    If you were closer I could lend you my exercise bike, was about £70 from amazon 2 years ago, its a fold away one but after a couple weeks I really got into it esp listening to my MP3 player.

    Thinking about it I should get back on it.....my excuse is not much room at Dads now, did wonders for my legs though, I have fat thighs, always have since I was a kid hate them lots!

    So yeah get a cheap bike, I refuse to join a gym and exercise in front of other humans!! :p

    Spent the afternoon watching the footie (which I am gutted about :mad:) and eating loads - final blowout, now the serious stuff starts

    It's been another NSD and I've put £1 in my 365 account and rounded up my balance. So far not much planned for January, would be great if I could be really frugal this month and then payoff Barclaycard at the end of the month :D

    • lose 2lbs
    • exercise twice
    • get to work by 8.30
    • be in bed by 11.00
    • daily skincare routine
    • gradual tan everyday
    Looks achievable - wish me luck :p

    Good luck :D
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
