As the post scroll like the sands in an hour glass, these are posts of the arena. Wow I feel old. That sentence is a variant of an old intro to a USA soap opera called days of our lives. Good luck with all. It sounds exciting
Ponyfan - hoping the soreness goes away soon! nessa16 - gaining 8lb since June - that's 2 lb per month - not too bad, I am sure it can quickly come off again - after my wedding I just ate, ate, ate and gained a whole lot more then fell pregnant and got even heavier - a few months after giving birth I manged to shed the massive 50lb via Weight Watchers (but no exercise), getting down to my wedding weight again.When my WW leader left and the local classes closed, I lost my mojo and some weight crept back on. I joined Slimming World (as it was the only local class) and had a little bit of success but plateaued very quickly so gave up. I was frustrated with the SW method as I was following it closely but not getting the results I had with WW. I have to say I am a huge fan now of My Fitness Pal because it is free, it makes me log exactly what I have eaten (keeping scales in my kitchen to weigh things to check) and gives me a daily calorie budget to work to. I eat what I like, so long as I stay within my calories. A revelation for me has been exercise and using weights - classic cardio (exercise that makes you raise your heartbeat and huff and puff e.g. running, burpees, jumping jacks, skipping) is good for calorie loss but weights have another role - toning you up and shrinking your body shape down! With only 8lb to lose, I am sure that you can nip this in the bud and get a great result by say, Christmas!
Only thing is, is even at my wedding weight, I still wanted to lose 10 pounds so now it's 18 lbs ☹️...
