"252.4 today. Sick last week/today. Want to start exercising this week. Probably will temper my enthusiasm on my cheat day today which is probably ok. Sugar when you're sick is no good. I did miss having bagels and chicken noodle soup when I was sick though. "
"I have had a clear schedule, so I can anticipate on which days will I need to go without lunch or postpone it to a later time.
On Mon, Tue & Fri, I will join PTL members for lunch. On Wed & Thu, however, I have very many courses. So I will move my lunch salad to breakfast, so I can stick to 2 salads per day.
If for some reason, I only had 1 salad (e.g. joined a party or went out with friends in the evening) then I will compensate for it on Sat or Sun.
I am making healthy and flexible adjustment!"
"Yea 2,000 is average for all humans, which includes men. Women typically are between 1,500 and 1,800 depending on their height, current weight, and activity level. "
"160.6.. i didn't get to workout at all this week. but i tried to control my diet as much as i could and it worked! yay... can't wait to get into the 150s"
"This week I measured my current limits so I can't advance my reps this week since I didn't know my limits but I did lift 3 times this week and next week I hope to push these limits."
"My eating has not been good this week! I’ve had to eat out a lot and giving in to chips, cheesecake and milky coffees! Hope your weigh in is positive"
"Stuck to diet of 1650 calories yesterday. Need to make sure that I account for splurges so I don’t go over. Can’t wait to get the Naked Scanner so I can track results more accurately "
"I forgot to write that I've put 1 pound on this week - I was 11st 4lbs but I'm now 11st 5lbs again. While this isn't the end of the world it was kind of inevitable with the week I've had - putting myself through the wringer mentally and emotionally.
This week I'm getting myself in a state because our Drummer (who has been with us from the beginning of The PommyGranites since it began 4 years ago and he's known Terry for longer) lied to us. He dropped a bolt out of the blue a week last Sunday evening, to say he's leaving this week. It's not the leaving, in itself, that's upset me most but the way he's done it. No notice - just 2 gigs - and he lied saying it's because of problems with his daughter - who has mental health issues - and he has a lot on. However, we've since discovered (through Facebook!) that he's just joining another band, because their drummer has left. We're just getting going with Woody, who replaces Sid full time from the New Year, so we're worried he might leave now. We have got a dep. drummer for Woody's first gig next week but it's not ideal for the band - I haven't told many people yet - although some will have seen the Facebook posts by the other band and their ex-drummer.
I'm also concerned about thrusting myself into a 'Blondie' tribute (1st gig 6th Oct!) - where it's just me and backing tracks. The songs are very challenging vocally and, even though I'm going to Lavinia for coaching, I'm scared of what it's going to sound like. Am I going to be ready - am I good enough - will people just dismiss me as rubbish? Terry's so keen though and doing so much work for it behind the scenes that I have to make it work. It's very scary and I'm out of my comfort zone.
It's Mum and Dad's 60th Wedding Anniversary today and I'm organising the party which takes place next weekend. I've done nothing for the actual Anniversary - which is today - Karen has worked really hard to sort out some lovely things for them both - I feel bad about leaving her to do everything for it.
I feel like I'm neglecting my main job - I really hope no-one's checking up on me as I am doing all my band, Tangerine activity and parents' party stuff while I should be helping to launch new products, create blogs and do marketing for our Dealer channel. I feel like such a fake!
My time-keeping is atrocious too. I'm trying to Micro-block but am failing every day!
I'm not drinking any water and I'm not convinced my body is in the best shape.
I'm struggling to sleep through the night - I wake up after having half-awake dreams about intruders in the room. I have palpatations in the night and hot flushes. God it's a mess!"
"I deserve this failure. I've not been feeling very happy this week so comfort eating has kicked in a bit. Hey ho. I have to take the consequences and I'm disappointed in myself. I will try to get back on track next week."
"First week was a success, just adding 30 minutes of dry land training with my Swimmers before swim practice, and eating clean while allowing a cheat meal over the weekend. "
"I think my goal might be a tad aggressive, although I didn't think so when setting it. 2 lbs a week is reasonable progress. But that might be true only if you have 15-20 lbs to lose. I'm definitely at the lower of my weight scale, so things are going to get tough. Solution? Work harder, I guess! Off to the gym!"
"Love you, ya dumbass! #fuckingcurdsofdeath Today is day one! Watch me dominate this shit!
Now find a weekend where we can hangout sans kiddos...OR ELSE!
Love you, mean it! 💋💪🏼"
"Feel like I'm off to a good start. Down 200 grams. Weetbix for a late breakfast, a few dry smoked ribs and pompom-like 'tator tots' for dinner. Milk and water were my only drinks today. No exercise as still recovering from a cold - stayed home and had an afternoon nap."
"I lost 2 lbs the past week (9/10 -9/17) by journaling my food intake, counting calories. My daily goal is 1,250 cal. I walked PP daily, not 40 min though.... "
"I thought that I would've lost more weight this week since I worked out more this week. However, I'm glad that I lost at least something. Even though I didn't reach my goal this week I feel healthier and stronger!"
