I think I will give up while the goings good, shouldnt post from my phone

Well I am going in the right direction again.
64.7kg (started 65.2)

24...25.....it's only a number glass

I don't care if it's March the eleventeenth, because I've lost 2lbs. Whoop! After several weeks of being stuck,my weight has finally decided to give in and start going backwards again. About bloomin time!

Good luck everyone! Don't give up!

A week after hip op, hospital food and lots of cakes and chocolates at home, I'm quite pleased I've only put on 1kg.to 65.5.Then again it could just be the weight of the new hip

Glass you are not the only one losing the plot!
I have had a funny week involving a short bout of d and v followed by a day and a half of dry toast.
I weighed yesterday and came out at exactly 160lbs. On my chart it means a loss of 0.2lb! Disappointing but better than might have been with all that bread followed by whatever I fancied as the miseries set in
Then when I recorded my weight on My Fitness pal I had recorded 161.2 last week (my chart says 160.2!) so shows a loss of 1.2lb - confused - you will be!!!
Whatever way round I am now 160 Glass (weight not age!)

Grannylin must be the wieght of the hip, I'm sure they are very heavy....

Well done the losers. I'm the same again but have just been to physio (finally, after 3 months!) and been told I should try to get moving again.

Out to lunch today and will really try to be good but no promises!

Didn't manage to do much walking last week due to the weather but did eat quite healthily and avoided bread most days [bought some soda bread as we were planning to go to Kelso for the racing on Saturday, but it was cancelled]. 63kg [which I think is what I was before I went away] which is disappointing but, as I spent most of the week curled up on the sofa reading a book isn't surprising. Are you feeling a lot better Moved?

Hi everyone, I will go through all the weights later as my head is all over today I blame the pirates on Saturday top much Ahoying I cant come back down to earth.

grannylin I hope you are recovering well after your op
sba
move you will be glad to become a little morw mobile.
tegan have you been up in the North East this last week? I wish I had realised as we could have have tried to meet up.

Whoooo notso its moving

jane well done.
notso we knew it would start to move
grannylin I think it probably your new hip so I am not counting it.
sba if thats what it shows its got yo be right
tegan you were on holiday so to stay the same it great.


This week 4.2lb
Challenge total 3stone 11lb 7oz

Do you think we can make it 4stone for our Easter challenge?

Very pleased as have stayed same weight this week again
Really no intention of losing any more , though would quite like to " firm up" some of the areas which look slim but a bit saggy ! Need to investigate the exercise situation - Pilates once a week is set in stone, but until I can rely on doing some weekly gardening ( certainly not in this weather ! ) there's not much else happening in terms of physical activity ...... Hmmmmm. Food for thought .

How about swimming grannyk that seems to do an all over tone up.

Hi my first weigh in! I managed to lose 1 1/2 lbs.. not fantastic for a first week but better than nothing but I am spurred on to better this week!! have a couple of family 'get togethers' over Easter so need to 'plan' for those!

I must also set up some regular exercise as like others gardening not much of an option at the moment!

nanaej thats a great start I think when we know that we have things in the pipeline we can plan ahead, its when things get throw in at the last minute that its more difficult.

This week 5.9lb
Challenge total 3stone 13lb

Oh its looking promising for the 4 stone

13 11 3/4
Can't diet this weather. It's to cold and I'm bored.

galen its hard to think about being good when the weather is crap, and eating as your bored is the only thing to occupy us sometime. This weather has got to get better soon

This week 5lb 5.5oz
Challenge total 3stone 13lb

This week 5.9lb
Challenge total 3stone 9.5lbs

Sorry and I thought I was having a better day today, obviously not.

This week 5lb 5.5oz

Challenge total 3stone 9.5lbs

Thanks for the interest Tegan. I'm a bit more mobile but still can't be upright for long before I'm in pain. Physio seemed surprised at how fit I am apart from this bit and seemed to think I should wear an orthotic in my shoe to even up me leg lengths. Am reluctant to do this as I had polio 60 years ago which caused it but if I start messing with it now it could make things worse! Bought some knee pads today so I can do the kneeling type gardening when the thaw starts. Think I might rejoin the gym and see what I can do without standing for long. Bike? Rowing?

Oh dear; slow progress Moved . I found that having a hot water bottle on my knees last week made them [and me] feel a lot better. Might be worth trying the orthotics? I find wearing totally flat shoes make my knees hurt. glass; it was too cold to move far last week; spent a lot of time on the sofa and [this is so sad] we tended to make a flask of tea in the afternoon and go and sit in the car watching the waves at various places[Craster was quite dramatic one afternoon]. It's soo what old people do . Hope they sort the boat out that's ran aground on the Farnes; will be a disaster for the local birds if it breaks up. We're up again at the end of August so a meet up then would be lovely [might have stopped snowing by then!].

moved is this post polio syndrome?
