Haha sorry to keep you all in suspense!
I am in the 10's!! Tra la la! A 3lb loss for me as well as losing my 4th stone and hitting the 10's all in one week! I was 10.13 exactly- no 1/2, 1/4 etc so hoping tomorrow I'll be 10.12!
Anyway, something I've been considering lately is exercise. I have about 2 1/2 months until my holiday but my plan was originally not to exercise hard until reaching goal weight for fear of weight loss slowing down. I just have been thinking I am so wobbly need at least 2 months worth of exercise to help firm up for the hol! But then I think I'm still having good losses- do I want to rock the applecart?!
A plan I was thinking of was doing exercise 3 times a week and on those days having a breakfast like poached eggs on 1 slice of wholemeal bread with the idea of the body not going into starvation mode! I just don't know when to start exercising!
So I went to the leisure centre after school and picked up the group studio session timetable and the swimming one. I have been thinking about swimming the last couple of days and really want to go! I came to a decision that I was going to go- nipped to town and bought a cossie and some eyelash dye so I don't look like an albino in the water! Still felt nervous about the idea of getting my horrendous thighs out but was going to do it!
Got home and put on the cossie- it is really nice but my thighs do look hideous- I think because the cossie pulls in my tummy and is quite flattering- my legs look even bigger because they erupt out of it! I know this but asked OH, 'Do my legs look huge?' to which he replied, 'Slightly!' That's it, now I am in a massive grump and don't want to go
It's not like I didn't know they look huge- as they are- but having it confirmed by someone else has knocked the confidence I had up until this point. He said, 'I thought you'd want me to be honest!' Honestly, I think I wanted him to say something like, 'Maybe a little, but you're ___ looks fine' or 'Maybe a bit but we'll get in the pool quickly, no one will notice.' GRRR men! Grr over sensitive woman alert! I really wanted to go though
Booooo
So what's your advice girls? To start exercising soon? To leave it until nearer goal? Swim or not to swim? xx
