Operation fit and fabulous

On Operation Fit and Fabulous we have been gradually building up the list of good habits to get into.

So far, we have on the list as tasks

• Drink 2 litres of water a day
• Dry skin brushing daily
• Being good to yourself
• Eating 5 a day
• Exercising for 1 hour 3 times a week
• Getting enough sleep

Weight loss begins again. No, really…

doing things differently

So. In less than a week I am going to be doing my half marathon, my much blogged, trained for and longed for day is almost here.

I have been struggling this last week with endo which has been causing me no end of pain and tiredness. I am so hoping it won’t be in full effect on Sunday.

Anyway….aside from that my learning curve with training has been huge, and already there are things I would do differently. And things I WILL do differently, for the next half marathon – oh yes, I am booked onto the Reading Half in April with my Team Bangs buddy Sarah Scribbles – the journey of improvement has begun.
