oh well its the end of my 1st week on my diet and i have been quite naughty i have picked at little bars of chocolate and bread :(
i ordered 2 exercise dvd's from www.hmv.com one of them is an aerobics one which hasn't come yet and the other is rebecca wheatly (ex casualty receptionist amy who has managed to lose 12 stone and has dropped from a size 32 to a 12-14) this one came this morning so i had a go of it today while jacob was sleeping. what a great dvd. its a solid hour of exercise it is a mixture of salsa, boxercise and dancing followed by some floor exercise.
right i'm off to my slimming group now (probably to be told i have put weight on lol)wish me luck. let you know how i got off later

Going on a diet is all very well , but they advice you to eat plenty of fruit and vegetables and good lean meat but the price of it at the moment pushes your food budget way up above normal.

Although be prepared for the weight loss to slow down a bit it often does after the first couple of weeks ,they say its best to loose it slowly as there is more chance of it staying off.

Does us good to let our hair down now and again.:-)
i forgot to fill you in on
i forgot to fill you in on my weight last week and after my night partying with the girls i ate and ate and ate all week.
last week i put on 1 pound. :( oh well i had a great time though lol.
i finally fought my fear today and put on a pair of bathers and went to aqua aerobics in aberdare swimming pool. i was so nervous thinking about people looking at me in my bathers but after getting ready i walked through the changing room and in to the poll with no fear at all. i joined in with everything and had a bloody good laugh. i didnt care who was looking at me thats all that mattered was that i enjoyed mysef and burned a few calories at the same time.
and guess what????? i'm going back on wednesday too and i cant wait.
hey bunny, what is your
hey bunny, what is your secret, how long do you exercise for every day?. my weight is coming off, but it is very slow. I do at least 45 minutes a day 3 times a week but its not coming off as quick as I would like it too.
I am eating healthy too, but I do get quite bored of these DVDs, so now I turn the sound down on the DVD put my own music on on the stereo and I find I have more go in me.
Lisa
Good on ya girls. Aqua
Good on ya girls.
Aqua robics is very popular here too and and some of the women going must be at least 80 years of age and not with hour glass figures I can assure you, but at least they are doing something, not just sitting at home mourning that they can't do what they used to because of inactivity.
But I must admit to being a wee bit intimidated by all you fit ladies on here now. It's scary. LOL
Cymro.
lisa to be honest i havent
lisa to be honest i havent really been doing my exercise dvd for 2 weeks (thats probably why i put 1 pound on lol). but on nice days me and paul take jacob for a walk to aberdare park or the country park and i'm always out and about with jacob i hate staying in. i dont think i'm doing very well on my diet this week either as money is a bit tight till the end of the week (monthly pay day) so i find you tend to eat whatever you got left in the cupboards and as all my healthy food has gone i'm left with lots of unhealthy stuff lol
oh well never mind, back to aqua aerobics tomorrow i really cant wait to go now, i'm no longer nervous about putting my bathers on, i was going to take jacob to the little dippers lastnight where a healthvisitor gets in the water and plays music and sings songs with babies. but it was cancelled so i'll go next week. i'm so glad that i can take jacob swimming and that i'm not missing out as my sister takes him nearly every sunday.
Glad you are enjoying the
Glad you are enjoying the aqua robics ,it is one of the best exercises for the whole body and more fun than the DVD exercises as they do become quite boring day after day.
Never be worried about what you look like in your bathers there are all shapes and sizes going swimming to help with their weight loss.
Good luck with it and enjoy yourself.
I do my aqua robics every
I do my aqua robics every night never miss . I wait till Mary is in the shower and then I get in and chase her around until she gives in . then I am to buggard to wipe her down, so i go and have a sit down and a nice long Port, and think about what she missed, if she had only slowed down, AH WELL there is always tomorrow
