Hi all

I am surprised at how much better I feel in myself since loosing a few of those pounds. Energy levels are great and I was looking at joining Virgin Active until I checked my bank statements!!!

So, for the past four weeks been doing the wii fit. Well trying, set my self a challenge programme but could never complete it.
Keep feeling dizzy on some of the motion exercises when on the board (cycling).

So I now do the step and started to do the wii Dance 2 and I love it. gets my heart racing, brings me out in a sweat and I can sing along to the songs at the same time lol.

I love walking my little boy to school, its a mile there and back and I am enjoying the fact I dont huff and puff up the hill like I use to :). Found a stepometer I brought at Weight Watchers from about 2 years ago still in the box :-/ so wear that now to keep an eye on my steps, which prompts me to walk more.

Going to Zumba tonight for the first time and I am really looking forward to it.
 
Wow ! You're going great guns ! Don't do too much and over-stretch yourself, but enjoy it. x
 
well done hun = julie has been talking about zumba lessons alately too - i might have to see whats guin off in our area about doing something like that xxx have a good time
 
warmest welcome from me hunny! good luck on your journey, looking forward to following you every step xxxx
 
Day after the night before...

Oh Zumba was great, didnt realise it was going to be so fast.. started to sweat... then flag... LOL then the instructed shouted out just think of all the calories your burning, and it kept me going LOL.
There were some faster dances and some slower ones and the instructor worked with how we were getting on as it is a new class in the centre so new to all of us.

Met some new people, and had a laugh, and at the end she spent time going over some of the steps with us 'slowly'
it went so quickly roll on next week :)

(def need to tone up thou, could feel the inner thighs and bum wobbling a fair bit heheee :) )
 
Have you had a B12 injection? That might help.

Hi
I have never had B12, since having my op on 25th October 2010 I have had x1 appointment, when I rang to query why my March appointment had no arrived I was told by the secretary they are rally busy and there is no way they can get me in until May. My appointment in Friday 6th May.

I saw my GP on friday just gone, told him about this and he said it will pass, and also advised that I 'stop taking my multivitamins and just take them once a week!'...

I told him thats not what I was advised from the hospital - he was like no you dont need it. Crazy...

Anyway - I never did get back to the gym as the headaches, dizziness have become a daily thing, so I do what can then go to bed. God help me when I start back to work next week.
 
I'm looking out for it Mitz...

Love and hugs xxx
 
Ring your provider and say that that date isn't good enough. They need to squeeze you in and have a look at why you feel so pants.
Don't be fobbed off, it's not your fault they are behind or over booked or whatever. Put your foot down. I would.
