Yes today was a new day and a good day as well!!!

I didnt go off a lot from my meal plan of the day.I just had feta cheese and some bbread with lunch the two things i mentioned earlier on to look out for!!!!!!!!!!!!!:reddevil:Things went like this


DAY 1


Breakfast 200gr low fat yoghurt with muesli in.

Lunch Fresh green beens in pot with potatoes and carrots.1 slice of bread.A little feta cheese

Snack low fat dessert made with jelly and pinapple and yoghurt.

Dinner Nothing yet



I mentined that i went to the gym this morning and also managed to go to the tracks and get my 2nd 32 minute run in for theday!!!!Felt GREAT!!!!I noticed that i have increased my speed a little thanks to the treadmill i think!Looooved it~!!!!!

I got home feeling hungry and had my dessert.Its 10 pm and i am not going to have dinner this time.I will probbly just have some water melon,ice cold water melon!!!!!!!!!!!!!:drool5:

I must go take a shower i havent all day.....and it is really needed.The weather is really hot here now!

Mario isnt going to school tommorow so no gym in the morning.ALso i have to take my girlfriend somewhere in the evening so no run then either...I'll do all on Wednesday i promise.

I have this idea of going to the tracks in the morning with my little one and see if i can get it done.I dont know if he will let me though...I'll just see how we feel in the morning!
 
AHello my lovely :)

You and me have been the same.......not posting on here and not working at it as hard as we could. You with food and me with food and exercise. You are doing awesome with the exercise. I am so impressed with the amount you are running. Think back to how hard you found it to start with!!!!!!!

We can do this hun, we just need to be strong and push on thru this hard bit. You already seem to be back on it, i am doing ok but i need to actually do it for more than a few days, which is what i am finding really hard right now.

Sending you lots of love and hugs Xxx
 
Jess, It is lovely having you back. No-one is on trial here & we do not judge one another. I think you look lovely in your swimsuit sweetie. You are lucky to be so shapely. I'm still not confident enough to wear one or even to wear shorts or a skirt as my legs are very flabby & big (in my eyes.) My shape is more like a pear! I am happy with how I look in clothes though so that's a big step for me. I too seem to have lost some fitness lately & will have to work on building it up again & getting really motivated to eat limited calories, with the cold weather. Brrr. Winter is so much harder to find the motivation to move, but I must!

Lots of love for now, xoxo Cate
 
Just wanted to say...


some water melon,ice cold water melon!!!!!!!!!!!!


:iagree: YESSSSS!!!


(icy-cold, delicious and not fattening! What more could anyone want? And you can make it into a great salad, too, with mint and onion and a little of that top-notch Greek olive oil. Brilliant!)
 
Day 2


Breakfast Low fat yoghurt dessert

Lunch 3 eggs and french fries.1 slice bread 1 bowl rice with corn and peas

Snack 1 bowl of low fat yoghurt dessert

Dinner -----



I have been a little hungry today.It was 1 pm and i made some rice then at 6 pm i had the eggs...I didnt go to the gym or to the tracks with mario.We stayed home went upstairs and got his little plastic pool out,so while he played i sunbathed!

I ALWAYS use sun screen but i didnt on my legs cause they are so white,i thought to get a little colour.Well i am so sore now....my thighs are lobster red and not all over,but only the front half of them,they look really silly.

I didnt have time,money or the car to go shop for food so the only thing i had was the potatoes and eggs.I dont really like eating eggs......but...when you're hungry you're hungry!!!!


Thank you ladies for understanding...Thanks so much!


Cate it seems strange its winter for you and summer just starting here'!"But you are right i feel the same way,summer gets you motivated to loose the weight.But winter came be a nice time to plan your sexy summer body!!!!:coolgleama:


Noparsnips i love the melon but not with the cheese.Many people here eat it like that but i just cant bring myself to try that.....plain will do just fine!!!


Kate i often think about the first days with me running for 2 minutes how difficult that was 4 me!Now i can do 33 minutes!and twice a day!I do feel really proud of that little acomplishment!If only i could manage slowly to ncrease to 45 minutes.I think its more that i feel bored at 30 minutes rather than tired.Maybe if i get a new longer playlist!?

I know we can do this its just that we fell off for a qhile but you know that it really counts that we get up and continue!Not accepting our OLD way of life.Its just not worth it
 
Goodmorning!!!

Day 3 today!!!Very exited about this!!!!


I have just come home from the gym,i will log my exercise later on,tonight.

Food plan for today is something like this


Breakfast Yoghurt with muesli

Lunch Lentile soup with LITTLE feta cheese

Things to avoid today is BREAD.And if not possible to avoid then stay at 1 slice only.~
 
DAY 3

Snack Water melon

Dinner Little pasta same as lunch only less.



