Today was the 1st day of me getting back into shape after 6 years of no exercise I finally pulled me fingure out my bot bot and cycle to work today, this will now happen on mon/wed/fri unless needs are a must and I have to get onto the petrol powered two wheeler…
I think on this one I’m a winner all round, I get fit and back into shape. I save money on petrol and wear and tear on the bike and I get to have a proper look at all the little fit hunnies on the way to a from work…
After 15 years of no exercise, I’ve been on a mission to say goodbye to my unfitness for almost a year. I’ve made a complete u-turn and have now become addicted to exercise!! I go to the gym every weekday before work and sometimes play netball matches 2 evening a week on top :w00t:
bloody hell u two !! hold up !!! im going dizzy just reading what u are up to !!! well, all i can say is, this is my 3rd week of going to the gym 4 nights a week…its painful, its hardwork, i dont LIKE it one bit…but i must say i do feel a BIT better for it (at the moment, hopefully it will get better as i go on, cos next day i cant get out of bed !!! aching muscles etc ;))…
Im being tested at the moment for intolerance to Wheat, etc…so whenever the results come back i may have to change my whole food intake to leave out anything to do with wheat and replace with gluten free foods…(now im not looking forward to THAT one bit, but know it will make me feel better in the long run)…by the way, anyone whos got this kind of thing…celiac disease or whatever its called? give me a pm please, cos id like to know more about it?
My docs only just sending me for these tests today, after years of me going to them and having various other tests done…but my gripe is, everytime i go for a test, i have to wait 2 to 3 wks for the outcome…then we find that ones ok so they send me for another and i have to wait again, and so it goes on…meanwhile im still having problems and not getting any better !!
Hence me deciding to go back to the gym to try and get a bit fitter in order for whatever they find wrong with me !!! (does that make sense?)
I statred to make this turn around last October… not lost weight, but i def do feel better for it, and you do get addicted to exercise.Keep up the good work…
well it’s good to see I’m not the only one then we should setup a support group. think I’m going to need it by the end of the week.
for me it is mostly getting back into shape than loosing a whole load of weight. I would like to turn what I have into muscle which I know weighs more than fat so no to bothered completely about the weight side of things.
i wish i could join u but as im stuck at home with very little to do.my leg still not to good and any proper exercise is out for me now as im doing all my workout in a swimming pool coz my knee is in a terrible state after yet another operation .i did loose a lot off weigh in hospital and at home,about 4 stone but this was due to the c differsil i got from hospital,i would`t recomened it as a diet,still im back up to a nice 16 stone and 20 fags a day but i do have a good excuse.my girl freind has been giving me somethink called fruit,yuk but still like mars bars much better.hope to be out and about soon.
Keep up the good work Sleeper it will soon start dropping off you. Cardio is the best way to lose that excess fat and cycling is as good a way as any.
I go to the gym about 4 times a week and have managed to lose around 4 inches from my waist. The weight has stayed pretty much the same, as you say muscle does weigh more than fat, but i feel so much better about myself and hopefully when the summer does actually get here i won;t be wrapped up in long trousers and big baggy t-shirts.
Even Frederic is coming along tonight, so we’ll see how fit he is’nt hahaha
I’ve been off the beer for six weeks now. I just thought I’d give it a try. Belly has started to go but my arse is a bit bony now so not as comfortable to sit on.
