I love this team and the people, but real life and the reality of a half and then a full marathon are catching up with me and the training schedule is getting hard, making it very difficult to keep up with all the wonderful and mazing people on here.
I need to step back for a couple of months, (no disappear, just sort of fade into the background while the training is so intense mixed with heavy work load), as I have a half marathon in 5 weeks on the 1st of September, and am running the Loch Ness Marathon on the 6th of October (10 weeks
). Plus, I have extra pressure as I am running it for a charity; Cancer Research.
I'll still set up the Fitbit challenges, but everyone else is welcome to do that as well, it is such an active and motivating group.
We'll leave you in the team support section of the spreadsheet, if that's ok.?.?.?
Yes please, I'll still be here and around, but you deserve a much more consistent motivator 😁1 -

It's the dream! I have an inspirational picture of a lovely house I saw for sale in a nearby village on my desk - it's out of our league, but I keep it there for when spending temptation strikes. We have a lot of repairs to do to our Victorian house before we can put it on the market. We live in the old shoemaking district of Northampton, where the factory owners built a load of terraces for their workers 120+ years ago. And my windows are that old!AustinRuadhain wrote: »@Wishusdonna - Wow! Old Cotswald Legbars are lovely birds.
So you guys plan to love to the country? Soon. or eventually?
Avocado, spinach and blue egg sounds like a lovely lunch!
We are thinking a couple of years of graft, hard saving, a lot of borrowing, and we just might be able to move to somewhere not as pretty. But it will be worth it for the lifestyle.
Payday today so treated myself to pumpkin cake from the healthfood shop. Rest of my lunch today is mainly baby plum tomatoes, rustic French bread (made by me) with a smidgen of butter and salmon paste, loads of spinach and some seafood sticks. Thinking protein, whole grains and veg, just like I've been advised.
Last night, gorgeous dinner of salmon, homegrown potatoes, burned cabbage and parsley sauce. Thinking Sicilain sardine and fennel buccatini tonight, with pine nuts and raisins - I hope my nurse is going to be pleased with me, I'm putting some thought into this!
Yesterday, calories under, water fine, exercise 11346 steps.
Wow - I'm coming to your house for meals - what an amazing lineup! And you are totally kicking *kitten* in steps!

Thursday check in
Calories over
Exercise lower body weights, elliptical
Today calories hopefully under
Exercise strength class and elliptical
This trip is kicking my butt when it comes to my diet! Tomorrow we're touring a chocolate factory so I need to save some calories for that, plus I'm going to a concert in the night so have no clue what I'll be grabbing for dinner. Gym is going well, I enjoyed the strength training class and will do it again today.0 -

I am so thankful for all of my Slimpossible teammates!! For me ( and maybe others), it is so easy to slip when you are feeling that you’re on this tough road all by yourself. I’ve never felt alone for a moment here, and it helped me to stay on track. It was also fun to share some high points (like the day I hauled every single one of my oversized clothes to the Thrift Shop) with so many who could relate to my joy that day.
On to August!3 -
