Well, I am afraid it has not been a very productive week work out wise. I was really busy on Monday and Tuesday and usually I’d work out at least a little bit any way, but I just felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks – despite getting caught up on [...]

Oh dear, I have lost track of when it was I last worked out now – I have been sick for almost two weeks and to top it off I have not been sleeping the last few days because of our noisy neighbours. I really don’t know when they sleep, they party until 5am and [...]

After getting passed my last migraine, I managed two days of exercise before I got another one. Oh dear. I am not the sort of person who runs to the doctor every time I sneeze but I think I may have to make an appointment about this, I am sure it’s not normal to be [...]

So, yeah. With 15 out of the 20 workouts complete and only a few days to go I got a migraine and had to miss a few days, when I finally went to play it again a few nights ago I was informed that I now did not have enough time left to complete the [...]

So with the treadmill having gone back and the weight not shifting through my usual methods at the moment — I went out and got EA Sports Active, I had heard a lot of good things about it and people were saying it was a lot better for getting a serious workout than Wii Fit, [...]

I am having a real *bangs head on desk* time at the moment, I have been working my arse off the last two weeks — really pushing myself in my workouts and doing at least two hours per day, as a result I have….gained one pound. Yeah it’s only a pound and it’ll be gone [...]

Oooh look at that, I changed my main goal in the sidebar from 10 stone…as it has been since I started this journey, to 9.13 – yes it’s only a 1lb change, but I was thinking about it the other day and realised…why stop at 10 stone? That was my initial goal because I wanted [...]

Here’s a tip I picked up several months ago that has been invaluable to me – an elliptical goes two ways, forwards and backwards. You are probably thinking ‘Duh’ at me right now, but think about it…when you go backwards instead of forwards you are working your muscles in different ways, and you are even [...]

The good news is that my migraine seems to have all but gone now, the further good news is that I didn’t put on any weight over the last week when I have done nothing but slob around in bed, hurrah. Tomorrow it’s time to get back into it, It’ll be the first time I [...]
