Upper body weights. No running - I need Ilene's after me! It was DARK! And DF wasn't home to protect me from the dark! I'm going to try and keep running in Japan!

OOOUUUCCCHHH

I did weights yesterday and increased the weight on most of them (plus tried a few new lifts), then swam this morning and my arms feel like they're made of lead. Good I suppose, as it must be working

I ran for about half an hour round the park this morning.

This afternoon I will mainly be exercising my drinking arm.

it was tough! with this weight loss battle i'm much more disciplined with exercise than with food

I work 18miles from home and am truly debating cycling to work. I have little lights on my bike and a florescent jacket (no giggling! ) I just need a helmet!!


hmmm, that would mean leaving the house at 5.30-6am to be sure I get to work at 8am... then leaving work at 4.30pm and cycling until around 6.30pm...



i don't like this idea... why did i even start thinking at all!

13miles cycle on sunday, 20minute brisk walk and 3 hours on my feet waitressing.

today 15miles cycle (8hours behind a desk !!) followed by another 3.5miles because i felt i hadn't done enough and i wanted to punish myself. I feel very at the moment because I can't get or discipline myself to reach what I want and it's frustrating me. maybe i'm not ready to do this after all... its just that i know if i don't try now i'm just going to get bigger...

God that was hard work yesterday, I cleaned up the back garden for winter, my back is killing me from all that patio scrubbing.... I must have been at it for over 3 hours! Mind you I'll pat myself on the back as it looks good now!

I went to the gym after work, 30 minutes hill walking, 20 minutes cross trainer then off home again.
