fit for october challenge

good morning happy saturday all

today looks like a dull miserable day outside not exactly the most motivating weather but at least its not raining yet
i am hoping to do alittle more walking around my house today not great exercise but as much as i can handle at minute altho walking should really become hobbling im not quite as sore on my foot today but still painful but short little 5mins hobbles around my downstairs thruout the day soon add up and every hobbling step makes me remember wear the right shoes for rain not the easiest to grab

hope you all have a great day

Happy Saturday everybody....

so I am proud of myself this week on the exercise standpoint....I worked out everday monday-sat (today) and burned at least 500 calories at each one...which means I have burned over 3000 calories this week!! My goal is to do the same this next week...but take tomorrow off...this mama needs a day of rest for sure

Good luck to everyone this week on getting your exercise in...it is what makes us more efficient calorie burners and what helps you looks good in tiny costumes

brilliant i managed 1hr mon-thursday burned 500cals and then slipped and hurt my foot but i am being good resting it it doesnt hurt so much now just throbs when ive been walking about on it still im hoping my monday it will be all better or at least good enough for me to do some step if not the trampoline and jogging

sarahliz im glad the weather has improved for you its dry here again but very dull and overcast and rather bleak looking it is drying my laundry so i wont moan too much incase it rains as punishment lol

nelski how good is jillian whipping ure butt??? hope the tastes of philedelphia is good but as im in uk please tell me what will you be tasting because philedelphia here is a soft cheese so im having this image of you eating soft spread cheeses all day

maryff welcome on board ill make a not of you target and we can all motivate you when you need it. i love the sound of a cruise hubby isnt so fusse dbut maybe when my kids are grown up and gone i can convince him we neeeeedd one lol

KatheryneH13 we all have those weeks except men who are immune to TOM dam them lol this coming week is a new week so we can all behere to help you get back on track and acheiving the goals a blip week is just that a blip and easily forgotten well until TOM visits again lol

good morning how are we all this lovely sunny monday?? it finally feels like summer and the kind of weather that makes me want to get out there and do some walking i may have to try and convince hubby we can do something for the 2hrs my little one is at nursery and the other one will sleep in her pushchair. if not i am going to try a little wii step today my foot isnt up to the jogging yet but if i do a couple 10minute sets of step and see how i go not much differant than walking as the wii fit board is quite low and at least i will feel like i did something productive.

what plans has everyone else got for this lovely sunny day??

Monday...started off slightly annoying (i ate tons of salt this weekend and obviously it shows on the scale)...but going to use it as motivation to work out hard and eat even better this whole week. I am heading to the gym this morning for some total conditioning (which usually burn about 550-650 calories) and my goal is to not touch any cookies and no bread after 2pm! Here is to another week and hopefully lose 0.5, to 1lb by friday??

i am rooting for you no cookies no bread and get to the gym oh and pretty please burn some calories for me too lol

i lost a little more today so 0.4lbs since friday and 1.2lbs since last monday which has shocked me as i didnt really get any exercise because of my foot i did do 30minute son wii step today it burned a measly 99calories but its better than nothing i wa sso dying to get on my trampoline and do some jogging but i really dont want to tempt fate and set myself back paitience may be a virtue but its soooo boring when i want to be calorie burning

i hear ya mabrywynn i know i cant be doing all i want yet my foot is still twinging ive been on it all today school run some shopping and the 30mins step on wii and its got a numb feeling inside now and twitches when i sit like i usually do as well as throbbing its like the rock and hard place i so want to get up and jogging if for nothing more than the extra calories i burn but then i dont want to make it worse again part of me is wondering if i slipped in first place because my calf wasnt fully healed from last weekend that or that leg and foot just conspiring against me lol

well done on the cookies i couldnt resist especially when warm from the oven thats why i dont bake them i make cakes and buns and scones but rarely biscuits and cookies becaus ei go overboard with them all warm and soft as they come out the oven mmmm im going to try bake a peach meranguie thingy tomorrow for kids they seen it on tv and all say yummmy lol

hows your date will jillian going nelski has she whooped your behind into shape yet?? lol funnily we are way behind the states on biggest loser jillian is still there with bob and i love it but the uk version well its rubbish the uk contanstants lose maybe what the states people lose in 3 weeks maybe us brits or slower to lose weight or the uk trainers just dont have the jillian *kitten* whooping quite right but it makes the show less fun to watch if that makes sense?

mabrywynn i was extremely happy i also have 3 long skirts i havent worn in years i think i wore them maybe half a dozen times each before i gained weight back i pulle dthem out the cupboard today and tried and they fit one is still a little tight if i had a big meal id be uncomfy in it but for walking around out and about its a good fit the others are great one is even loose i spent a good half hour just bugging my hubby going woohoo they fit hes great he didnt once tell me shut up i know he just laughed alittle at me and how excited i was. its kinda made me more determined and im even thinking of looking for a new dress for october to surprise him when we go out for a meal it has definatley made my bday saturday seem more fun knowing i can look good in something.

today also went well i did 1hr 45minutes walking ok so it was only around shops but its exercise i found bargains on clothes for my kids for eid and school uniform for september and a new pair curtains for my living room silly little things that just cheered my day up even more like me enjoying going out shopping and looking at clothes and thinking ooo i like that and it might actually fit and not look like i shoehorned me into it i even saw a few possible clothes for buying in october if i can have spare money afte rthe drain on funds my kids are needing uniforms how dare they grow when i finally want clothes for me lmao

hope everyone else has had a great day

Just finished a butt kicking with Jillian. A lot of it is rough for me but I'm going to stick with it. I have always thought my shoulders were my weakest muscles, plus I've had rotator cuff issues so I have to be careful with certain moves, but I hope this will help strengthen everything up!

brilliant it defiantely cant hurt to try well maybe it can but it should be good for you in the long run and you have to stick to it as we all need to know if her *kitten* whooping is worth investing in for ourselves lol

happy wednesday already this week is flying past not that i mind because its means im closer to the weekend and my kids summer 6 week break just the first 3 days usually drag for me anyways

todays plans im going to collect my new room curtains not that i am excited but this is the first new pair room curtains in 13years and i am really sick of the old ones now back to the simple things again lol im also having breakfast with my friend in ikea and buying the other curtain pole i need for my door curtain only been waiting for like 12months to buy that then i need drop one kiddy to nursery and do food shopping in les sthan 1hr because this afternoon is the girls summer gala more money but plenty walking around as they drag me from stall to stall nagging mum can we try this can we have that can i have a cake bun biscuit juice and so on

hope your all being good and enjoying the sunshine i know i am
