Weigh Day

So that is food optimising 100% Monday-Friday. Am I a little disappointed? Yes! I really wanted a decent chunk of Christmas off but it is a loss regardless. My body has always been a bit slow on the uptake so I’m sure some of the rubbish I ate over Christmas was still going on this […]

Anna Barnes

I love an uplifting book and stumbled across some Anna Barnes in my local Works bookshop. I bought “How to be Mindful” and defy anyone able to flick through it and not feel a warm sensation of calm and happiness. Each page is beautifully illustrated and it helps you become more aware of mindfulness and […]

Quiet rainy Thursday

A quiet Thursday allows for some food planning and a hot cup of tea. Well that was the idea anyway, Wilf had a different vision for our shopping trip, with 10 minute power naps over his usual 2 hours and projectile vomit in the shop 🤦‍♂️. I feel like I am walking like John Wayne […]

21 days

I came across this yesterday from the healthy living Facebook page. That’s only 3 weeks. How easy does that sound? Challenge accepted, Barney style. 21 days of 100 percent on plan, 10,000 steps and as many work outs as I can manage. I also did a bit of reading about sugar. I definitely have an […]

How is it going?

So day two of January and I am feeling pumped and determined. My first PT of the year is in the morning and I literally cannot wait to get fitter and fitter this year. I think the idea of “if you change nothing, nothing changes” is my mantra for January. I’ve not got rid of […]

bonne année

bonne année How satisfying that the 1st of January is a Monday? New day, new month, new year and fresh start Monday. I can’t wait to get cracking and get this weight shifted for good. My mind is in a good place so it will happen! Come on, let’s do this 2018!

Oops

So I have rejoined for the last time. I will sit in that group as a gold member in 2018 🙋🏻‍♀️. SW we have got this. I am pleased to have done it today so I can kick January off with a big fat loss on 6th January. So I am going to approach this […]

Reflection and goals

I find this time of year truly bizarre. As the latest Nationwide advert calls it the “Chrimbo Limbo.” In some respects it is fantastic, days at home with the family as a whole, Mum off work to see her Grandchildren lots, family around who you rarely see but somehow I find myself hating it in […]

Contemplation

Well that’s another Christmas over and another year I’ve eaten to excess and made myself feel ill! 🤦‍♂️ I feel vile but I have drawn a line in the sand and I am fully ready to be back on it tomorrow. It’s really not long until the big 3-0 so I need to stop messing […]

Pumped

I really enjoyed my PT yesterday morning and took the plunge and fully joined the gym to ramp up my exercise from January. 3 pre 7am workouts per week. 🏋️‍♂️ Looking forward to it in a weird way! Why not be the best version of yourself? i can really feel it in my legs today. […]
