And fruit/vegitable drinks like v8's fusion if you have that have a full serving of vegis and fruit with no added sugars, and doesn't taste a bit like a bloody mary
Thats one of the reasons I hate placement, never having energy to go the gym.
When I was on HDU/ITU I did 12 hour shifts and never had the energy to go at like 9 at night after walking home. Sometimes I'd force myself even though I could just about walk
It doesn't help that most hospital wards have a mass supply of chocolates of patients and relatives :rolleyes:
I know tell me about it! I was on nights this week and we just had masses of cakes/biscuits/crisps! One parent even brought us fish and chips
Nights are the worse! Thankfully only ever had to do a weeks worth
I think they hould ban chocolates being given, I'm not being mean but I've seen the size of some nurse's and it's not healthy!! God knows how they manage to do half the stuff they should :rolleyes:
It's not good! Your method was completely unorthodox!
And saying you watched what you ate or went to the gym does not negate what you've done and it's a bit daft to advocate your quick weightloss with how you've achieved it. Especially when other folk are correctly losing weight in a decent, healthy way. Do you want people to lose weight in the short space, excruciatingly painful way you have?
A lot more praise would have been given if it was done properly.
[/broken record]
Incidentally, I DO feel massive today because I'm so bloaty and period-y and I'm in SO MUCH pain that my planned gym visit has had to be cancelled since it took all my effort to get out of bed this morning. Sigh.
so theres quite a few of you who cant say your heavy!
Aw *hugs* babe
Hey ho and what not! Time to attack the Red Stripe ce soir on t'dance floooooor!
In MrG land (the north east) i have started eating well, homemade soup for breakfast, as i always find hot food its much more to my liking than cold.
Rice and fish for lunch.
Pasta in varying combinations for tea, with the odd bowl of spag bol thrown in for meat etc (and the rare sausage sandwich)
Three weeknight nights a week im going for a 3/4 mile run, with around 50 sit ups, and 50 pushups (not always in one go)
The other two nights im doing around 100 sit ups and 100 pushups with some light weight training. Saturday mornings i go for a short 5 mile bike ride, which takes hardly any time, and i dont push it at all. Then at some point in the weekend i go for a 10mile walk with 13kg of weight in my backpack.
The weight is still as of this moment refusing to shift in any large quantities, but i hope its going to start to soon, and yes i do know that if anything starts to hurt or ache too much to stop/slow down, and take a rest day.
Rest days are planned as sunday and a different weeknight each week, ie one off from running, then the week after one off from situps and pressups.
anyways, 4.2 miles in 33 minutes, in the pissing down rain.
Im definately getting there!
it was good untill my siter got ill and i got stressed and ate loads of choclate.. not blaming her blaming my level of resistance
Im quite a fatty now but i don't mind it just bugs me that others assume im pregnant or something hahaha.. as i was a size 8 couple of years ago and now im ...a size 12/14
i want to lose weigt will go on a diet after my exams and let you know how im getting on..
Anyway, I tried to go on the rower (because I
I know I've put on weight this week so I'm not gonna look. Naughty food is just so tempting
I would imagine that is pretty good as women carry more body fat than men. Big muscley gym men usually have under 10% but I'm not sure what it is for women tbh.
I might join this thread thing when I can afford wii fit....I certainly like the idea of that game!
and i went swimming today with a few mates - and they commented (bearing in mind that they didnt know i was dieting or using the power plate at all) that i look slimmer and my bum was firmer
so im chuffed!!
other than power plating, i cant say that ive been good for going to the gym, but i fully intend on going swimming tomorrow, and aqua aerobics on sunday, monday, tuesday
im determined to get back into my 32D bras by... mid june.... only 4 inches (and probably about a stone) to lose!
I really want Wii fit, I had ago today in Trafford Center and it was great! My bf bought a Wii today which shall be staying at my house
I've tried the boxing on Wii sports and that killed my arms and really gets you hot and sweaty!
No you can get them for like under £200 on shopping channels and in argos!
cost £900 mind u. my dad got it for me as a veery veery belated xmas pressie!! i
id like to know what the difference is between this one and a 6k one tho :eek2: or a 100 quid one for that matter. my dads an idiot really. idve been happy to get the cheapest one going!
:yes:
None of the decent trainers I know bother with them. In fact, there isn't one in the gym I use now. It's more a 'health club' thing, than a 'gym' thing.
I've only ever see women using them, too. I wonder why....................
Imagine doing a barbell squat on one............................ Squat
It's makes my legs go all funny too and my skin goes all tingly, I end up getting a headache after about 10 minutes
The instructor who teaches my spinning and pump class on a friday night has an amazing body! Muscle in all the right places and no fat what-so-ever. She makes you want to work so much harder!
It's probably that than the power plate. Although the power plate has prob done something, but squats and lunges rule :thumb: Even if you do walk like John Wayne the next day
And the group of mates i was out with, who i havnt been out with for a while commented that im looking good!
So something much be going right
Also the local gym/swimming pool/leisure centre is only 20 euros a month and I get paid 100 euros a week so I'm definatly going to join and try and go after I've dropped the boys off at nursery/school and mabye in the evenings and days off. Hoping I might meet some people through it and tone up a bit. I don't watch my weight, I don't weigh myself and go off that I look at myself and decide what "bits" I don't like I want to change. Go off appearance as opposed to going of weight as such.
I just want to live a lot more healthier and have a better lifestyle and am hoping the move will push me into doing this.
BUT until then I'm going to try to go on a nice long walk every week - walked for two hours yesterday in the sun and I can feel my legs aching now and I am going to go lunges/sit ups in my bedroom everyday. How many should I be aiming for?
then the weekafter do the same with 15
then increase slowly
