I know the feeling Brian having spent two days tidying up the garden and hauling the waste to the tip equal to weight lifting I think .

Think you're probably right Meg! I'm sure your little dog lends a paw though

Re: How do you keep fit and healthy?

I swim around 50-60 lengths Monday to Friday in the early morning. I also walk with the dog for a couple of hours around lunch time and we go to agility twice a week, that little lot keeps me fit-ish. I try to eat healthy but like Julie ....I too have my moments. I think my days of being a size 12 are long gone.

Re: How do you keep fit and healthy?

Hi Roxy, sorry for late response, have been away on a late holiday. Wow 50-60 lengths, phew makes me tired thinking about it. Had a little dog till a couple of weeks ago but we had to have her put to sleep. very sad.
May get another one. Miss her.
Keep swimming and jogging, all good stuff

It allows you to keep a check on calories and nutrition.
Sounds like your definitely in the zone Brian. Well done for making such an effort. I swim five times a week. When you find what's right for you then you're more likely to stick with it.

Re: How do you keep fit and healthy?

Hi Alice, thanks for the vote of confidence. I pretty much enjoy trying it (most of the time.) a little worried with Christmas coming upon us and the temptation to eat & drink a little too much will be a downfall.
Swimming 5 times a week is fantastic, well done!

Re: How do you keep fit and healthy?

Even if you gain a pound or two over Christmas, I'm sure it'll come off again in January!

I feel better after a swim - as if I've made an effort lol.

I'm sure it will Alice, haven't come this far to throw it all away.
Hope your swim went well today
