well i was up at 6 and about to get ready and go for a pre-work run when I got attached by son! I explained I was going for a run and that was it... tears and but mummy i miss you when you run. Total heart string breaking moment.
Needless to say I then ended up with a cuppa tea sat down in cold lounge (heating having only just gone on) watching kids TV!
This means I have to go running at lunch pink day or not!
No breakfast yet but will have cereal.
seeing as i didn't get a run this morning i now have to arrange some lunch so i don't go back to work via the co-op and get naughty stuff!
so looks like bread an a cuppa soup for me! yummy!
have a good one folks!

No sleep last night (honestly - not even half an hour). Puppy howled all night. I am blathered, and I've got to work on my interview stuff for Thursday, so I have to stay awake. Still, did 2.8 mile cycle ride this morning at 6.30am, as couldn't face a run after the long one yesterday. Oh, I'm so tired (and well aware that certain people called Cath, Michelle and Clariss have much more reason to moan than I - sorry girls!).

Hi all

A bit tired last night so I slobbed in front of TV with Mr J. Soup and bread and wine. stuff of life.

Managed to put on 2 pounds over the weekend. I'll have to sort out my level of carbo loading pre race.

I am determined to lose this last stone so will make a real effort over the next three weeks as no racing.

SG gosh that condition sounds horrendous. Much respect forstarting again. Don't lose heart about being big. My best friend is a classic apple shape and quite large. she runs and gets quite a lot of abuse but she is slimming slowly and doesn't wobble as much :-)

My main inspiration for starting running was a lady in Richmond Park. She must have been about 20 st but there she was jogging away. She made me feel ashamed that I was avoiding running due to what people thought of me and I took my first run the next week.

Poor Sassie, try and catch a power nap today.

EP I bet you look lovely in pink and for a good cause too.

DD I hope your run with Vrap went OK tell her we miss her.

Benz maccie, redhead et al, hi there

Morning all, now weight loss this week, but no gain either so not too disappointed. Rest day today, but need to do some serious leaf sweeping after yesterday's gales so that should burn some calories.

Sassie, poor you. Is puppy lonely? Can he sleep with you for company?

EP, like the sound of the slippers, have fun!

Morning all,
I have been very, very bad.. been binging BIG TIME! Dunno why, must be the weather! Talking about weather - we had a power cut all day yesterday cos of the winds and it only came back on at 1.30am this morning! So, there we were, me and the Mr.. sitting around with candles everywhere last night - no telly, no radio, no kettle.. decided to go to bed at 8pm!! Then, couldn't sleep..! Anyway, I haven't weighed myself today as I am truly terrified of the results!! Got a 10K this Sunday though, so I've got to make a big effort this week..(oh, where have I heard that before..). Sassie - oh your poor little girl (what's her name?), is she sleeping with your other dog? Does he like her or not? Try and have a little nap this afternoon if you can.. I am contemplating going for a run.. just cannot seem to get my bum into gear lately.. Have a good day all!

Morning all
Woke this morning full of PMA -Positive Mental Attitude. So going to make this a good day.
No run at lunchtime today as I have to organise and serve a business lunch. Great when you are trying to diet and I have to serve up lots of nicey things. Will try this evening but have a meeting after 5pm and depends when it finishes. But I will try. If not I will use the eliptical trainer.
Have a good day everyone. Catch you all later.

OK, confession time - I didn't get out to run all weekend! And neither have I weighed myself....

Saturday: mother-in-law is in hospital, so in the morning I had to go to Camden to get some new running shoes, and then over to the hospital - didn't get home till gone 8pm and then couldn't face running.

Sunday: spent the morning repairing the shed and rescuing the garden from the gales! And then down to Wembley in the afternoon for Brooooce...

So, this week, it's back to normality, and hopefully I'll be able to get back on schedule, having blown it over the last few days!

EP, I'm alive, although trying to hit a deadline. I'm sulking because my achilles tendons are still too sore after last week's half marathon to do any serious running. I'm not a great fan of rest days at the best of times, being forced into them sucks.

Well I finally got my bum into gear and went out for a 7 mile run.. had to wear my 'fat' running kit though (baggy bottoms & baggy top), and wore disguise of baseball and sunglasses... it's an absolutely beautiful day here today.. unbelievable, considering yesterday's goings-on! Mind you, lots of branches and debris everywhere that I had to dodge. Feel exhausted now, so I'm gonna have a nice, hot bath. The Mr. is at golf (of course..) but when he returns, I'm dragging him to the shops (he doesn't know this yet..!)

Hi DD
It's been real chaos, moved into house from hell and started new job so haven't been able to get near the forums for ages!
As for diet, with all the chaos, it's gone completely to pot and I'm back to square one... I really need some motivation to get me going again.
