I am BUZZING atm Dee ... use to get this kinda high when I swam for county. It was really good ...some time to ME listening to music and swimming . Although the Mp3 player wasn't a huge success kept popping outta my ears ~lol~ but nevermind. I wanted to see how far I could swim ...and managed 44 lengths of the pool x x x

Brilliant!!! Well done babe!!! X

Fantastic! Glad you had a god time.....it's a great stress buster.
LOL on the Aqabeat- I wondered how well the headphones stayed in! ;-)

hello lovely,

on the aquabeat front I find the headphones good if you a) put them in before you get wet and b) move the cord between them to infront of you rather than behind you like you would normal headphones, doing that solved all my initial problems, also you have to wedge them in like you would swimming ear plugs anyway i hope that helps x

 

[Trueleame]

Lilac...it did make me giggle at least that headphones that are meant to work IN WATER ....actually don't work that well~lol~

Least it drowned out the sound of the kids screaming x x x

Day 37 ~ 3rd November 2011

Today I am feeling really bloated not sure why? I have been taking 2 pills to stop me being on which seems to be working Thank Goodness as that was really getting me down.

I don't think I've been drinking enough water as the scales aren't being very kind to me today...not looking forward to WI on Friday now tbh. Only time will tell I suppose and I have upped the exercise bit but haven't compensated for drinking more water.

Really need to get back to drinking the 4litres as it does work! Sorry for my lil rant but needed to vent x x x

 

[Louloubellehoney]

Hi Trueleame, Remember you've been exercising lately and you must up your water intake then as well anyway... so that may be the problem with the bloating as you say.... Don`t let it discourage you, you can turn that around today easily in any case chick.... hope your feeling better... It sucks being a woman hey BIG HUGS XX

 

[Trueleame]

Thanks lou x x It was getting me down being constantly on gggrrrr so spoke to the nurse and that's what she suggested so it was worth giving it a go and it has worked. I am going to up my water intake today and hopefully overnight I'll have a miracle loss lol x x x

I can't say I have had any bloating but I DID find I lost less when I first started to exercise! Like you I started with swimming, which didn't FEEL like a workout, so I just kept my water level the same.

But you must compensate....you burn more calories so your body burns more fat BUT ketosis needs water !

Feel free to vent anytime Hun!

[Trueleame]

Thanks ladies for the help ...today I've managed to drink 3litres so far...gonna try and get another 2 bottles done by this evening at least. Lilac don't feel sorry ...I love the idea of it ...just need the things to stay in place ~lol~ obviously have lil ears only part of me that probably is lil ~lol~

Will try swopping the bud bits and see if that helps x x x

 

[Trueleame]

Just swopped the ear pieces on the headset and hopefully that will make a good difference when I try going swimming next time ...might try them out in the bath first

Today I am managing to up the amount of water I'm drinking thankfully but its not easy as I've got a sore throat and feel like I'm coming down with something which would just be about right!

Aw lovey! Well, look on the bright side, if it's a virus that you're coming down with, then the best defence is to drink plenty!
So hey......two birds with one stone!

Take care.

That flippin' virus seems to be going! I have it too the last few days even though there's a sea between us!! I'm finding that gargling with Epsom salts in warm water is brilliant for the throat soreness and (as I'm not gonna start back to TFR til Sunday) Lemsips and Strepsil lozenges are my current staples! Stay warm anyway hun & maybe try teas too if it's hard to get the cold stuff into you these November nights!

[Trueleame]

Yeah just trying to drink plenty but feel absolutely freezing ...gonna get OH to get the winter duvet outta the loft I think when he gets home ...I can then nick the other duvet to sit on the sofa with x x x

Day 38 ~ 4th November 2011

Today was WI at the chemist...I always weigh myself before going and use my home scale weights every week...the chemists is only to please them ~lol~

Home scales are reading ...16stone 12 1/2lbs
Chemists scales were ...17stone dead on...which was still a loss of 1lbs since last week at the chemists. As I've said before a LOSS is a LOSS ...tad hard learning that lesson myself

Feel disappointed that I haven't gotten a better loss this week, but feeling naffy, bloated and like I'm coming down with something. I have also started exercise this week and didn't up my water intake so might be showing in the WI this week. OK dusting myself off and starting again with vigor this week as I want to get the weight moving a bit more than 1lb a blooming week x x x

 

[Denise140]

Definitely the water thing Hun!

I know because I did exactly the same thing! Sooooo frustrating when you've made the commitment to exercise!

But hey! A loss is a loss and that's another pound that you won't have to carry around any more. Plus, the swimming will have toned you up so you'll see the benefit that way in any case.

Hugs xx
