Blondeshavemorefun · 20/03/2010 18:15

well done jodie

i felt so guilty about the yummy sausages then i did a 1st for me and and decided to take woofa for a walk

so rang mr blondes and told he needed to come too as cant push buggy and control the monster

woof was very good, tho did have the urge every time we met a dog to go and sniff their bum

really dont understand this urge myself

GettinTrimmer · 20/03/2010 20:02

Evening all

piste Good luck with your run. Let us know how it goes!

jodie well done on your 1lb.

Blondes Walk with woof sounds good. Are you back home tomorrow?

I bought Davina's DVD, alternate that with Clare's, but tried Davina's Bottom Fit section - loads of squats.

My bum and legs are really feeling stiff and sore and I've had to leave off the exercise for the past couple of days, all I can say is no wonder Davina's in such good shape.

OP posts:
bebejones · 20/03/2010 20:55

Trimmer - which Davina DVD did you get? I have Power of 3 & the bottom and thighs section in that really kills too! The arms section I love though! It's the jumping bits I find hard as it makes my boobs hurt! Can't wait for my new bra to arrive then I can jump around without holding on!!

Piste - Good Luck for 2moro!

Jodie - well done on your 1lb! How's the arm feeling?

Blondes - well done on walking the woof very brave!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 20/03/2010 21:10

TRIMMER well done on doing davina

woofa is snoring (as usual) obv wore him out

i go home tomorrow afternoon, then back to normal hours monday for my job

but i am also doing a night nanny job next week for 2.5week old baby 9-7 then come to work

roll on next weekend when everything goes back to normal - and it will be mr blondes and i 3rd WA

bebejones · 21/03/2010 10:00

Woke up to beautiful sunshine this morning & thought I could take DD to the park for a bit and chase her around to help burn off those pancakes! But now it's gone all dark & cloudy!

Back to SpecialK for breakfast & soups and no snacking today in the hope that it helps with the dreaded weigh in in the morning! We had people round to watch the rugby (YAWN) last night and they brought pringles & caramel digestives!! How dare they bring such things into my house?!

GettinTrimmer · 21/03/2010 11:32

bebe I've got Davina's latest DVD, but will avoid high impact bottom and thighs for the time being!

What new bra have you ordered? I have a freya that is really good and stops the bounce.

Just done Clare's aerobic section, and doing her tummy bit later on. Due to the sore bits my exercise has gone down this week.

Blondes Have you got anything special planned for wedding anniversary?

Good luck to all weighing in tomorrow. I am hoping for 1lb.

OP posts:
bebejones · 21/03/2010 12:01

Trimmer - ordered this one coz it had good reviews, fingers crossed it holds everything in place!

Blondes - Will be my 3rd WA in Dec this year! Are you doing anything special?

Going to do some Wii & since weather is perking up might take DD out this afternoon. Struggled changing all the sheets this morning by myself. That has to have burnt some calories!

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/03/2010 13:48

well done on exercising everyone

i ma now home+was going to do dvd but cant be arsed - but i did spend all morning running round at an indoor play centre so must have burned a few cals(and obv sitting on my bum having a natter/cuppa with my friend)

she brought a bacon butty there, but i was good and didnt have one, but i do confess to an oat cookie

we are going out for a meal at lunchtime and there will be booze - have ordered taxi - i normally drive if we go out for a meal as prefer to eat calories/points rather then drink them

its our 3rd wa but our 18th anniversary - finally got married on our 15th anni in antigua

as i had a biccy i am cooking my usual low point chicken+roasted veg for a late lunch

good luck with weigh in everyone tomorrow x

Poohbearsmom · 21/03/2010 14:52

Hi all hope everyone is havin a lovely sunday i had Blondes pittas for lunch were so yum gona be naughty and have pasta for dinner blondes tis fab 18yrs well done hope ye hav a lovely aniversary wonder how piste is gettin on? wel done every1 on all da brill exercising

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/03/2010 15:15

i know - having sex with the same man for 18years

glad you liked my pitta pmb

i should really try new recipes but have a tired brain from cooing pigeon/dove waliing me up at the crack of dawn this morning

bebejones · 21/03/2010 15:25

Blondes - I completely sympathis re being woken up by irritating birds! 2 houses down the bloke there has chickens & the most annoying cockerel! Now it is lighter in the mornings he crows constantly from about 5ish! I am not a bird fan!! Plus as we get into summer it's usually worse as we have the windows open and he starts at about 4ish!
Totally with you on the new recipes, I'm completely stuck in a rut again! And sice DH is starting his diet 2moro it's going to be even harder as things that feed more than one are going out of the window!! Well done on resisting the bacon sandwich!

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/03/2010 15:58

bebe - my fb status was at 6am

oh for fucks sake. Shut up. Puts head under pillow. Im asleep, go and coo elsewhere

and before i knew it, my friend was telling me that she got woken up at 6am by her db farting outside her bedroom door (she lives in)

pmsl

the bacon butty smelt fabb but needs must

Blondeshavemorefun · 21/03/2010 18:36

PISTE how was the run?

can you walk/crawl?

laughalot · 21/03/2010 19:04

All i can say is big fat chocolate muffin i gave in and ate it oops !!!!!!!!!!!!!

GettinTrimmer · 21/03/2010 19:10

Apologies for the hijack but if anybody with creative flair has any advice advise me about decorating eggs

I've had crisps and raided the chocolate laughalot, still hoping for a loss tomorrow because I did alright the beginning of the week.

I was woken up by my old cat this morning at 6am, sympathise about the bird problem.

Morning All

I stayed the same which I think I deserve as there was a lot of cake involved this weekend.

Kayzr - how was your weekend?

PBM - thank you for your tip. I realised I was doing things like having a cheese sandich for lunch and then having another lump of cheese as I put the cheese away - oops!

Bebe/Gettin - brilliant news! Well done to the two of you. Bebe - are you going to be taking the weight loss queen crown at the end of this month?

Hope you all have good weeks

GettinTrimmer · 22/03/2010 09:41

bebe well done on your 2lb.

I am at that time when I have thought to myself "oh I've lost weight" and just forget about carrying on with the healthy eating. Then I've put it all back on again. Don't want that to happen again.

It's 11 weeks in now, and I am going to carry on till I get to my goal, this thread has made all the difference to me.

A big well done and thank you to everybody!!

PBM very well done on your 3lb, you are doing soooo well. Updated you. Is that right?

murtette sts is good too, mine's going slowly, but so long as it goes I don't mind.

What are we going to do at the end of the month? Are we going to start a new thread. I still have another 2-2.5 stone to go & you guys have kept me going! Is everyone stopping at the end of March? We should have a '2stone+ by the end of March or whenever' thread!

DH has started his Cambridge diet today, but forgot to get a blender for his milkshakes and said the lumps made him gag! Have been to Tescos thsi morning & stocked up on food for me & DD. DD is poorly...again, it's getting ridiculous now. She's only not been snotty for 4 days. Now she has the runs again & a raging temperature!
