HI Katy, thanks for the suggestions, I've just seen them and will defo be giving them a go!

Already worked out for today, but will try to do them over the weekend.

Today, I did week 3 of c25k, which was actually pretty easy today, so moving onto a week 4 a day early, I can't wait until I'm doing the bigger numbers!

I also did a great mainly arm workout with my resistance band, I did two sets, and by the end of the second round, I could REALLY feel it, so hoping to do it often and slowly but surely add reps/sets as my arms improve.

I did 15 reps and 2 sets of the following using the band-

squats
bent over rows
alternate lying chest presses (15 reps each side)
diagonal wood chops (15 reps each side)
triceps extensions (15 reps each side)
lateral rows
Bicep curls

Now for a healthy dinner n then some TV before an early night. Work tomorrow, at least it stops me from eating!

may have to take some time away from the internet for awhile. i'm way too addicted, instead of actually accomplishing something around here.

Hey Katy,

I hope your time away helps you accomplish your 'real life' goals. Don't stay away too long though!

Identically, I'm addicted too, but having sold my car, on a massive money save, losing our cable TV on Monday, all due to the big countdown to moving back home to the UK, if I wasn't on here all day, I'd go mad (or eat chocolate!)

Take Care x
