LOL!! What are you like! I bet we could do 3 choccie bickies in under a minute!! xx

 

[summergurl]

Easy!!! Lol x

 

[JanD]

Here ya go :giggle:

Tanya, the gain may not be so bad. Don't stress over it. Just get back on track and try cutting out the naughty snacks for a while.
I'm sure you will love getting back to running again. I hope the knee will be well healed after your holiday.
Hope you stay on track today. Here's to a good week.

 

[summergurl]

I don't feel i've put on much but know I probably have!!

Calorie counting tomorrow and back to running 3x a week. Starting small, 3/4milers and going to up it each week or just see how I feel on the day. I have bought a knee support so will be running with that on. If I feel I can go more mileage/time then I will. I feel a little deflated about my running now, only 6weeks ago I ran 13.1 miles but now I reckon i'm going to struggle to even get to half of that. I know part of it is my knee and its done good to rest but still can't help feeling a bit down about it.

Love the cream cracker challenge.........agree with the choccy biscuits though lol.

 

[JanD]

Tan I understand why you feel down about the running but you really will soon build that back up again and I wouldn't mind betting it won't be half as bad as you think ... OR the gain you're expecting.

Bad case of post holiday blues imho

Hope your night didn't do too badly and you managed to stay awake!! xxx

 

[summergurl]

Night was ok I managed to take 2hours toil so left at 03:50.

General sensus on the rf is that I should eat the cals I burn if I'm having a 1000 deficit but then some have made me feel stupid and said basically 'if I wana be an athlete eat train & sleep like one'. Thing is I know that doesn't make me lose weight!!!

But I'm going with my instinct- calorie count 1,289 a day (worked put from bmr calculator).

First run today after 3weeks aiming for 3miles will update food later too.

 

[x__lis__x]

Good luck with the run. Instinct is a good thing to follow, you'll know from how u feel if you ain't eating enough, time will tell x x

 

[summergurl]

Thanks Lis I always tell people to go with their instinct so i'll listen to my own advice for once and you're right the body will let me know if it needs more

Run wasnt too bad. Physically I felt fine, I even did the first mile in 10mins but the 1.5miles run back was tough because of the heat - its so hot here today, also I had a stitch. I stopped 3times on the run back but not for long about 10-15seconds each but other than that I felt fine which I am pleasently (sp?) surprised with

Time overall was slower than average but i'm not too worried about that right now I know in the next few weeks that i should be back to normal :fingerscrossed:

 

[irish molly]

There you go!!! You have lost none of your fitness. Well done!

 

[summergurl]

Thanks molly Im racking my brains here as to what I can have that isn't 'bad' for me that makes my calories atleast 1,200 today can add a boiled egg to dinner but still need a good 250cslories after that. any ideas??

 

[irish molly]

How about a yoghurt with an apple chopped into it? Or some cheese on crackers or oatcakes.

 

[summergurl]

Already got a yogurt included .... oatcakes :hmm: might take some to work to have with my tuna.
