So I have gained weight recently (like, way too much) and was feeling down because my job is so sedentary, I barely exercised.

But in the past two weeks that’s changed! I got a mini stepper for days when I just can’t get outside, got a wobble board for core workouts (that one is plain fun), and got ankle weights for walks.

Have done a 20-minute walk every day this past week. I’m already noticing more strength and stamina!

Going to keep this up and get FIT.

Congratulations!

I've recently started exercising again- press ups, squats and crunches with a view to picking up the free weights when I'm ready

My creaky hips and knees are moving easier and I can feel a muscle difference in my shoulders

I've also stopped eating crappy food too

Here's to a fitter and healthier us this year 👍

Hell yes! I am also trying to eat healthier. And do yoga for flexibility. We WILL be healthy and fit!
