My fitness Pal

Created by MyFitnessPal - Free Weight Loss Tools

This is a superb free app, I am getting good results, and costing me nothing !
It is just calorie counting, but the ability to just scan items is really handy, and I need no paper or pen !

Back Again !

Sad

I made the above video Sunday afternoon, and was devastated at seeing myself in it, but the video itself is funny. So, i have started again with my fitness friend, and am trying to abstain from beer until Christmas eve, did ok yesterday, hope to do so today too !

It's been so long, since I seen you !!

Jesus it's the middle of October already, weighed myself this morning , 16.4.5 which is 2.5 lbs down from the other week, but I work a lot of lates now, so much less drinking time, which is a good thing !!
So many things have changed, our next son has just started Uni, and we have a new grand daughter on the way, we are all so excited.!!
The council tried to fine us for taking the kids on holiday, but we took them on and won, and withdrew the court case !
The weather has finally broken, after a very good summer, but we are both gutted as I have preset holiday's so we cant go abroad for the next 3 years, and by that time only our youngest daughter will be coming with us, that's down from 5 to one in ten years !!
I have just installed "Moves" on my new Sony Z1 phone, which I had to get after Sony shafted me on the repair of my Sony Z, I am very disappointed with them .
Moves tracks all your activity, so I want to see just how good it is !
Work goes on relentlessly, but for that we are grateful.

Here is our latest gift !!

Yet Another Re Start

Well, my school group ( The class of 79 ) has really took off !

We are now talking about a reunion, and I am well up for that, but not in a rush !

Talking to a good friend, he knows one person who now lives on the other side of the world, who is coming back to the UK next July, that would be a brilliant time, and gives me time to lose some weight, so here we go !

 

I am using My Fitness Pal, as it is a very handy app, and it's free !!

 

I currently weigh 16.5.5  

Done !

Well I had no bread or potatoes yesterday ! It's very difficult to find something to eat without either in Ashton on your dinner break though ! I ended up with a plated salad, but just ate the onions, a sliver of pepper and celery. If I had a ton of salt I may of eaten more of the lettuce, but instead it went in the bin !

Day two, and I am a bit better prepared, have a banana and grapes for dinner in my bag !
The weatheris still rubbish, but they say it is going to be glorious from Friday onwards, so we will see !
Got four more days in, then my long weekend, hope to get lots of walking done during it !

Jesus it's July !!

Tut tut !! Well the boss started some milk shake diet the other day, and after a quick flick through the paperwork I concluded I can try and give up bread for a bit.

This is despite me reading an article the other day. that stated that scientists have identified a gene that makes us addicted to bread and potatoes, and that sounds sense to me.

so here I am , 16 -7 , let's see if I can stick to it !!

Now The Carnival Is Over !

And we are back from Turkey with a bump! I was fading in energy come midnight, which was causing some friction with the boss, as well as really bad diarrhea and sickness for both our daughters, then the trots got me. I hardly ate anything for the last three days, and my last visit to the toilet before leaving for the airport was 80% blood, which was a tad scary, I have never done that before !
As soon as we got back home, we both weighed ourselves , and are not happy !
I am now 16.7.5 and need to do something about it. Since returning, my appetite has not returned fully,and I am taking advantage of this. I have installed my fitness pal on my phone again (9.5 lbs heavier than last time I used it ) and so am tracking every calorie I eat and drink.
When I go to work now, I am taking water instead of juice.
I am going back to basic calorie counting, it worked for me once, so can again !
I have also discovered that my gym membership that I thought had been cancelled has not been, so will be heading back there soon, as time permits .
