I Feel Radiant!!

Yep! Like I said........ I Feel Really Bloody Good today!
For the first time in ages my back doesn't hurt.
To make a short story long (hehe), it's been a pretty crummy year for me. In March last year I broke up with the love-of-my-life (a mutual decision but seriously painful none-the-less), I quit a job that was probably really good, but I was restless, took another job that I thought would be exciting and fun but turned out to be an absolute nightmare (was the worst 6 months of my life). Moved to Cleve. Then after about 5, moved here to Arno Bay. See a pattern here people?!
Oh, and I also quit smoking.
So consequently it's been a year since I've felt any good about myself. I've not exercised in all that time, I've eaten and drunk a whole pile of crappy stuff, I've forgotten how healthy and fit I used to be. And my body has slowly but surely been shutting down.
This last couple of weeks I've started walking again and been eating a lot healthier. This morning I started doing some basic pilates again (just the 'series of 5') and did a serious stretch workout like I used to do a year ago.
And Lo! The vertebra have parted!! My lower back feels the free-est it has in months and I feel like I can actually breath again!
I've been menu planning with my Symply Too Good to be True cook books and keeping a food diary and counting calories and feel so good again. I've lost a lot of weight before and I know it's not rocket science, it really IS just basic maths - Calories In v Calories Out.
I'm hoping too that some regular walking and a dramatic weightloss will help my poor sore knees (remember the fall down the stairs in January? Well, they still hurt, A LOT!)
Have a day off tomorrow so I'm going to set up my gym equipment to a mini circuit in the spare room. I can't do the fit balls yet because WITHOUT A CAR (STILL !) I can't get them pumped up. But thats okay, I've got plenty of stuff that I can use in the meantime.
So, Cheers everyone, Have a good day
