Christmas Tree 4858 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Must admit the weight seems to be falling off at the minute, yet I'm eating more than ever. My advice to anyone struggling is to get interested in cooking. So much tastier than ready stuff, so much more fun and so much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22188 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 i'm right back in the mix after a slobbish few weeks over christmas. so far this week have done two sessions of kettlebells, one spinning and one session of circuits. going to give my well exercised arse a day off tomorrow.

Jill 0 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Dead easy to get back into it I've eaten well during the week and having a rest day today but will be in the gym at 9am when it opens tomorrow. That said, I'll be having 2 Italian meals out tomorrow so I really need a good workout in beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4858 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Had a sneaky mid week weigh in this morning which showed me at a few ounces over 14. Clothes may have been a tad lighter but looks like I'm gearing up to be 13 something by my proper weigh in on Tuesday. That will be around 9 or 10 pounds off in a fortnight and I feel as though I've never stopped eating. Happy bunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Why 2? Had already booked a table at tea time as we had a voucher that needed using, then my Gran wanted to go out for lunch for her birthday (how dare she). Gym session was rotten anyway, might as well not have bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33938 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 11 stone 1, 5 foot 9, fittest I've been since I was 17. Ate like a pig on fri night and again on sat night, ran 6.5 miles today to pay for it. Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 2 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I've not been a member of a proper gym since I moved house last July - just using the one in my apartment block. Whilst it's very convenient, it only has resistance machines and I've missed the feeling of shutting my legs in a car door after doing squats. Joined one of those budget gyms ('The Gym'). Also started getting the train to work and running to/from train stations (about 4 miles a day - not a lot but it's more than sitting in my car) as well. Throw in teaching twice a week and training two/three times a week and it's all go here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Didn't do too bad over Christmas when you consider than not only did I have the usual eating like a pig, but also a new baby to deal with. Got a few runs in here and there and then last week got back into proper running. Had a really enjoyable longer run Saturday and going to get out tonight as well. Finding that I have to just time it for when the bairn gets her head down for an hour or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Geordie 1 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Checked this morning and lost half a stone this year, though no doubt that'll go up next time I check! Eating healthily and walking about 20 miles a week but can't be arsed with the gym or running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4858 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Had a relapse tonight Found a wrapped up tin of cadburys biscuits that were meant to be part of an old aunts Xmas present. Tore the paper off and dunked about 5 before remorse set in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 22188 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 i'm feeling like a right smug git sitting at my desk this afternoon after my 5th session at the gym this week. monday - kettlebells, tuesday - spinning, wednesday - boxing, thursday - circuits, friday - kettlebells. just did a ridiculous session of doubles on the kettlebells. swings, cleans, jerks and squats with a kb in each hand. plus some deadlifts, lunges and military press using just one. i seriously can't recommend this form of exercise enough for anyone looking to burn fat while maintaining muscle mass (the holy grail). it's short intense workouts and it works a treat. i already feel noticably tighter than i did on january 1. going to go for a bodyfat measurement next week but i feel like i've dropped a percentage point or two in just three weeks of training. i'm absolutely buzzing. it's easy to forget how good working out makes you feel. i've been eating pretty clean all week too. can't wait for my curry and wine tonight!
