Gotta love Orange!!

Thanks for the comments regarding my new colour choice!! I love orange! Thankfully my husband does too because I made him paint the feature wall in our bedroom this colour!!

Conversations that happened yesterday.

8.45am
Husband - "Honey - what are you going to do about this gym membership that is debited each fortnight - yet you never go. Why don't you just quit?"

Me - "Well now that you are back - I will have the chance to go!!"

I haven't been for about 2 months!! Slack I know! Haven't been motivated!


2.00pm - After a lovely lunch with a dear school friend who I haven't seen for over two years and she only lives 30 minutes away!!!

My mobile rings.

"Hi Shelly - this is Hannah from the Gym, I was just making a courtesy call to see if we can organise a time for you to come in so we can chat and get you back to the gym?"

Me - "Did my husband call you?"

Hannah (lots of laughing) -"No"

Me - "Are you sure?"

Hannah (still laughing) - "I am sure. Are you free tonight?"

Me - "Um - No" (thinking about the pasta dinner, glass of wine and chocloate to follow that I would be having that night!!)

So on Thursday the lovely Hannah (whoever she is - must have started working there in the time I have avoided the place) and I will chat about what my fat butt and belly really should be doing!!

tee hee .... I bet 'Hannah' told everyone at the gym how you were convinced your husband had dobbed you in!!

Re the gym: I reckon the trick is not to go tooooo often (I'm not kidding - I'm serious!). Twice a week to get some really good cardio exercise (and maybe a few weights too) means you don't get too fed up with the place. Then you can walk/swim/bike ride etc another 1-2 times per week and you're set. This is my theory, anyway!

I need to stop eating cake. Winter really makes me eat cake. I have bad muffin tops!

I need to go to the gym. Or something.
My muffins are fully grown cakes now!!

Then you must tell me what it is you have to do because I have no idea!

I think the secret to going to the gym is to just do it - don't think about it, get dressed and go then you have no room for wheedling out of it. Good luck!
