

Mmm, creme egg biscuits sound yummy!

Golden day nailed. 1200 calories, 40 mins walk (20 to work and 20 back), plus Shred. Oh yeah!

FreeNiki · 11/04/2017 20:52

Mmmmm creme egg biscuits. Must get some.

Not very active today but 1467 calories so within my 1500 - at least I'm slowly on the right track...

poorpaws · 11/04/2017 22:20

Over 21,000 steps yesterday.

Lost 2 1/4 pounds this week taking me to 10 stone 12 1/2 And very importantly I'm back in the tens. I've been trying to reach the 10s for a long time. Thank you all for your help. Everyone seems to be doing well and being positive.

lastqueenofscotland · 12/04/2017 06:33

At the gym again for a class. Shattered... hoping I'll feel more awake after
