Good idea to try your dress on weekly so you can see how it feels as you get smaller! How does it feel on this week?

OK ladies ideas please. Im in 2 thoughts about what to wear for my party. It starts at 2pm til the last person drops, its at our house & we're doing a BBQ. So do I wear jeans or a posh frock as Im the party girl?! What do you all think?

Most of my dresses are cocktail dresses & fairly fitted & need heels, so not sure if i need more of a day type dress. Oh decisions!
Have invited 120!!! But hope only about half come!

dress dress dress!!!!

or because your the party girl jeans with a nice top to start and then change into a dress later ;) its totally allowed.


Getting ready to pick little one up from after school club.... and then its off to WI, not sure what it'll be I feel really slim but we all know how our bodies can trick us into feeling slimmer when we've gained. Feel really good though today is day one of my next 100% week :D also feel crazy as I'm all dressed ready to go training and its freezing, why do I do this to myself? I don't know how I enjoy it but I do ;)
 
Really hoping the weathers going to be decent as don't want that many people in the house lol! We're going to put up a big gazebo so if it rains it should be ok.
Was thinking that as well Donna about changing but after one wine i wont remember haha!
I'll dig the dresses out & take pics for you all to see. Just a bit worried as they're more for evening not a daytime party, but being the birthday girl i suppose i can do what i want!
Good luck for WI Donna

Maybe you need a new dress kim!!

I have just totally killed it at the gym lol feel totally awesome. I also walled the 2.5mile from work to the gym and walking home from the gym!
 
yeah Kim put some ideas up. a new dress for day/night time may be on the cards. its your special day ;-)

day two of challenge and must say i get on much better with it if i do it before dinner. hoping to do 2 jillian workouts back back. do i just do the cool down and warm up as normal? probably silly question but just a thought lol

good luck Donna x great you feel so slim x
 
I don't know how you do it Donna but its great that you love the running. I tried an outdoor run last week and I was pathetic lol couldn't cope with the big hills, still working my way through c25k was up to running 8minutes today so still loads til I get to your standard lol!

Kim I would go for a dress and not worry about it being too fancy - its your big day you get to be over the top.

Deb I would just do one warmup at start and the cool down at the end and skip the middle ones. That's what I do if I do 2 workouts in a row.

Farm foods has lots of good bargains for you on sw - 4 mugshots for £1, box of the fibre special k bars 89p, Kelloggs branflakes 89p, 5 galaxy flutes for £1 and packs of mini galaxy ripples for 89p (one of my fave chocs so really pleased to find mini ones!)

oh how many syns for the mini ripple? i was reading on here that places like home bargains and B&M stores sell mug shots which aren't free. if you look at different shops some sell ones with black writing where it says the amount of fat. at the top of pack and some are white.not sure which ones are free but apparently these places can sell so cheap as the ingredients are cheaper and not free like the more expensive ones. double check vicky. would hate you to eat them thinking they are free x

Oooo pics will be good, yeah you can do whatever you want :p You could wear a full length evening dress if you wanted lol.

I'd do more of a cool down and warm up, especially cool down as I don't think she does enough, I swear part of the reason people ache so much after doing it is because she doesn't make them stretch enough.

I don't know why but I love it, killed myself at training today, but in a good way, got put in a group with all blokes which pushed me to try harder to try and keep up with them, enjoyed it though, but after the half on Sunday I feel I may ache a fair bit tomorrow.... fingers crossed I won't though.


Lost half a lb at WI as well, so its good stuff all round on my part.

Little one has a trip to the fire station on Friday now as well, they got a last minute invite, I'm a little jealous to be honest I want to go see the firemen ;)
 
Well done on the half pound Donna. Did you try those dresses on by the way?

How was WI Charlene?

Thanks for the advice ladies. Looks as tho its a dress for me then! Will give it another month & then go on a little shopping spree & see what i can find.

Thanks Kim, I'm really happy with a small loss this week :)

Yeah I tried them on a couple of weeks ago, they didn't fit :( might keep them for a couple more weeks/months and try them on again after more running and when I have a couple more lb's lost, but I think they're labelled wrong and are actually small 6's rather than 8's so if they don't fit then I'll sell on e-bay. I'm not too upset about them not fitting though as I am really happy with my body at the moment, not going to let a couple of dresses get me down.
 
well done donna your doing great. ladies i read on here that you can get jillian Michael's on the fitness channel on sky. i am recording ripped in 30 as i type. how good is that?
 
Thanks ladies, I'm not aching from last nights training either, which is great as I was slightly worried about that. So glad I went as we were unsure with the weather being bad but it actually wasn't as bad as we thought, the roads were clear and once we got into training it wasn't too cold either. Still haven't got rid of this blocked nose now, had it a week and a half, I'm forgetting what it was like to be able to breath through my nose lol.

I've got a bit of a funny day so far, don't know what mums doing for tea tonight, but I'm not too fussed, as long as I find out before lunch so I know whether to throw ham into my savoury rice or whether to have it as a green day.

That's great Deb, let us know how you get on with it.
 
Morning all!

Just thought id share my 7 month bump pic!!

Ill be back on here sooner than you think, time has flown by!!

Gained 2st 1lb and actually feeling good!
