Found the disappearing post !!!

Sorry Nina somehow my post that I thought disappeared appeared under your page.....technology !!! I'll stick to exercise as my hobby !!

Tuesday Night and Feeling Good!

I just wrote blog entry and then I think I lost it in cyber space...apologies if it reappears and I bore you stupid !!! Just to say that despite a mad day and not finishing work until 7pm I made it to circuit class where I definitely worked up a serious sweat...really pleased with the fact I can see progress in my cardio workout especially when I can do more star jumps and run more than ever before.
Tomorrow night I brave a new world of Stability ball...watch out everyone...let's hope I don't fall off!!

Jayne Franklin-The Week Ahead!

Well I've planned my week ahead and plan to go to circuit, stability ball (never been before !!) and saturday's dance aerobics...what's great about this challenge is that I can't let work or social excuses get in the way and I really want to use this month wisely. I'm off to a big event on Monday nght so I need to watch the alcohol intake and remember how I want to see the back of the next stone by xmas!
It was great to hear so many supportive comments on Saturday...thank you for your support and watch this space!!

About me

This picture was taken in the summer and is one of very few taken as I have been avoiding cameras for about the last 7 years!!! I won't bore you with the dark days of the last 7 years but what I will say is that I woke up one morning and didn't recognise the person in the mirror...more importantly I didn't 'feel' the same person. I had always loved exercise..I played tennis obsessively & loved aerobics but when life events took over and I stopped putting myself first I quickly slipped out of the exercise habit and before I knew it I was buying size 22 clothes. One thing that never changed though was that people around me cared very much about me and through steady persistence, a wonderful colleague at work (yes that's you Ruth!!), introduced me to Jane's classes. I felt so welcomed and at ease and it has been the catalyst I needed-my week is not complete without my exercise and over the last 3 months I have steadily increased the number of classes I do. It is fantastic to hear people commenting on how my shape is changing and I am 2 stone 12 lbs lighter than when this picture was taken !!! So my aim over the next month of blogging is to try and break the back of the next stone so I'll be giving you weight loss updates and a new picture as we go. One of the things I am particularly interested in is how my sleep patterns and energy levels are changing. Having said that it is time for me to go to bed now.....night night xxxx
