My Journey - Warts and All

For a while now, I've said that I was going to do a challenge of some sort and I've ended up doing the Race for Life and nothing else. But this year, I've signed up for my biggest challenge to date. I'm doing the Edinburgh Moonwalk!!! 26 miles on a Saturday night on June!! Oh ya, is all I can say. I think over the next 15 weeks the treadmill at the gym will become my best friend. https://moonwalkscotland2014.everydayhero.com/uk/claire-11 Please dig deep and sponsor me for it. It's going to be a huge boost to my weight loss but more importantly I'm raising money in the fight against cancer. It affects 1 in 3 of us, that's a huge number that needs to reduce. On a weight loss note, I did spin for the first time last night. Ouch!!! I was exhausted and I felt like my legs were on fire and I only did 40 mins. It was good though, I loved the feeling afterwards. I didn't weigh in this week but I will on Sunday and we'll see. I have my personal training ...

Well another week done and dusted and it's been a terrible week in terms of what I've eaten in that I've eaten what I really fancy. So here goes the weigh in Last week: 18st 9lbs (261 lbs) Lost - 1lb Current weight: 18st 8lbs (260 lbs) Bit of a surprise if I'm honest but I'll take it!! It's been a quiet week otherwise really. Spent the week concentrating about getting stuck into my new job and will incorporate the gym this week. It's been quite hard going back to working 5 days a week and I've been knackered lol! I've also discovered a new wee snack, it's a wee biscuits/cheese/chutney by a company called LowLife. Gorgeous!!!! I'm planning to do my first spin class this week. Well it's not a spin class as such. The bikes in my gym have a setting that mean I can set them to take me through a spin class. Not going to be a good experience for the people on the bikes next to me but hey ho :-) The class in my gym are all only 30 mins lo...
