    Happy Tuesday everyone!

    The only fun to be had here is Friday when you know you have earned a lie in. Even then the twisted gods of early morning exercise make that you can't even have a lie in.

    Ha ha! Its hard to get your head round it sometimes but when you do its a great feeling! I feel quite glowing after yoga this morning, which is useful as the heating's not working ;)

    I was bang awake at four this morn...typical.
    Had to wait for park to open at half seven though.

    I do love a morning workout, sets you up for day.

    :) Its that period of Alarm going off and just waiting for everything to start working, but once up and left the house its no problem. Just make feel nice and calm when say at my desk chomping on my oats though.

    Anyways, Swim this morning :)

    Up at 5.30 and on the treadmill by 5.45am. Was a little bit of a struggle this morning but I knew I'd feel guilty if I didn't!!

    Hi please can I join you. I have been getting up at 6am to do fit in 15 dvd. Really feel it working now after 2 weeks, never thought I would stick with it as I could hardly breathe after the first workout. Stopped smoking a year ago this month, can count on one hand how much I drink a year. Wish I could say the same about chocolate. What motivated me to get off my bum apart from the shock factor when I got on the scales, was realising I was eating 1700 calories a day in chocolate and crisps alone. Cut out the junk and with the help of MFP I have lost 8lb in 2 weeks.
    To keep me motivated I have bought a fitbit one, late birthday present and early mothers day present to myself.

    Thankyou. 6am dvd. Did the legs workout, its the one I don't like as there is sprinting on the spot, I can't run/sprint , it kills. Don't think I will ever be able to tackle Shred at this rate. I won't give in though.

    I'm in! Up at 5.30am Monday, Wednesday and Friday to get to the gym for 6am when it opens.

    Was at the gym for 6am this morning (struggled though!). Had a good hour session of 45mins weights and 15mins of plyometrics/calisthenics (burpees, mountain climbers, star jumps, high knees).

    Well not exactly 6am (day off work) so went to the pool around 0900 and dropped in my first 1 mile freestyle, so quite chuffed with that. I started around September last year and was going well and then got knocked off my bike which set me back to the start again after a cheese induced Christmas.
