I took part in my 2nd Race for Life yesterday with two of my daughters and my 11yr old granddaughter.

2 years ago, and six stones heavier, I didn't take part in the Zumba warm-up session, but did manage to struggle round the 5k course in what, for me at the time, was a fairly respectable 78 minutes.

Yesterday I did the Zumba session AND completed the course in 57 minutes, knocking 21 minutes off my previous time.

Yep, I'm a happy girl today!!!!!!

    Fantastic //wtg!! I need some inspirition after losing 8lb 3 weeks ago on 1400 cals per day, since then Ive been on 1200 cals and put on!! 5lbs. To see someone lose all that weight is wonderful, giving me the incentive to either up my exercise intensity and go back to 1400 or stay on 1200 and lower the intensity. What would you recommend. What worked for you?

    You have to do whatever feels right for you. Sometimes the less I eat the less I lose - I've tried to copy others and failed, so now I just try my best - it doesn't always work but the one thing I will say is never give up - we all have off days, the only way is to put it behind you and start afresh. What's done is done!

    Good luck all!
