Argh, last night a few moments after starting my work out my heart rate monitor stopped working. Isn’t that just typical, things always break just after Christmas when you could have had replacements as gifts!
It’s the first heart rate monitor I have ever owned, I assume that the battery has just gone but I am [...]

Well I actually did what I said I would, I put together my new elliptical — which works fine but is very squeaky, I need to look into that — and I worked out on it for the first time in a few weeks. I then also did my old aerobics video.
Working out twice in [...]

I didn’t end up setting up my new elliptical today, in the time I had planned to do it we had a guest over…a guest that stayed for over 2 hours — groan.
I am not an anti social person really, I just don’t understand why people go around to someones house unannounced and stays for [...]

Argos came and collected my broken Elliptical today and replaced it with a brand spanking new one, that’s going to be my job first thing tomorrow…setting it up again…I expect that even though it’s the fourth time I have done it now it’s still going to take me well over an hour, ugh.
If this one [...]

As of Wednesday, when I get my replacement elliptical — I am going to do aerobics in the mornings and elliptical in the evenings for at least 6 days. Having this week off when I hadn’t planned for it has freaked me out and with Christmas just around the corner I feel I really should [...]

Oh man…I…hurt…so….bad.
My calfs, my stomach, my neck — I suppose it’s ‘good’ pain really, in the sense that it’s a result of exercise so I must have been doing something right, but still…I’d rather be able to walk and move my head.
I did a new DVD work out last night — I say new, I [...]

Gahh, I went to use my elliptical tonight for the first time in over a week — I’d not used it for a while due to being busy and then having a mild migraine last week — the bloomin thing wasn’t working right. I am not sure what has happened exactly, it seems like something [...]

Have I mentioned before that I love nothing more than getting post? Yeah, I am sure I have. I am sure I have also mentioned I love getting free things, free is my favourite kind of thing.
So I can’t resist applying for freebies when I come across them, who cares if I don’t want it, [...]

I didn’t lose any weight again this week, but that’s OK because I only worked out twice…oops…tonight I am going to do some hardcore cardio, I need a change from my beloved elliptical! I’ll definitely stick at it and persevere, I didn’t come this far to give up now and I won’t turn to diet [...]

I have mentioned before, my work out equipment of choice is the elliptical — I always head for it at the gym and I have one at home.
I love it, I love the work out it gives me, but I have been using it for almost a year now and I am considering trading it [...]
