Well I have no idea how much weight I have lost, my scales have given me 4 different readings this morning, from a loss of 2lb to a gain of 4.5lb confused

I know I am slimmer, I am back in my jeans, not my skinny jeans but the ones I was wearing in November. I think I am 3 weeks in to my healthy eating, but I only weighed myself for the first time last week, as I didn't really want to know how much weight I had put on. Might have to try new batteries in the scales to see if that's the problem, I am sure I have lost some weight.

I think clothing is more accurate because muscle weighs more than fat. One week I gained 1 1/2 ponds but went down a size.

Morning everyone!! Just sitting here waiting for the snow to begin. Our area is only supposed to get an inch but the coast is going to get icy and snowy! DH is probably headed there to get things set up for putting power back on for those folks.
I just saw the first flakes!!Smile
So today is laundry and hanging out so I can keep up with my DH's travel. Walking will be inside and light stretching.
Butternut squash chili thawing in fridge for dinner. May make some warm cornbread to go with it!
Everyone stay warm, safe, and move it today!!Smile

King Fergus

OMG... eek Sits down in shock does I....The rain has finally stopped..The Ark has come to rest on yonder hill..Two white doves have just flown by my turret window..Tonight's dinner is home made moussaka using fresh aubergine ( That's zucchini to those of you in the good ole USA ) with a warm salad, ( Yes Mr Ferret, a warm salad doesn't mean you put it in the slow cooker ) So keep warm and safe people,but most important..Keep Dancing.. banana

Good morning LOL -4 when I got up, and say a prayer my electric blanket makes it until spring, the stores seem to have run out of them. JM's 30 day shred level 2, 2 indoor miles and one outside, my friend needed me to run something over and it would have meant more time out if I got the car running. Note to self see a shrink. Lots of soup today, it's too cold for much else. Stay warm and safe and keep moving!

So glad your hubby is safe

Week 4 of 5k training is underway, running in the rain is not fun, added sit ups to my work out and switch my kettle bell training to running days which gives me a full day off every other day. I have reduced my diary, carb and gluten intake massively at the moment I am all about fiber and protein, with pre run carbs. We will get there!

Today was a heat wave in northern Indiana-- a balmy 33F! It has been in the single digits with below zero wind chills for what seems like two weeks!
I've been eating salads and trying to drink water when I feel 'bored hungry'. I'm hoping to get back to the gym, which I've been putting off since I went last Thursday and then decided to pass a kidney stone the next day lol... I hope everyone has a great weekend working toward their goals!!

It is a lovely bright clear day here in Yorkshire, but cold. I'm not going anyway today though, still feel groggy from surgery yesterday but sent hubby and the kids out for a few hours and am now lounging on the sofa.

Been virtuous, even after waking up from surgery I had the wheat free pancakes I had made in advance and some green tea instead of the white toast and tea that the hospital offers. Hoping that even with lack of exercise for a few weeks that if I stick to eating carefully I will still lose weight. And also hoping to be able to restart swimming and yoga after Easter.

Back to lounging for me, hope the weather improves for everyone, keep safe x

Thoroughly disheartened this morning, Monday is weigh day and according to the scales I have put on 1lb.
I am going to blame it on the surgery and hope it's due to swelling and water retention from IV fluids or something. I have not faltered from the path with my food, only had a few small squares of G&B dark chocolate, which I'm allowed anyway. Best find a way to get some exercise this week and get out walking burning off some calories.

Happy Monday, LOL It's 25 and dropping, not only the temps are dropping but 3-5 inches of snow. 5 indoor miles with boosters done and as the boys made it to school, I'll be shoveling later. A very mean green smoothie (very spicy) for breakfast, chopped veggies and hummus for lunch and dinner will be veggie lasagna sans pasta. Stay warm and safe!
