[kered]

Go you, well done. I think it helps a lot if we can get some exercise into our lifestyle. I for one could be doing with a kick up the backside in regards to exercise, I am just so not turned on by exercising. I do love the wii fit though.

 

[Taylor]

I too need a kick up the behind to do some exercise but I am playing table tennis and waterskiing on the Wii fit, that takes it out of you, I definately feel the affects the next day.

 

[summergurl]

Very proud of myself today for going to the gym on a saturday and for not pigging myself out in the mornings like i have done for the past god knows how many saturdays! by midday i wouldve had atleast 1 packet crisp and some chocolate but today i havnt - i didnt even take any to work which i am proud of. i know thats a little sad lol

Although i have bought a bottle of rose to have tonight :giggle:

Also, today was the last of my early shift. I start nights from next week, 1am - 6am!

edit: so drank the bottle of wine, had my dinner :drool: loved the cod cakes, only 185 cals for 2! scrummy! Have bunged some braising steak, carrots & potatoes with onion gravy, tinned toms and some soy sauce, dried mixed herbs s&p and oxo cube in the slow cooker in prep for tomorrows lunch. Will start that before i go to bed.

Mum and dad are down the caravan - start of the season so just me, bf and little bro at home so will do us all nice for lunch

Anyways, enough rambling. xxx

 

[kered]

I am impressed Tanya, it just takes getting out of a habit and you have certainly done that today.

Reading the diaries are great, I love to think about food (sadist lol). Only a couple of weeks and I will be refeeding anyway, but I might have a treat on my 4 days off and have some steamed fish and green beans for supper one night.

Hey, welcome to the nightshift club, you can join me and Jan if you have internet access.

 

[summergurl]

I have internet on my phone so will defo be joining you two!!!

Im a little aprehensive (sp?) but for the same amount of hours a week (25) but atleast £100 extra i had to take it i couldnt turn it down. Im such an early burd i love mornings so i think i am going to struggle but i guess it will take some getting used to.

Its weird, ive broken the morning habbit of munch on the last saturday morning i will do! lol

Oh, what 4 days off are you on about?

Im going on exante after paris and thinking of having a few days off in may for my best mates birthday as i missed it last year due to tfr and dont wana miss it again.

Was thinking 3 weeks tfr then 2 weeks refeed with alcohol on day 6 of refeed as i have done the last 2 times lol

 

[kered]

Thats just my shifts Tanya, I do 2 twelve hour days, then 2 twelve hour nights, then 4 days off. I love the shift pattern, its great to have time off during the week sometimes to catch up with everything that needs doing.

What is exante? Is that meal replacement too?

 

[summergurl]

Yeah exante is a tfr too but for 4 weeks worth it is just over £99 which is like almost £50 cheaper than lt so have to do that as i need all the money i can get right now.

Starting exante on the 13th april for 3 weeks actually really looking forward to it.

Although now i have made my mind up about it im a little relaxed over food but i still know deep down i cant be as i have Paris on the 6th for 4 days but i still determined to be as good as i can be untill then for damage control! xxx

 

[kered]

You will get there Tanya, its just finding that balance between the stuff thats good for you and the stuff thats not so good.

I regret in a way that I stopped smoking (especially now that I am smoking again) because I was maintaining really well until then. But hey ho huh!
