Izzyhew's dizzy start to diet......

Nasty Nick! :D
 
HAHA I can't remember the details much but I remember enjoying it! I love psychology and like to watch the interactions between people so I was totally lured in. Then they started bringing in people who were obviously chosen to oppose each other, one that sticks in my mind was a gay person brought in alongside a person who said they hated gay people - that's not my idea of fun or interesting, that is just an excuse to breed conflict.

Now, today is wednesday weigh in and I am not a happy Izzy! Somehow I have gained 1lb, which I really don't think is deserved as I only had one night off plan and I don't think I over did it so I am much disgusted with my body and it's reluctance to let those lb's go! I have commiserated by blowing 5 syns on 2 jaffa cakes for breakfast lol. (I'll have my proper breakfast soon)

So I can fall into the diet trap of blowing it all, perhaps just having 1 day off, back on it tomorrow, which of course might stretch to just one more day blah de blah de blah, which in my case could undo the last months effort in less than a week! OR I can just suck it up, and hope that next week I lose extra and that's what I'm gonna do! I lost weight 4 weeks in a row, this is only 1 week. I can live with 4 steps forwards and 1 back that's still a collective 3 steps forward. Right that's my internal motivational chat over with so lets get on with our day! Hope you guys are all well :)

loving your attitude izzy, :bighug: am sure you will shift that 1lb in no time. With doing the running every day your body will be creating more lean muscle mass (which i am not going to tell you weighs more as it doesn't.... a 1lb is 1lb no matter what the content!) but.... you can retain more water around the new muscle after excercising, however this should only be a temporary thing and once your body adjusts should no longer be a factor. hope that made some sort of sense.

Well done on choosing to stay on plan hun hope you have a lovely day :)xxxxxx
 
yes it does make sense Lynne thank you, I've read the 'muscle weighs more' thing before and so many people dismiss it, but it *is* relevant, because although 1lb of muscle is obviously going to weigh the same as 1lb of fat, its much healthier to have that 1lb of muscle as opposed to the 1lb of fat, and also leaner because 1lb of muscle is smaller than 1lb of fat.

interestingly although I noted it on the scale I forgot to think about it or mention it here, but last wednesday I was 12 st 10, with 49.2% bodyfat, today was 12st 11, with 49% bodyfat, so there is a very small difference there.

well said hun! oooh i forgot you had those fancy fat% scales! where did you get them if you don't mind me asking? xxxx
 
I love minimins, I've had a half hour surf around and feel quite chilled about my gain now :)

However I have procrastinated too long as I have baby group to attend this morning so I best get my <wide> ar*e into gear and get ready! Not had breakie yet so will probably just have a yog and bring a banana to munch on the way.

Catch up with you all later :)

have fun chick a dee! xxxx
 
I haven't done, I should do though lol. I think I have some measurements from last year might have a rummage later, and take new ones for future ref.

My baby just gave me an absolute panic! He toppled over sideways and then tried to turn and started screaming, when I looked he had one arm underneath him and was trying to turn it looked like he'd dislocated his shoulder. I rushed over and picked him up and I just felt sick I was feeling his shoulder (which retrospectively I shouldn't have -what if he HAD dislocated it? so silly the things we do in a panic) and I couldn't convince myself he was ok, but he soon stopped crying and was reaching out with his hands grabbing the chords on my hoodie (he likes playing with those) and was clearly fine. He's now trying to eat a toy dinosaur.

In other news, this was lunch
WP_20130619_004.jpgPasta, with chopped up left over chicken breast, sauce made with frylighted onions, garlic, courgette, pepper and passatta.

oh the poor boy! your heart must have been in your mouth! mine is always getting her arm stuck under her but luckily she doesn't try to move too much.... yet! At least all is well now... lunch looks yum by the way! xxxx
 
Mheh to the 1lb gain, as you say keep going and don't fret over it - keep up your running and chug plenty of water and it'll be well away by next week :)

Poor Little Ninja, why do they scare us all the time with these scary things? And it'll get scarier when he's fully crawling about huh :( Hard work these little'uns :rolleyes:
 
it was awful at the time, but he's been a happy chappy since so no harm done :)

Additions to the grub for today are 2x tesco light sausage (1/2 syn each) potato and beans.

and quark/sweetner/banana/meringue twas yummy yummy yummy :)

maxed out at 15 syns tho, but that's ok.
 
Boo to the gain izzy hun especially as there is no "dietary" reason. Keep going hun it will come off.

Awww poor little one - I can imagine your panic its awful glad hes ok
 
Keep going Izzy. I hate it so much when there is a gain for no apparent reason. We will get there in the end.
