Stormy Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I need to get some scales as no idea what I've gained of anything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz51 Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 My scales are without battery. I KNOW I'm o/w. The stretchy jeans fit but my Levis, Wranglers do not any more despite same size!! Must get my Stepper Exerciser back because just doing 20 second bursts, one min rest, then repeat over max 15 mins - as fast as possible, really gets cardiovascular going and improving slack lungs. I was really fit in my youth and up to my late thirties. Squash, tennis, riding, swimming, running, dinghy sailing and racing kept me fit and wiry. Marriage, kids - fine until my third at nearly 42 (all problematical, early and emergency Ceasarian) and I ballooned. Crept up from 10 to a 12. Stable after 2nd at nearly 40 then size 14 - but looked good (although wanted 'tummy tuck' to rid Ceasarian 'fold'. Now a very unhappy 14.5 stone (I think) at 5'7" but muscle tone awful although legs strong as I live in Sketchers Shapeups - (kindest to my 40 year nursing [flat] feet and bunions! Lol) Not happy with this. Keep going for Ryvita NOT bread. Porridge NOT cereal. All slow release energy. Fruit smoothies (ready cut/frozen from Aldi) wirh Cranberry juice and Mqgrowska or Kefir yoghurt. These are filling and healthy. (Bit hard to take in winter so porridge is great. Keep portions small. I forbid crisps in house but mixed nuts and lots of fruit - NO other nibbles. Go for fit not dried - high sugar. 'Health' Snack bars also fatal - very high sugars!!! You can burn off dinner faster with walking dog/s out for a fast 45-60 minutes. If you do it before your, metabolism is still going... At 63 I'm disgusted. Now, the two year decline due to anaemia diagnosed only after a gallstone attack end of Sep 2014! (so long time I had extreme loss of energy, ergo fitness, then a fall Dec 30 and finally Shingles mid Jan) after three months on iron I'm certainly doing more but weary after six hours. My early medical retirement at 61 due to crumbling neck (severe degenerative cervical spondylosis) also limits me as crushing pain kicks in with spasm - IF I don't take the painkillers (I do get carried away and forget) ! I am back to using my Abdo pack for passive stomach muscle toning. God it hurts if too much, too long but the waistline shrinks and... my abdominal roller....(start with ten over three days...or you will be really sore!) (www.amazon.co.uk) HOWEVER.....power walking is the best (with dogs). When I was training six months pre half marathon 2010 it was noticed how my legs bum and waist really toned and shrank! Go for it. "If it is to be it's up to me". Write it out. Pin it on fridge, bathroom mirror, bedside lamp and DO IT. Put your fav coloured 'calender dot' everywhere to remind you of your goal. Keep saying " I AM DOING THIS!" NEVER use the word 'try' never ever... No one can make YOU feel bad without YOUR PERMISSION. New Year...New Me!!

Alicia Doyle Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I was so skinny until I had Josh n I was still quite slim after him but it messed up my metabolism and it just kept creeping on. I couldn't b bothered to do anything about it until lately lost nearly 2 stone n now I don't care again even though I have way more to loose I'm here with a bag of sweets n know I shouldn't but I just find it hard to care about much lately. Once I can get Josh to school and back that's as much effort I can put into things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachael_Astro Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 How's everyone getting on! I keep losing 2 lbs then putting it on again, not doing very well So I've booked in with a nutritionist so she can help me see where I'm going wrong food wise, and I've starting going to kettle bells, TRX training and boxercise. Hope that works! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
