23rd Sept 2019 – great exercise and food day!

Hiya all, hope you are well! Thought I would start this post with a bit of internal reflection. On past attempts, I started of extremely motivated, and then after a few weeks, look for cheats, ie, deliberately not eat anything for hours before weighing. Or deliberately eat something wholly unhealthy as soon as the weigh …

22nd Sept 2019 – prepped and ready to go!

Evening all The key for the cottage we’re staying at next weekend has arrived, so excited! I love this little cottage, especially as we can see Snowdon from it! Last time (and first time) we were there, the owners cat hid before she could grab it, so we had a cat to fuss and feed …

20th Sept 2019 – good food day, a decision about exercise

Evening all, hope you are well 😊 I’ve decided that c25k isn’t for me as it stands. My hip was agony all day. The pain has subsided now, but only because of the magic of ibuprofen. I’m not giving up on it though, I’ve decided instead to do it on my airwalker. This will take …

5th Sept 2019 – another day I can cross off as done well

Let’s start with fluids – 1.5 litres today – WOOHOO! There were 2 teas, 1 with halfspoon sugar, and the other with two full fat sugars. A glass of milk – but idiot that I am I had it in one go, so had to apologise, profusely, to my poor work mates who were deafened …

2nd Sept 2019 – excellent healthy day

What a difference a day or two can make – I’m feeling… not motivated as such, it’s a better feeling than that, I feel the food has been a normal day, rather than a healthy eating day… almost as though my mindset is changing? There’s been a couple of eye openers today, first one, milk …

A rest day from exercise!

Good Morning. Hope you are all well! Thought I would do a quick post about how I feel today – I started using heavier dumbbells in one of my exercises yesterday, and boy can I feel it today! I can feel it right across my shoulders, and my lower back, it’s not a bad feeling, …

21st Aug 2019 – where’s the veg!

Another good day! I was working from home today so managed my exercises during my lunch time. AND did a 3000 step extra walk this evening. I have to admit though, I am feeling a bit sore now! So for morning food, 2 hard boiled eggs, a handful of natural nuts, grapes and cherries. Then …

Exercise – sweating just thinking about it!

I’m lazy, as lazy as a person can be. For a couple of years, Paul and I would go for regular walks, every evening (weather dependent), sometimes going for a good few miles, other times, just doing two miles, that was great, got us out of the house, got us chatting. It did feel good, …

20th Aug 2019 – good day

Hello 👋 I feel pleased with today, I have eaten well and done my exercises. For food I had my nuts, eggs, grapes and those delish cherries, along with my salad – YUM! I feel I should have either left my salad until later in the afternoon, or kept back some of my fruit or …

Not losing weight? Don’t give up!

Hello! This is a post for anyone who is disappointed with their weight on the scales – please don’t give up. That sinking feeling…. You’ve been sticking to your diet religiously, you’ve been doing your exercises consistently, and it’s come to weigh in time. You’re feeling nervous, excited to see what the numbers say, anxious. …
