Busybusy's 4 week challenge

[coffeelover]

Workout looks great. I must start actually using some of my workout dvd's. Menu looks great x

 

[Busybusy]

Morning busy,

menu sound lovely hope you had a good workout!

Thanks x. I love this diet, so happy I can have my staples for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Afternoon busy,menu looks great as always, I might have look for that laden exercise, I have given up on the gym, just too hot. I ding Thu.k I will renew it when it is due in august.

Workout done, really gave it my all today especially the abs section. I was soaking, so sweaty. Upper body is looking good, definitely a reduction in back fat and more tone around the bra strap and back waist area. More definition in shoulders.

Lunch was the tiniest child portion - and I felt so satisfied. I'm a lot more relaxed about getting to goal, I'm actually happy to carry on, on the scenic route. The longer it takes me the more my woe will actually become habit and I think maintaining will be a lot less difficult. Loving the exercising and really hope to keep that up even when life is busier.

Reading around about people doing/considering different woes is making me realise how lc suits me fine. It's the only woe I'm not constantly thinking about food. I feel positively confident that sticking and continuing will help me to lose and maintain without too much effort. Water intake is the only thing I need to be conscious of.

I'm not by all means as slim as I'd like to be but I know I'm getting there in a steady and healthy way. When I get there I'll be holding on to something I've worked so hard for - opposed to it dropping off overnight and being taken for granted.

I hope not to have bored you all. X

Excellent point Busy - and it's sustainable for you too, which is the only way to succeed on it

Hmmm.... Maybe it is the exercise making me feel so positive. It's funny how annoying gym/exercise freaks are.....when its not you!! Lol. Ladans has got a fab exercise for back and it's really paying of.

Can't wait for kettlebells tomorrow either

What's that move? My bra overhang is slowly but surely melting away baby steps, I was even tempted to buy a really pretty 34 bra today but I have lots already.

Aren't we good, hehe x

Morning darling x,

thanks for reading, your such a gem for supporting and encouraging x. The exercising is having a positive effect mentality as well as toning me. Maybe when you've dropped down a bit more you can get into working out too x.

Go for it sammy! I really enjoy it, if you have sky she has a programme on fitness tv Ladans legs bums and tums 2 - not sure if you could record it and do it when you need x, or buy the DVD on amazon.

Hi all,

Had a good day yesterday diet wise. Stayed on plan, however did eat loads later on in the evening. Gonna up food in the day so as to not feel so hungry in the evening.

Lunch was yummi yertersays curry and fried turnip.....very lovely. Going out to dinner tonight, to a Turkish restaurant, gonna have thier donner. It's so lush, not your average kebab shop donner, it's so meaty and natural tasting.

Hope your all winning.

 

[sammy1]

Afternoon, your enthusiasm for exercise is inspiring, I agree about eating more early in the day, when I have a good breakfast (at 11ish!) I don't feel very hungry for the rest of the day,but maybe its because of the heat?

I am going to start, dusted my trainers off so no excuses you are more than welcome although you seem to be focused and doing a mighty fine job on your own

enjoy your meal out you lucky bugger, good donner meat sounds perfect!

Hi sammy,

How are you?

I'm not usually like this, but now I've started working out I'm really enjoying it I need to remind myself of this if I ever get lazy in future.

The heat and stuffiness is definitely starting to annoy now.

Good morning islanders!!

Had a great dinner last night, really yummi donner, lovely fresh salad with halep sauce.......pinched DH chick thigh too, he despises thigh pieces. My only downfall are dates!!! They're everywhere atm due to ramadhan. They plonked a bowl full on our table. I did only have 3-4, hoping there's no damage. Only good thing is they are keeping me regular.

Didn't feel so hungry later on as normal - I guess I need to eat more daytime (not just survive on bp until lunch) planning on having a bp pre workout and a breakfast after. Hooray managed 2l water also.

Feeling sooooo acheeeeey today but will still do ladans work out dvd and stay off over the weekend to allow recovery.

Menu

B 1bp and mushrooms and fried eggs
L Egg salad with olives and deep fried halloumi
D Roast chicken and steamed broccoli and roast turnip

Roast dinners are a winner with the family, it's easy to omit the carbs for me. Only thing hugely missed is nice gravy so if anyone has a lc recipe pleeeease share

Hope you all have a great day x

 

[teeney]

Snap on the bp coffee, it's having too much of an effect on my appetite!

Doing well on the exercise (aches are good so im told, only i dont have any :-(and water, could you sneak more water in there?

My lot love a roast too, I miss the roast tatties and Yorkshire puds though :-( wonder if I could make soy flour puds lol!
