    Totally agree with Z.

    The more you excercise and run, the more muscle you will gain - which is heavier than fat. So you can actually gain weight when becoming healthier - i'd have to be like hercules for that to happen, but you know what i mean.

    Just don't focus on the weight issue. You change shape when you excercise (or don't excercise :o) and this is a better indicator of health than just your weight.

    Hello
    sohow did my first day go?

    hmmm. not bad!

    Cons
    could not sleep last night AT ALL hate Sunday nights always get so stressed about work
    v tired so "napped" tonight - not going to help.
    big dinner (chicken veg and 2 slices of bread)

    Pros
    did over 6 thousand steps
    ate breakfast
    had lovely soup for lunch
    had good lessons
    walked home from the station

    The walk home was a little much mind you! Hilarious near death experience with a dog - he wouldn't go back to his owner, instead turned round and walked towards me - me bricking it (big dog - and I in no way scared of dogs!) and then sat on my feet and looked up at me with big brown eyes so I made a fuss of him! I did think for a minute my time was up!

    So I did my exercise and i haven't eaten too badly.

    and now to work! ( I woke up about 1/2 an hour ago!!!)

    Hey Buffy, if you don't already run, pop over to the running club on the forum they are very friendly towards beginners ( i'm not a beginner but everything shows good advice).
    They can help you set achievable goals.
    Proud to be dealing with my debt:eek:

    TOTAL: £6,437 (04/01/2013) slowly but surely it is decreasing:D

    Buffy - be kinder to yourself :A An early night with a good (non work related) book sounds a better plan :)
