Not quite As Planned

Well the new training partner didn't show for the gym , so I did double spin, but I am going in the gym on my own tonight. Any ideas of what to do ?
I want to do some free weights but that tends to be the male are of the gym, so when I venture down there I would like to look like I know what I am doing. I am quite strong and do quite a lot of weights in Studio Strength (like Body Pump) .
I need to do this so if the training partner ever decides to leave his ex girlfriend alone I can whoop his ass at the gym !!!! It is a little bit of motivation for me among all the shit i have put up with.
Onwards and upwards forom this morning, and on to 8½ stone marker again.
I can do it and I will do it !!!!

A Stressfull few weeks

A very stressfull few weeks for me and for the first time ever i have lost my appetitie. That was was the only upside of the whole stressful experience. I am not sure if all the stress is over, but i do have a feeling it may not.
But the good side is I am now back to 8stone lost, just need to stick at that.
Got a new training partner at the gym and after spinning tonight i am having my first gym session with the training partner. I know I will have to push myself to keep up but i think that will be a good thing, cause i need motivation to loose this last two stone.
I am still at slimming world every week and I am going to post more often, so if any one does actually read this I am back, and going to be thinner and fitter.

week 93 WI

A slight gain this week which was a little disappointing, but I have to get over my disappointment and move on and just hope that I can loose it next week.
My motivation is still really good, but I do have the odd treat too many.

Back on plan today, and its a green day, and lots of exercise. I have a busy schedule the next fwe days so I am going to prepare food in advance and try to not let it be the focus, more of something I have to do. If I am bust I do not tend to think of food as much. So in theory it should be a good few days !!!

Fingers crossed

Week 91 WI

Week 91......



Another 2lb off Yippee. I knew i deserved a loss last week, but I did feel it may have been a little more. Allthough I had lost 6lbs the week previous and 2½ the week before that.

I am now feeling like I have got back into the swing of it and would like to keep going this way for the next few weeks. I really must not let anything throw me off course food wise and I want to remain focused.



Circumstances have made it that I am not gyming tonight, but I am going to cook much healthier for tea and have a nice Green day tea of slimming world chips and mushy peas. I have some Rice pudding as well that I can also have and still keep my syns right down.

I have got back to loosing exactly 7½ stone (again) and now need to get back to that 8 stone mark. If i could do that before the end of March that would be fab, if not i will get there.



I also got slimmer of the week at group last night, and the nice thing was that was 2nd week running. It has been a very long while since that has been the case.



Motivation is still good and I am not wanting to eat the large ammounts of rubbish that I had been eating. Finally i am on the move.

So on plan today, meals planned for tommorrow, got to start to think about Thursday.

Did My Plans Come Off ??

Both diet and exercise this weekend have been top class. I so deserve a loss tonight and I hope I get one.
I did Spinning & Gym on Friday and had a go on the powerplate which was quite good.
Saturday did a long walk with the dog and then got my butt to the gym, and did the xtrainer & rower and some free weights, then a spinning class.

Tea was lovely I did slimming world chips and mushy peas with a small piece of cod, and the syn free rice pudding. How nice was that !

Sunday I became gym bunny extodinaire. I got up and took the dos out, and then went to do spinning and aerobics. Got home and took the dog for a proper long walk and then did another gym and power plate session and aerobics class, as I couldn't get to the studio strength class that I normally go to on a sunday.

Diet wise I have only gone over 15 syns once this week and that was on Monday which was treat night. So I am really hoping for a loss tonight. I haven't been this motivated for a long time, just need to hold on to it.
Fingers crossed and watch this space

Finally

Finally I am back in the zone, well I have been all week and looking good for the weekend.

Last mondays weigh in was a good loss, but I still have over a stone to loose to get back to my pre xmas weight. On the real plus side I was slimmer of the week and would like to be it again this week, but that will be a case of wait and see. Realistically I have to loose 2lb to get back to having lost 7½ stone, so that is my mini target for this weekend.

I am not doing as many of the Extra Easy days as I was before, and going back to original and green days, and this seems to work so much better for me.
Gym wise I am getting fitter and my knee is not giving me as much pain as it used to even though i am still carrying and extra stone of mince pies !!!!
I have a really busy weekend so that could work one of two ways for the food plan, but with how I'm feeling at the moment it will be good. I will get back to a more regular posting, just in case any one actually reads this drivel and has the slightest interest in my progress.
Exercise planned over the next few days is spinning, aerobics, studio strength and a couple of hours in the gym on the x-trainer and rower and doing a few free weights.
We have one of those new Power Plates in the gym, but never used it before, may give that a go as well.... I will look it up on the wonderful internet, but in the meantime, any ideas what you do on it or links to pages about it ?

Here's to an on plan weekend food and exercise wise.

Exercise over the weekend

Lots .....

Did quite well with it, but could have done better.

Friday night did spinning and then studio strength, and worked hard in both.

Saturday went for a very brisk 1 hour walk. Had a bit of pain in lower back from a cow pulling me on saturday morning, so didn't make spinning as i wanted to rest it an make sure i could do my walk with the girls on the sunday morning.

Sunday did about 6-7 miles with the girls from the gym that are starting to train for the moon walk in May in London. It was very muddy, but loved every minute of it.
I then did Aerobics, Studio and spinning last night. I was very careful with the weights in studio as my back was still a little sore. It feels better when I am walking and fine at spinning, so as long as I am careful it should be ok.

Food wise quite good over the weekend, no alcohol except a small mug of gluvine whilst on the walk with the girls, but i have been under syns all three days. I am also trying to very steadily reduce my portion sizes, and i am now only having one slice of bread with my breakfast. I had a little sneeky weigh on my home scales and it was reporting a 2lb loss, which is a little disappointing with all the hard work I feel i have put in, but not getting to dispondant till I have had my official weigh in tonight. So for the moment its a case of fingers crossed and wait and see !!!!!!!
