    Hi guys and welcome to all newies

    Not posted in a few days because I have had to be on the road for a couple of days and it was pure murder avoiding the KFCs on the M1 etc:wink:

    Anyway back at home again and guess what weighed myself last night and finally lost another couple of pounds :happy: 5 lbs gone and 9 to go to my target weight of 12 - 5

    Hope you are all well and can see we seem all to be having little clitches along the way, sorry KP.:flowerforyou:

    Have faith and try harder and remember its going to be a lovely summer in jolly old england, so we need to look good in the back garden,:smooched: so as not to frighten the neighbours :glasses:

    Bob






    P.S the fish dish went down well with the wife last sat nite: only trouble is she expects me to do it again :sad:

    I just got back from the doctors, had some blood taken although it took forever as doctor really struggled to find a vein, will hopefully get test results back on Monday afternoon. Ah well, night off gym for me. I have a really sore hand/arm from drawing blood in two different places. Ouchie! :sad: Not so great with needles either!

    Hey all!!

    This week is going SO SLOWLY!!!! At least it's Thursday tomorrow!!

    Glad you're feeling a bit better now Lee :smile:

    I have finally lost a pound!! Woop!!

    Thursday tomorrow and payday Friday, yippee!!!

    Well done on the lost pound.

    I went back to gym after 2 1/2 weeks off and am aching tonight. Pushed it a bit harder to make up I think. Lovely surprise is that I'm top of the weight/inches lost for march. Wow! How motivating is that.

    I just love this particular board, us uk folk keeping each other going. Long may it continue.

    Best wishes all.

    went to spinning last night and was talking to a girl
    she started off doing just spinning classes..
    but now she does a 90 minute challenge before it aswell!
    2 & 1/2 hours of intense exercise, i was impressed
    she's going to do the new york marathon next year, so i'm aiming to keep on pace with her during the classes
    :)


    hope everyone's okay :)
    think 2 days till the weekend








    Saw run fatboy run film the other day. How loony is spinning! I'm so far off that level of fitness and my hat off to anyone who can do that.

    Hi All

    Humpday as some of you say and I have got the hump today!! Lovely sunny day but just feel fed up. Hopefully it will pass soon!

    Have been keeping under my daily calorie allowance by following the Kellogs 2 week kick start ( 2 bowls of cereal and 1 main dinner) I seemed to have adapted quite well to the amount I can eat, but when I weigh myself mid week (and yes I know I am not supposed to) I have put on weight. How?? 2 days to go til weigh in day and to be honest I am dreading it.

    On the plus side iy is supposed to be a lovely week end weather wise so will make sure I egt out to enjoy the sunshine!
    Keep up the good work all

    Ooops !!!

    A nice walk down town earned me 177 kcals, but the McDonalds Cadbury Creme Egg Mcflurry cost me 405 kcals !!!!

    Well, it is was a lovely sunny day, and I just couldn't resist.

    Hope you are all well, haven't had much chance to visit the board since I joined a couple of weeks back as work is really hectic at the moment, but the good news for me is I have been logging my food and exercise daily, and after my first two weeks on the site have kissed goodbye to 5 lbs.

    Just got to keep this up for a few months now at a steady 1lb per week to get to my goal

    Hope everyone has a good rest of the week, and it looks like we have some nice weather to look forward to at the weekend.

    Regards

    Paul

    I will be so glad when this week is over and its monday again - it'll mean i can eat properly again (YES!!)
    ive beeing doing this sacred heart diet all week (and yes i have cheated slightly) and its almost killed me not being able to eat bread or chocolate - ive lived off fruit, veg and soup all week! (apart from when i cheated) it has been worth it though - ive gone from 150.6lbs to (as of today) 145.8 with two days to go which im estimating at another 2lbs so i *should* weigh at least 143.8 on monday which will be the lightest ive been since i put the weigh on in the first place!
    It also puts me within reaching range of my goal to get into the 9st catagoy before the uni's summer ball on the 28th may (5 weeks)

    i really wish i was out walking today - its so lovely out! but im stuck in the library working on an essay (oh joy!)

    hope you are all having a better weekend!

    good TV tonight though so i might go on the wii free step whilst watching total wipeout, doctor who and over the rainbow :p
