Those of you who know Lee and I will also know that we have had an inflation pump shoved up our bottoms for the past few years. This has resulted in our very over inflated weight gain, which we are now both very determined to do something about.
We are now on the same eating plan through weight watchers. I attend meeting with a friend every Wednesday evening, and Lee weighs himself on the same day. Lee is doing his through the online element of WW.
On the first of April I was weighed by my doctor and weighed a lot more than I thought I did. After that I decided to do something about it so I started the WW plan on May 13th 2009. Lee was not as shocked as I was about his weight, but has only been recording his weight for the past 2 weeks. In that time, he has also lost 5lb’s. I haven’t had his permission yet to put his weights on, but as soon as we have lost a significant amount, I am sure we will share figures with you. We may also put before and after pictures too.
What I will tell you is that in that time I have lost a stine in weight, and hopefully, now that I am almost back to normal health, I can pick the pace up!!
I have changed from having no physical activity in my life to now instead of driving from work straight to school to collect Sophie, I drive home and walk to the school. I get there just in time as she is coming out, but I save time having to drive around and around in circles trying to find a parking place. On Friday 5th June, I gained the help of a personal trainer. She is a friend of my sisters and she comes to the house every Friday now and goes through some exercises for me for the week and gives me some tips on how to improve on every day life, like ironing or hoovering with fast music on so taht I keep up with the beat.
Lee is much better than me, a couple of times a week, he rides his bike to work and back again, a total of 5.4 miles
He too is looking at trying to get a varied exercise plan going, so Sam, our personal trainer, will also look at alternatives for him.
Well, I will keep this updated as often as I remember, so can not promise it will be every week. Wish us luck xx
