    Hi Fred can i join in? :):):):):)

    Lost 2lbs this week, started a few weeks ago and have lost a total of 7lbs although I guess its very easy to lose the first ones.

    I noticed there is an exercise thing going on, can someone enlighten me as to the rules? :D

    didn't have time to go on the scales yesterday morning as I slept in a bit... Today it says 82.1kg so +0.2kg :(
    never mind, I expected it anyway because of my bad weekend... I am being good and will make up for it asap :P
    Aiming for two hours on the bike today(did we start the 24h challenge yet or first tomorrow? either way please fred can I join England and 2x24h - bit ambitious but I usually do 24 anyway so not a real challenge there...) and had 30 mins walk with the pushchair this morning too... I'll try to fir in as much as I can :)

    Fred, put me down for 24 hours of exercise please, thanks :D

    Went out jogging this morning (left home before 6a.m). My usual route - 6.98 miles/ 11km. Did it in 1 hour 21 mins :D

    The last time I went out jogging back in April, I did it in 1 hour 23 mins so very happy with my time today as thought I'd slipped considerably :T

    Then came home and did Insanity - Cardio Recovery - 41mins :D

    Then went to the gym - Bike - 5k - 29mins :D
    Powerplate - 10mins :D

    Then put my bike in the car and took car to the mechanic for it's MOT then cycled back home 3.5 miles. Took me about 30mins.

    I'm bloody knackered and waiting for mechanic to call me to come collect car which means another 3.5 miles cycling to pick it up or I'll be waiting forever for the bus. Oh joy!!!

    Well done maryoshka!! Woo to FRED being joint slimmer of the weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! Apologies to the other person who's name i've forgotten!

    I have a cold, its an odd cold. Mainly a sexy voice but with no pain, and then completley wiping me of all energy that came on in literally an hour last night. Its the oddest thing ever, but really horrible! So no gym for me untill this goes.
