9 Days is Too Long!

I've been meaning to blog for a couple of days, but I was enjoying the sun and not doing any exercise! It's not because I've been lazy, it's due to the medical advise. Well really my Osteopath, who said I should not run for a least a week. I made it to 8 days, so I reckon that's a good effort not to run. Yesterday I got a mini weigh in fear and had to do some exercise.



I've had a boozy week. Monday I was invited to a Press Launch on boat. It was such a nice day and with free drinks and a 3 course dinner, how could I refuse. It was for the Discovery Channel's Autumn preview. I got a phone call from the Picture Editor, asking if I wanted to join them, as they had a cancellation. I was more than happy to go along!



Thursday was my try out the back at the gym day. I was a little worried, as I have struggled with various aches in realtion to the pain, but I was determined to test it out. I can't not visit the gym, it's part of my weekly routine! I got on quite well. Managed 20 minutes on the Cross Trainer, 10 minutes walking briskly and 5 minute gently run. It did start to feel a little achy afterwards, but I'm glad I tired it out.

I was really in 2 minds this morning. I didn't want to go to the gym, but I knew with the lack of exercise and extra portion of pasta last night I needed to make an effort!!

I stayed the same weight this week, which in itself is impressive. AND it still means I have 0.5lb to loose before I get my keychain. I think you would be right in saying I'm a bit lame at this weight loss rubbish! Anyway. It's the sunniest day of the year so far, so yay for drinking rose at lunch!
