Thursday 15th March Running - 45 mins Hope you are all having a good day. |

Wednesday 14th March Running/ interval sprints - 40 mins @modath- yeah its beginning to feel like naija harmattan, though this british weather is so unpredictable- tmrw it could all be frosty and cold, then by the next day it's like a lovely summer day. we will soon be the same time zone as naija ( next week) so we will have lighter evenings. I'm a bit worried about the mornings as when I go for my run at 6am it is still a bit dark with the sun coming thru about 6.20 ish... With the clocks going forward next week it would mean by 6am it will still be quite dark, not so keen on running in the dark.. Anyway I'll cross that bridge when I get there ![]() @ ML: my dear, thank you jare. I'm enjoying the running, lest I say it is addictive too. Good workout with the Tae bo. I have that Billy ultimate bootcamp dvd and it's one of the ones I do when I mean business, 60mins of good cardio/ toning. My little girl used to pop downstairs too when I'm busy firing kicks left and right and she tries to join in usually ends up falling over herself lol. I also have to stop just in case I mistakenly land one on her! I've had to combat these interruptions by sacrificing the extra 30 mins in bed to get a head start before the kiddies wake! |

Monday 12th March Running - 30mins @Echala: i like that philosophy. well done on the loss so far and I bet it's such a great feeling to fit into those previously 'too tight' clothes! - and that's just the outward benefits of being fit, talk less of how you will feel inside ![]() Have a lovely day all. |

Sunday 11th March Running/jogging/sprints - 75 mins A new week! Had a long running session today. Sunday is my 'long run' day as I have a lot more time in the mornings. Didnt think i could go as far as i did today so quite pleased with this. Still can't believe how quickly my fitness level has improved in just a week. I've found my skipping rope again and managed to do 300 skips yesterday. Will see if I can incorporate a few mins of skipping into my day this week. New goals for this week: 1.Workouts- including running, some Tae bo sessions. 2. Increase water intake. Ps: Well done HG on the loss, great to see things moving in the right direction and you are really in the zone! ML: well done on your workouts, I see you've been 'shredding' ![]() @all: have a great week ahead. The motivation level is high on this thread, let's keep it that way! ![]() |

Thursday 8th march Run - 30mins Welcome back Gen. I second HG's words. I also now log my food on another site where there can be a better analysis and feedback for me etc. I find that when I workout, there is this subconscious desire to make healthy choices with my food. I have less cravings and binge episodes. Food definitely is a bigger part of weight loss than exercise alone. Exercise has far reaching health benefits though. Uche- you are alright my dear, don't over analyse the cake! You are living the real life, not the dress rehearsal for it. The way you have chosen is a lifestyle choice, not a quick fix, so moments like this are going to happen and are factored in. You are allowed to indulge every one in while, its knowing when to stop and not doing it too much that is the key. There will always be birthdays, parties etc to attend but as long as you are in control of the food and not the other way round, you are fine. ![]() |

Hey folks! I am back ![]() ![]() @HG, ML, Ronky, Agaba, how you all dey na? great to see you all fighting fit and continuing on your programs. Well done guys! Also big helllo to the newbies on here too. ![]() I have been absent for much longer than I initially anticipated. Thank God I am now back to health and strength after feeling below par for a while. I really needed to the rest and time out to get my strength back. Well this week it's back to business as usual. I have 2 mini goals I want to set myself for this week. 1. I aim to work out at least 30mins a day for six days starting today and ending Friday. By workout this could take the form of brisk walking, run, exercise dvds etc. As long as my heart rate is up for 30 mins a day. 2. Log the workout daily on this forum. Ok so those are my min goals for the week, I will assess by the end of the week, then set new ones for the following week. Happy new week to you all |

Tuesday 3rd Jan Exercise log: Level 1 30 Day Shred - 26 mins Brisk walk - 30 mins Hour_Glass: ^ snap, that is actually my routine for January - 3 days Tae bo, 2 days Shred/Ripped in 30. I found last year when I did the Ripped in 30 everyday for like 3 weeks I lost inches but not that much weight loss on the scales. Also felt a bit bulked up sha. Tae bo is my 'go to' for cardio and helps speed up my metabolism and fitness, also mega calorie burn the longer the workout. Good going guys ![]() |

@HG: love your spirit girl! ![]() So All my visitors have left this end and now can get back to routine. The baking was temptation o, but I gave most of the goodies away to family and visitors so none in the house for me to devour! Toying btw starting the 30 ds/ ripped in 30 DVD for my jan challenge. Realised how good it is to set oneself challenges cos then you have something to work towards and motivate one. And they r not too long to do in the morning. Agaba how far, gen etal? Ronke hope you enjoyed your 1 hr dance session? ![]() |
