Good afternoon OMADers 😘
Just a short update:
Weigh-in : 128 lbs
OMAD - Jin Ramen with Egg and Chinese Cabbage, 1 Mini Flake Chocolate Bar and 1 Shortbread Cookie
Drink - Water, Black Tea and Diet Soda
Exercise - Desk cycle whenever I sit at my work desk and 30 mins zumba this evening *fingers cross*
Talking about cycling at my desk, I actually clocked in nearly 1 hour yesterday 😅
Take care and have a wonderful Tuesday ❤️1 -
WOW that bike is super super cool!!! And yeah, some movement is always better than NO movement so yay you ........Keep it up and you will get to your goal before you know it!!!!

That bike has got to be doing something, I mean your moving right, plus you're doing Zumba still so you're actually doing extra!!!1
-
I have a mini exercise bike under my desk at work and it does count. All movement counts. I try to get an hour in on mine when I am in the office.1

@volgirl1322 - I love my desk cycle Its really great as I can cycle away while sitting at my desk
@Brendalea69 - Yes, I agree I found a Online Calorie Calculator on the MagneTrainer website. Its a calculator for a mini desk exercise bike and I am pretty happy that if I rode 1 hour at a speed of 15 mph (which is pretty slow) for 60 mins, I actually burn roughly 147 calories. Not bad at all
@LadyBlanks - Totally agree I too try to get in a minimum of 1 hour per day If you would like to how much calories you burn, please visit the MagneTrainer website and hop onto their online calorie calculator...I burn around 147 calories per hour which is better than just sitting on my desk doing nothing.1 -
Good evening OMADers 😘
A wonderful sunny Spring day today But, when I weighed myself, I am still stuck So, here's my update

Good afternoon OMADers
I am so over this...I ensure that I don't consume too much and I exercise but no matter what I do...the scale just won't move I will just keep trying till my body gives up fighting with me.
Hope things are better for you guys1 -
Oh Jade, so sorry.....maybe you will see the results soon....don't give up ---you are doing great!!!!0

@volgirl1322 - Thank you I know my body is fighting with me and I hope it will give up soon so that I can see some weight loss0

Good evening OMADers
It suppose to be Spring time here but it was so cold today that some parts of my State snowed. A town which is 45 mins drive away had snow and everyone was building a snowman and making snow angels there. Too bad that we couldn't drive there as we were working. Oh well..
I weighed this morning and the scale gave me a miserable 0.5lb loss. Imagine that... I only OMAD and nothing much happened. So, today, I decided to give myself a cheat day...some people say its to trick our bodies. Normally, I keep my calories below 1200 (OMAD) but today, it was a high 1524 calories due to my love for Texas Toast My cheat day is a day for me to drown myself in food due to days of disappointment As it was so cold...around 5°C (41°F), my kids wanted Texas Toast with lots of Garlic Butter. We made a whole loaf of Tip Top The One Sandwich Bread White and spread each slice with our own homemade garlic butter spread and baked it for 15 mins. OMG, it was delicious with a cuppa In the evening, I did my exercises - 62 mins on my Desk Cycle, Zumba for 45 mins, Tabata Upper Body Exercises & Tabata Lower Body Exercises.
Hope that everyone is doing well
Have a wonderful weekend

Good evening OMADers
Weekends....the worse for me as I tend to over-eat...its like a cheat Sunday for me Oh well..up onto the wagon I go once again. Never weighed myself as I know its not going to be pretty
OMAD at around 1pm today and I had Rice with Black Bean Chicken Breast stir-fried with veggies. Saw Lay's Sweet Chilli & Sour Cream Chips and couldn't resist it and ate half a bag Also had 2 little mandarin oranges and drank OJ. As for exercises, I did 45 mins of aerobics, cycled for 1 hour on my desk cycle and some floor exercises.
Hopefully, I can see some weight loss this week...fingers cross!0 -
Hopefully you will be pleased with your results....we all deserve a cheat day (or two)

@volgirl1322 - Thank you for cheering me on Am happy to see that my scale move down a little today0

Good evening OMADers
Happy to see my little scale move down a little this morning Am now 127lbs Not the whoosh that I wanted but at least its down a little
Weather was beautiful this morning and afternoon Its a cooling 12°C (53.6°F) right now and am enjoying a cuppa tea with no sugar:) Just finished my exercises for today and am happy with that too
OMAD at 12pm and had Singapore Fried Noodles, Belmont Ginger Stem Cookies and I couldn't helped myself but ate the New York Levain Chocolate Chip Cookies which I made for my kids. These cookies are just delicious and I got the recipe from my gf from NY. Now that my kids have tasted these babies, no other cookie comes to par with this As for exercises, I managed to zumba for 45 mins and then I did my Tabata Upper Body Workout and the Tabata Lower Body Workout. As for my desk cycle, I managed to cycle for 60 mins today
Hope that I can see more weight loss this week... fingers cross!!!

Good evening OMADers
It has been a while since I posted...life has been pretty down due to covid-19. Some of our suppliers couldn't give us our items as they can't get them from other States. So, we can only sell what we can get from our suppliers I really wish the borders will open soon so that life can get back to normal. And my thyroid and my vertigo got worse as I am worrying so much. I know I shouldn't worry but we have to pay rent, school fees and the monthly expenses do not stop just because of covid-19.
As for my weight, I am hovering at 58kg and I am having such a hard time trying to shed these 8kg. No matter what I do, nothing works and it sucks. So, my aim is to get rid of this 8kg before Christmas and that would be my Christmas present
Hope everyone is doing much better than me0 -
Hugs pretty girl, hope things do start to change soon. In our county cases are up to where they were at the beginning and now schools are starting back....just a mess. Don't stress too much on the weight this stress is keeping pounds on a lot of us, take care of you!!!!1
-
This has been a wretched year for a lot of people. Our schools are opening up too. I hope things start to look up for you.1
-
Hi JP. I understand your wish to let go of another 8kg. That sort of loss would be ideal for me because it would get me back to my ideal weight and into the healthy BMI zone of 25. It's been a tough year for you guys in lockdown - we've been luckier here in Qld and I've been able to work from home and get outside for exercise and socialising. Wish you all the best with getting back down to your ideal weight before Christmas.1
-
I think the stress is causing a lot of people weight issues. I know stress is causing my own problems.
Just keep staying as strong as you can and keep going. Give yourself some slack. Try to destress as much as you can and stay strong!2 -
@volgirl1322 - Thank you 😘 We have some good news as by 8 November Melb Metro will open up and we from the Regional areas can go down and see our love ones😁 So far, no new cases for the past 2 days👍0
-
@DamnShortie - Thank you ❤️ A warm welcome to you too😘 Yes, our schools have open, just waiting for the borders of each States to open up so that we can see our love ones🤨0
