A Bit About Me

So Im doing Michelle Bridges 12 WBT.....for the 7th time. Each time I did it in the past I flunked out on one excuse or another. I always did the Beginners Program and when I stuck to plan I lost weight. But always allowed myself to go off plan and once I did it was downwards from there.

This time I am trying her new Move Program for really obese people like me. Im hoping I can keep up with the exercise because I do struggle to move. My weight makes it harder to move around and my knees and back often hurt. Of late I have also had pain in my hips despite massage and Chiropractic treatment. I believe my weight is to blame.

So I have one more pre-season task to do and some cooking this afternoon to get ready for tomorrow which is day 1 of the first round of 12 WBT for 2014. Its my last chance to myself.

My weight at this moment is 163.5 kg, Im 181 cm tall. See you on the other side.

What's the story morning glory?

Today is a special day. It's a day I have made for myself and will be one I celebrate every year. It is the day that will become my fit anniversary. It will make the day that I changed my life for the better by making the decision to improve my health. I have signed up for the 12 WBT with Michelle Bridges.

So this morning I got my bum out of bed early and did 15 min walking on the treadmill. 15 min of constant movement, AWESOME!

I know to some it's not a big deal but for me it's huge because that's what I am, huge. At the moment I have been dealing with a sore hip and back for over 3 weeks and a knee that is painful and swollen. Problems that occur when I go over a certain weight, 165kg to be exact. I know this because I have done this so many times and 165kg is what I call my breaking number. Its the weight I hit when my body starts to let me know its just too much to carry.

So what is the story morning glory? Well I don't yet but I'll write it here. I do know it will be a drama, a comedy and even an adventure. One that all began this morning on a treadmill when this fabulous lady moved her bum.

Looking fab at 6:30am!
