It is a great prize Not l so want to do this again
You have done extremely well l am pleased for you lovely

Aww thank you! Feels nice to be in control a bit better, finished the day with fruit so that's good

You sound very positive not. Great going.

Yes em, crackers and crispies here too.

Sts today

I'm with you not, I want to look better. Savoury snacks and wine are my downfalls. Decided no more wine on 7/7 days, I will allow myself one boozy evening.

Barely 6000 steps yesterday and most of those during my HIIT zoom class. Today will be better, Bodypump this morning and then a run with DD lunchtime.

6/7, obviously!!

Sts this morning, down 1lb on last Friday, down 3.4 on Mondays bloat boat.
As usual, here's comes my danger days. I'll just have to dig a bit deeper. I'm due to do some sort of weights after I finish work, might treat myself to a bath before dinner. Make up a G&T without the G!

Haven’t weighed today as slept in and had to actually go into work today so was in a mad rush to get ready. Will weigh tomorrow. I’m so close to 65kg now - have decided not to drink tonight and have wine tomorrow instead. Need to go on bike after work as slept in too late to get a 6am cycle in. Hopefully being in work will get me my steps. I have ended up around 13,500 most days this week so need to up my game and try for the 15,000. Maybe a quick early morning walk before lessons.

13,500 is excellent gen, I found for a while pushing to 15,000 made me very hungry so I dropped back - managing it ok at the minute though. Nearly at 9,000 - flipping raging, trying again to get les Mills work for me, I'd love it but the TV I need to use won't let me cast to it - tbf it's not the tv it's my Apple TV and I'm not buying a newer in. I've taken the trial so I'll try a few other things in the 30 days. Itching to feel fit

Nothing but a crap eating day today sat on my ass trying to work and home school. Being shit at both

It's not easy at the moment, don't be too hard on yourself. I have family who are literally tearing their hair out with home schooling. Our world is tough enough right now - I don't think anyone expects us to replicate the whole school experience and especially trying to work too? Not possible.
Did a YouTube workout, stupid devices, stupid les mills 😡

I went sledging with the DC. Will finish today and begin again tomorrow

life don’t be too hard on yourself
I got into a stupid row with someone at work over a rule they were applying as if it were pre-pandemic days which makes no sense now we are in the situation we are currently in and they were just repeating the rule over and over and I lost my temper then walked away while they were still droning on talking and now I feel terrible and wish I had kept my cool 😭

Aww gen, I hate that feeling. I'm quite logical and also shockingly hot headed so I've been in that situation...felt & have said "you cannot do that, let it go"
Some people have to be heard, repeatedly. Deep breath, let it go - if things bother me dreadfully, I write it all down like I'm nearly doing a report, say how it made me feel etc. Just have to let it leave my head. Probably doesn't make sense but it helps me

They have not thought hence need to repeat the rule. Not your issue gen. I would have lost my temper too

Thanks not and life I have had piggy dinner and wine and feel much more cheerful!

Kitchen (and bar) shut - highest cals of the week, 1900. Have to see whether I managed to stick to my points and my saved points, I think I did. Feeling very 😇
Glad you're feeling a bit better gen - life's too short for feeling crap😉

I dare not calculate my cals. Tomorrow I have zoom yoga at 0930 and spin at 11 while DH is at work. I know you can’t outrun a bad diet but surely it helps?!

Ahh it was just a Friday splurge, you'd been v good all week. Count it as your 20% indulgence.
My normal Fridays are 2600, sometimes even closer to 3000 - total gluttony, then I do it again on Saturday 🤦‍♀️.
In your case gen, I bet you weren't anywhere near that. Forget it, no guilt.
Down .6 today - repeat to myself, don't cock it up

Checked my points, I used some of my leftovers points from during the week, still have some extra I can use over the next 2 days.

Weighed this morning and my indulgence of half a bottle of wine, Irish coffee and cheesy Italian dish with garlic bread has made scales jump back almost to where I started! 😭 lesson learned or what.
Yoga today followed by spin.
Food so far - Greek yoghurt with rasps and stewed pear, homemade minestrone soup and half a brioche roll. Dinner is prawn stirfry made by DH.
Hoping to get out into the sun for a walk in a bit, have to stick a laundry on and do some jobs first.

That is pure alcohol and carb bloat gen, give it 2-3 days of back on track and it'll go and show you what you lost. Honestly, we don't gain kg's/lbs overnight. Sadly we don't lose them either but that's up to us to accept or ignore (sez she who takes a loss as gospel😉)
I'm in bad pain today, managed a potter to the shops so at nearly 10,000. Spent the last 45 mins marinating in the bath in an attempt to lessen the doms. I guess it's positive that I did put in some effort. Takeaway planned for tomorrow but it'll be a dry day, the start of my 5/2 AF. Had a glass of wine in the bath, it was lovely

Mostly bread, meat and chocolate today

Sounds tasty life - are you ok?

Evening everyone
Don't sweat the small stuff we are in unchartered times for us and it will all come good soon
Not you are smashing it well done lovely!
I am bringing up the rear here but not for much longer l even went for a stroll tonight with my Dh it was lovely

Bacon and chorizo cheese enchiladas for lunch, pizza for dinner and Aldi almond chocolate. And coated cashews
Am l alright, no bit I'm better than I was.
Im also thirsty, too much salt food
