Sure will and I will weigh myself in six months and let you all know if I have lost any weight. I was told I had to lose a stone

Edit: Free pack for walking including a pedometer here though it seems to be restricted to certain areas at the moment

You beat me to it

And I agree about the temperature. Warmer water is a good idea if you're not just trying to beat your last times.

I`ve heard that getting in a few lengths is supposed to be good for you. !

Sasha222 · 27-01-2011, 21:03

Well come Monday I will be be going to the pool and doing exercises even if Its only walking in the water. I'm hoping that it will sort out my back

You go Deffy and let us know how you get on

I hate the calorie counting. Any easy way of doing it?

Sasha222 · 28-01-2011, 00:36

If I cut out anymore I may as well lie down and die

No!!!
Do some fun exercise and - just do stuff really - I lost 3 stone lately by stress (not good) and just eating sensibly (you get used to it) do it with me and have a cream cake afterwards

Step by step Lass - it doesn't have to happen in one day

Sasha222 · 28-01-2011, 00:52

Thats the one good thing I hate cake

I'm giggling me socks off. I don't have a sweet tooth either.

OK - me/you pool and then zumba? Or a pillow fight on the drive?

Today's been a bit of a failure.................checking pedometer..........only 3560 steps taken today. Tried to go for another walk but my hip bones hurt so much, must have overdone it these past few days. No time to give up, must stay positive.

Sasha222 · 28-01-2011, 18:37

Oh sorry to hear that Tinkey. I had to have a day of as well and not do anything as I had a bit of swelling in my back but due to rest and pain killers the swelling is going down. Your doing fantastic Tinkey and well done

Hey Tinky, don't think that way! you've done what you could, and overdoing things is no good for anyone. Any movement or moderate exercise is beneficial so don't go writing today off! Hope the joints ease off

Sorry about your back Deffy, maybe we are too keen and expect too much too soon, and we need to slow down on our efforts, like Caff says one small step at a time.

Thanks so much Ravenheart, maybe I expect too much from my megre efforts. If I am to carry on I will have to accept that I will have good days and bad. The crunch may come if I step on the scales and find I have put on weight. But let's not go there.

Tomorrow is another day. I think if we can keep encouraging each other in times of weakness, maybe, just maybe, with a shed load of luck we will manage to achieve our goals.

Thanks for the support peeps!

I have learned my lesson and I'm going to take it in small steps. There is great support on here so thats all we need. The best time to weigh yourself Tinkey is in the moring before you have anything to eat
