    well, i was bad last night, i ended up having two burgers and 3 kebabs off the BBQ and a pan o chocalate (sp), so i weighed this morning to check the damage and i have 1/2lbs heavier, which im not worried about because that could jsut be water from all the salt in the processed foods.

    is everyone else enjoying the weather? its boiling here today!!

    I WISH IT WAS BOILING... In actual fact it is but the Sun has dissapeaered behind the clouds...

    Just rang up Thompson this morning in utter panic as my holiday is NEXT FRIDAY and we havent had any confrimation through for the holiday! was well and truely sh**ting myself last night thinking about it! Sorry to put it that way.. but when you've paid over £800 for a holiday you expect something!! Thank god its all ok! Ha ha ha... i can stop worrying!

    Last night i was Bad... But not in a Food way.. i mean exercise... I had 1,550 cals yesterday... However.. i went to the gym n burnt 412, then went for a run to my mates + lunges burning 128 then had to run back burning another 105... so i burnt 645 leavingto eat 2,000 odd cals... (my non exericise days are 1,330)

    Mm.... Its all ok i suppose... im not starving!!???

    well I have done it, I have worked up a sweat doing the housework and I spent hour and half at the gym, I have burned over a 1000 cal. which certainly makes up for my period. I am feeling so much better today. :happy:
    My plan is to work out every day for an hour to hour and a half (which is up by half hour from previous weeks) my aim is to do two hours for the month of June. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Loving this weather, seem to guzzle even more water :laugh:

    Hope you all have a great weekend :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Catching up:

    Welcome back missyt :smile:

    Amy: I'm going to spain in July, can't wait!

    Katherine: You beat the dreaded muffin! WELL DONE! :laugh:

    Cinnamon: Re: Latin America - not been there but want to go, nearest I got wasCuba. I grew up nearby in Jamaica. My Dad is semi retired but still does some project work, if you live anywhere near Sheffield then let me know as he sometimes has volunteers straight from uni who want to gain work experience.

    Katie/Helen: It's gorgeous here too. Enjoy! :drinker:

    OK I need to re-commit to everything. I was doing really well but I have had visitors for 5 days and the diet has crashed and is smouldering in the corner, along with the exercise routine. I gained 2 pounds, lost one by walking for 9 hours around Alton Towers, and screaming lots :laugh: The Tapas bar was a disaster. Everyone has gone now but I am so cross with myself for having been de-railed that it's sapping my motivation. Logging all the missed meals here has helped, reading my blog, now I just have to make sure I stick to my meal plans and exercise this afternoon. :grumble:

    Back on track now....lost the two I put on and another one - phew!

    Really going to have to get on top of the social eating and drinking and the "OMG it's all gone wrong, I may as well give up" attitude that follows.

    DO NOT GIVE UP!!!! oops so sorry for shouting lol I think we all hit the plateau at some point, I am boycotting all weighing scales, they are depressing monsters out to get us they do not tell you what you want to hear so bring on the tape measure, the humble tape measure that does the job and at a fraction of a price :bigsmile: Any takers? :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    LOL I'm not giving up, I was just suprised that my resolve wavered for a while. I haven't used the tape measure yet, I have to find it first :laugh:

    Week 5 Challenge!!!

    this week, its back to basics.
    why are we losing weight? why are fruits and veg and natural foods better for us than processed and fast foods?
    why do we need our 8ltrs of water a day?

    research your foods and other healthy options

    Ladies, Sorry I fell of the radar last week.
    Had a little problem with the boyfriend.
    He was telling me that I don’t need to loose any more weight and that I look fine, but not in a complementary way More like a shouting at me way!
    So I promised that I would just maintain and up my calories. I haven’t counted at all last week, but I did jump on the scales and am up to what I was when i started. Im going to Maintain and just tone up I think. If that will keep him happy. Sorry I missed everything last week!

    I hope everyone’s ok and keeping on top of things - I like the new challenge!

    Im just making myself a new plan, today is day 1 of 6 weeks before I go away of eating my calories and not going over! Exercising and following my plan of exercise 6 times a week and rest on a Sunday.

    Breakfast was 1/3 Tub Low fat Cottage Cheese with Pineapple and some Blueberries mixed in!

    How about everyone else?
