Shrimpy

I had a rest day today (day 4) as my legs were agony!!! I couldn't even sit on the toilet without wincing. Back to it tomorrow though before taking my eldest to Nursery as I feel muuuch better after having a rest :) Have my period too (evil witch) so I'm hoping it will help me feel less bloated and better within myself.

Day 2 today and my poor legs are sore :( I don't know how I'm going to manage tomorrow but I WILL somehow :)

Just finished my day 1 level 1 and I feel awesome! Was tough and I realised just how out of shape I am but I am so proud of myself for actually doing it and not making up an excuse! My 3.5 yr old watched and cheered me on and my 21 month old joined in :) I feel ready for the day now. Good Luck everyone!! Oh, my starting…

I bought this in January and it's still in it's shiny wrapper, OOPS! I'm up for giving it a go tomorrow. I am hideously unfit so if I don't post again send an ambulance my way please :)

I'm making spicy sweetcorn soup. It has coconut milk in it (reduced fat though) so probably not the healthiest of dinners but it is -12C here and supposed to be getting colder so I need some warmth in my belly!!!

Brekky; Porridge made water and 100ml ss milk, banana and cinnamon 1 piece wholemeal toast 1 tsp marmalade small glass of OJ Lunch: Baked spud with sour cream, cheese and chives Dinner: Steak and mushroom goulash Rhubard muller light yoghurt Snacks: 1 homemade banana oat muffin 1 truffle (I blame the husband!) Exercise:…

Thanks guys, the plan is just to have 1 with a cup of tea in the morning of afternoon a couple of times a week when my hubbys home instead of the usual cream cake or sugar filled muffin. Sounds daft but it's a little ritual of ours. We get very little time alone together so this is our time ... I sound so lame :o) I plan…

Sorry about the HUGE amount of space it takes up ~ wasn't sure how to condense it.

Thanks very much! If I stick too rigidly to calorie intake I'll become overly obsessed so I will aim for 1200-1500. I really don't want to become obsessed with calorie counting, been there, done that and it makes shrimpy a nut case! :) I'll log my food so I can then look back if things start going a bit Pete Tong. I made…

That sounds lovely but I can't find one in my local supermarket. I live in Scotland so maybe we don't get them shipped over here at this time of year? Boo Hiss Boo!!

Good grief that sounds like a much simpler way of doing things although no sciency bit behind it ... :o)

Thanks Banks, I'm 5"3 and weigh 175.5lbs I want to get to 140lbs (to start with) so that I am at a much healthier weight. If after that I decide I could do with losing a little more then fine but my main goal is to feel healthy and not just be a slim jim no matter the cost. My aim is to drop 2 dress sizes (UK16 to a UK12)…
