Simple.

You're building muscles, dear.

I planned on going out to the gym today but just one look outside at the weather, and I changed my mind jare. It's still raining sef. And it'll rain tomorrow morning too. Imagine having a cold, grey, wet, miserable Monday morning...

Ah, tell me about this weather today. I dont like rainy days.

I also cancelled my gym plan because of the weather. Will go in the morning hopefully.

I actually plan to be doing 30-40mins run plus level 1 and 2 JM 30days shred say 5days a week. I wish i can really keep to it. The spirit is indeed willing but the flesh eh...God help us

Wetin the flesh do you na?

Try not to run for too long. You'll damage your knees. I've drastically cut down from doing the 2hr run to just 30mins, and even then, I hope I'm not doing too much by running 5 days a week. It's good to keep fit and healthy but make we do am with sense oh!

Hi... have you tried sprinting, say for just 100meters?
I find it more effective than just running (jogging) for a long period of time.
The body tend to use up more energy and burn more calories when there's a sudden burst of speed (as in sprinting) than it does when one runs at a steady pace for a long period of time (as in jogging).
Maybe you could give it a trial, challenge someone to a race, try to out-compete that person on the track, reaching the 100meter mark first, repeat the race one or two more times. The aftereffect is usually incredible!

Yep, I do it all the time while jogging.

Usually after I've been going for 15-20 mins, then I do a burst of sprinting for say 3-4 minutes. Sometimes just before crossing at the traffic lights, or whilst climbing up the hill at the park...or, if someone dodgy's too close behind me for comfort.

So yes, mixing it with short bursts of sprinting is exhilarating.

Day 17 done...after a 4 day break

My new weight today....I finally hit my 65kg target weight. Not dropped this low in the past 10 years...

Chillis, Damiso - it's like this shiken and chips is even making me loose weight oo cuz I've attended two bbq get-together in the past 5 days and did JM just today

Day 11 done. Did level 1 & 2 with efemenaxy's lower abs work out. Feeling good

Wow!!! Congratulations @Kimoni.
Now, you've gotta give your all to maintain this weight.
BTW: That's what have weighed for the past couple of months. Last Saturday, twas 65.5kg.

Seems you're a pro in track and field events.
Maybe someday, I'll challenge you to a contest and see how I'll fare behind you!!!

**grinning childishly***

Thanks James. I think I will try and lose a bit more to give myself a margin of safety. Then maintaining it won't put me under undue pressure.

But I am really glad I didn't have to do anything extreme to drop the excess weight, I hate to lose weight via unsustainable means. Hopefully, by eating, exercising and living "normally", I can maintain the weight. I'll hate to do otherwise.

Upiantu!

Sweetie,go and check baby picture at d lingerie thread.

So am not the only one with lethargy setting in ..

Still on day 17 and not returned to JM since Friday ..
Been running and jogging though and was able to clock about 50 km last week( I think it's about 35 km actually don't trust those apps)

Will move to level 2 this evening .. Woke up mega late this morning

Naija parties ehn and healthy eating are like poles apart. Let me report myself small sha Now I know God is delivering me small small I was quite busy with the children and eventually sat down to eat like 5pm my friend got me rice and ayamase and I told her Lai Lai can't eat all that she said I will eat with you . The oil was just making my tummy queasy I gave up after a couple of spoons I had puff puff sha managed it with water through out .you know puff puff is do filling but gosh I felt guilty through out.

I need to return to JM sharply I can feel the 5/6 puff puff(yes that many ) in my hips

Efemenaxy how do you deal with those annoying people walking dogs during your runs?

I think am going to avoid parks from now on cos I almost ran into humongous terrifying looking dogs not on leashes Twice last week.

My husband says am a scaredy cat but me and dogs I don't know are not friends

Ah, i've lost count ooo
Today is either my 6th or 7th day
But, it is my 3rd day of doing level 1 and 2 together.

I shall keep this ministry going till the end....Amen

I want to eat that.
Whatever that is. How does it taste? Like stew?

Na you biko...............I went parrying on Friday, woke super late on Saturday. Took Sunday off par usual and woke late today too and I can't bring myself to exercise in the evening

My spirit cannot give up now o, Damiso, my mouth is watering. I don't really feel guilty about the odd infraction.....my stomach seems to have shrunk and I probably would not finish the portion in your pic.

Hahaha....weekends are usually really challenging to this race especially with all these owambe here and there. So, you are forgiven for giving yourself a weekend off. Now, get back to work, this ministry must move to permanent site.


Shh....dont tell anyone, i have lost an inch around my waist line. So, my calculation is i may be loosing 1inch per week around my waist line, in fact, half inch per week is even okay for me. Cheeii, i can imagine my ukwu nwanyi owerri by the time i am 4-5inches down my waist line.

I refuse to see the ayamase. I cannot fall for it.....hahahaha.

I never knew this delicacy untill a Ghanian friend mentioned it as the only Nigerian meal he eats. I actually told him that there is no such Nigerian food till he took me to an African restuarant where i ate it. Na so i fall in love with the thing. I was practically craving for it every day. I had to advise myself biko.

Nice one dear
you are doing great. But remember it's not all about weight but how you feel inside.

For me too much oil fat gives me phlegm in the morning.
You can also use lime, ginger and warm water for cleansing immediately after eating your shiken and chips

Lol!

I'm always on the lookout. That's one reason why I'll never go out running / jogging with ear plugs on, listening to music. I need my wits about me. Most times when I sight those huge German Shepards / Alsatians from a distance, I jejely cross over to the other side of the road oh. Never been bitten by one and I don't intend to get bitten either. Come to think of it, there is an absolute nutter with not one or two, but three Great Danes! The first time I saw him and his dogs (without a leash) see as my heart cut. Na so your sister quickly cross to the other side o, before I become a victim of stories that touch.

But funny as it sounds, dogs in general don't worry me, as long as there's a healthy distance between us. My real pet peeves are finding dog shyte littering the pavement. Urgh!!. Cyclists whizzing past at high speed are another wahala. Almost as though they just wanna either ram straight into you, or brush you off onto the side path. Must be the transferred aggression they get from motorists sef.

Anyway, we're all trying to keep fit jor. The park belongs to everyone. Man, dog, cyclists, et al...

I'm sure you didn't have Great Danes, Smartmom. When you see a dog like the one in Picture 1 suddenly stand at attention with it's ears on end, you nor go fear?
