Thanks girls!

The before pic is a great idea Tina. I already have tons to look at to remember so I don't even need one at the moment. I have jeans that are struggling to contain my untoned thighs so I will ask them to give evidence!

I went for my assessment tonight and the trainer was really good. She asked about my goals (cardio fitness, the run in 8 weeks) and gave me a realistic workout. I am a healthy weight but I want to shed a few pounds to fit back into my skinnier clothes.

So, she recommended doing spin classes (which are amazing for cardio, and exhausting too) or 45 mins cardio with only using a max of two machines. Then she gave me toning exercises for my midriff as she said the machines will do enough for me in the upper and lower body toning.

We'll see!

You will find that in the last few weeks coming up to your wedding no matter what you eat you won't put on weight! It's God's gift to brides and a result of all the wedding running around trying to organise things and do things on your lunchbreak etc.

Good luck with this. P is on board with me as he has fitness goals too so we are going to help each other out, and we are in the same gym so we are going to motivate each other to go. Each Monday I am going to report in my reporting in how many days in the previous week that I went to the gym (minimum three) so that I am accountable here too- do you want to play that game too?
