how was Deadpool?
and weekend in general?
Happy monday morning everyone!0 -
Deadpool was great, plenty of inappropriateness. Had a good rowing session yesterday, aching now, it made me eat all the food though.
How was cake and beer?1 -
excellent! am looking forward to Fri already
yeah cardio is definitely hunger inducing!!
cake was awesome and beer was fab.
I had cookie dough cheesecake and my mates had a limoncello and marscapone scone and a cheese and chive scone that came with pickle.
Really lovely days haha0 -
Yeah I can't wait for the weekend, I am camping Friday night, hiking Saturday during the day then going to the Pro 14 final.
Our work have finally opened our on-site gym, so I am going to go and check that out tonight. Might encourage me to get more strength training in.1 -
your work does just get better and better!!
Pro14 is....Rugby? very cool weekend by the sounds!
mine will consist of seeing Deadpool, 12 mile run and watching anime - and eating pizza0 -

I had brace adjustment today and am suffering lol - dry mouth plus new wires = ripped lips and sore teeth. Lame!
But - fish and chips tonight with my step dad at his allotment. That'll be fun!

Week is going well, had a lot of sunshine, laid out on a picnic blanket yesterday with my Kindle and a can of light bulmers, I totally didn't log everything I had yesterday because I kind of mindlessly snacked yesterday, realised though that shark week is due around Friday so need to be more aware of this, I had a good handle on managing my cravings up until the last 2 months because I would make an effort to increase carbs and calories slightly in the run up so I didn't go craving crazy, however, the last 2 months have flown by and forward planning as totally passed me by!
I have signed up for a DietBet transformer, put my money where my mouth is, literally, I weighed yesterday evening (you have to submit a photo of your weight), which kind of helps with the initial 3% goal for round one because I was about 5lb heavier than my morning weigh in, that puts me at 22.5lb loss in 6 months to win my bet, which is totally do-able. The final day of each round falls just before my PMT craziness so that too should help, as it's usually the lowest weight of each month.
Hope the gums are feeling better.0 -

That sounds awesome! Do love my kindle in the sun hehe.
The bet sounds interesting, how much could you win? - as does the shark week management. So far I have got as far as recognising cravings happen around 4-5 days beforehand so I don't beat myself up if I go over. Next step is to plan more stuff to not let the cravings come in! Or actually, have decided to go for trying the pill to stop all the sharky stuff so that may impact cravings too - ooh I see another spreadsheet tracker happening heheh
still got quite a bad ulcer inside lower gum. Got bonjela on the go and copious amounts of lip balm. If it isn't better next Tues I will go and get some wax from dentist to cover the offending bracket for a bit.
BUT
It is FRIDAY!! woohoo! hoping the rain holds off tomorrow cos I really want to do this 12 mile run in semi dry at least. Then another anime and pizza weekend

Zero race prep - oops
I am camping in Wicklow tonight, hiking the Maulin loop in the morning, then heading to hotel in Dun Laoghaire before heading out for the Pro 14 final at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin then possibly more hiking on the way home on Sunday. Busy, busy, busy.0 -
ahh sorry yes you said that earlier this week! I have completely lost days!
I would definitely class all the walking as race prep! Keeping active and muscles working!0 -
Certainly worked those muscles, took off-trail steep path up to one of the summits, rather than the longer more gradual path. Worth it for the view on the way up though.

Happy hump day folks, it's a bank holiday in Ireland this weekend and in true fashion the week before it is bloody dragging. Roll on Friday!0
-
hah dragging from other side here in Midlands. Bank holiday just gone and this 4 day week feels like it is 8 days long already!1
-
Fake Monday here, have had an extremely busy and active weekend, not much food logging going on though, trending has me at maintenance over the last week, knuckling back down now the race is done, going to keep up the rowing twice per week and think there is another race in September, so might give that a whirl if there is room in a team for me.
Went out for a little jog yesterday morning too so also going to try and fit 2 jogs in a week and do my weight training at work.
Nice pic of our team in the local paper too.
