    morning everyone, just tried to do some of todays squats whilst at work to get them out of a way and we almost had a casualty! my work trousers! they are a bit on the snug side (one of my motivators for losing weight are these trousers as we struggle to get replacement uniform) and almost split straight up the middle so my tally today sofar is half a squat, guess i'll just do them all later on

    Well I was gonna post Saturday but got too lazy. I was unable to do the 3 mile walk/run friday so I made up for it on Saturday and did a 5 mile run, then went and did some swimming. It was really a great work out cause the pool had a climbing wall in it too. Excellent work out!!

    I will post later today when todays challenges are done :)

    i failed yesterday. my other halfs man flu has mutated into something girlies can catch, so despite me being up for it in the morning whilst i was at work by the time i got home in the afternoon all i wanted to do was curl under a duvet and sleep, it was a miricle i actually cooked yesterday the fish and chip shop was sounding so tempting, after dinner we curled up with our tissues and watched a film by which time i had totally forgotten about the challenge.

    on the plus side i did lose 0.8lb this week

    i had a nice walk round my local garden centre and its show gardens which according to my pedometer and my maths was just under 2 miles i then walked to the shops and back later which is roughly half a mile, i've not logged it as i'm full of cold so it was more of an amble than exercise. on the plus side i feel much better this morning so todays task should be doable

    well wednesday was a bit of a bust cos i forgot to take my hrm to the gym, but in the hour i'm there i normally burn 600 cals and i did and extra 15 mins of cardio so i think i was about there for that one.

    i also did my crunches last night. am currently hoping the weather holds off for my walk later as its been horrid here the past couple of days
