Default Friday 5th April weigh-in

After a bad week with Easter, missing Bob and skipping Step, I'm not at all surprised the weight has gone up a little.

Now 10st1 but Bob is back Sunday so all should go back to normal.

Hope you're all doing better than me!!

I hope that my child, looking back on today
Will remember a mother who had time to play;
Because children grow up while you're not looking,
There are years ahead for cleaning and cooking.
So, quiet now cobwebs go to sleep.
I'm nursing my baby, and babies don't keep.

I'm using this as my base line, I've managed to be simultaneously more, and less than I thought I was!! This morning I was 12 stone dead. hurrah! better than I expected!

Hello, morning all


I started my diet on Wednesday and I always lose a lot of weight in the first week as I retain water.

So I have lost 3lbs so far

9.4 on Wed
9.1 on Fri!

9st 7.5 lb this morning on my electric scales - but think I would weigh more if I'd been to the gym all month since muscle is heavier than fat and my lovely lovely muscle tone is rapidly evaporating!!! Waist is 1inch bigger than it was a month ago!!

7.5 lb and at least one inch all over to lose; doesn't sound a lot until i try to lose it ..... then it just seems impossible!

Well done all......

Well.....12st 6. Not happy - I was down to 12st, but then got sidetracked from the diet and it has all gone back on. Would like to get down to 11st by the time the wedding comes around.

I won't be voting because I'm not trying to lose, just trying to get in shape. I did my exercise video again last night even though I was still sore from the first day, that's 4 days of exercise in a row! I am really starting to hate that woman on the video though I'm starting to hate every part of the video actually, every time we move on to the next thing I think "oh god I hate this part!" :P Award for most painful exercise has to go to laying on my back, legs bent, arms straight out, and small rapid sit up type things. I don't know if it's because I have never used those muscles before or because it comes after a whole slew of other ab exercises, but those are definitely killers! The muscles that have been aching the most the next day though are my sit down muscles, wherever they are, I just know it hurts whenever I sit down! One thing that vowing to do this video unless I do some other kind of exercise has done, is made me try and think of other ways I can exercise so I can get out of doing those horrible squatting exercises! Like tonight I'm going to a Ceilidh at school, that's exercise, right?
