mum2OliNoandJess · 01/02/2010 15:53

Just had a thought. when we say lose 2stone by March are we saying March 1st or March 31st, as i know which one i am more likely to hit ( with only being four weeks till March 1st!! )

GettinTrimmer · 01/02/2010 16:18

ohhh....Blondes I know who she is now, I saw her in a programme on BBC4 following her weight loss, I know part of it was spending a week in a boot camp in Scotland.

mum2Oli - well done on your 1lb loss. I think it's 2 stone by the end of March, but it will take me until the end of June to do mine.

Disenchanted3 · 01/02/2010 16:20

2lbs off for me again

i was thinkmg the END of march when i started it

well done to everyone, I think we're doing really well

I did my dvd for the first time today, went ok except me not being that co-ordinated and mucking the steps up I just carried on moving !! I can feel my calves are a bit tight now so I must've done something right, plus it kept my mind off the chocolate box/biscuit tin

Disenchanted3 · 01/02/2010 17:50

GT I already have a dog called poppy and one called lily

she will need walking daily yes.

Do you think its time we deleted the people from the list that never came back? that haven't lost anything/updated? its been a month.

OP posts:
bebejones · 01/02/2010 18:17

Dis, what about Daisy, to continue the theme?!

Think deleting those who haven't posted would make things easier. They can always re add themselves should they return!

Have eaten more today than usual, still been good though! Did teat myself with half a very small bag of chocolate buttons (had to share with DD!) still a bit that I have lost a whole stone! Bet subsequent ones will be much much harder!

Disenchanted3 · 01/02/2010 18:18

i always said i wouldnt manage 2 stone by march, as i was always a 1 lb a week girl, but recently been 2 lbs - and my target is july - but if i make before july then fab, but doubtful

TRIMMER yes she did a boot camp for a week, her dvd is good and there are naked men in it - well semi naked men

GettinTrimmer · 01/02/2010 18:34

Dis - I was thinking the same about deleting the people who didn't come back, then we can see who's still with us.

This thread is keeping me going with the 'ol dieting.

Blondes - I like the sound of that DVD!

mrswill · 01/02/2010 20:59

Really really well done on all the losses thanks for asking trimmer its going ok, she's not great but please god she will be ok with time...

JODIEwantsanewname · 02/02/2010 07:03

Hi all,

Glad that Monday went well for most of you!

I had a great weekend in the Peak District, the cottage was beautiful and the weather was stunning (for January!) Not a cloud in the sky, great walking weather. DS1 (3.5) did 6 miles on Saturday and 3 on Sunday, He's such a star!

As I thought, I did eat alot, but I steered clear of alcohol so shouldn't be that bad, although I won't be weighed this week as I'm off to Spain for my dad's 60th on Thursday-Tues, and I doubt I'll steer clear of alcohol then as I'm going with my sister, who is flying in from Oz tonight Haven't seen her for ages!

mum2OliNoandJess · 02/02/2010 08:50

Jodie that sounds fab, well done you for avoiding the alcohol as its terrible when your defences are down...

Its snowing here again. was supposed to be out for work but thankfully cancelled. Can see a snow day from school coming.

skinsl · 02/02/2010 10:57

Ok,back from Dubai and only put on one pound, which isn't bad considering I didn't really say no to much! Right back into it now. Have no more excuses/time away/birthdays. Just the gym and healthy food

mrswill - well done on your 1lb

Jodie - glad you had a good weekend, have a great few days in Spain. Will the weather be good where you're going?

mum2oli - This is snow joke!! I am hoping we've seen the back of it here on the south coast - where in the country are you?

I went ahead and bought Anna Richardson's book, the diet is a little too strict for me at 1200 cals but she has some good ideas and I've decided to try cutting out bread, potatoes and cheese this week. She has some great soup recipes and I made her muesli this morning.

Blondes - is Clare's dvd good aerobically? Do you get very puffed out?

Blondeshavemorefun · 02/02/2010 11:37

well done on loss's and skins only putting on a lb from holiday is good, hope you had a fab time

jodie - well done for avoiding booze

MABs sorry about your car.

I am going to have to start practicing running. But I really can't run! I really don't want to look like a right numpty on the day, but that may well happen. We have entered the central London sport relief mile which they warn you will be televised. So if anyone sees it on the day - I'll be the hefty lookng beetroot!!! ( although obviously less hefty than once was the case!!)

Does anyone have any tips for complete novice runners? Obviously other than only go out at night time!

Whoever is going to thin out the group list, please don't accidently delete me, I really couldn't do this so well without you all.
Piste x.

thanks all, what i would say about running is get a good sports bra!

Second what Mabs said about a good sports bra, I strap mine down before going off.

I did the Great South Run in 2003 and some 10K 'races' (I'm happy if I just finish!).

I would start off with walking for 5 minutes then jogging slowly for 1 minute, for about 20 minutes and slowly build it up. I also noticed a running thread with plenty of experienced bods who can give advice.

aww mabs, what a pain, hope insurance sorts it out quickly

def get a good sports bra - i have one and still bounce a bit

i hope to lose a bit of boob with this diet, last time lost 4inches and 2 cupsizes

though have grown back as boobs are just fat!!

mr blondes doesnt want them to shrink and i told him tough shit!!

Sports bra it is then, and possibly some trainers?!!

Maybe if I JUST wore a sports bra and some trainers, I'd be on the television then?
