180

That is One hundred and eighty ... To be yelled like a darts score.

So I did decide to buy Joe Wicks' expensive diet and exercise plan because he gave me a reduction of twenty quid,  Mad? Not entirely because I have put a few things in place ready for the whole JW experience which will be happening for real once they have worked out a diet and exercise plan for me.  I thought off the shelf would be fine but apparently it is all individual.  So then 90 days of less biscuits/cake etc.  I have a huge cake to make today for the church meeting so I might have a feast before the famine, a last supper of Victoria sponge.

 I have started buying ridiculously expensive food and following the rather good recipes in his book.  They are supposed to take 15 minutes but somehow take me ages.  Yesterday I bought sea bass and got the fishmonger to fillet it - £24.  Twenty four quid.  The problem is Joe is writing for big male athletes with huge appetites so they need half a pound of fish.  There are two of us so after much maths of two x 125g fillets per person .... Um er carry one that is 250g and the same for him = 500g of fish.  This is only marginally cheaper than mermaid.

I have also joined the ranks of the bootcampers at Old Romney.  Hard work but I really enjoyed it.  Lots of jumping up and down.  I did pull a muscle in my thigh yesterday but I am sure it will get better soon.  Although this is more cardio rather than HITT I am really getting into it and it is so much better than nothing.  Getting disgustingly sweaty is a whole new thing.  And I used to always stop exercise the moment a teeny bead of perspiration appeared on my forehead but now I am drowning and fine with it.

Even if I don't lose weight I will be a lot fitter.
