I know Monday's aren't easy, but it is a new day for you all, a new working week, and the chance to better things in your life that perhaps are bringing you down a little bit. I know some thing's aren't perfect, but did anyone tell you on the day your were born that every day was going to be so god damn amazing and everything in this world was A-OK? Nope, didn't think so. Get with the programme peeps, Monday comes every week, at the same time - deal with it.
This weekend, I took a long hard look at myself (not easy on a no make-up day that's for sure) and realised exactly what I have around me. It was all spurned on by a group of certain people: Karleen Smith - who quite frankly is the most positive person I know and always manages to make me see sense. she also writes a pretty darn amazing blog, she HERE, and also my fab neighbour, Jennie, who is such an amazing woman and I get to have her as my neighbour, I mean how lucky am I?! I have decided that I need to stop wallowing in my own pity, lets face it, its not going to help me, or my situation and it also means I can stop moaning at all you lovely people (your ears can breathe a sigh of relief)
I have started cycling to work again, which on average is about 3-4 miles each way, and yes I know it's not much, but a little bit of exercise in the morning is amazing and to top it all, I feel so good about me, it helps when you sing to Michael Jackson at 7am to no-one at all! As well as doing this, I shall be running in the evenings every other day and par-taking in a work out DVD. I am trying out Davina's Body Buff DVD as quite frankly, it is a little bit of awesome. Targeting specific areas is what this DVD does best, and let me tell you, I sure as hell need that (I will be doing a full review shortly) So my fitness plan is DONE! I am also going to be joining Nutra-Check again. This is something I joined a fair few years ago now, and is just an online food diary! simples! As a daily sufferer of crippling IBS attacks it is imperative that I get to grips with my standard of eating, and let me tell you all now - it aint good!
Something for you!
Aside from my plan to life, I'm also sending daily/weekly emails to two of my gorgeous senoritas: @avragejosephine and @katybbrap - these two girls are in the same boat as me: we all want to lose a stone and kick this years ass! The emails are going to focus on health, fitness and food, doing new things and working on you as a person! It will consist of tasks to be done, advice, motivational words and tips on making this year the best year. I don't claim to know everything in life but what I do know, is that you are a long time dead, so this coupled with my new way of thinking, I wanted to spread some of my kick-assness to people. The first email has already gone out, and if anyone would like in on this email, do drop me a line on: sarahs_scribbles@yahoo.co.uk Sbject: Drop a stone and Kick-Ass and I will add you and include you in on this road to life full of fun! What have you got to lose huh!?
Well, that's my preaching done for today! Tell me, how are you feeling this Monday????

I cannot recommend sugar free diet enough - no more bloating, no more stomach cramps. It IS worth giving up cake for that :)
I actually don't mind Mondays, its Tuesday I dislike. Already into the week but not far enough to look forward to the weekend lol. Yay for cycling to work, well done :) xx
I have had a similar weekend to you. Had a Blue Saturday but by Sunday had told self to buck up. And today? Feel as though a weight has been lifted. Here's to letting go of the weighty burdens and remembering, well, that we're alive! Have a great week sweetheart xxx
