    My 6am session didn't happen this morning (don't hate me!) I was out last night at friends and didn't get home until gone 1am so getting up at 5.30am was not going to happen!! Going to kettlercise tonight so that will make up for it and may do a quick gym session beforehand. No 6am's until next Wednesday either...having an extended easter weekend so my 6am sessions will probably be more like 11am sessions!

    Day off from the gym today and took his nibs for a walk instead. He had his yearly vet check last night and has lost a kilo since last year - he's doing better than me lol!!!

    Holiday time - Doing nothing for 5 days, maybe a chillout swim session but nothing more :) then another 2 month push of doing things correctly.

    Good to see I'm not the only one who wakes up early lol....

    I usually get up at 5 so I have time to digest my breakfast before I hit the gym at 6.30

    Add me if you like

    Just back from weekend city break, knackered my knee with too much walking.
    No chance of doing anything tomorrow. Resting up.

    Morning all,

    Back in the pool this morning, felt lovely and it was quiet :)

    I can foresee a couple of KG added after this break never even managed to get out on the pushbike but did hit the motorbike hard :D

    Had one of those cr@p nights when I didn't get to sleep until it was time to get up :yawn: :yawn: I've also put 2lbs on since Thursday (was expecting worse tbh!) Very tempted to crawl under my desk and have a kip!!!

    Crap early morning, fell of my push bike, luckily no one around to see. I now have a graze on my elbow a 8 year old would be very proud of.

    hi there! I'm new to this thread and have started going to my gym very early in a morning, as in getting up at 5am...doing my workout...coming home to get ready for work! I've done this before but never stuck to it but after losing 16lb after xmas on Atkins then binging for the last month and putting on 14lb (OMG) I have to do something different and stick to it this time. I much prefer going to the gym early as I have to be up for work so might as well do something worthwhile....of course that means that I can come home from work and chill out for the evening, watching tv in my pjs (my favorite activity!)

    today was a success, even though I have a bad knee at the moment, I still went and did some activity. my partner is also joining me as we both work at the same place so we have to keep each other strong :)

    I'm inspired by your commitment on here so will post with my updates :flowerforyou:

    Really sore and stiff this morning so stayed in bed, might try a small swim in the morning and extra sauna time. Typical felt really strong and ready for another good 3 months on the case of it all.

    Well hello there!

    Great to have found this thread today as I am resolved to get up earlier to fit in some exercise and me time before the little darling wakes up. I did it when she was a baby and waking at 5 for a feed but then going back to sleep until 8am and I felt I got into a really natural routine and had some time to myself.

    My problem is that she is a really light sleeper and can wake anytime between 5.45 and 7.30 so I need to get up about 5 in case she's on an early one. I hate having to abandon my workout once I've got going. I need to be bloody quiet too or I risk waking her earlier too as we live in a flat. That would suck!

    My problem is getting to bed in time to not feel knackerd. I'm going to give it a go anyway.

    Is everyone still on track?

    I'm ashamed to say that I've not made it to the gym since my last post :( the knee has slowly got better but I keep setting my alarm then going back to sleep!

    I am determined to get there over the bank holiday weekend so will update on my attempts..."slinks away in shame" :yawn:
