  • Thank you all, haha I love the idea of the chocolate milk! Although I am trying to lose weight so a bit worried abotu calories if I make that a habit! I have contacted my trainer about it and hopefully we will be able to adjust for it next time. It's now 3 days since the workout and I'm still not walking normally so I…
  • Thank you. I'm wondering if I should attempt the same workout again next week or ask her to lower the level a bit and do fewer squats/lunges. If I do the same again next week is it likely to hurt less? It actually wasn't that intense (for a normal person) but I am very unfit so it was for me.
  • PW 91.3 CW 91.1 @micki48 Gosh it sounds like such a stressful time for you, but I am really glad to hear you are all OK and also that you will get to have a Christmas just a bit later than planned. I had a lovely day yesterday, cosy at home with my fiance rather than my usual manic family Christmases but it was actually…
  • Hey everyone @conleywoods Absolutely loving those gingerbread houses, wow! You have a little workshop going on there :) I haven't been on here for a few days as we've been dealing with the horrible news that our Christmas is basically cancelled. We live miles away from family so can't travel to visit anyone, so it will…
  • Hi everyone! Just a quick check in as I'm snowed under with Christmas preparatons today! PW 90.3 CW 91.3 :( A bit disappointed but not that shocked really - December is tough for weight loss! @micki48 Wow, what a BEAUT of a gingerbread house! Love it, especially the wreath and the little people!
  • This is amazing. You should be so proud of yourself, that is a huge loss and you look great!
  • @micki48 I love your workout sheet - might steal it for 2021! :smiley: I like the unsolicited advice planner too! You're all inspiring me to start a new bullet journal in 2021. I've been pretty terrible with it this year, but maybe it will be my new year goal to pick it up again properly. I like Ryder Carroll's method…
  • Good morning all! And well done to the team, wow! :) I'm VERY excited that I had an honourable mention haha. Spurs me on to keep going. Sorry I missed the Zoom call - I ended up out walking on the seafront with friends quite late which was really lovely, but meant we had a late dinner too. It was so nice to see people in…
  • Hugs to @Terytha and @CanadianGiraffe @conleywoods that sounds idyllic - gingerbread houses to decorate! I love it :) We haven't had any snow here (South coast of England rarely gets any) but where my family are up in the North they've had some. I can't wait to visit them over Christmas and see everything covered in white…
  • I've done the survey @jugar. I love this forum and it's been just the best tool for me in my weight loss - the fact that I came back after a month off speaks volumes - so thank you <3
  • It's really nice reading that most people are feeling positive and having little successes right now. I'm doing good too. I always struggle to stay under calories on days when I can't fit in exercise, like yesterday, when I had work all day and my course in the evening. Even though I have 1520 calories I think I tend to…
  • @conleywoods I don't really "get" elf on the shelf (don't have kids though) but if it gets kids to want to go to bed I'm beginning to see the appeal for parents haha! Not much to report today really. Another day of working (from home) supporting young adults over the phone with getting into education/ employment... this…
  • @jugar After posting just now I just opened my advent calendar and look what it was... horses in a field! A tribute to your friend.
  • I had a weird day yesterday. I DID get to the gym, but I felt rubbish (hormonal/ PMS/ early pregnancy... me and partner are trying to conceive so I'm in that dreaded two week wait where period is due and I have no idea what my symptoms are!) Anyway I ended up staying only a poxy 20 minutes at the gym, but was determined to…
  • @jugar Wow, he sounds like a remarkable horse. I'm sorry for your loss. It sounds like you and your daughter both had such a close bond with him and that he was very "in tune" with people. It must be so hard to lose him - just like losing a member of the family really - and so suddenly too :( Our bonds with animals can be…
  • @conleywoods 30 min zoom with a 3 year old! Oh my. I guess at least she'll be able to see your face and sort of know who you are? I hope she doesn't think you're just a TV character like Peppa Pig or someone though haha! I also have a "bullet journal" which kind of sounds like a similar thing to your passion planner? I…
  • Oh a team Zoom would be really fun! It will be 8pm Saturday here in the UK so during our usual dinner time - but I shall certainly try to work around it to see your lovely faces! :D I had a really good day yesterday and finally started to feel back on top of things. I had a good workout in the gym, and didn't snack too…
  • Sorry I'm late with my weigh in! However nothing has changed yet: PW 92.4 CW 92.4 Well I can't expect miracles - especially as I haven't properly got back into things yet. Reading about everyone's exercise here is inspiring me though. And I'm loving the silly memes! :D I think I just need to give myself a bit of a kick, I…
  • Update. I said I didn't have a weight goal. I have just seen this thread. Now my goal is to lose an elephant's penis. :D
  • I love this! I've lost a Bald Eagle! (I have held one of those on my arm and they are HEAVY!)
  • @MandiSaysHey Wow, some amazing progress there! It must be such a great feeling to look back like that and really SEE your progress. You look great! @micki48 Thank you, I'm very glad to be back :) Loving that water meme. I'm generally pretty good at keeping hydrated - I drink a LOT of water in the evenings - although this…
  • Oh and my starting weight for this month is 92.4kg That means I gained 0.3kg during the month which is better than I could have hoped for really, considering I wasn't really watching what I ate at all! I think I have been lucky and here's hoping to get that number moving down again.
  • Hi everyone. I'm baaaaaack! I'm Jess, 31 years old from the UK (currently living on the beautiful South Coast) I was on here for several months but then last month my gym closed during a second UK lockdown and I just couldn't seem to keep up my health kick. I tried home exercise but I just can't seem to get motivated by it…
  • CW 92.1 Hello everyone. Sorry I have been MIA. I wanted to make sure I popped on with my weight as I haven't been sticking to things very well since getting back from our little break. My gym has closed under the new lockdown in England, which is a real blow. I have bought Ring Fit Adventure and both me and fiance are…
  • @jugar I've just weighed myself again this morning and it has now gone down to 92.1. Not sure which number to use - the 93.7 seemed like a bit of a freak gain over such a short time! I will let you decide! I'm a bit down this morning because England is going back into lockdown on Thursday for 1 month. This means that my…
  • PW 91.6 CW 93.7 :s Oh dear, this was a bigger gain than I was expecting but I have let loose a bit whilst I've been away and we have eaten well. I'm back home now and have been strict with myself today and have been to the gym already! Straight back on it!
  • Hello and welcome, gamer here too! I LOVE Animal Crossing! Although I haven't played for a while now so I think my village may be overgrown :D I just got Zelda: Breath of the Wild and am really loving that (big fan of the old Zelda games!) I just wanted to update also to say I am away on a little mini-break this week so I…
  • @Pearl4686 That looks beautiful <3 Zoning out to nature sounds great. Autumn is my favourite time of year!
  • As we have a fair few walkers on here I thought I'd share this nice autumnal pic from our walk in a deer park yesterday. We also saw deer very close up which was wonderful! Good exercise too as we got onto some hilly terrain and I definitely got out of breath.
  • Heehee, thank you, I'm prepping my glitter and sequins now! :D
