Overview

Hi there!  For years i've shunned any kind of excercise stating many various excuses but 5 weeks ago i bit the bullet.  My first  time out 'running' was a shambles could barely walk or breathe let alone run!!!  Five weeks in and i'm loving it. Go out 3 times a week, early doors (5am!!!!!! ahhhh) just me and my music. Can jog/run for 25 mins now without stopping - i know hardly alot but i'm proud of me.  Going to keep increasing pace and would like to take part in a 5km run by end of year.  I love running in the rain (cools me down and hides the sweat -yuk) which is great cos we get loads in England. So if ever you see a fat girl running give her a big smile and blow her a kiss.

Valentines day date at a theatre - of sorts!!

Well back out today running. Have been out of action last few weeks due to surprise problems with my gallbladder.  Started bout 3 weeks ago, i went to my doctor and A&E and was told that i had a gastric virus, after 4 days of the most immense pain i was taken to A&E (again), looking like a member of the simpsons!!! After tests and a lovely stay in hospital care of the NHS, they found that i had an infection and inflammed gall bladder chock full of stones.  I've never suffered from any problems before so it came as a bit of a surprise.  I am now going into hospital again on Valentines day to have it removed...how romantic....a date with a surgeon at a theatre lol.  On the plus side its making me stick to a very low fat diet so the weight is coming off i've now lost in total 31/2 stone and hoping to lose 4 stone by the time i go skiiing at the End of March...it will be the lightest i've been for at least 12 yrs if i do!!!  In the meantime i'm taking it slowly exercising and looking forward to my up coming date...

Thanks for reading

Queenie x

(((Big Hug))) as long as it doesn't hurt.

Hope that it's all sorted soon and that the trip to hospital is over with quickly.

Bit of a drastic way to lose weight though. Don't think I will be trying that diet plan!
