BUMP!

Hugs, prayers and best wishes to you Robin :flowerforyou: My challenge this week is to run/walk 16.5miles Mon-Wed (Going to Malaga on Thurs) I have already completed a 3.7 mile run today so Im hoping to get the rest done by Wednesday. (Its 6.4 miles to my gym and back so if I go tomorrow and Wednesday then I'll hit my…

I use blueberries (added after porridge is made so they're still cold!) or raisins/sultanas or pumpkin seeds or a teaspoon of honey. I recently started using water in my oatmeal instead of milk to cut down on my sugar intake and after a few days you get used to the new taste. When you take away all the sugar you've been…

Well done! I know how tough it can be at occasions where family & food are involved so you did really well. :flowerforyou: As for me, Overall it was a successful weekend for me too! I surprised myself by working out all weekend. I did a 35 minute run + 30mins of weights on Saturday, Sunday and today so Im delighted with…

Happy Easter Fab Ladies! xxx:flowerforyou:

What a great saying! The Chinese are so wise! :happy:

Hi! The challenge for this week was to try a new activity/workout DVD/Exercise video on Youtube...something you haven't done before and do it for about 45mins. And the weekend pact is just something to help people stay on track at the weekends because that's my biggest downfall! So set a few challenges for yourself that…

Ladies, ladies, ladies! Today is one of the happiest days of my life. This morning I went to the gym to weigh in and I literally cried when I got on the scale. This morning I weighed in at 151lbs! This is the most amazing news for a number of reasons... 1. I am NOT OVERWEIGHT for the first time in my life. (Reason enough…

Do any 'oblique' exercises on Youtube. They target love handles. Ive been doing them (plus lots of cardio) for the last month and finally my love handles are vanishing! Woohoo!! Best of luck! :)

Good Morning Ladies! Last chance workout today! I hope everyone is doing well and staying on track this week. As regards the challenge for this week, I tried a pilates workout on Youtube yesterday it only lasted about 15mins and I don't think I got that much out of it cos I was too busy trying to remember the moves instead…

@bitabee well done on the 96oz of water today! We are progressing all the time! @Janana, here's a tip on how I've managed to up my water intake (Believe me when I say that 3 months ago water rarely passed my lips! I only drank soda, coffee and alcohol so I know how hard it is to start drinking water) I started with buying…

you need good runners pet. They may be a bit pricey (€60-€70) but they are essential. Mine have lasted for 3 years :) You need proper clothes to run in so they dont weigh you down or get in your way. I usually wear a t-shirt and leggings. And run with a bottle of water in your hand! Must stay hydrated at all times! The…

yeah, I was traveling with relatives somewhere one day and my dad was in the back seat with me. We were only going a short distance but suddenly the car starting chugging ans struggled to go up a small hill. My dad started laughing and said there was too much weight in the back of the car and that I should hop out and help…

My uncle is getting married on the same day in sunny Malaga, Spain! The royal wedding will be far from my mind on that day! Woohoo! Cant wait :)

@Jen, sorry your little ones are still sick :( Hope they're back to normal soon x @Lori, that's exciting news about your fitness instructor! Where do you work? I think that will definitely kick start your motivation again. I love it when new challenges/ways of losing weight crop up into your normal routine to spice things…

Kerri, hun, sorry to hear you are upset. You are so happy and cheerful all the time that it must take something big to upset you so I really hope the drama resolves itself soon so you can get back to being the ray of sunshine in our group! I think most of us here can relate to emotional eating and who am I to stand between…

Weekend No.2 = SUCCESS! Yay! Im soooo proud of myself pulling through 2 weekends in a row. This weekend was another toughy. Its mostly just Saturday and Sunday I have to worry about, Monday to Friday are pretty much under control. So yesterday I was working on set from midday. So I had my breakfast and made my lunch & a…

Wow! I really hope your dreams come true when it comes to testing time. Fingers crossed for you most definitely! x

Yes sorry to hear about your injury Shamrock, hope it heals soon and in the meantime you can congratulate yourself on your amazing loss! Great news! @Lucy and Dezil, yes I am 100% with you guys in spirit this weekend! We WILL make the right choices and stay on track for the next 3 days. It will be tough and we may not like…

Well this morning was a disaster :sad: Thanks to TOM Im back up to 157.4lbs. Sheesh I haven't had a loss on this challenge yet! Im getting annoyed!!!! Next Friday better show me a good number or else!:explode: Anyhoo, who's on for the Weekend Pact this weekend? Im gonna take it again even though Ive got 2 loooong days of…

Congrats on your amazing success so far. The difference in the pictures looks alot more than 37lbs to me! You are doing fabulously and you should be so proud of yourself! And well done on your 3 minute run. When I started running I could only last 1minute 30 before my heart felt like it would explode, I only did one lap…

NOOOOO! Hello TOM! Thanks for swooping in a ruining my weigh in this week! Im bloated to no end and Im up 2lbs this morning! (Had a sneak peak, I know its bold!) :sad: :sad: At least I can rest assured the gain is only TOM related cos the rest of the week is going well and last weekend was great for me too. So just keep…

Sooooooo today didn't really go to plan unfortunately. I did about 30minutes of weights this morning before I had to head into town to meet friends. I planned on getting some more exercise in when I got home, like a run or something, but I just didn't motivate myself enough to get out and do it. Also I decided that I…

Thinking of you hun. Well done for battling through and looking after your health when you are experiencing tough times. I know how hard that can be and letting go completely can make the recovery ten times harder. :flowerforyou:

Wowee I just did this weeks challenge and it took me 2.31 minutes (i didn't do the leg kicks with a jump - I did the easy version!) Its was tough and my thighs were BURNING afterwards! Which made me feel quite good actually. I might use this exercise more often for toning my legs. THANKS KERRI! :)

Mini-Challenge: Mon-Fri Goals: 1. Burn 4000 calories 2. Run a total of 15.5 miles 3. Do weights on two mornings this week 4. Drink at least 100oz water everyday 5. No eating after 9.30pm All my food is planned out for the week so if my exercise schedule goes to plan then I should be 'under' in every category. Although I am…
