Moving on (tea now made - sigh).
How I am feeling today:
Having launched myself into an intense exercise regime, I promptly hurt myself and ended up at the osteopath.
Since then I have mellowed out the routine and am building up slowly. I have also been to the massage therapist once and have another appointment on Saturday, to try and help sort out my lower back problems. The first session made a great improvement, so I’m hopeful that the next one will help me even further.
The punch line is I have now lost half a stone (aka seven pounds). And even though no one but JP has noticed any changes (if he’s lying, he’s really good at it and I am not about to force the truth from him on this occasion), it’s still a big deal to me because the most I have been able to loose in many, many years (before I got bored or discouraged and just quit) is four pounds. So hooray for me. Now I am almost as great as Jedi dog!
I am off to watch something on my BBC Iplayer and dream of the porridge I’m going to make for my breakfast.

You really need better dreams than of porridge.
yay!
Porridge with salt...if you want to be really Scottish, and a bit sick.
Yay, well done, girl! Way leads to way. Hope you're enjoying the journey. x
Oo... porridge and tea...
I too am trying to shake about 15 - 20 pounds! Just renewed the gym membership, and hoping for success over the winter months.
Good luck to us!
I totally know what you mean about making the hot cuppas. I am now in the habit to stay by the mug, tea bag, and tea kettle until all is said and done. Mmmmmm, I love my hot cuppas! Scottish Blend has DEFINITELY become my favorite. Sad thing...is that it is getting more difficult to find online to buy!!!
On another note, congratulations to you on your success. Keep at it. I believe in you! You CAN do it! Hugs! :)
I see a traditional Chinese doctor. He always gives me shit when I complain about a lack of energy in the winter and how I need to exercise more. "Winter for gain weight," he says. "Sleep lots, eat good food, store energy for summer. Better for body."
I'm skeptical, but part of me thinks a yoga class might be better for me than all this damn running and food guilt.
Mmmm, porridge. With a spoonful of honey. Mmmm.
Congratulations on the loss of seven lbs. That is actually a lot of weight. Imagine seven sticks of better -- stuck to you body. Now it's all gone. You're my hero! :-)
