Latest NSV - a huge one for me!! What was yours latest one?
I finally stopped talking about starting C25K and actually downloaded the podcast, got off my *kitten* and did my first "run". In the pitch black, after a long day, in -2c temperatures with 90% humidity - which, in case you don't know means that the cold gets right to the bone and feels ten times colder!! I felt like I was…

Finally found an exercise that makes me high!!
I have never before found an exercise or activity that gave me that "high" that people say you get from exercise. I felt a multitude of emotions and sensations but never anything positive, it was always pain, boredom, frustration etc. That is until I woke up one day last month and decided to buy a swim membership at my…

My NSV

My break is over, I'm back in the zone!
I've taken a break over the last year and had my third child. She's worth every second of what I went through to keep her safe, it got pretty close to the wire when I was about 5 months pregnant and spent nearly a month in hospital. It wasn't weight related at all, but it was definitely a wake-up call. I need to get my…

67lbs gone... still a work in progress
But here are my pics so far, I hope this works! The Aug 2009 picture is was taken days before I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child. I dropped about 28lbs while I was pregnant, and then I lost the rest since he was born in April 2010. I gained back 10lbs in June as I had gallbladder removal surgery, but that has now…
