2 minutes of cardio is not going to make much of a difference I'm afraid

I would smash 2 grab bags of walkers crisps and 3 chocolate bars most days at work. Bags of harribo and jellys plus Mc D's etc thats all after having a massive unhealty dinner.

Ive gone cold turkey on the Crisps, Choc and Sweets and dont miss them tbh.

Now my treats are occasional Strawberry Trifle.

Today i had a Burger Chips and Onion Rings at the Pub. I usually have a Jacket Spud with beans cheese and a side salad but i fancied a treat.

Just had a bowl of special k so with the exercise ive done today that should maintain my weight.

So far ive lost 20lbs and have done it thru plenty of exercise cutting out the crap and odd occasional treat.

4lb to target loss so hopefully have that off in the next 2 weeks.

Just been catching up with this thread, this is GREAT stuff Girgy, more importantly don't fall into the trap of returning to your 'old ways'

after all the talk of subway's on here I had to get one today.

went for one of there low fat subs, think it was 650-700 cals for a footlong so not the end of the world.  was very nice.  Chicken tikka!

I'm going on a big night out tomorrow, prob just going to drink what i want and forget about it, last week i tried to stick to rum and diet coke but doubt its that much better, i just ended up drinking twice as much!

Slight improvement for me this week.

I've been eating much better and also training really well.

Just had a weigh in which was 16st so half way to target weight. Also the waist measurement has dropped back to 37" so I'm reasonably pleased.

Today's food has been:

4 weetabix
Whey protein shake
2 chicken burgers
Flapjack
Pro MR shake
220g chicken + 150g + Kung Po sauce
4 eggs on toast for supper later.

Total 3320 calories, 260g protein, 440g carbs, 50g fat.

I was amazed at the calories in the Kung Po sauce. It was low fat at 3.2g for the 400g jar but 732 calories!! Carbs were very high as well at 173.

Might have to rethink that one but it was lovely so maybe I'll let it stay.

Still room for improvement but overall I'd say I'm pretty happy to be where I am considering how low I felt with everything last week.

Obviously helps to be fully fit again having shifted a 3 week long cold!!

The main thing for me is to back in full training which will make a huge difference to the weight I'm gaining. Obviously need it to be muscle, not fat so it's vital to be training hard.

I've also upped my walks with Ronnie to 5 miles which will help me to stay trim. The last thing I want is to have a battle towards the end of this trying to lose an inch or two off my waist whilst somehow maintaining my weight.

What sort of rice do you use? I get 200g of rice + 600g of chicken as 1350 calories & 155g carbs. This is with white basmati.

Perhaps we're using different figures or maybe it's just different products.

Just had a thought. Is yours dry weight or cooked? Mine's dry.

[byronkincaid]

filled up the car with petrol, went in, put my card in the reader thing and mind went completely blank could not remember my PIN number which I have had for over 20 years now. hope i haven't got mad cow disease. anyway most certainly have got a cold, must have lost a few lbs in snot already!

@Matt. Practice without the rope? do you mean get the timing of the jump down then add in the rope?

if you're hitting your shins then no matter how good your timing you're never going to be able to jump the rope, it's far too high. need to work on getting the rope to swing through at ground level first surely?

I have been watching vids and reading and I am starting to think I need a longer rope tbh, I can get a longer one and wrap it round my hands, my one know I have to hold the very bottom of the handles and jump far too high to do it. When I watch vids they keep their wrists at the same level but I find myself moving my hands up and down to get it over and under. Only a few quid online so might try a couple. Think it will be the nuts to be able to do well. For the fatties I would highly rexommend it. Get a decent mat to lower the impact. It's fun and gets the heart rate up.

forgot to answer this before. no need to wrap round your hands if it's too long, tie knots near the handles to adjust and you'll get it to the right length and be able to use the handles properly
