I had the shock of my life when I stood on our bathroom scales recently and realised how much over my ideal weight I was - I was a 14lbs more than I was expecting - so I've started a healthy eating and exercise plan to try and lose some of this donut-induced flab!
However, as I am short of cash at the moment, I'm trying out the EA Games fitness programme for Wii. I've done my first two days of exercise and, other than a couple of aches, it seems to be going well. Has anyone else tried this? Did it work? My ultimate goal is to sign on at a gym at some point, but given that I've done no real exercise other than walking the dog for the last five years, I'm hoping that this will give me some level of fitness so that I don't collapse during the gym induction.
So, here's my story - 40lbs to lose and I'm setting myself a six month target...
