I sent it back because York Fitness said they would replace it, waited over a week and it came back to me — with the batteries changed — what? Is that replacing it York Fitness? I had already had the batteries changed and it made no difference.

They said I didn’t include a proof of purchase, but I certainly did — I included my original Amazon receipt — which is retrospect was dumb of me because now I don’t have that, I should have sent a copy.

When I complained with a long email, their response was ‘Did the new batteries fix the problem?’.

F******

I don’t know what my next move is, but I will not be spending any more money on postage and the like, that’s for sure — I am £10 down already!

I don’t know what happened, I just ran out of time and although I did try a lot of pants on, none fit ‘nicely’ – here’s what the shopping trip taught me…I need to change up my exercise routine and get some weight off my belly, because the elliptical has obviously done wonders for my bottom and thighs as every thing was hanging off me at the back! I know I should be happy about this, and I am I guess…but it’s new to me, although I have always been overweight I have always been in proportion before, so this is new to me, I have no idea how to deal with it and dressing right for my new shape.

I need to switch things up any way, because I weighed in last night…no loss at all for the 4th week in a row, bah. I have been really trying as well because I am going on holiday for 2 weeks next week and you just know I am gonna put on a few pounds then.

I am going to see how things go while I am away then formulate a new plan, I might increase my calories by 200 a day and start doing aerobics 3 nights a week instead of just always elliptical.
