Didn't Pooka do that with great success? Flint? Look .....a real "summons" ;)

(what's the betting he ignores this one because I am the monster who cried "Flint!" ?) :lol:

I don't know, but he's not likely to say anything worth hearing anyway. Not to me anyway.

Lost track of my days so I just pick up from day 6. Yes, I am cheating. :-P

LJ: no, sex doesn't count. Gotta do your planks the right way. :-)

Ali: yes, start again. :-)

Day 12 also didn't happen (well I spent 4 hours in the lotus-ish position in a cold garage, but i'm guessing that doesn't count) I tried in bed last night but gave up at 20s --and was asleep 3s later .....so I went back to day 10 (1 minute) It was easier than I anticipated. :D

Here you go:

The HCG Diet

Cool. Just read the thread. Thanks monster. I am aiming to lose a little over 2kg per week so about 6lb. So far I'm on track. I set myself a goal of 20kg by xmas. I think that might have been a little unrealistic, mostly because during both weeks so far I've been out drinking and dining one night. Still, I've lost 2kg both weeks so far, so not too bad. I'm not having too much of an issue with hunger either. I use myfitnesspal to keep track of my calories, so if I can fit in a light snack, I do.

I am not being as strict as Pooka was, but still getting results. My clothes are already starting to fit better. soon I hope to be getting back into stuff that really doesn't fit now.

If you can come close to 2kg a week for an extended period (without murdering someone), that's fantastic. Remember the first week you don't make your goal, don't give up. There will be frustrating plateaus, but keep going.

Anyone keeping up with your planking? I've been forgetting. :-/ okay, start again tomorrow. I just ate dinner a short while ago so not gonna do it now.

I'm keeping up. One minute this morning.

I restarted at 20 sec. Tomorrow and Sunday I'll work it in. I've started some core work and beginner's yoga as well.

oops

Just did a minute. It feels like a long time and like I need to read or something during it. Staring at the same spot of dirty floor for a full minute is tedious on top of the exercise. I am not looking forward to multiple minutes of it.

Oh, and my core feels sore.

Plankwhatnow? Apparently, I'm so busy, I don't have thirty-forty seconds to spare...

I'll be starting over. Maybe. Prolly. Maybe.
