fedda · 22/01/2009 18:24

Well, you do more then me.

starbear · 23/01/2009 16:24

Really will start on Monday. Feeling bloated and totally angry with myself.
Ds in nursery this morning to help me get back on track and I totally wasted the day.
Didn't exercise, didn't clean out cupboard Naffink! The had tea scone and jam as I had not had lunch. Not hungry just thought I should eat something. Feel a little full and sick now. can't figure why i spend the money, not like it and still do it!!
I've got into some strange habits.
WELL MONDAY IT HAS TO CHANGE PROMISE!!!!!!!

fedda · 23/01/2009 17:16

Monday for me as well (i hope)

starbear · 24/01/2009 19:28

I'm getting ready for Monday. Got up early and did circuits at the gym at 9am. Wow! Swimming with DS after (not exercise) Going to sign up for a 10K fun run on 22nd March should be motivating!!!!!

starbear · 26/01/2009 21:58

On the road to recovery. Did sit-up with Ds who got bored but didn't stop me. He then proudly told DH that he has been exercising with Mum which is good. Then I went for a walk& run with the local running club (good runners meet on Thursdays) So proud of myself.
Diet front well that's still a work in progress but didn't have a glass of wine with DH tonight How did everyone else get on?

starbear · 27/01/2009 08:06

Sit-up done this morning. How are you all doning?

kidsrus · 27/01/2009 18:02

good start here
yesterday learnt how to ballet dance with dd,ate fairly sensible went to legs,bums and tums came home and ironed,went to bed.
today had about 19 points so far,might exercise later instead of snacking. weighed and measured today so i can compare in a month.
I am going to look so different in 6 months (10 years younger!).
hows things with you?

fedda · 27/01/2009 18:25

I need to loose 5 kg. I'm still not sensibly eating and no excersise apart from walking.

starbear · 27/01/2009 18:37

Okay morning but lunch time went to pot as I had to grab a petrol station sandwich and crisp. (I did drink water instead of tea with sugar )Very difficult to eat sensibly at work. I tried packed lunch but I'm always in a different building when lunch time comes and I can't carry it around with me. I'm going to have a sensible mid=morning snack then another snack before going home as I'm going to eat everything in my path by the time I get home. I'll try tommorow.

starbear · 27/01/2009 18:41

Fedda, I came back because of you, don't let me down. (sad) I'm putting 5p coins in a jar when ever I've done something towards the goal a la Pete Cohen. You could give it a go

Fimbles5 · 27/01/2009 21:59

Fedda - I so wish we were in the same area so I could give you a hug.. I am so in the same boat, and quite frankly I also have had enough. Why can't we do it???? hey. I am so worried about my health as I know what I am eating is so bad for me (esp. the bingeing), and you would think that would be enough to help me change my ways, but oh no, I'm still raiding the biscuit tin. I don't really know how to help you, only to say I feel for you and I would like you to keep posting so I have a shoulder to cry on (it helps me to talk to someone too). Lets try to start each day a fresh even if the day before has been awful, and hopefully one of these days we might just jump on the scales and see a loss. Oh and p.s. sending you a virtual hug [hug]

ds woke me up at 5am yes 5am! Stayed in bed until 6.15am stilled did sit-ups. Now packing my gym bag for tonight.Off to work now. Good luck everyone today One Day at a Time people! Make this the best

fedda · 28/01/2009 16:48

Thank you so much, everyone. I feel I need to start believing in myself. Tomorrow I'll start for sure. No more excuses and stupid reasons not to. It's not a joke out of 7 kg lost I gained 5 kg back. What a stupid thing to do. I even stopped feeling guilty when I eat all the things in coffee shops I shouldn't even look at and as for signature hot chocolate with cream on top - honestly! Okay, I PROMISE: no more hot chocolate with cream and stop the white flour pastry based goodies from coffee shops together with white bread on my sandwiches. More salads and soups and stop feeling I can't make my own soup anymore thing. I can, I know I can, you saw my postings I made it, so what's my problem? Tomorrow is a start of going to a sensible way of eating and trying to dance in the evenings. I must do it since I promised. Speak to you soon xx

starbear · 28/01/2009 21:50

I'm doing the Pete Cohen 5p in a jar reward thingy, roughly thing.
So for today I
sit-ups (even though Ds woke me up from a deep sleep at 5.30am) 5p
glass of water 5p
Did not have the chicken Satay or crisps at work. just sandwich, peach and water 15p

Went to the gym a little exercise and a swim

On the road to Divahood now!
Fedda & Fimbles5 If you did it once you can do it again. If you never have now the time to get it done.
