What a month this has been .. great start to the month with me managing to drop 2 trousers sizes since i started this journey in june ish .. down to a size 30 from a 34 .. also can now wear a small tshirt too ..so the hard work has been paying off.. then an inner ear infection struck me down and ive done no workouts for around 3 weeks now.. until tonight .. the ear infection is going away slowly and im regaining hearing again in my ear ..luckily i had no issues with balance as such, just the nagging ear pain and deafness in the one ear. So tonight after the obligatory xmas excesses of drink and chocolates i weighed in and surprise surprise i hadnt put any on or lost any, so i guess the time off hasnt harmed me too much except for the exercise.
I guess my body was ready for it and i managed a great 1.5 hrs of jogging/walking and even managed to fit some sprints in as well.. total distance was around 8miles ..
Santa claus brought me some new running shoes .. sketchers memory foam .. must say thet are as comfy as the nike airmax i had to send back as after 2months they were falling apart.. they feel great for walking/jogging in.. would recommend to anyone as they werent that expensive either.
Will try out the new dumbell/barbell set from santa tomorrow now i feel fit enough to start up again.. Roll on 2015 and my next trip to New York in 7weeks time

Hope everyones had a great xmas as ive not been around much due to the illness and feeling crap.
