Sitty-Downy

In the words of my three year old, I’ve had a very sitty-downy kind of day! Lots of coffee and lunch out so not much pacing! It would have been so easy to continue this theme and collapse on the sofa watching paw patrol before bedtime. (Bedtime for  my children, not me, I hate it […]

Smashing goals

So I have been lazy with my step goal and lazy with my water intake. Fresh start Monday means it was time to ramp it up so I set myself mini goals. I wanted to get 10,000 steps before 4pm and drink 2 litres of water in that time too. It really worked well as […]

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 […]
