Great work Hally! :D

I went for an hour long walk around the boardwalk this morning, up and down the hills :) I did a Michelle Bridges DVD yesterday too so my legs were feeling it! ;D

Ummmmm::)

Well I am glad I picked up the free hbf pedometer, I dont see the need in buying one.

Mine reset at 20,000 & at 4pm this afternoon had done over 5,000.

So 25,000 so ar, off in the pool now. I also noticed tat it ddnt pick up the rower at the gym as I am nt walking.

Amy, are you still doing your trainng course?

No, I withdrew from the course when I was really sick last year Hally :( I might pick it up again later, but for the moment I need to get a job and save up!! :D

I still have all the knowledge though, just no certificate yet ;)

Great work Hally. I'm trying to get back into the gym much more, I've only managed to do a few personal training session and a some walking while working such long crazy hours. It's so hard to fit everything I want to do in on top of working but I really need to get my head straightened out and back to exercise most days. Amy it's such a shame that you weren't able to keep up with the course. Did you end up getting everything sorted out? I think I might have stopped coming on here just as you were finishing up with all your tests. Hope you are back on the mend

Good one H.
Nice to see this thread popped up again.
When recovered from the lurgy I have a bike to test ride from a friend.

Anyone suggest a good free app on iPhone for pedometer. I am confused by what's on offer and if any good.

My previous phone did it brilliantly. When I used to ride m pony too 15k was the norm. I am hoping to get paid fr pony soon and if so and like the bike then I may spend it n that.
I am only getting a small sum as he failed the vet,unexpectedly with osteoarthritis. Still it is a good Home and one less bill. I can stop the insurance and sell the saddle. Sad but true.
Xx

It would be comforting to know your pony has a good home DJ  :)  bad luck about the osteoarthritis though

Thanks Wonder and astarra :) None of my tests came back conclusive so it was a bit of a guessing game treating the symptoms. I seem to be well on track now so I just have to keep and eye out and see if anything flares up again ;)
Thanks girls :-*

So do I astarra, but all the tests and needles were starting to really stress me out :-\ We figured it might be easier to treat the symptoms and give me a break. If I start getting the exact same symptoms again then we will already know what tests we don't have to do ;)

Had to already promise DH I would do nothing...well, not much...today!  :-))
But while I felt yuk physically, I think I felt worse emotionally as I felt like I hadn't looked after my girls very well by fainting! Silly I know but imagine if something had happened while I was out to it on the floor..... :o :(

I think you can forgive yourself astarra, fainting isn't really optional... if your body wants to do it, it'll do it :P
Were you out for very long? At least you were at home and not somewhere unfamiliar to the girls.

I really don't know how long - just know it was long enough to burn lunch!!!!  :-))
Yeah, the first thing I heard when I came to was miss3 saying "shh, mummy's having a sleep - bit silly for her to have it on the floor tho, isn't it!"  :D
:D
