Weigh-in: What goes up…
If you're new here, you may want to get my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I couldn't do this without the help of my commenters!
As you can see from the graph the weight has been a bit all over the place this week. I’ve gone up a pound which is a little frustrating not ideal but it’s also not too surprising as I haven’t run as much this last week and I’ve been eating a bit too freely. I’m planning on working hard to try and trim down a bit more before my half marathon. Every pound lost will make me that little bit faster I reckon!
One of my favourite tv shows is restarting this week. Downsize me takes some folks and sets them on the path to healthy living through a good diet and exercise. It’s stupid and patronising at times but overall the message is good.
I find it rather motivating to see what people can do in 8 short weeks - and all sumarised in a 30 minute show. Coincidentally it happens to be 8 and a bit weeks to my half marathon! ;) I think this is why I love reading people’s blogs as well. I always tend to come away inspired when I read about how other normal folks have managed to get fit and healthy.

Here here to that! Love reading blogs now that I have one. Never read one until after I started writing my own. So motivating and such a learning experience. Learned more from other bloggers in the last year than from ever reading the news!

Downsize me sounds like a great show, but we don’t get it here. Biggest loser is all we get…
I agree I love reading blogs as so many people can achieve amazing things. I am often telling me in the real world that they can do anything that we want as long as they want it enough…

Downsize me is much more realistic than the biggest loser. It’s much more focused on things you can do at home.

I’m looking forward to Downsize me coming on too! Need a little inspiration to blow away this flu induced funk.
8 weeks to the marathon eh… that is super exciting. I can’t wait to get better and be able to run regularly again.

I agree with the others: this programme sounds like something I would enjoy.
Sorry for the gain, but really, a pound is nothing.

Hi I am laura and loves to read blog. I think yours will be added to my favorites.
I find it as a form socializing online when i read blog meet people with it. and ofcourse learning from it.
I suggest that you don’t worry to much on that pound you gain instead focus on how you will achieve your goals for the days to come.
