Hi everyone! Sorry sorry, I've been rubbish keeping in touch lately, I know. I'm still logging in every day though and am following you on my timeline, just finding it hard lately to sit down and properly read and post. Work is busy and husband is working nights starting at 7pm, so it's all go. And by the time the girls…

Morning girls! Sorry I'm MIA. All is good, still not exercising and I'm not tracking either, but weight is under control and I'm back in a routine, so less need for a daily focus, other than logging in daily. Really should get back to exercise though, my arms are getting weak :sad:

It's BORING

Emy, well done on your 30+ weight loss, I love round numbers like that! Was laughing about your friend's story about the moody husband and yours. My husband's dad's from Wales too, so there you go! He had a job interview this morning which went well and he also got a call from a recruitment agent and he'll be working a…

How are you all this weekend? I'm feeling bored to tell you the truth. Definitely time to get back into some sort of routine. Weather is changing too, I guess the summer is definitely over :sad: Husband is very grumpy at the moment, which is not helping matters. He is out of work for a while and has been doing days of work…

I'm baaaahaaaaack! All good, holidays were pretty boring but at least this time I didn't fight with my parents :laugh: I didn't track food or exercised, but only put on the tiniest bit of weight, about one lb, so pretty pleased with that. Won't be back in work till Monday and I'll be getting back on track then, for now I'm…

Sorry girlies, no time to catch up here at all at the moment, and I'll be leaving this weekend as well, so I'll bow out for a bit, back in about two weeks!

August is a messy month for me, I'll be away for half of it for a starters! So I guess for this month, my main goal will be to simply maintain.

Bit late, but I DID weigh in on Friday. Lost 0.2kgs, so not a lot, but better than nothing I guess. CW: 61.6kg (135.8lb)

Quick hello from me, will try to catch up this evening, busy busy in work now! All good here anyway, mother's visit is over and done with, she left with our girls yesterday, so they're holidaying in the Netherlands now. I'll be heading there myself on Sunday. Only a three-day working week for me (hence the busyness), so…

Aw Pam, sorry to hear you have been struggling. Hope you'll get yourself back up again, I'm sure with your positive attitude, you will! Love how you went mountain biking! I did a big mountain bike session in the mountains this time 2 years ago, for my hen party (or bachelorette party as it's called on your side of the…

Time for a check-in, hi everyone! All well here, eating seems under control, even though TOM's nearly here and I have been exercising. My mother's coming over on Thursday though, so I won't be logging or anything when she's here, suppose I'll just have to trust my willpower/common sense... :tongue: Brenda that piyo sounds…

Sure

Pam, it's called LIFE! Things always happen when you're making plans right, unexpected dinners, a tempting treat. It's part of life. And it's okay to have them, you just compensate by having a smaller dinner or get some exercise in - just like you did... You're doing fantastic and you're keeping it real. Squeaky clean is a…

Just past 10.30am here, I'm still in bed, waiting for the painkiller to kick in. Another late one last night. After the ghost bus (which was underwhelming) we went to a night club and stayed there till all hours. Home at 4am. Drank a tonne of beer but also danced for hours (DJ quickly realised that we were auld ones so…

Happy this morning, a kilo down from last week. CW: 61.8kg (136lb). I'll probably undo all my hard work tonight, when I'm going out with my friends, but never mind... :drinker:

Wow Cindy that was some willpower! Don't think I would've been that strong. We use this new caterer in the office, A French place. Highly overpriced but soooo good and when that stuff's in... Oh men... I just did my first attempt to run. I did an interval jog-walk-jog 5-2-5 etc. 5.5k in total. Very tough going to be honest…

Haha I clearly was too slow, you already got in there before me! Sounds like tough going that run, but well done anyway! The zoo run sounds great! There's a similar run here in Ireland, which goes through a wildlife park, I really like the thought of that, but it's on the other side of the country, so travelling 3 hours…

Morning! A lot cooler here as well this morning. I went for a late-ish walk last night, didn't leave the house till 9.15 and quite enjoyed it. I was contemplating to maybe attempt a run again soon. Who knows, I might feel energetic this evening. :bigsmile: Hahah at your DD Lisa. How old is she? That's all in store for me…

Thanks for that Lisa. I googled the Stronglifts 5 x 5 and there's an app as well, which I put on my phone. Only thing - and this is lazy me coming out - not sure if I can be bothered with changing the weights on the barbells all the time, seems very annoying to keep having to take a break. I know, nonsense issue... Very…

No excuses, I just ate too much.

Hello my lovelies, finally time for a catch-up. Best open two browser windows, I'm behind! Very very warm and humid here, if only those blimmin clouds would go, we'd have a scorcher here as well. I only managed a walk last night and not even a very fast one and I doubt I'll do much more this evening. This weather zaps the…

Just a quick wave hello from me: Soooo busy in work, chat again soon..!

Mooorning everyone! Didn't check in yesterday, we unexpectedly had people over from London, who we showed around. Went to Howth, cute little coastal village, watched the seals, did a short hill walk, and had lunch and a few obligatory pints of course. I gave up tracking after my first cappuccino :laugh: Did some…

Get the cake! Your son will be so disappointed if there isn't any! Whenever there's a birthday in our house the banners go up and a cake is bought. We sing Happy Birthday and blow out candles and all. Mainly for the children, but I always think it's a nice touch anyway, for whoever's birthday it is. Happy Birthday!

Glad you got back into it Cindy. It always amazes me how easy it is to lose track. You'd think that after months (years in my case!), this is second nature and this is easy. But I'm afraid it never will be. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with the weight loss, but I had hoped that this minding-my-food-intake thing would be a…

0.5kg (just over a lb) down this morning. Bit disappointed, after my crazy 4lb binge eat gain last week. Would have thought it'd be more this week. Never mind. Current weight: 62.8kg (138.4lb)

I'm the exact same height and weight as your sister. I've been at 60kgs (which is still my ideal weight because I like round numbers) and I've even been slightly below that, but ultimately I always seem to go back to the 62kgs. I know if I really 100% stick to MFP I will get down to the 60 again, I'm trying, I really am,…

I have been maintaining for about 3 years. I weigh myself every now and then and whenever I go up more than about 3-4lbs, that's when I start tracking here again. As long as I'm at my normal weight, I don't log food/exercise. At the moment unfortunately I am slightly above my ideal weight, so I'm tracking and weighing food…
