Day one and two

Well having signed up so late I had to do both days today.... Fortunately I ate pretty well yesterday and the food thing was survivable today. I will update weight and stuff in time - but whilst I am not at my heaviest I am still a pretty chunky 117 kgs. First target is 105 kgs and then we will see if I can break the magic 100 number. But for me this is about fitness for pleasure and for my family and personal satisfaction.

So today I managed 500 jump ropes and 2 days of exercises. I am feeling it but it was better than I expected. I also struggled with the jump ropes but got up to doing around 40 in a go without stumbling so there is progress. Like George B I have a couple of ropes and I love my old fashioned rope one for now - with a couple of notes in the middle to centralise the weight.

Photo attached and shows there is a lot of work to do. I do hope that not too many people have the pleasure of viewing this but as they say the public declaration is very important.

Thanks for the early encouragement guys - I know there are going to be some tough days out there. Good luck everyone and thanks!
