Bought a dress (more likely to wear as tunic over jeans or leggings as short!) in last knockings of M&S sale. Tried in two sizes and went for smaller one even though a little snug at the moment. When I was buying it the lady said how lovely it was and that one of her colleagues had worn it. SHe then said (spontaneously) but she's lovely and slim like you
What a lovely thing for her to say! You must have felt amazing following a lovely compliment like that.
Well done on braving French Connection. I wouldn't go in just in case my bum sets off the alarms

Hi, I'm here to follow!
I don't follow a diet plan, but I think SW is the closest of what I've doing. I'm also doing the Couch to 5k. I'm not a big fan of exercises, but this program keeps me motivated to go to the gym because I always want to run more. I'm still on week 3 and I hope it really works!
And, well, I love B&J ice cream, I have to stay away from them every time I go to the supermarket... the small cup is just not enough. I've been replacing ice cream for Fage Greek Yogurt with fruits or chocolate powder, it works, fortunately
Welcome to my diary aka the Madhouse
I loved doing C25K and think running has made a huge difference to my weight loss so definitely keep going You'll pay - once I started, I couldn't stop!
That sounds great - am not at usual group this week but might suggest next timeOur SW group recently did a clothes swap eve, i din't manage to go.....but everyone took some clothing and however many items they took, they could swap for the same amount ?...there was a pound fee to cover room costs...and then any clothing left over our consultant took to a charity shop
im a weirdo all my friends say it but i like to be different lol
Right with you on that CHezz x
Being weird is definitely better than being average
Thats what we keep telling ourselves anyway

Hurrah another work day bites the dust! Have swapped my day off so am off tomorrow which has worked out well cause tomorrow is supposed to be fab and sunny :flirt2:
Aim is to get up early & run before its too hot! Nip to supermarket for quick shop. Then going to a different SW group then I'm heading for the seaside :gen157: LOL but hoping no sharks! Might pick up friends dog for company.
Had lovely exercise session today - did another HIIT session. Its so much fun trying to run really fast & even better when my phone buzzes to say stop :8855:
I tried the meatballs for the first time tonight. I made a spicy tomato sauce with red onions / peppers / chillis and had with some pasta. Was very yummy. Odd that when I cooked them there was a fair amount of fat whereas the sausage give up nothing?!

I could only get the sausages & meatballs - the meals are always sold out but the reviews have been mixed at group so not that bothered to try. So many yummy meals to make and freeze portions!
Its funny had bit of a day dream the other day when running - thought about having t shirt made with fat me on front & Just Do It on the back! Might have to get Nike approval though :8855:

Home-made is always better My freezer has about 8 portions of various things waiting to be eaten! I think next week needs to be a 'use up what's in the freezer' week.
Haha, you should so do that!! You could always add an extra letter to the Just Do It, so it is technically different, but the same

Morning
Been for a run & had my shower. Just waiting for my hair to try a bit before going to supermarket.
Its beautiful out there this morning, lovely blue sky and not too cool. I was brave I went out fully glad in lycra with no baggy top even though was daylight on a working day with lots more people around. I decided its much more comfortable and I don't care what people think :girlpower:
(In fact I do but I'm trying not too!)
Had a couple of random moments on my run - I do find its a fabulous way to clear my head and think about all manner of things! I ran past a Hairdressers which has a blackboard that they write quirky & sometimes motivational messages. Today was very apt to weight loss "Don't spend time thinking what if? Find out"
Also realised as I ran past I'd planned to go look at the gym today - might go when I get back from the seaside. If not that will have to wait for a more miserable day!
Hope everyone has a fab Wednesday :character00238:
