:happy036:Yeah baby!!!....totally awesome!!

Day 6 of the shred, and i got through all cardio!!, including those jumping jacks without stopping!!!, my knee was fine and i jumping jacked right through it!!

Smashed through the strength, and the bicycle ab move didn't defeat me!.

First day i've been able to do the whole lot without stopping at the jumping jacks!

I actually screamed YES!! after those jumping jacks...and jeez, i was sweating my cobs off...but totally loved it!!! :character00115:

didnt't get chance to shred twice today, as was out this morning at 10am and didn't get back til after 2pm, didn't have lunch til after 3pm...so a bit late today.. will shred twice tomorrow

If you are breeziing through the strength, then you need heavier weights.....

If you are breeziing through the strength, then you need heavier weights.....

I was thinking the same thing hun, I do still feel it down my back and in my legs but not in my arms so much. I didn't know if having heavier weights would pull my back to much though

I used to manually lift the elderly of all weights, up down, up down, some of them mere like 20st and tall, even lifting with another person they were still heavy... but I do have natural strength in my arms, so maybe that's why..

 

[Kes]

if you do it right and not go up tooooo far in weights (do it gradually) then you should strengthen your back at the same time.

I think I'll have to go to a sports shop or something and have a look at them..there's hardly anything in this rubbish town though!

I'd better get a move on I suppose. I've my food diary to fill for the last week for my doctors check in the morning, it's with the misery doctor, she's alright but just isn't clued up with the dieting really and doesn't understand why and how you can loose 9lbs in 1 week and only 1lb the next..

The nicer doc who I've seen the last few times has took early maternity leave, so I'm back with misery again.. really hope I have a good loss as her scales were different to the nicer docs..

Have weighed a few times this week...it's been mad, was over half a stone heavier at one point...totally crazy, no cheating or anything!.. jumped on today and there was a 2lb loss, so I should have the same or a pound more in the morning, hopefully!!

 

[Kes]

dont you hate it when your body just doesnt want to show you nice things on the scales!!!!!

 

[bunny_hops]

I know! Hate it, hate it!!.. thinking about getting a second set, like the doctors have.. or is that a little obessive lol!

Shred, day 7 not so good today. Did all the circuits, had problems with the jumping jacks today, my right knee just didn't want to go out I tried and tried but it just wasn't doing it :cry:

Going to ask the doctor for a knee support tomorrow.

I'm gutted, I really want to exercise, I just hate my knackered knee!!!

 

[toofatkat]

Ask him for an Unloader. My consultant gave me one last year as he won't give me a knee replacement as I'm too young. K have to say that although I look like terminator it really helps with the pain.

 

[bunny_hops]

thanks hun I'll she what she says. She told me last year she wouldn't send for me any further investigation into the weight comes off..It creaks and crunches with every step, sounds like marbles banging together, on bad days the pain is constant hopefully she'll give me something...fingers crossed..

 

[toofatkat]

I discovered reflexology for the pain and coupled with the Unloader I hardly take any painkillers anymore. I have a cupboard of ultra strong stuff that never used to work abc now I dont even take them.
I had an arthroscopy in 2005 and back then hd said as I was coming out of the ansesthetic ' the but if cartilage you have left looks like spaghetti. Your knee is chronic and has severe compartmentalised osteoarthritis. It does need replacing but we're not going to do it you're too young!'

 

[toofatkat]

Since then I've been fighting and getting nowhere with them . Its ridiculous because I could get fitter so much quicker if they would do it but they won't.

Hi Bunny_hops! Are you still taking Xenical? I have tried on this about a year ago. Had it for about two months only. I must say, it works! But I had to stop because it's quite expensive and I had this uncomfortable feeling when I'm out. Did you feel the same way?

Hi hun, Yes I'm still taking Xenical. I've lost nearly 5stone with Xenical, and I haven't had any major side effects. At the start I had a bit of tierdness, and a few headaches and at night a little bit of heart burn and stomach cramping, but it only lasted for a week or so, and I think it was just my bosy adjusting to the Xenical, the radical change in my diet.

How do you mean feeling uncomfortable when you were out?

 

[bunny_hops]

Well she gave me tubi grip!!.. I'll try it while I'm exercising and see what that's like, if not I'll go buy a proper knee support.

My knees have been like this for over 2 years..it's got bugger all to do with my weight, I admit the weight isn't helping but it's not the cause, and until they send me for a scan they just blame the weight! It makes me so mad!

I can cope with it fine, they only get sore every so often, but when they do, jeez it's so annoying, getting up steps, out the car etc nightmare! They've been fine til, Friday/ Saturday I think it was the jumping jacks that triggered it this time!! arrr!!

I'm going to make another appointment to see a different doctor about my knee, see if I can convince her to send me for a scan

 

[bunny_hops]

Well I feel like just screaming with anger and frustration!!! My body sucks!! My doctor sucks!!! and my bloody scales suck!!! it all bloody sucks!!!!

Weighed in this morning and I've lost 1lb!! 1 poxy pound!!!...i've not cheated at all, my fat has been so low, I've been on fruit and veg for the whole week, plus a week on the shred and 1 forsaken pound!!!

Whats the matter with me??????!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew my weigh in at the doctors was going to be a bulls up, last month when I went the docs scales weighed me at 2lbs less than mine, so she marked me in... this month, a different doctor and different scales, show I've stayed the same as last time arrrr!! when I haven't!! damn bloody scales!!

I have my Xenical for the month, with a sarcastic, you can't stay the same again... blah blah!!! I haven't you dumb ass!!

My weight loss the last few weeks has been crap, really, really crap!!! I was doing so much better at the start, doing things my way, just watching the fat.. I'm barely eating 15g's a day of fat... I need more fat!!!...

so the plan is...this week, is my way, and we'll see how I go..depending on my next to losses, on what happens, I'm gonna switch to cd for a bit..

God, I'm peed of today!

 

[bunny_hops]

So today is day 8 of the shred, and I'm taking the day off it, I really do want to go and do it, but I'm thinking a day off it will give my knee the chance to get a little better and I will continue with the shred tomorrow as planned.

I feel like I'm letting myself down a bit by not going to do it, but I just know I'm not going to be able to do the cardio and I'll end getting upset and frustrated again...

I've bought some books from ebay..

Jillian Michaels making the cut, The Biggest Looser and I've bought another one of her dvds, the boost your metabolism one

Hi hun, sorry to hear your having so much trouble with your knee, i am the same at the moment with my hip, which i think is affecting my back too, was supposed to of gone doctors today but as usual i found an excuse not to!!

Argh i hate scales, no wonder you your fed. So annoying when you know yourself you have lost weight but the doctors scales dont show it, dont think they take it into consideration that you were weighed on different scales last time. Hope this week goes well for you"!

Thanks hun..what's wrong with your hip hun? It would muck with your back, I have sciatica, which only plays up bad now and again, thankfully!

 

[bunny_hops]

Having a good day so far, I'm switching back to shakes for breakfast, and maybe for lunch depending on how hungry I am. My knee is a lot better today, I was going to do the shred today, but I just don't feel up to it, I want to do but I'd rather give my knee another days rest.

I WILL be back on the shred tomorrow and I'm sure holding off for an extra day is the best thing to do. I will be 2 days down then, so I will have to make up those days.

Have been into town today to get new school uniforms for september, not all of it, just trousers and jumpers, can't believe the kids break up again soon, and for 6 weeks!!!...
