WELCOME

Hello there everyone, and welcome to my blog (hats off to 'Blogging for Dummies' for teaching this dummy how to....you know!).

I am overweight; make that very overweight. I think the technical term is 'morbidly obese'....ouch! Over the last few years I have had a few health warning shots, enough to make me realise that although there is nothing going on with my health that can't be reversed; my time is running out to do something about it before something really bad happens.

So this is my journey to health, and the plan is an ambitious one. I want to lose weight, and I want to get fitter; fit enough to run the Manchester 10k in May of 2012, fit enough to run a half marathon towards the end of 2012, and then fit enough to run the London Marathon in 2013, where the blogging journey will end at the finish line down the Mall.

I write this in the hope that the words and thoughts of both myself and readers can inspire me when the journey gets difficult, then hopefully people can be inspired by my story; believing that the most difficult journey is possible.

I make a promise to you that I will be honest - if the wheels fall off and I have six pizzas in two days, I will come clean - and I will do my very best. Share it with me.

......Wish me luck!!

Better!!

Bouncing back today, yay! Cooked a nice turkey mincey, mushroomy, oniony thing (no butter, aren't I virtuous?!) and did 70 minutes on the Wii Fit. Watered my plants and in bed before eleven! I think I got more done tonight than I did in the whole of the weekend. So all in all I am feeling pretty positive today. Feeling negative tomorrow may well count as severe mood swings; hope not.

Weigh in tomorrow. I have a bad feeling as it hasn't been the best of weeks for exercise, and although I haven't exactly been binging on chips, I think I could have done better with what I did eat. I will settle for breaking even.

I've been looking at the stats for this blog, and we've broken 50 views! Mostly from the UK, but I would like to say ein grosses 'Guten abend' to the German reader/readers (may I say I would have no chance of losing weight in your country; too many Wurst to choose from!), und vielen dank um meinen blog zu lesen (my GCSE German teacher would be so proud!). I've also seen a few American viewers; now I have no trouble in translation here if I want to say hello......errrr.......hello!! Thanks for reading; hope I can reward you with a few pounds off tomorrow.

(blimey; the spell check has gone barmy with this post.....poor thing!)
