Lost

In more ways than one today :O(

Anyway I lost 1.5lb which is good after my 2lb gain last week. Feeling tired and down today so I need to watch my eating, Krav tonight so that should help even though I don't want to go, but i will drag myself there!

Nothing new......

to report really, got weigh in tomorrow morning. Haven't done as well as I could of really but we'll see how it goes.

Just been for a jog, really pushed myself and only managed to knock 2 seconds off my time! Well I'll put that down to my knee, just to make me feel better :O) But it was a good workout anyway.

Good luck to you if you have weigh in, fingers crossed for me.

Jogging in the rain

What a lovely day it's been, took the kids to the park, played a little football but mostly laid with Ray, watching the kids play, it was lovely.

Anyway we went to McDonalds which really is a one off for us and I never try and be good or count any points. Soooooo, once we got home and sorted out I put on my joggers and went for a jog in the rain, quite refreshing really and my knee isn't as uncomfortable today. Back out again tomorrow so will burn that naughty mc d's off.

I'm just sat sorting out music for my ipod, am planning on really upping my jogging from this week and I don't very often listen to music as I jog but it may just help me up my pace so I have dug out my clubland discs and adding them to my playlist. I love to jog to Keane but I think I need something a little faster to get me going.

Am still off the squats for now, as soon as I'm not feeling any pulling as I jog I will be back at it. Still going at it with the sit ups and press ups, I really do hate press ups!!!! But I will do it, I have noticed I'm getting quite competitive! Think that has come from jogging with competitive people, which isn't a bad thing at all :O)

So lets hope we get some decent weather cos even though it's quite refreshing to jog in the rain, I don't think I'd be up for doing it too often!

Grrrrrrr!

Had a really stressful day today but I'm managing to keep on track, which is great as recently I would of given in by now and just stuffed my face :O)

I went out for a jog this morning which went well, wasn't in pain but my knee did feel uncomfortable still. I guess it'll take a week or so to get back to normal so I'm not gonna push it with the squats.

Well lets hope I continue like this now :O)

Weigh~in :O(


Right, after messing about for two weeks I have gained 2lb. I thought I'd of gained more but am not happy with myself at all.

I'm now 9.5lb behind on my holiday goal with is gutting really when I think that all I had to do was loose 1lb a week! Bloody hell, I really do let myself down at times.

I'm going to drop my points by 2 per day because I've pulled the ligaments in my knee and can't exercise very much at all. As I won't be spending time exercising I'm going to try and put all that energy into cooking and planning my meals, basically going back to basics and trying to get back into the flow of things.
I must say that I am really missing the exercise and that I've been so tired the past two days, I even have ended up napping! Feeling zapped! It could be due to the fact that my mood is still all over the place but hopefully I'll be back at it next week.

Oh I hope I can do this. I CAN do this!!!

Bad me!

Having a terrible time being a good girl! Need a slap to go along with the kick up the backside!!!

First day back on track today, weigh in tomorrow so will find out what the damage is. I've ate like a pig so it could be bad, and the exercise hasn't been great and is now just not really happening at all. I have pulled the ligaments in my knee doing the squat challenge so I'm having a week off from them, going for a limp later though as I don't think I'll be able to jog well.

I'm feeling fatter than ever right now and need to get my head sorted out. I know I have had personal problems but at some point I need to be able to control my eating when things are tough. I don't think the meds I've been taking will make any difference to my weight loss so will see in the morning how motivated my gain makes me.

Wish me luck with next week!

Run Forest run!

Right so last night I did my initial tests for the challenges I've decided to join in with then went jogging. Getting back into the swing of it now and still enjoying it.

Been for a jog today too before I collected Abi from school, I help the kids get ready for Taekwondo on a Monday at the school and they were asking me if I'm trying to get fit :O) they are great kids and all looked very smart in their new uniforms in lesson. They think I'm special cos I can fasten their belts, bless.
Anyway I jogged a full mile without stopping which I have never tried to do before so was a great achievement, 3 months ago I couldn't even jog 100 steps!

Right, day one of the challenges completed, not too bad so just waiting for the sore days to start, will be sure to let you know when they do.
I did 108 squats ~ 45 press ups ~ 38 sit ups! Go me :O)

Right off for a bath before Rainbows.

Never got to weigh in.

I really should of made more of an effort but I ended up running late and just didn't make myself go.

I think I've gained 1lb which is expected. This week has been a bad week all round, having major personal issues and am quite depressed so I may struggle for the next few weeks until I get myself pulled round.

I've gone all week without any exercise so yesterday I made myself do 40 minutes on the wii fit, which did make me feel a little better. We had planned to go jogging at 8pm as I have been crying off but my jogging pal couldn't make it so I did go out on my own, it was a slow time but I did it.
I'm not sure if I will make it to Krav tonight, will try but I might wrap up and go for a walk soon, think I need to get out.

I'm waving at....

my 10% goal. 14 stone 13lbs, 4lb to loose!

So when I started I aimed to loose 57lbs, I've now lost 19lbs which leaves 38lbs to loose to get me to goal. I need to loose 9.5lb to get me half way.

Let hope these numbers can keep me going cos we're going through some personal stuff right now. Fingers crossed!
