I have learned the hard way that if you don’t make the time to exercise, you won’t get the time.  What happens?  Well, you end up in that rut you’ve been in for months or even years! What many women fail to realise is that by looking after themselves, they’re also doing something for their [...]

My husband loves exercising and going to the gym and has always been sporty and I always wondered why he never did anything about it before, but today he finally decided that he really wants to be a personal trainer! I have found a course for him to do (he’s outside mowing the lawn, and [...]

I last posted in the weight loss diary of this site almost a couple of weeks ago and was saying how my life was about to take an amazing turn which would allow me to put my health and fitness first! That amazing turn has not yet happened, although I am another step closer, and [...]

For a life coach, I’ve not been setting a good example for this transformation thing I want to do, but that is all going to change.

So how are things going you might ask?  Well, in between being sick, tired and unmotivated, I’ve surprisingly done quite well.  I even managed to get my three sets of 30 minutes of exercise in – [...]

I went to the gym today when I noticed a couple of women who were quite obese, working out on the treadmills.  They were still on the treadmill when I left, half an hour later.  Both were walking slowly too, not varying their pace at all.  In fact, neither of them looked as though they were [...]

Ok, if it weren’t for the fact that I am sick – AGAIN! – I think I’d be doing a lot better than I am.  Needless to say, the scales are working in my favour, telling me I’ve lost more weight.  How, I am not sure because I haven’t done a lot more than usual, [...]
