    Struggling to get moving under the weight of the great grey duvet in the sky, today. I always find the turn down to winter a little hard to handle. Oh well, at least the clocks haven't gone back yet.

    Must get off the couch, go for a run with the significant other, and then should do a bit of gyming this afternoon.

    Been spending a lot of time at the gym these last couple of days as I have a really busy week next week lots of late evenings and am not going to be able to go tues, wed or thurs :(

    Lost half a pound this week- not the most amazing loss but at this stage I am grateful for anything!

    Have a great weekend everyone :smile:

    Hope all r having a fab weekend - I'm being good again today - lol - family all round and they got takeaway pizza for tea - I said I would cook but was outnumbered so pizza won - I had a super slim tiny slice and then made an innocent dahl and had that instead :)

    I am dreading the clocks going back.

    It's been such a grey and dismal day here today. It rained all afternoon and I had no internet access.... I was going out of my head.

    I watched the Biggest Loser - New Year, New You dvd to see what it was like. Marginally less annoying than their original dvd. I might give it a go sometime, or I might just lust a bit more after Tony Horton :laugh:

    Woohoo!!! WTG you!! :drinker:

    For me it's been a busy, busy weekend - entirely by design, as I hate being bored and not having anything to do. I think I may have overdone it a little tho, as i woke up this morning with a snotty nose and sore throat! Hoping that doesn't last long!!!

    Have a good week all!! :flowerforyou:

    Hello everyone....
    I have finally lost some weight....!!! 1.2 pounds to be exact....

    It's been two weeks coming.... I think a combination of eating too much caribbean food, my sweet tooth and ramping up my exercise with strength training every other day - completely affected me losing....

    I think what helped this week, is that I did an hour of Turbo Fire yesterday, plus a 2.5 mile walk to the supermarket & back, and also had a lot of calories leftover (was too late to eat anymore)....

    I'm now quite close to hitting some milestones....
    1 pound to go till I reach ONE-derland
    5 pounds to go till I'm no longer 14 stone something....

    As Chalene Johnson (Turbo Fire) says - "Keep pushing play...."

    Hey everyone,

    Been a long long time since I been on MFP properly. Determined once again to get the weight back down. Fuelled by my last few weeks of footie sessions and not being able to breathe properly...or run properly for that matter. Far too many cakes, biscuits and savoury things being devoured at work over the last few months. Back up to well over 14stone which for me is bad news. None of my newish clothes fit again. So first aim is to lose a stone by Xmas, possible definitely, will achieve it, I hope so !!

    Kick started with a full 80 minute football match yesterday so a good start to the week was essential.

    Good luck to all :)

    @marianne_s That's brilliant!! Well done!!! And d'ya know what? Your milestones are so close to mine! I'm hoping I've lost enough this week to reach ONE-derland and if I have it'll put me close to the 5lbs I need to lose to be under 14st. We CAN do this!! :drinker:

    Morning all!!! :happy: ::bigsmile: : :happy:

    I am crowing this one from the rooftops!!! :happy: :happy: :happy: I MADE IT INTO ONEDERLAND!!!! :drinker: :happy: :drinker: I lost 1lbs this week, putting my total weightloss since I started trying to lose weight at 3st!

    I know there'll be ups and downs - but I know I CAN do this. This is the FIRST time in my memory that I've been this weight...:bigsmile: on one hand it's scary because I've always given up well before now, but on the other hand it's exciting, because I'm still consciously trying to lose weight - I haven't given up yet. AND I DON'T INTEND TO!! :drinker:

    So a message to you all, THANK YOU for being there, for being supportive and sharing your highs & lows, because for me they help, help me through my highs and lows and keep me on track. :drinker: :bigsmile:
