ive put 5lbs on and just cant shift it

Postby muckypup » Sun Aug 14, 2011 9:24 am

ok ok so when i say cant, i mean im too lazy to exercise and find im very pushed for time with h2b working away as ive no-one to mind the kids.
my clothes still fit me grand and im the same weight now as i was when i bought my dress but im so used to been 8.11 the scales just havent said that for a while and after having lost so much weight on ww i seem to be fixated on the numbers on the scales :(

i won a free week trial class of kettebells and thai boxing in my local fitness centre so i will try to organise that for extra motivation but as i said its just so hard to fit exercise in as ive no-one to look after the kids while h2b works away all week - anyone else like this?

You can def do it!!! I find Im gone way way too lazy to exercise!! I get home from work just after 6 and then spend as much time with my lil man as possible before he goes to bed, then its 8pm and I just think to myself f**k it!! Really need to get my ass in gear !! Starting back walking tomorrow night with my aunt - its great having someone else to walk with cause they kick you on when you would rather be in yours pjs :) . Do you have anyone who would walk with you x

:D ah I see what you mean, I just stick my lil lad in the buggy cause he is only 2 when Im out walking, but I wouldnt fancy trying to drag a 5 year old alone :banghead . Have u tried the wii fit, we have one and the boxing and aerobics on it is fab, especially if your wear the wrist weights on your arms while you are doing it

I have been really quiet in this thread about health and fitness and weight loss lately as I thought I was the only one with a ticker in stuck mode!! :) It is soooo hard.... But tomorrow is the start of another week and heres hoping it will be a good one. I have no excuse here but if creating excuses could burn calories I would be a trim lady! :)

I understand that sometimes when people tell you that you're perfect it can be annoying especially if you are used to being a certain weight but muckypup if you are used to being 8.11 and you've put on five pound then you're now 9.01? That in my opinion is a perfect weight and if I could get to that weight I'd be delighted. My problem is that I'm a size ten but am relatively heavy (just over ten stone) so even though I'm fitting into the size 10s the scales is really pi**ing me off and just want to get it down. People always give out to me for being on a diet but when I tell them what weight I am they think Im lying to make it acceptable for me to be on a diet or else just say everybody is different. Drives me mental, my body the enemy.

Hi if you have put on muscle which is heavier than fat the scales won't go down. Maybe check by inches instead of the scales.

Try the jillian micheals dvd - 30 day shread. I got it on amazon for about €10. You can also download it onto your laptop if you want it straight away. It's 20 minute workouts, so nice and short, but it REALLY works - you'll notice the difference in toning etc very soon. You could do it when the kids are in bed then and just make yourself do it again at the weekend, or walk when your h2b is at home to mind the kiddies.

Oh you are talking to your sister!! I have had 5lbs on me for the last year and just can't burn it off either!! my problem is I am great during the week and then ruin it all at the weekend!!! 5lbs is a lot as well on a small frame and my clothes are still fitting but just a wee bit tight and that makes me feel even bigger!!

I am just off the pill too so my body seems to be swollen all the time!

Am gonna give up booze for September and try and be really careful not to overdo bread, cereal and stuff like that and fingers crossed!!
