doing OK

8 Replies

Well although I signed up before xmas I didn't really start until new year. The first 2-3 weeks went very well , even though I was not at the gym due to an injured knee. The last week wasn't great as it was the anniversary of losing my mum and find that time very difficult. But hey ho such is life. Anyway my total loss for January is 9lb, not bad, quite pleased with that. Has given me a boost to keep going. Being organised is definitely the key for me so breakfast porridge and salad lunches all preped the night before so no excuses.

This girl can, this girl will x

Hi Suzeeb,

Congratulations on losing 9 pounds in January, that is really great. Glad it's given you the boost to keep going. Sounds like you've had a few challenges within the month, so well done for getting through them. Sorry to hear you had to face the Anniversary of losing your Mum. That is really tough.

I also enjoy having porridge for breakfast - usually with some nuts and seeds and fruit to jazz it up and add further nutrients. I really enjoy it.

I hope you have a great week ahead, and here's to another great month ahead.

Lowcal :-)

I find that porridge keeps me going longer than anything else and is an easy one to take to work as I not one for eating first thing. I try to avoid bread as much as possible and other cereals do absolutely nothing for me.

Thanks for the encouragement, hope you have a great week too.

Go Suzeeb - 9 lbs in January- that's a fantastic start to the year!

I've lost a few people dear to me in the past couple of years and I always like to remember the laws of Physics-

"Energy never dies-it simply changes from one form to another"

So i'm sure your mum is smiling down on you as accomplish your goals

Well done : )

9lbs wowee! That is fab.

I agree with others, your mum would be so proud, she is somewhere watching and waggling her pom poms in delight.

What a start to the year! Keep going! :-)

Thank you everyone for your replies - the support on here is fantastic!!
