My current weight is 9 stone (57kg) My goal is to be a 8 stone (50 kg ) my weight before having my youngest son
Waist - 29 inches
Hips - 35 inches
Bust - 34 c
I have a hour glass shape which is everyone keeps telling is fabulous but I have problem areas that I would like to reduce, My bum is large, my thighs are not very toned and too wobbly for my liking and my belly is more jelly then belly I have no core muscles whatsoever and just about manage 4 press ups!
I have just completed the first part of my challenge.......Just.
My trainers found their way to my feet and we were off kinda!
So initially day one consists of 20 minute exercise alternating between walking for one minute and running for a minute. On paper I thought pfft this is easy how hard could it be. I got into my running gear (not that I own any) but something that was suitable and doubled it as it was freezing outside.
I couldn't find my koala bear hat so my deer stalker was my only option. I took my beloved henry he's my lovely dog, I thought if I start to fade least he can go and get some help!! Or just chase birds he did the latter.
Almost ready got my trusty mobile and headphones and we are off! Well walking wasn't too bad certainly didn't leave me feeling out of breath so I started to jog, I could feel my ankles hurting already think they were telling me off, if it not my brain telling then my feet join in screaming DON'T DO IT.
I persevered and then I got a stitch now I had only been running for less than 30 seconds and I had all this to contend with plus Henry pulling me in other directions when he saw a bird!
The route I took was pleasant if a little steep in places, I found myself worn out and struggling to recover my breath I will however be blaming my cold for this not my lack of fitness :-)
I did it though, I spent the entire time thinking of excuses to to give up, pull out but I continued and got indoors and my body went like jelly, my chest was burning, I was coughing so hard and I thought I may be sick, my trusty dog henry gave me lots of kisses whilst I was dying on the floor, which obviously help me recover in no time!
I think in all I am quite shock at how unfit I actually am, I hope this challenge steers me in the right direction because feeling this shattered after a 20 minutes of exercise is ridiculous! When my husband got in even he had been thinking I wonder if she did it, he thought I would find an excuse and just give up because I never finish anything. Hope Tracey, Cathie and Catherine managed better than me!
Bring on day 2!!!
This is how dedicated I am eating porridge yuck!
Well done you!!! I feel your pain TOTALLY!! I am just about to blog my attempt!
