Shazzabir CC Journey to 9st!

Hope you feel better soon xx
 
Hopefully my cold is now starting to go. Going to attempt a 5k run 2moro morning, then a long run on Sunday.
I am not weighing myself 2moro, as I haven't eaten brilliant and I have only been able to do a 30 min run in 2 weeks. Will make up for it though!!!!
This w/e is going to be soo busy. Wrapping pressies, writing cards, delivering cards and pressies and taking my daughter to see Santa, then going to the Panto. I am also going out for a meal 2moro. Somehow got to fit an 8 mile run in, clean the house and do the washing / ironing..........not enough hours in the day!!
Still only a few more days at work then 11 days off!!!
 
Haha you sound busy!
 
I can't believe you still have that flipping cold, it just doesn't want to go away does it!
 
Sorry the cold isn't shifting. There is so much going round at the moment though, I' not surprised! I have found a great remedy for everything from colds to winter blues to lack of festive spirit...........Crabbies mulled ginger wine!! It's amazing. Like Christmas in a glass.

Start the count down to your time off, that always helps. :)
 
Think it is finally starting to go. Least I won't be suffering over Xmas.
I am drinking hot lemon, ginger and honey drinks at the moment. Crabbies sounds a better option though!!
 
Aww yay, I hope it does go so that you can have a cold free christmas!
 
2.5 days at work then finished for Xmas!!!!! In the new year I go back to a 4 day week, so quite excited about that!
My week going ok at the moment. I did an 8 mile run on Sunday and I'm about ready to go for a run now. Xmas chocs are doing my head in though, they are everywhere!!!!!!!! I did lose my willpower yesterday and had a handful. Not going to worry as its the first time I have. I felt sick afterwards as well, so will try to remember that feeling when the urge takes me again.

Cold has gone 95%, so hopefully it will finally go now. Still taking hot lemon, ginger, honey drinks and fruit smoothies just in case.
 
Thats good to hear! And youre allowed a few choccies at xmas :)
 
With all that running you do, I'm sure a few choccies won't hurt. Anyway, it's Christmas!!!

Well done on the running hun, your doing great. :)
 
Yesterday was a really nice day. Drank way too much, so suffering today!!
Food wise I was quite good, I had no puddings or sweets.
I got lots of lovely pressies, including 3 bottles of champagne and a crate of wine.......what do people think of me!!!
My daughter loved it and it was so nice watching her excitedly unwrap all of her pressies :)
Today we are setting our spare room up as a gym, so hopefully it will motivate me to use it. I am in a bad habit where I am only running and not doing anything else, so always using the same muscles. I have a x-trainer and a bike, so going to make more effort to use them.
I am not planning to exercise today, well unless my head stops banging and I actually feel like it, get the feeling I won't be though. Lounging in front of the tv sounds a much better idea!
Planning a 9 mile run 2moro though, so need to do a bit of detoxing now!!!
 
Glad to here you had a nice Christmas and well done on being so good! You have much more willpower then me

Hope the headache eases up soon!

Lol apparently exercise is good for hangovers :p
 
Glad you had a lovely Christmas, the gym sounds like a great idea! I'm determined to have a little one when I have my own place... eventually!
 
Well it's a new year and 100% back on track. I have put a few extra lbs on, but was to be expected, we had a party nearly every night!!! The detox is under way and my body is so relieved. Don't think I can look at anymore chocolate or wine for quite some time!
I have still been exercising most days, including doing a 10 mile run, so quite pleased with that.
My gym is now set up, so no excuses now!
Overall I have had a fab Xmas, don't want to go back to work on Tues, but least I am back to my 4 day week again.

My goals for 2012 are:

1- To be able to run 20 miles
2- Reach my god damn goal weight!!!!

(won't be impressed if I reach 20 miles before my goal weight, lol)
 
Haha. You'll get there this year!
 
Well done for getting back on track, think that's the hardest bit. And I think most of us have gained at least a few lbs this christmas period too but with all the food and social stuff, it's pretty hard not to. You're sooo close to your goal weight, you'll definitely get there soon!
 
I have every faith that you will be at goal so soon. This year will be great for you Shaz. :)
 
Thanks guys :)

I have signed up to run the London 10k in July, I'm really excited. You get to run round the main sites, Picadilly, Hyde Park Buckingham palace etc. It will be the closest I get to a London marathon. I didn't realise how difficult it was to enter the London marathon. The sponsorship is ridiculous, you need to raise around £1000. A friend of a friend of mine entered, but only raised £750, so the charity were going to take him to court, breach of contract. In the end he paid the extra £250 himself!!
Anyway hope everyone is doing ok. I so do NOT want to go back to work!!!!!!!