Didnt eat what i planned too yesterday.

Exercise was running 30 min on treadmill then lifting weights.

TOday is Day 4 will be back later on
 
AHeya sweetie :)

I'm loving the fact that you are doing the 'days'. I really find it helps me to see how far i have come or keeps me focused. And you seem to be in a good place right now and doing great food and exercise wise :)

I am the same as you with running. I find that i get bored after about 25 mins and find excuses to stop rather than being tired. I have found changing my music playlist quite often makes such a difference.

I have burnt myself like that in the past, i can remember falling asleep in the sun while lying on my stomach with a swinsuit on and burnt half my bum sooooo badly, i couldn't sit down for day lol. I really can't think of anything worse that full on sunburn!! Luckly at my age i seem to have a base from year to year and dont tend to burn any more, i actually go quite a nice colour pretty quick but i always use to just burn.

We can definately do this we just need to keep on at each other. It doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as we don't start going in the wrong direction (which i came very close to doing) and i think that no matter what kind of day we have had we need to post something in our diaries every day.

Sending you lots of love and after sun cooling lotion :smilielol5: Sorry couldn't resist :)
 
DAY 4


Breakfast A koulouri sliced with some cream cheese and a slice of turkey

Lunch Lentil soup with lots of carrots in and some potatoe.1 slice of bread.A very small piece of feta cheese

Snack 1 bowl of low fat dessert and a small bag of mini jafa cakes..............................................

Dinner 1 bowl low fat dessert again



Exercise 30 minutes runnin on treadmill.

Shoulder and leg exercise with weights



OK!!!!I had a small bag of jafa cakes......grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...i knew while i was getting them i shouldnt and i did...BECAUSE i made the big mistake to go to the market without having lunch yet and really hungry.............................I will pass this one now...(they did tast great...............................)

I am making this dessert and i am soooo addicted to it tis the 3 rd time i have made it this week.............

I get a kg of low fat yoghurt 2 % and then i mix in jelly Still watery and some pieces of fruit if i want to small chopped pieces then i put it in little bowls and leave in the fridge to set for about 3 hours.they are sooo delicious and not many calories in a bowl.I dont use sugar free jelly i dont like it but still the jelly isnt really bad.I can stop eating it,.....I have made it pinapple flavour,strawberry and today was appricot....I will make another one on saturday cherry flavour and i will try stop.....i dont eat it all alone...marios and G like it!


I have been sweating soooo much at the gym these two days i feel like i am just going to pop,burst from the heat.Its terrible and wonderfull at the same time if you know what i mean.!

At the end of my running the treadmill says i have burnt 350 cals but i know thats not accurate

Then on the machines i still sweat.I use weights that make me make a little effort to lift ,push ect.Not too much but a little.it would be so easier to lift weights that feel like a feather but i know i wont be doing any work.I definatly can feel a HUGE difference in my body from when starting the gym even though the scales say im 82 kilos *(i was my lowest 76,6kg)


Well anyway i am feeling really hungry now,i WILL TRY SO HARD NOT TO GO EAT ANYMORE YOGHURT....plus marios wants a little bowl to take to nursery tommorow....mind you there are 3 bowls left....oh now i wont really ill minch on a carrot.!!!


Kate i hate it when i hurt from too much sun.Everything irritates me,everything that touches me....i am really better today though thank goodness.i have been using lots of different creams mostly nappy creams to be honest but they have help a lot!!!!

I really need to change my playlist.But my hard disc has broken for sometime now.I hade thousands of songs in there.And all the sites i know for downloading music have shut down cause of illegal use ect ect......I need some time to dig up some new websites and get some songs in my phone.I am sure it will help.I dont hurt,my legs dont hurt as when i started,I am not terribly out of breath anymore its just that im bored!


Yes we are fine.Made some mistakes and realized we where going the wrong direction...what counts is that we know it and are here trying!


Lots of love!!!
 
Hi Jess, It's great that you are back on track & feeling good about yourself. Sunburn is so painful! I feel asleep in the sun once with a GF, while our BF's were off walking somewhere. When they got back we were sound asleep & red raw. I can still almost feel that pain. OUCH! You are doing so well now with your exercise that you should be able to get back down to where you're happy with your weight. Lots of love, xoxo Cate
 
doing good no time at all just wanted to show up and say all is ok.Will come back as soon as possible to write

Love to you all:grouphug:
 
Thanks Jess. Do the best you can sweetie. That's all any of us can do. Thanks for letting us know you're ok xoxo Cate
 
ok so i looked back to see what day i am on and i dont know.....how bad is that?I have been totaly buisy theese days.And i havent gone to the gym from last Friday.....when i had my late evening run and my morning one too.I havent jogged either.We have been going to our friends and to the beach.I feel DESPERATE to go work out.Its Wednesday today so i still can do 4 days of exercise this week that is going to be so difficult specially on saturday.


