New addition

Hi, want to go for a quick run this morning but not sure if I can be bothered yet. I don’t know about anyone else but when it’s Saturday and you’ve got nothing to look forward to ( like going out ) what is the actual point?! Hope this site is gonna be helpful- and fun......🤨

Hi and welcome, Lisbo

Isn't going for a run 'going out'? There's always a point to taking care of your health and well-being.

All of the information you need about the forum can be found in Pinned Posts healthunlocked.com/nhsweigh... and I hope you'll be joining all the Events, Challenges and Clubs that we run, especially a weigh-in and the daily diary.

We've found active participation to be key to successful weight loss and, of course, it's a good way to get to know people, find inspiration and share support and encouragement.

Wishing you all the best

Do a virtual Park Run! 9am on a Saturday.

I would join you, but I'm breaking my fast then 😋

Yeah I’m still teaing my drink and procrastinating on chat sites 😂

I will go as my playlist is so banging tbh- but I will Thankyou when I get back 👏🏼👍

[Hidden]

I’m with you on this but need to get the gin out of my pores somehow 😬🤣

I’ m a great believer in doing exercise we like. I don’t like running, but I do a lot of rebounding, cycling & hill walking as I like doing those things. I also sometimes feel like staying in bed a lot, but am glad I’ve got out after the first few minutes.

Yup me too- prefer the gym but that ain’t happening...... back at work next week so will be getting Ma bike out for 9 miles each way ( weather dependant) but I HATE online exercise nonsense- feel like a right tit bashing legs on coffee table etc so running it is. Ugh.

Haha .. you sound just like me .. I love the gym and the classes.. but I feel daft prancing around in living room .. I tend to exercise when hubby at work cos I’m on furlough .. and it’s surprising what you can get done and how many calories you can burn .. I even put exercise bike in living room whilst watching tv .. I hate the bike .. but you pedal and watch tv and time fly’s by .. 😁

You should go on webcam fizz- you’d earn £££ at the same time!!!!

This may be cheeky but I've used this thread as motivation to do a 30 minute run (just back). It's all about choice, isn't it. The fresh air awaits. 😊

[Hidden in reply to SofaJockey]

and you GOT OFF THA SOFA! Anytime you want motivational msgs- I’m full of the opposite!

[SofaJockey in reply to Hidden]

*Boom*Boom* !! (didn't see that one coming) 😜

Did you go on your run? x

[Hidden in reply to Lytham]

I did! Took me 2 hours to squeeze into Lycra and actually get out the door- managed to do week 3 couch to 5k ( bit messed up as forgot to put on data roaming and Spotify gave up half way) but yeah. Got a very large pink gin fizz on the go as I can barely walk and found muscles in my backside tonight I never thought I had.i like this app..... 🥰
