Pre Christmas 15 6

Post NY 16 2

Am now back to 15 6

Done a couple of half hour staggers, eating better and no ale (not got through tonight yet)

Will batter the 14 stone target, I reckon, and looking at a pakrun in March

Apparently fish chips n peas from the chippy is 1000 calories

Reckon I can sneak the odd one in

14 5 and a park run ticked off

 

Anybody sees me later, no I haven't ridden there on a horse

Good effort that pal.

 

I am running tonight. Regretting it now. Something needs to give an I fear it may be the ale

Urgh. I need to start this. I'm currently 17st 7lb, and that's just too much.

 

Any cardio tips for someone with horrifically bad knees?

Low impact stuff. Swimming would be perfect.

 

Failing that nice and steady on a cross trainer.

Might have to be the cross trainer then, I swim like a brick...

 

Thanks :)

 

Normally at the gym I just lift, but that tends to make me heavier.

Good effort. What's the target Cassie?

 

 

14 stone by the end of this month, was the target at new year (30lb loss)

 

thought that would be easy, now i think ill get there last week of march

 

if i get to 13, im definitely in aids victim territory

 

13 7 will give me a bit of room for blow outs, so prob that by end of may

 

hate running, but thank your bro for me, for his encouragement last saturday  :)

Had a lovely 7k run this morning when back home - round moss bank and then up smithills dean, now I'm doing it more often my knees aren't playing up - just been building up to it and now starting to really enjoy it. Want to get to 13 stone in the next month or so.

Is that not dangerous- big fluctuations in blood sugar levels etc?

it's supposed to emulate when we were hunter/gatherer types. The 5:2 is a pretty successful version of this.

Not unless you're a diabetic - or a borderline diabetic.....

Aye; just thinking about what the mother in law tells me when she was a teacher up daubhill. Kids on Ramadan flaking out.

I know kids may suffer more but still it must affect your ability to do stuff- it does with me!

It'd be dangerous in my house.

 

I'd end up twatting everyone because I was hangry.

That's doing it for 30 days in a row though....
