Sorry I haven't been around for over a week guys, I had the week off work and it was mad busy with no time to myself at all, the diet went out of the window I'm ashamed to say but firmly back on track as of yesteday!!
Got so much to tell you first and foremost as of Friday morning I can officially ride a bike, only needed one lesson, but cycling loads round the park ever since, I'm a bit nervous when other people, bikes, dogs etc are about but I am sure that will disappear with practice as I gain confidence.
Also I have a new job which I am very excited about - Executive Assistant to the Chair of the Institute for Innovation and Improvement (NHS national board) (bit of a mouthful!!) start on 3 August - can't wait to start and face my new challenges!!
Exercise going well, was too hot last week to go to the gym but went swimming 3 times - my 400m time is down to 11 mins now, having a nose clip and breathing underwater has made such a huge difference to my technique. Back in the gym today even managed a 3 min run on treadmill (well I have to start somewhere!!).

Loving the shoes, Lydia.
Well done on getting your new job - and the cycling - and the cutting down your time when swimming. I can see the triathlon is going to be a breeze
Running when you are wet might not be though

LOL!!! Its a daunting prospect but I'm loving the challenge already, really need to be 100% serious about the diet though, dropping a couple of stone will make the world of difference to my peformance on the day!!

Hi Lydia
Glad to see you back hun!
Well done on learning to cycle
Also partaking in the gym, I joined last wk and only doing rowing machine at mo not enough courage to get on running machine as yet! Also doing swimming too - doing 20 mins 4 times a week! I'm hoping it will tone up my back a bit as since losing my weight its all a bit baggy
