I’ve not blogged for far too long – probably because I’ve not been in the zone. But that’s exactly the topic of what I’m going to call my comeback blog! Every year I start with good intentions to lose my Christmas weight and generally be fitter. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn’t. There areContinue reading “In the zone?”

Run on, ride on…
As I mentioned in my last blog, I’ve not really ran for some time. So when a friend asked me to run on Wednesday evening, I felt I couldn’t say no. Despite it being around two months since I last ran (and that run wasn’t one for the record books!), I managed a 6+ mileContinue reading “Run on, ride on…”
Hello?
At the request of @fawcylad, here’s a new blog, and the first of a series of two. The best thing about my blog is how I post frequent updates about my weight loss journey, which engage and inspire others. Well, I don’t do that, but it was my plan. However, the truth of the matterContinue reading “Hello?”
Hitting the wall
Just a quick post today. As I mentioned in my last health-based rambling, I was a bit naughty the weekend before last. As a result, I am working hard to try and recover from some of the “badness” before tomorrow’s weigh in! However, in doing this, I have learned the meaning of the term “hittingContinue reading “Hitting the wall”
Hello? Anybody there
Latest loss: 0.5lb. Total loss to date: 12lb Hello everyone. Sorry, I have been incredibly lame in posting. I am sure you all thought I’d given up and abandoned the blog/weight loss. Well I’m pleased to say this isn’t the case, although I didn’t weigh in this week. The loss above, of half a pound,Continue reading “Hello? Anybody there”
A new first
A couple of posts back, I mentioned my run from hell. If you remember back, it seemed to be the piece of exercise where everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. Thankfully I’ve ran a couple of times since then and have even started to enjoy these runs. In fact, I completed a newContinue reading “A new first”
That’s more like it
This week’s weight loss (phew): 4lb. Total loss: 11.5lb Well after last week’s disappointment, I was pleased to find I had achieved a decent loss this week. My aim for the week was always to lose what I had put on and then a little bit more, but after a gain, I was nervous aboutContinue reading “That’s more like it”
Run from hell
I was going to tie this post in to my last blog post, but it wasn’t really connected, and I thought it’d sit better on its own. I’ve only ran four times this year so far. I want to run a lot more. I need to run a lot more if I am to hitContinue reading “Run from hell”
Uh-oh
This week’s gain: 2.5lb. Total loss to date: 7.5lb. Well I think I jinxed it last week when I said I didn’t want to be writing about a gain too soon! Perhaps not, but I can think of a few other reasons why I didn’t do too well this week: These include the fact thatContinue reading “Uh-oh”
This week’s loss
This week’s loss: 3lb. Total loss: 10lb. Hopefully I won’t have to title a blog ‘this week’s gain’ anytime soon! Sorry for the delay in posting this week’s update. No real reason other than having a manic evening after I got weighed on Thursday and then forgetting. So I was pleased to have a biggerContinue reading “This week’s loss”
