Having spent the night at the hospital with my daughter, I came home and went straight to bed. Slept fitfully for a few hours then got up. Spent the afternoon with my daughter and her partner, and then some time this evening. I have managed to be fairly good with food, a blue cheese and …

Last night – my poor daughter
My little girl (actually she’s 22 and taller than me, but always my baby) called me last night at 1.30 to let me know she was having to go to hospital. She had been assaulted at work. So obviously Paul drove me to the hospital so I could be with her. My poor baby is …
22nd Aug 2019 – oh dear, take away.
I didn’t want to do a write up tonight. I had to remind myself that this is a totally honest account of my life as I strive to be healthier. Oh well…. I had eaten well today. Right up until tonight! Paul is away this weekend and needed the kitchen, one of his hobbies is …
Aargh! – what am i doing wrong! – sharing/reblogging
There are so many fabulous posts and blogs out there, I love them, i’m becoming a bit addicted to this! And sometimes I come across posts that I think are great for sharing (well actually loads of them, but if I did it with all those fab posts I wouldn’t end up with a blog …

Don’t forget to rest! – A post from Beth
Originally posted on Life…Take 2!:
This is really an open letter to myself because I am at a point in my own fitness journey where it is harder for me to take rest days than it is for me to get up and workout!! That may sound weird. Heck it sounds weird for me to…
A rest day from exercise!
Good Morning. Hope you are all well! Thought I would do a quick post about how I feel today – I started using heavier dumbbells in one of my exercises yesterday, and boy can I feel it today! I can feel it right across my shoulders, and my lower back, it’s not a bad feeling, …
21st Aug 2019 – where’s the veg!
Another good day! I was working from home today so managed my exercises during my lunch time. AND did a 3000 step extra walk this evening. I have to admit though, I am feeling a bit sore now! So for morning food, 2 hard boiled eggs, a handful of natural nuts, grapes and cherries. Then …
Exercise – sweating just thinking about it!
I’m lazy, as lazy as a person can be. For a couple of years, Paul and I would go for regular walks, every evening (weather dependent), sometimes going for a good few miles, other times, just doing two miles, that was great, got us out of the house, got us chatting. It did feel good, …

20th Aug 2019 – good day
Hello 👋 I feel pleased with today, I have eaten well and done my exercises. For food I had my nuts, eggs, grapes and those delish cherries, along with my salad – YUM! I feel I should have either left my salad until later in the afternoon, or kept back some of my fruit or …
19th Aug 2019 – missed my cherries!
Evening dear blog! Feeling tired today, I’m not used to late nights anymore, or alcohol for that matter, the weekend was fab but knackering. I’m not sure if I’ll be doing exercises today, if I’m doing any exercises in the evening I always wait for a while after dinner, as my digestive system seems to …