My nephew has come to visist for the summer and we are all going away on Friday coming back on Sunday night.At G's village his parents have bought land and also a trailor.So my sister her boyfriend and her son that is visiting (he is 10 and lives with his dad in Hungary) , Mario , G and me are going there this weekend cause there is a BEAUTIFUL beach near by there and also we dont have money to spend on hotels to go somewhere else.The drive is about 3 hours maybe a little less.

So again i will not be posting and not coming on here,it seems im all over the place.

In a hile G is coming home and we are going to my MIL so i can sort out her tax papers and clean out the high cupboards.Im off to lay down a bit.
 
Oh Jess, You do sound so busy sweetie. Today is today. Don't stress over things or set yourself such high standards that doom you to failure. That's only making your life so much harder. Try to relax & just enjoy yourself this week-end. Swim & play in the sea & have fun & that can be your exercise. Don't worry about things that you are just not up to doing anything about with your busy lifestyle sweetie & just enjoy & make the most of whatever comes along. Thinking of you & sending you lots of love & a big hug, xoxo Cate
 
Ah Cate!your mesage was so...realxing...just what i needed!!!YOu are right,i am really stressing about exercise and i promise its not that i didnt go so many times this week because i didnt want to but because i couldnt and then i felt so terrible....Today i went after taking mario to nursery and i felt the 5 days off it....i really did.It felt great though making it to the end of my run and then all the weights!!!!Its just a diferent worl in the gym i enjoy it so much!

We are leaving tommorow...I had a crazy day today driving around taking mario then going to gym going to MIL again getting mario from school,super market then finally at6 pm we got home from the morning and i got towels and bathing suit and took mario to beach cause my sister and nephew where already there. Came home at 9ish and i was cleaning and tidy up here till now.Its 12 thirty am......

Ok...

Food was ok meatballs in oven with potaoes made by MIL a little to much fat i think in the food but i took care and havent had anything else exept some watermelon.and a couple of coffees.

Today was my second day without my e cigarette and im a little nervous.I stoped the nicotine months ago so i am really addicted to the IDEA of smoke,sucking on the bloody e-cig...I am really proud of myself for not smoking.Its 6 months now....!!!!!I am officially an EX smoker.wow i dont know how i managed to do that!!!!I do still miss it...i really do...I bothers me SO MUCH to smell it but i do miss it...the idea of it.

Well im off now really tired will try get on here tommorow morning to get updates with your diarys

Thinking of you lots of love to you all!!!!! :)
 
We are back.Normal day today!Got up took Mario to nursery went to the gym,Came home had breakfast and have a little time to type this before leaving again to go get mario.


We left on Friday evening went there and we were at the beach most the time.Guess what?When we arrived there it was like 11 pm and i had this little pain in my tummy....i didnt want to think that it could be PERIOD pain but oh YES my periods had come....I was soooo upset cause i was looking forward to swimming and getting a tan.I tried to use a tampon and i just dont like it plus i couldnt get the thing in properly and it just wasnt right.So i sat in the shade didnt play with |MArio,didnt swim didnt tan.....I really didnt want them to think i was pissed off,i wanted them to have a good time and not be the one that spoilt their weekend but i was so pissed off.I didnt show it though!!!

I didnt have any thing really bad and no sweets at all this weekend neither any ice cream.

I missed working out though so much that i was so exited to go to the gym today!

I did a 5 min warm up 30 min run 10 min fast walk on 5% incline 5 min fast walk 0% incline and 5 min cool down.

I burnt 420 cals.

I decided to burn 200 cals more at the gym each time i go so after my run i will walk fast playing around with incline and speed to get about 500 calories burn in total.

I have so much washing to do today,many things around the house to keep me buisy!

I am CRAVING my e-cig............ooooo i must stay strong!!!



Thats on our way home,they stopped somewhre for the kids to swim and had lots of shade for me!Our doggies loved it!Beagle is mine shes Roubi and the White one is my sisters he is Cookie!




And G is letting Roubi swim a little to cool off!!!!



Just a quick update


Went to the super market to get chicken and stuff for us to eat today.They had an offer of buy one get one free my fav mini jafa cakes.

I picked up the 2 went to the cashier but last moment told her i dont want them and left them for someone else to get!I saved myself 398 calories (one pack that is)....i burnt 400 this morning at the gym and really it wasnt worth it!Feeling rather proud!!!!
 
Jess that's great!! WELL DONE SWEETIE!! Bad timing re your w/e away but hope you still had a good time. lots of love xoxo Cate
