I feel good! But hate lunges

Tried skipping in the garage but it was the most excruciating 100 jumps that I have ever done. Got fed up and went up and down the road outside our house. Still find moving forward whilst I skip much easier. Up the road 100 skips, then back 100. My neighbour was a bit surprised to see me.

Food going really well. Have been steaming up a storm and have plenty of choice each meal.

Only problem I have had the past couple of days is not enough time in the day to eat all 3 snacks, so have only been able to manage two out of three.

Feeling good and looking a lot better, or at least so people around me are telling me. No cravings for alcohol at all. Did have a pang of regret last Friday when I bought naan bread for the kids on the way home and they were eating it in the car.... oh my that smelt yummy. No gluten sucks.

Other than that all OK! Apart from the fact that I loathe lunges and they make my knees hurt.

Getting ready to have some fruit and then an early night.

  1. Conny, for the lunges make sure your knee does not surpass your toe. If you're knee is going past your toe that may be the cause of the pain?
    It takes a conscious effort to go down into the lunge, rather than forward.

  2. I hate lunges too. Probably as I have lots of myself to move up and down. ;-)

    Plus I am getting old and my knees are a bit stiff.

    But I do them and try my best at them like you are doing too.

    I wish I could see you skipping up the street. You must be the talk of the neighbourhood but then most foreigners are just by being foreign.

    I am a stationary two footed skipper.

  3. I am trying really hard to look at my knees when I do the lunge but maybe that means that I am leaning forward too much. Will change location of where I do lunges to the bedroom where we have a full length mirror and try to correct form that way.
