On the cross trainer this morning I thought to myself “Right, get back into the 4 mile session”. I set the target to 4 miles as upto now, and since starting the exercise again this year, I haven’t done any more than 2 miles. I have been walking a fair bit, but as part of my initial weight loss (around 2 years ago) I lost 2 stone by doing 4 mles.

I got to the 2 mile point and was almost ready to stop, thinking “Well 2 miles is better than none”, but I then kicked myself up the ass and carried on through. Some people may think “4 miles? So what? I run 8 miles or more a day” – well you carry on doing that and I will carry on exercising on my trainer and hopefully lose more and more weight!
