Hello! I have a lot of frozen veg in my freezer (peas, sweetcorn, broad beans, mixed bags of veg etc) and if I think a meal could use some bulking up then I just pop them on! And because it's frozen it lasts for ages, so I don't have to eat all my veg in the same week I buy it :-)

OMG yes! Definitely a difference! Congratulations!!! You must be feeling so good! Keep going! :-)
-
Brilliant I will check out the sticky thread! Thanks so much! :-)
-
Bump!

Just want to say thank you for everyone's suggestions! I went shopping at the weekend and now have loads of new snacks to eat throughout this week! Hooray! :-)
-
Yes! LOVE Muse! First saw them at Reading in 2002 and have seen them plenty of times since! They are AMAZING!! :-) In fact I think they are the best live act you could ever go and see!!

If its muffin top around your hips (rather than tummy) then squats are brilliant for that! :-)

I also do the salad plan! Today I had grated carrot, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, button mushrooms, some salad leaves, then some cooked chicken and a small can of tuna with some low fat mayo thrown in as well. I also had two kiwi fruit afterwards. My whole lunch was 304 cals (and 92 of that was the kiwi's!) and it really…

Yep I am the same! I only track actual workouts. If I am burning more calories just by going about my day then brilliant! But I dont log them. (And I have a HRM for my workouts so that I know how many calories I have burned during them)
-
This is exactly the way I am finally starting to think! The scales are a lot less in my mind now, I just want to be fit and healthy! Congratulations on your anniversary and thanks for sharing! I hope I can keep up with my workouts the same way you do! :-)
-
Thanks everyone, your suggestions are inspiring! I'm going to make a list and go hunting at the weekend! I especially like the sound of seaweed peanut crackers! Gonna have to hunt them down in Tesco! :happy:

I agree that saying no is like a muscle! You can work it out until it becomes a reflex action! At work people offer me stuff all the time (chocolate, cakes, muffins etc etc!) and I have just learned to say no. On a Friday everyone goes to the canteen at work for a cooked breakfast and I sit with them but don't eat it. It…

I did Wk1 Day1 last night and am glad to say I got through it fine, even though it was raining! I took advice and bought running shoes before I started, I got a long sleeved running top (because of the rain) and wore a baseball cap and hardly noticed the rain at all! All you people who did this and now run 5k - 10k are so…
-
I'm starting tonight! I'll send you a friend request. Anyone else who wants to add me please feel free! :-)

HI all! I'm from Surrey, feel free to add me as I love having UK mates as well! I am about to start the C25K running app as never run in my life and want to give it a go! Just want to be fit and healthy, and if I get a better looking body out of it and lose some lbs then I will be very happy! :-)
-
Have you taken measurements of yourself? I am on Day 8 of 30 day shred and I have lost 1 inch from my hips, but only 1lb on the scale. Last time I did 30DS I lost very little weight but was nicely surprised by the inches I lost!

I have just started blogging as I am actually 100% serious now about getting into shape, and kind of want to keep a diary of what I do and what happens, so I thought blogging through here would be the best thing. I'm not a mum though (not yet anyway!) and I cant promise my blog is very interesting! But I do intend to stick…
-
I am interested! Let me know the group name etc! :-)
-
Me! I am hoping to start this tonight although the weather here is supposed to be awful (rain) so I might hang on until monday....But definitely going to start ASAP!
-
I lost about 50lbs with no exercise by counting calories, and have managed to keep the bulk of that weight off for 5 years now. But I am sooooooo fed up with it! I keep putting about 10lbs back on, then being strict with myself (keeping to only about 1200 calories a day which is impossible for me at the weekends!) and…
-
That is so awesome! I am just about to start C25K to get me running so I hope I manage to get up to your level one day!
-
Awesome work! You look amazing! :-)
-
Awesome! It's amazing when you can fit into smaller clothes! I am just about to start running which I have never done before, but I am getting bored of doing workout DVD's at home, and now the weather is nicer I figured I'd go running and see what happens! I also have a small pair of jeans that I used to fit into a few…
-
That is pretty much exactly the same as me! Lol! I'm not so bothered about my actual weight, as I have never been lower than about 138 anyway, but currently I am 146 and would ideally like to get down to 130, but really just really want to tone my body. Anyone that wants to add me please feel free! :-)
-
I'm just over 140, looking to go down to 130, so add me as well if you want! I know I can basically eat OK (just about!) but it's the exercise that I fall down with. Gonna really push it over this summer as have an amazing holiday to go on in Nov and want to look as good as possible!!
