Never Give Up NEW PICS on p.311

Are you paying the price for the classic play in the snow-do my homework dilemma?

Flick at Uni.

The snow playing was carefully scheduled around my study I'll have you know!

It was the classic dilemma of boyfriend gives you gift of holiday to see friends in Glasgow, in a week where you really should have stayed home to study... :-(

Weighed in this morning, 9st 12lbs, so have lost a whopping 9lbs since Sunday! Ofcourse that was pretty much ALL water from all the junk I ate last week! Happy with that number so will stay as clean as I have been, cheat at weekend and try and stay as this...

Are you not tempted to add in a gazillion eggs a day now that medical science has decided they're not going to kill you after all?

I'm off eggs and brocolli at the moment, nowt to do with medical science, everyhting to do with I've had them everyday for breakfast for the past 550 days, bar about 20days...

Well done with the weight loss! :-)

Thanks Elsa! Am happy that I'm now sitting at a normal weight, even happier that after maoning to Chrissie, I now have 6 (slightly flat) abs staring back at me in the mirror yay!

To get towards my fitness goals, I am restructuring my workouts with the first Core workout this morning...
 
Pike jumps to warm up 10 x 2
 
Hanging leg wipers aka LK 10 x 2 (p.s. it's really hard not to swing on these once momentum starts!)
 
V-sits (straight legged)
- 10 Straddled
- 10 piked
- 6 alternate leg (failed was meant to get 10!)
 
Ball pikes 10 reps, 6 reps (failed again to get to 10!)
 
Roman chair hanging leg raises
- Straight-legged to failure
- Bent legged to failure (2 sets of both)
 
Stretching and splits practice - am about 2 inches from the floor now!!!! Still got video on phone of Liz doing whizzing splits thingy which I'm awaiting impatiently to try once I get there!
 
 

MINI EGGS!! did you say MINI EGGS! naughty naughty ;-) Elsa is showing a wee smile for the first time today. I'm not alone anymore. But ofcourse.. We will never do it again, right? Or else.....  

Only 2 inches of the floor doing a split! Well done you! You don't have far to go then 

It feels like forever to go but I'm getting down there bit by bit...

P.S Please note that I'M NOT CONTEST PREPPING - YOU ARE! :-p
Glad I made you smile though... We're all human...

P.P.S Liz can totally do the jumping over hand move malarkey now! Was fine once I saw myself doing it in front of a mirror!!

I feel partly responsible for this mini-egg debacle.
When I said;

jedi: Are you not tempted to add in a gazillion eggs...

...I did not qualify the level of permissable chocolate content (zero).

I think maybe the General Medical Council is going to have to qualify its advice about eating as many 'eggs' as you want too. Somebody didn't think that original statement through given that it is the run up to Easter.

Am surprised a canny Cadburys haven't been running an advert featuring '...as per medical advice.'

I never thought of that... Thankyou for taking the blame for my mishap Mr Jedi... ;-)

unfortunately i cant seem to eradicate cadburys creme eggs from my diet....

Liz - I totally thought of you when I was eating them and what you said about how I casually note in my diet 'oats, eggs, chicken, chocolate' lol... :-D

Liz doing whizzing splits? thats what happens after you have children, weak pelvic floor!

Will upload vid as soon as Carl retrieves his phone from the hotel from hell!

oh dear i dont know if i did my fitness model smile while i was whizzing!!!!! ;-)

I don't think you did... ;-)

Today was my first day on my YMCA gym instructor course... And small world, there was a guy on my course who did the Masters Class at the BNBF Southern also on my course! He went to London club this past weekend apparently too! :-D

cool - you going for a change of career? How's uni going?
