Irnbru - I wish I had your willpower when it comes to exercise!!

4angels - go get em!!!

(feel like a snooze myself)

Hi all,
I've come to gatecrash your chit chat while I'm on summer hols! I've just done 80mins of Davina This afternoon holds the overwhelming excitement of catching up on all the paperwork i've neglected in the end of term push. Rock n roll.

What is everyone else up to?

You are not gatecrashing Wonderwoman you have an invite and are welcome anytime hun as is everyone else on here!!

80mins of Davina...you must feel really pleased now you've done that. I can't even motivate myself to dust the treadmill and get into my exercise clothes!! Hopeless at the moment!!

I suppose if you get your paperwork done asap Wonderwoman you can relax and enjoy yourself for a few weeks yes/no?

I've been trying to decide what to do all morning....but keep gravitating back to this forum!!!! Weather is not really great for doing much outside but I think we will all go crazy if we stay in all day!!

Oh well I'll go and try and find something to do....catch up with you later guys xxxxx

I'm going to try and relax as much as possible 4angels, but lots to do! I'm trying to have exercise mornings and either a productive or relaxing afternoons - today will hopefully be productive!

Are the rest of you at work?

No I am still here lol - supposed to move ages ago but like 4angels keep drifting back lol - i am all excited as i got my welcome pack from the uni so have been planning bus routes n timetables n onhly half packed my gym bag yet lol - must...drag...myself... away... lol

Im at work working hard as you can see

how exciting irn bru - what will you be studying?

I've finally trawled through the paperwork - I can see the surfaces in my flat again!

Hey gals, hows everyone getting on? xx

Hey Flax! How are you? Have you been busy working hun? Hope all is going well with you!!!

xxxxx

im fine thanks love, how are you?

I'm having a bad day feeling proper fugly.

But good thing is, been too upset to eat so hopefully i will have lost a lb for my trouble! xx

its great to see you posting again but crap that you are feeling bad about yourself, hope things have gotten better for you as the day has gone on or that you are managing to avoid comfort eating (and even if you are then hope you don't feel too guilty about it) some days some days you are the racket and some days you are the shuttlecock.

WW I am doing the degree in psychology - i can't wait and all the things coming through the post are making it a bit more real and i am not as worried about being the right size when i start either, no point worrying about it as its gonna be another two years before i am getting to my target weight so *shrugs shoulders* why worry?

Oh Flax!!! We all get bad days hun when we feel rubbish about ourselves!!! Hope you feel a bit more positive soon.

xxxxx

Hi Flax - good to "see you" again!!

Sorry you're feeling a bit crap at the minute - hope you feel better soon xxxxx

Ooh, IrnBru I did my degree in Psychology, let me know if theres anything I can do to help! I really loved it, I'm sure you will too.

oh now that's very handy to know - I may well take you up on that offer. Its the HND in social science that I have just finished so did some psych modules but it is going to be fab to be immersed in it. It gets me into the 2nd year so 3 years to get the honours then 3 years postgrad - then will see how smart I am if I can go for the Phd (and if we are not fed up of me being a skint student)- it's about a 10 year plan lol

Wow Irnbru - thats some plan!! My ex lodger is a psychology lecturer and she loves it !

i love to have a plan

well last night with my mates visiting was great they had brought their youngest daughter down and then two of thier lads came down later too and all three of my lads emerged from their rooms too (my mates daughter asked them to come downstairsand they didn't want to refuse lol) so it was really nice having them all together - playing guitar hero and having a really bad karaoke session along the way - much alcohol was consumed lol and much snacky nibbling too - so sitting here now shattered and thinking that I have to leave in less than two hours for my pub lunch so not going to have time for the gym - n can't muster up the enthusiasm to be too broken hearted about that lol.

eek it's 4 weeks today until I start Uni - excited and panicking in equal measures lol. i know that i will have to up my game a bit to fit in assessments/study/running the house and getting up earlier/getting to the gym later, am worried about fitting it all in after having the luxury of free time and no ramped up extreme timetable - its going to be a challenge to get all the balls juggling again, but at the same time i am getting a bit bored so will welcome the challenge a bit too.

You'll be fine Irnbru!! I'm positive that u must be an excellent multi-tasker already!!!

Will you be in 5 days a week or do you not know until you get a timetable?
I was fulltime but only in 3 days in first year, 2 days in second and 2 half days in 3rd year. At the time I worked 30hours as well...don't know how I did it now!!!
Hubby was in 3 days first & second years and will be in 2 days in his 3rd year. I suppose all Uni's and courses are completely different in timetabling commitments though.

I'm sure it will be fine though and you'll enjoy it once you know what you are doing and when, as you'll then be able to sort a new routine out.

On a different note...why the hell have I put 2 lbs on this morning? Soooo unfair!!!! Not been a bad girl & not due on - so I'm really annoyed!!!

Thanks 4angels - you are spot on - i will feel happier when i know how many days a week i will need to travel in and how much time i get for self directed study and then i can get a schedule worked out.

your 2lbs - did you go on the scales this morning ? - are you maybe just checking too often? remember weight fluctuates up/down about 2lbs a day - lol i am awful at this myself so know the temptation all too well hehehe try to just ignore the scales for a few days - I try to limit myself to once a week but can't help popping on the gym scales from time to time too.

Yes went on the scales this morning!! I know I shouldn't do but I weigh myself nearly every morning and if I've lost or stayed the same I have a good day foodwise and if I've put weight on it can sometimes lead me to a downfall in will power that day. I guess it could be fluid but it is so damn annoying!! I'm my own worst enemy!!
