It's funny because it's true.


Well one year ago, I started this blog to get serious about my health and fitness.

That went well. NOT.

I will move on from the all the cliches.

So, I was asked by Peter at Kickstart fitness to join a "Body Transformation Challenge" which is being run by PT Method. the aim of the game is not to "lose weight", it is to "Transform" our Body.

So I thought about Goals. i have always had a weight goal. Peter asked us not to do this. We are destined for failure if we do this. I believe him. It hasn't worked well so far me, so let's do it differently.

After all, what is the definition of insanity? Doing the same and expecting a different result.

So lets do it differently.

Make a commitment, train with a team of 12 or so other like minded people who are also probably sick of themselves, lets train 5 days/week and support each other. This should work...shouldn't it?

Well it's up to me to make it work.

So everyday for the 12 weeks I am going to exercise. I am also going to eat well and ZERO alcohol.

Having PCOS doesn't help much as I know for about the first 6 weeks no weight will be lost based on past experience and then I usually give up but I have never trained hard 5 days/week.
So I plan to blog weekly and update Facebook everyday. I really want to share my experience with my fellow Cysters to see how quickly my body changes (or not).

I will post my stats in the next couple of days as we are being officially measured this week.

Please visit PT Method and watch the webisodes of us being tortured ;)

My Goals are to get the waistline to under 80cm, to be able to wear a sz 12...well, run 5km without stopping and hopefully all this will mean that my weight is under 70kg...I can only hope. I weighed myself and I am at 80.6kg but that's irrelevant.
