Oh yes I forgot about SynSync Friday.

I was thinking in terms of what they deserved ie great pots of Jo Malone body cream etc rather than what I would actually stump up for!

OK here's to my four ExerSazzes, planned for gym Tue, Thur and Fri, and we walked the dogs for an hour yest (I konw I am not supposed to count those).

hotterpotter · 28/09/2009 14:08

Don't start worrying about body fat , I have soooooo much of that I'm not sure how I've managed to go down nearly 2 stone! VG you are doing great, really I think you deserve more praise than Sazz or I because at least we have pretty regular decent losses with only the odd plateau. You manage to keep the faith with your pound here and there, you are a good girl and will get your reward soon Gym sounds good too, I'm sure it's all you need to speed up your toning and slimming

Got my size 14 jeans on

StrictlySazz · 28/09/2009 20:19

Well done on the 14 hots, i have mine on too

VG i would have been interested to see what my body fat % did and body measurements have improved by, but as i failed to get starting measurements i guess i'll never know

Not brilliant day here as i had a few nibbles at the party (but no cake) so only a very small bowl of pasta, steamed salmon and creme fraiche (1/2 fat) for dinner. Oh and a glass of red

Gym/swim tomorrow, swim & netball Weds, walk Thurs and walk/swim on Fri to make my 4

hotterpotter · 28/09/2009 20:47

You get plenty of praise lady! You can have a little bit more for only having one glass of wine though, I don't have that kind of willpower

Done my biking ExerSazz today and eaten well but I am hungry already

OP posts:
StrictlySazz · 28/09/2009 21:28

LOL i know i do

You are all fab . What are we going to do whilst you are on holiday Hots? Can you rope in a deputy to come and post waffle supportive and motivational comments whilst you are off eating and drinking cultivating a tan and doing daily yoga before your yoghurt and fresh fruit?

hotterpotter · 28/09/2009 21:35

We will just have to get some of those slacking part-time poster/lurkers back on the thread to keep you going while I am gone.

Yes you No1, yes you Cyteen

I'm only gone for a week anyway, thank flip or the damage to my dieting may have been irreparable

VintageGardenia · 29/09/2009 14:25

Oh Sazz you know you are our inspiration. We liked your work so much we bought the company named the thread for you!

Have been to gym this morning. They said longer, slower run was better than vigorous attack (ahem - they had not seen me run) so I did a steady 30 mins without monitoring distance (was 4.5K) and then a series of machines which have always scared the crap out of me up to now. However v. charming staff have showed how it's done. In fact gym is all round nicer, friendlier, more personal, than old one. ds was in the creche with the lovelies again but the poor boy was very and there were tears . Ho hum.

Something about the darker evenings etc is making me not just blue but craving alcohol .

I too am wearing size 14 jeans. Alas they are the same feckers I was wearing months ago.

Sometimes I feel all I ever do is complain. Sorry girls!!

Potsy tis nearly hols time have you your clothes sorted????

hotterpotter · 29/09/2009 19:02

I love all the different names you give me VG I am glad your new gym sounds so fab, and DS will get used to it really quickly. I think it will be just what you need to get you in some size 12 jeans!

My bedroom is like a fecking jumble sale at the moment thera are different piles of clothes all over and it's all going to have to be sorted out again before I can pack. I don't really have enough clothes but only going for a week so can always wash if necessary or, more likely, wear dirty stuff

Been to town with DS in the pushchair for once today. We walked there, back, and all around. A total of 2.5 hours without stopping so not sure how far I'll get on the bike tonight...

OP posts:
StrictlySazz · 29/09/2009 21:25

Don't s'pose you'd like HoPo would you?

LOL at bought the company VG . I hope DS settles into the creche, i'm sure it will take a few goes and then he will be running in himself like DD1 does

Sadly I have been very uninspirational today as i failed to go to the gym/pool. I did sweep the patio, watered the plants and washed all the DD's outdoor toys so worked up a bit of a sweat. Good food wise so hoping to see some results. Quick swim tomorrow morning with creche booked before DD2's lesson

hotterpotter · 29/09/2009 21:39

Got mine last night so we are un-synching Hoping it will help lose a few oz in time for Friday.

