. At my fittest last year I think that would have taken me around two and a half hours, so it would seem that my fitness level has all but disappeared. The last seven miles were absolute torture, I just wanted it to be over and to be back to the car. I've planned another outing for early next week, hopefully the soreness should have worn off by then. Still no pain no gain!Just updated my tracker thing to find that I've put on 13 lbs since October. I am officially "obese" rather than just plain "overweight" again now and I've got 43 lbs to lose to get to my target weight. There's nothing like setting an ambitious target!
I was proud of myself at Waitrose on the way home from my ride when I decided that I wouldn't b*y the half price tub of Quality Street after all and returned them from my basket to the shelf. I b*ght some cheap brussell sprouts instead. They have got to be a better bet for weight loss.
I was dead impressed to hear of your 2 stone weight loss Moggers. That is an immense achievement - well done!! I'll be looking to you for tips. Also great to hear that you'll be doing the race for life and assisting with the Commonwealth Games press office too.
Been reasonably good today foodwise although I did succumb to a delicious free Waitrose cappuccino which was a tad naughty when I was shopping. Had porridge and blueberries for breakfast though, and had 30 gm of cashew nuts for a bit of a snackette just now. Will be having a massive chicken salad later on after a relaxing soak in the bath.
I've got my fingers crossed for you Rawr re the job - Also, I wanted to say how pleased I was to read that you met someone new after last year's shocking and upsetting news. Hope you have a fab 2014!
Needless to say I was exactly the same weight as yesterday morning 
Well done on the exercise front you are certainly in the zone
