Hurrah, I emailed the manufactures of my HRM direct and they are going to replace it for me and I did manage to update my WP version without a hitch this time. Now I just need to fine or create a pretty theme for it

I finally decided to bite the bullet and email the place I bought my Heart Rate Monitor, even though I can’t really explain what’s wrong with it — they got back to me and said that they would refund but could not replace because they no longer have then in stock. That’s not what I [...]

Here’s what I realised yesterday, while I was wearing the size 14 pants I’d not been able to get into last month and slipping on the size 14 coat I haven’t worn in many years – who cares if I am not losing pounds at the moment, I am clearly losing inches. I need to [...]

Great news, The Biggest Loser UK is coming back! As you know, I am such a big fan of the show I watched the UK version before it was axed, I watch the USA version and I watch the mighty Australian one! The new UK one will follow the Australian style of being on nightly, [...]

Shrove Tuesday and I didn’t eat a single pancake, go me. Well except not, I am cheating and trying to get praise where I don’t deserve any. I didn’t eat any pancakes, but that’s because I don’t really like them. They are far too sickly for me, though I don’t hate them and in the [...]

I have been working really hard on my elliptical the last few weeks, I have been doing a minimum of 1 hour per day and really pushing myself to make sure I am burning the most calories I can. My Heart Rate Monitor is still broken though, I don’t know what I am going to [...]
