Remember ha thread where we stated what Xmas jobs we intend to do that day, and then came on later and said whether we had done them or not? Well.

Well done!

Done my exercise biking now. Did it to Roy Orbison this time. 'Downtown' lends itself very well to pedalling, as does the last few bars of 'It's Over'.

I do find music helps. Apart from anything else it seems to get into your psyche and helps lift your spirits. Wouldn't really recommend it whilst walking though. You need to be aware of your surroundings. But with walking, there are other distractions, so it's win win really.

After it wantonly threw me in the road on Monday, I'm not going on my bike for a while! However: I pledge to go and row for 20 minutes. That's it. I'm off now. Brilliant thread Jings

You back yet icy? Was it on the sea? Was it chilly?

I'm still ill - I have to go back to work tomorrow so will staggering from sofa to desk count until I'm recovered? I DO intend getting fit AND losing weight sometime this year - just not this week

10 mins on bike ! 15 mins floor exercises . No junk food yesterday but what do we now do with the Christmas choccies - a daily treat , take them into work on Tuesday , watch them all go white ?

I'm planning a one-hour walk at a brisk pace - rain is forecast for most of the day!

That is amazing tow! Well done.

As your Xmas chocs are still around on 3rd Jan, you have obviously got fantastic will power! So keep having a couple a day. Or do the most dreaded thing - bin 'em.

I wouldn't mind doing a river walk too rw but it's still aiming and I'm a bit chesty already. So exercise bike, here I come.

raining. Not aiming. Though that could be right. Sigh!

I did the walk - 55 minutes.

A bit of drizzle here and there and it's cold in the wind but am feeling invigorated. Could do with a two-hour walk really but didn't want to get soaked!

Wow! So early too! V good.

Did half hour on bike. To old Roy-o again. Got Barry Manilow on CD player ready for tomorrow.

Hope you are feeling better soon willow.

Ten leg raises to strengthen hip movement just now. And ten cluttock benches. And ten pressing knees down. And I promise to do them twice more minimum.will that do?

' cluttock benches', Stansgran - love it ! I'm going to try benching my cluttocks , too !

There's actually a glimmer of sun here at the moment so I will abandon the exercise bike and go for a walk instead. Feeling a bit 'after Xmas down', so I need to walk away from it for a while. Got a take-back to do at Marks and Sparks so can include that. Will get first wash load on before I go.

I expect to return practically on my knees.

If no one else participates in this thread, it could become my personal diary. Like a blog really.

You have been warned. It will be boring.

Can't anyone else say what exercise they intend to do today?! Even if it's just hoovering the living room?! Or taking the dog round the block?!

Can't we get some action slight movement going here?

Well it is pouring here so nothing outdoors for me although DH will be taking the dog. If it stops I will cut back the wisteria to two buds so does a bit of stretching count?

I did 15 mins on the bike, then 20mins dancing and floor exercises. Was planning a walk on the beach later but it's wild, windy and raining here . I'll dance more instead ! I've done my ironing enthusiastically as well .

Crikey! All that?! You put me to shame!

Yes whitewave. That will do nicely.

I'd have biked to work but I've got a tummy bug and all I can do is crawl to the loo.

On the other hand, I haven't eaten much.....

Have to put off the wisteria as it is still raining and be dark in an hour so annoying.

Might go up and down the ladder to the loft instead and put all the decs away.

You know when I said on Saturday I was going to do 20 minutes on the rowing machine? Because I fell off my bike last Monday and couldn't cycle? Well, it turns out I had broken my arm a bit... Very dangerous, this exercising. I'm supposed to be going skiing on Friday too. Sigh.

Oh no!

#notmyfault

Only exercise I'm doing today is upping and downing chairs to take decs down. And exhaustion is setting in.