Done another 11 miles on t'bike tonight and was sweating like a pig after so must have worked quite hard. That and my mammoth shopping trip this aft means I am knackered (and strangely extra-northern tonight )

OP posts:
VintageGardenia · 30/09/2009 06:52

LOL I hadn't even noticed hots! But yes you are hots, pots, hotpot, hotsy, potsy, etc etc and now HoPo!! You are rarely hp, never HP and only terpo on Sundays . LOL at HoPo and occasionally ((c) Sazz) NoHoPoFlo which is norther hotterpotter with her period arf arf have I pushed the joke too far and made it unfunny yet??

Ooh my tummy muscles hurt from the gym yesterday this is A Good Thing!

Wondering if I shoudl go to the gym instead of working while I have my ma here today...

Enjoy your swim Sazz.

StrictlySazz · 30/09/2009 21:21

50 lengths this morning

60 mins of netball (including running this eve

Bugger all food

Must be some downward impact, surely.........

hotterpotter · 30/09/2009 21:22

OK VG NoHoPoFlo may be just a nickname too far

Have had a good and bad day, 2 hour pushchair push this afternoon and 11 miles on the bike tonight, but I had half a Wispa Gold and a Double Decker for lunch . Was feeling a bit [blue], seem to get my PMT worst on day 2-3 of my period rather than before it well that is my excuse. Had a healthyish tea with loads of veggies so recovered a little there.

OP posts:
hotterpotter · 30/09/2009 21:24

Ooh Sazz well done Are you feeling anxious about Friday then?

OP posts:
StrictlySazz · 30/09/2009 21:30

Oh, I like NoHoPoFlo

Not anxious about Friday as i think i may have goodish news to report, but i thought you would be bored of my daily food ingestion report by now

Well done you on pulling back after the chocolate lunch. You could have just said 'feck it' but the fact you know it is PMT related and a phase that will pass, that is brilliant

hotterpotter · 01/10/2009 08:10

Just had my pre-weigh weigh and I seem to be plateauing again, after only one week of down . Will try and drink drink drink today to see if I can knock a lb off for the morning

OP posts:
VintageGardenia · 01/10/2009 10:13

How was the netball Sazz, was it fun?

I have done two days of running and will do another today. Did run 5K yesterday in 33 mins but didn't have time to do the machines etc as had to get back to my mammy.

StrictlySazz · 01/10/2009 13:02

Ooh VG well done you - you have already speeded up

I did enjoy the netball thanks but i now have a sore heel to add to my RSI on my forearms from paintspraying. I have therefore decided that the only thing i can manage is a swim this avo so i am going to head over to the pool a bit later and then relax in the sauna for a LOOOONG time

My weigh in showed guess is that i have actually gone up a bit which is ludicrous given my food/exercise yesterday. I think it must be a blip and still no AF.

VintageGardenia · 01/10/2009 18:19

Yes I was pleased I could run again. But like you I have eaten bugger all and sweated copiously but the preview my sense is not good.

StrictlySazz · 01/10/2009 20:10

LOL at us and our previews guesses, well apart from dizzy who not only misses guessing previews but actual weigh ins as well . Where is she BTW? Must go and harass her before hots disappears otherwise it will be like one of those EastEnders 2 hander shows . Bagsy i am Dot Cotton and VG you can be Pauline, Jim or Nasty Nick

I have done 40 lengths today, eaten special K, tuna salad and pork & peppers with rice. Actually got loads of calories left so may have a sly G&T

dizzydixies · 01/10/2009 21:03

[meep]

StrictlySazz · 01/10/2009 21:10

Hurrah

Got her

dizzydixies · 01/10/2009 21:11

lol, you dafty

StrictlySazz · 01/10/2009 21:14

[evil cackle]

Blimey, it's more like an episode of 'Enders round here every day
