I never Introduced myself either! I know we are into a new month together but I love your little intros guys, love to here from the new joiners too if you are willing. I'm Nicole, born in SA raised in the UK. I don't think I have ever dieted or lost weight on purpose before. This year I found out I had ADHD and fertility…

Username: NRTyreman Weigh in Day: Tuesday (6th July) PW: 175.8 CW: 175 I know it's not what I am normally loose but after the last 3 days and 3 bottles of wine I'm a bit shocked it's a lose at all! I am sure it'll catch up with me later in the week but I am back on it, managed to keep hit my 12k ever day and hopeful to…

@krysless2 I get these days! it's worked out on heart rate so if you're particularly stressed or anxious or even had a few too many the night before your heart rate elevates more easily in a flight or flight response (should of seen my Fitbit results when I used to get panic attacks :lol:) I've also done 45 minute circuit…

Well, didn't expect to win the June overall! Unfortunatley I don't think this week's results are going to be as promising I'm afraid. After having to rescue a dog from a rather smelly stream on Saturday I decided a bottle of wine was deserved, no excuse for today though :lol: plus going out for MIL birthday tomorrow so I'm…

@krysless2 I've been Just doing Sundays this month but actually Tuesdays work much better for me and I log it each week already! I logged PW as the last one I posted on 26th June Yesterday got lots better when the nurse and my husband said I was being dramatic, snapped me back to reality hahaha! Username: NRTyreman…

@krysless2 I got a bit confused with how the weigh in worked and just moved mine to sunday, did you want me to post it on here to end it in June for week 5 or should I just post it in the July room? Week 5 Day 6 Thursday 1st July Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 19,673 I spoke to a my nurse and in a…

Week 5 Day 5 Wednesday 1st July Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes (Just barely) Steps - 13,842 Into the second half of the year and it only took half an hour to get completely frazzled. Not sure if my new medication has just decided to stop working or I am just having muddled couple of days! I still can't find…

Week 5 Day 4 Tuesday 29th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 16,849 I went through my average steps for June to date (its split between two apps as I got my fancy fitbit this month), I'm now averaging 15k steps, bit of a jump from 10.5 last month. I won't be moving my 12k daily goal though, anything…

Week 5 Day 2 Monday 28th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 12,920 Today is a pretty big deal, 100 days ago I was sat on this same sofa in 34 inch mom jeans which were a bit too tight and had a chat with a private fertility clinic . She went through all my blood works and I found out I had an…

Week 5 Day 1 Sunday 28th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 28,199 Everything hurts :anguished: we went on a new route by our local lakes and my husband was convinced this path looped around. We ended up in a village over before he finally accepted defeat. Also discovered out dog, pictured, doesn't…

@alpdexplorer you really are improving incredibly fast, congrats :smiley: Week 4 Day 5 Thursday 24th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 19,207 My husbands on night shifts this week and the bundle of joy got up at 5:30 yesterday & 5:20 this morning :tired_face: so I took him out early for a an…

Morning everyone :smile: ! I felt really tired and generally meh yesterday, I didn't feel as if I was giving my exercise as much gusto as normal and went to bed an hour earlier than normal. I am chalking it up to not enough sleep and too few calories, I have been 500 under my target for the prior couple of days before. I…

@naomi9271 thanks for converting to grams, still don't understand how you guys came up with cups as a measurement :lol: Honestly that sounds amazing! 100% going to try it this weekend and let you know how we get one. Do you reckon multi seed bread would work, my stomach isnt the biggest fan white or wholemeal :anguished:

@naomi9271 please share away, probably better than my grenade bar I can't seem to let go off :lol: I am very weird about breakfast foods at the best of times so I either need to keep mixing it up or have a 'safe' food. Grenade bars aren't bad for macros and calories but I would feel better adding fruit and veg but I am…

Week 4 Day 3 Tuesday 22nd June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 19,158 Yesterday I really brought the energy despite a terrible night sleep, probably because I was listening to a very girl power book :sunglasses: and despite the book being a fantasy about fairies :lol: I put the breathing techniques in…

Thanks Naomi, makes me feel better about my oversharing :lol: I'm actually in Oxford, England. I went on holiday to California and Las Vegas about 2/3 years ago. Just a big fan of all the mountains and very jealous about the horse saddles hahaha.

@Krysless2 Sounds like you had an amazing weekend! I really want to travel back to the states again I still can't get over the terrain you guys have, I don't think I will ever forget Yosemite and I am desperate to one day visit yellow stone. Could I be terribly nosey and ask why you went on a college tour? Also I don't…

My sister showed me how to increase the speed because I can't listen at the normal and it opened my eyes to a new world :love: Bit embarrassing, but I only read ludicrous romances that have to involve at least one form of fantasy creature. I am working through all of Sarah J Mass's books currently, sat listening to the…

Week 4 Day 1 Sunday 20th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 17,267 After the little username challenge, I decided to add some similar exercise to my day and kept it up every day so far. Mostly focusing on my core and butt because they are about the same size :anguished: :lol:. I have a slight…

Week 3 Day 6 Friday 19th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 12,207 Had a fairly rough day thanks to endometriosis but hoping today is easier, should of expected it with how painful my…

Week 3 Day 5 Thursday 18th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes Exercise - Yes Steps - 15,505 At least all this walking has given me an opportunity to learn how much a love audio books! I have listened to 3 this week alone, I gave up reading when I had my 2 year old so it's really nice being able to find away to get back to…

Thanks @Waifer003 Well, I am absolutely knackered and it's 10 am haha. I accidently left my house keys in the pram so I had to do 2 trips to nursery and then this awful activity. I will remember this in future when choosing a username :lol: I tag @naomi9271 Week 3 Day 3 Tuesday 15th June Tracked - Yes Under cals - Yes…

The manager at my son's nursery asked me how I lost so much weight last week, I know its for me and my own health reasons but it really does feel incredible to hear it acknowledged.

It actually is because it didn't have gears and me being a total moron didn't realise you could get bikes without gears :lol:

Funny not funny story on the bike front, it actually came last week, started unwrapping it and it looks like its already been in an accident. I didn't even finish unwrapping it, it was in such a state! (meant to be a brand new bike) I also read the instruction and have come to the conclusion I do not have nor do I want the…
