This was not the plan.

Well done Fraggle.
Is that a weird - unfair - fluctuation of the scales, Rae or were you, you know, kind of expecting it?

I was expecting stability rather than an increase, so it's a disappointing surprise GM :(

I'm still recovering from the not COVID I think, as after any kind of effort I'm totally drained and essentially don't move at all the next day.

Not sure what to do, really.

If you are still recovering, then I would just do what your body is telling you that you need to and not worry about exercising until you are fully better. Manage your weight the best you can meanwhile but don't be hard on yourself xx

Hmm... failing miserably so far. I've managed one of the home Pilates sessions, and not got as far as the swimming pool yet...

I haven’t had 100% success but I have done better than the week before. Fewer units, 3kg+ lost, tracking and 10hrs of exercise.

Tricky week coming up with lots of travel. Off to Heathrow shortly.

Safe travels Welshpoppy and Totriornottotri.

Running as per plan completed. Stayed within my calories for the week which has resulted in another 2 lb loss (4lb in total), pleased with that.

Sweetie
First official check-in after Week 1 and it's been good, I stuck to target calories 6/7 days and I'm down 4lbs :-) If only every week gave losses like that!
My sugar calories were still quite high though, so this week I'm going to try and cut down sugar and up the protein while sticking to the same calorie target and I'd like to get more walking done too.
Well done on the losses Jaks and TTONTT
Hope the race went well WP.

HOW: Alcohol w/end only
No takeaways
Orange Tuesdays, rugby x2, run x1, strength x1

Nightowl: Under 10st by 31 Dec & 15 mpw min.
Drink more water.
HOW: Improve diet - have you done the maths and considered in detail what you need to do?

Why 15 mpw? It’s nice to focus on the process but very easy to ignore without a why - “consistent running will improve PBs”? Will you do 5 x 3 or 3 x 5?

Fraggle: TBC

Sweetie:

Goal: Lose 8-10lbs before Christmas

1850 calories per day

Not to exceed sugar target on MFP

1 x yoga per week (not related to weight loss but need to get back into regular stretching).

Lammo:

Lose 8 kg by end of year

Exercise for 7 hours per week (i'd rather not include walking, but am sure i will to start with)

I want to:

Lose 10kg by Christmas

Run 5k comfortably (might include jeffing, but it’s the comfortable bit I’m after)

I’m doing it by:

10k steps a day (I’ve just hit my longest streak of 18 days)

Counting calories on MFP (Daily calories as per JSA calculator)

3 x resistance exercise sessions each week

3 x runs a week including a parkrun or 5k
