Hello everyone. I know a bit about fitness etc, -it's just a case of following my own advice!
Update 3rd July 2008
Have had a few setbacks- injured feet and knees, and have really lapsed. Put on another 4lbs... Feels like a bit of a catch 22- my feet are not healing because there is too much weight on them, which doesn't help my knees either, but I am limited in exercise options because of the knees and feet, and general fatigue...

Oh well, I'll dust myself off and try again!
Be nice to get my belly flattened a bit so people can stop asking me if I'm pregnant.
Update 22/11/08:
Have been doing really well with exercise- very consistent for the last 4 months- I got an exercise bike and use it for 30 mins every day.
Update 9/05/09: Lost total 21lbs (put some on before I started losing it) now at 9st 10lbs :)

Fitness Minutes: 12,058
My Goals:
Establish & maintain a healthy eating and exercise routine and lifestyle.
Gradually increase how much I am able to do.
Get up to 50 pressups, 10 chinups and 5mins of doing the plank. Get under 4mins for 1000m on the rower. Eventually maybe under 3:30. (Would love to be able to do 30-60 mins hard cardio, not sure if it's possible with my health probs but maybe!)
Lose around 30lbs of fat, and gain around 7-14lbs of muscle (guessing) LOOOOOONG term goals!
My Program:
Taking vitamins every day, aim to meditate daily
Stationary biking 30 mins per day, gradually increasing intensity. Can be done in several sessions or in one go.
Strength training- haven't got into a routine with this yet.
Personal Information:
27 yrs old Living in England
Have chronic fatigue and muscle pain (fibromyalgia) and weakness in neck & lower back following injury.
Have Plantar fasciitis and patellar tendonitis, which means I can't be on my feet for long and I also have to be careful not to put strain on my knees. Losing some excess baggage would help.
Other Information:
Books I have found useful:
Frederic Delavier -Strength Training Anatomy (original & womens edition)
Nicole Ronsard - Beyond cellulite
Susan Jeffers- Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway
Elaine N. Aron - The Highly Sensitive Person
Eileen Mulligan- Life coaching
