Oh My God, This is the hardest thing I have ever done!

Well what can I say apart from this is the hardest thing I have ever done. Wake up at 6 ready for a morning stretch and warm up (which I will say is pretty hard), 7am breakfast that contains very little, like a small bowl of seeds and plain muslie. 8am we are back out for a 3 mile walk followed by an 1.5 hours of core work a little jogging and warm down ready for our morning snack, something like a rice cake, we then go back and do circuits or asult course till lucn then more walking or more circuits and core. We finsish between 5.30 and 6pm with a very small dinner and caffine is not allowed at anytime!

I have to mention a lot of people here. The girls that I am with, weather weekenders or a full week are very aspiring. We exercise together, we eat together we laugh together, we gee each other on, and most of all, when we are feeling a little low, we pick each other up and give each other a tissue. Now that is support and I think that some very special friendships will be made during this week.

Now the instructors have to be called Staff. We have Staff P and Staff W. I have to say that they really push you, but most of all they motivate you. I had a bit if an emotional wobble this morning and the encouragement I got from the Staffs were fantastic. I now have a great deal of respect for each of them, and the way they vary things is great.

On the down side, we can feel every muscle, we are in pain, everything hurts, I have blisters on my feet, blisters between my boobs but I can already feel my fitness levels start to come through. I have achieved things in two days that I never thought I would achieve in my life. It may be a lot of money, but it is worth every penny.

Right I am off for a nice hot bath to relax my muscles as as soon as I stand up I will have seized up!

TiIl tomorrow

Ps will have pictures uploaded tomorrow

Packing for boot camp

OMG! I am now pooing myself about GI Jane Boot Camp. I have nearly packed and still thinking what the hell have I got myself into.

Last night I had little sleep thinking about it, and really need to get up early for my interview with CHristian and the team tomorrow.

I spoke to Sharon today from GI Jane, she was the founder of the camp and she seem really nice. I am meeting her and an instructor for coffee tomorrow morning before we go on air.

Well must finish packing. So speak tomorrow

Getting ready for GI Jane Camp

Well I have spent an arm and a leg getting things for camp including waterproofs etc etc. I am now feeling very nervous about Friday and wondering if I have made a very grave mistake...... I am sure that I will be fine though!

The people at the camp have been really nice to me and assured me that I will xome out feeling positive and ready to bring on the rest of the weight loss challenge.

On Thursday Richie is going down to the camp to meet Carol (the owner) and one of the PT intructors for an interview and they will be taking him through his paces, and then they hope for Richie to joinme for a day later on in the week!

This weekend has been a little off the rails so I need to get back on track from now till boot camp. I am in Sheffield tomorrow, Manchester Tuesday, Bracknell Wednesday, Uxbridge Thursday........... At some point I will get a chancde to pack!

Will blog tomorrow night from the Hotel. Till then, speak soon x

Back from Madrid

Well what a few days that was. Far to much drink, very little to eat and poor old James smashed a few teeth.

The food was terrible, every veg was pickled, all the meat was cured or raw (espcially the chicken).and the wine was vinegar. Just wish that I didn't manage to drink so much of the vinegar!!!

So looking forward to GI Jane Boot Camp next Friday so off the booze now till I go then a week off it when I am there!!!! That will be the longest I have gone without for years!

So off to weigh my self in a moment then have a nice early night. Tomorrow I have to shop for all my GI Jane gear otherwise I will be going there with nothing!!!

Speak later :-)

Off to Madrid

Well it's 3.30am and I am off to Madrid with work for 3 days. I wouldn't have minded only on Monday night my back deciede to do one and last night/this morning i have barely slpet due to spasms. The good thing is that I won't be drinking as I am taking tramadol, the bad thing is I have to walk round Madrid all day today taking photos. Not to sure how bad my back will get!

Oh well, as long as it is OK for next Friday!

So I did a little interview on the Absolute Breakfast show yesterday morning about Richie coming to Zumba and it was really very funny. I am also confused about what playing a trumpet and Zumba have in common, but horses for courses LOL.

We also discussed the GI Jane Boot Camp that I go to next week and Christian thought it was expensive. I think it is a brilliant gift to ones self, you could even call it selfish but it is an investment in me!

Well speak to you all soon!

The day after Richie came to Zumba

Well what a day yesterday was. First I had to be in SHeffield for 8.30am which meant a really early start then had to be back for the Zuma class that Richie from Absolute was attending. What great fun it was to. I wasn;t convinced that he thought it would be tiring but I think that he has changed his mind now.

It was a hard night and I have pulled a muscle in my back and in loads of pain now. Not looking foward to getting on a plain early tomorrow. Actually, I am not even sure how the hell I am going to even beable to get the suitcase out of the loft. I may need to call ona few friends tonight for help! Any offers please feel free to call me!

So off to Madrid for 3 days, and at least I will be off the booze cause I can't drink with tramadol.

Did anyone hear my interview on the breakfast show today? If not go to www.facebook/christianoconnell and you can watch Richie do Zumba.

Still looking forward to GI Jane Boot Camp only my back is in peices so hopefully it will be better by then with a little accupuncture and cupping....... Thanks for the cupping tip Sonja will pop down there today and see if they can see me.

Speak soon all and good luck

What a weekend

Well I slightly slipped off the wagon on the way of Alchole after hearing some very bad news about a friend, however, I didn;t eat so saved some calories there!

So 3lb lost so far and not really very pleased with that so I am really looking forward to going to GI Jane boot Camp on the 24th. I really need some motivation and am losing heart rapidly!

Working in Sheffield today and been good and brought a big bottle of water for the journey so that I wouldn't want to pick and that worked really quite well. At the office tomorrow and in Madird with work till friday then. I will try my hardest to keep away from the booze but no promises!

PLease give em some motivation I need it!!!!!

Big kises to Danielle who went back to hospital on Saturday. SOrry for not making it I had some bad news :-(

Looking forward to seeing Tracey tonight it has been so long since we caught up. I know that she will motivate me in a big way so looking forward to it :-)

To all the girls at Zumba tonight, Richie will be coming along tonight so be prepared!

Speak soon and will send some info over from Madrid on how well (or may be not) I am doing

Take care all
