Because I'm bl**dy well worth it!

Ooh, I can find *many* excuses not to do it Macgirl :rotfl: My record so far is getting to day 9, but then I am soooo bored of it and not yet ready to go on to the second stage. Have you seen physical results?

I don't think I could cope with Shred, but I am going to use my new Kinect to dance workout at least three mornings a week as I should be starting work at 12 rather than 9.

Mac...I broke my finger - but only AFTER shred, as I was taking my leggings off to get into the shower. Just caught it on the fabric and it snapped. :rotfl:

So....gym done, and I can definitely feel that I have been working after a few weeks off - I haven't been to the gym since the week I had that sickness bug at the beginning of December, so a month has gone by during which I have done little exercise and of course have eaten well.....my weight is still steady, but like I say, I certainly felt all of that when I was working out today!

Yes Benben, not a 6 pack, but defo a flatter stomach and more energy. When I'm running I feel like I have more power to run up hills which I'm sure is down to Shred. I found level 2 to be a KILLER, but as our Jill says - this is where the magic happens :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Horses for courses, but I had it for months before I started doing it regularly, now I'm glad I did

It was pretty horrid for 8 weeks or so, but thankfully is all ok now. For something so silly, it gave me a whole lot of grief!!!

I found that Shred helped with my running too, and once you get a couple of days into level 2 it really is not so bad!!

Are you signed up for any marathons this year then Hypno - I'm thinking about getting the wii fit out but so far only thinking...........

Poor Hypno! :kisses3:

Lol, and thanks KC - it is amazing how quickly you can forget that you have had 10 days or so away from the grindstone! Feels like I have never been away :rotfl:

Failed on the not buying coffee thing today, on account of little sleep and then finding that my milk was out of date and past its best....so by the time I passed Costa, I really did need caffeine. I have allowed myself one coffee a week, so this will have to be it, and I will ensure that I get some milk sorted before I get home!

I did bring in lunch today, though, so redeem myself a little. Roast beef salad.....:)

milann - I am signed up for the Brighton Marathon in April, but may decide to defer until next year. I am enjoying going to the gym but haven't been out running, so unless I suddenly get the urge to pound the pavements again, I need a bit more time.

Am signed up for spinning and pilates tomorrow - so today will be a non-exercise day, having gone to the gym yesterday.
