Bien dans sa peau!

I want to be comfortable in my own skin, but after my fitness class this week, comfortable is the last word I would use to describe my body. My legs hurt like hell, no pain no gain is more a English point of view than a European one I think. During this hour of squatting, sit-ups and other forms of torture, my mind started to wonder to the other side of the English Channel again.


More ways to get to Cannes - exercise related.
8. Walk:  Calais - Cannes do it for Charity and get sponsored - Everyone’s a winner!! Apart from my feet.
9. Cycle to Cannes : I did find http://www.cycle2cannes.org  .....mmmm maybe next year.


Ok I would be lying if I said Frenchmen were not a big factor in my love of France, and I took these comments about me being fat and ugly to heart and after crying in my pillow for a week, I went on a fitness regime. The wrong attitude to take at the time but maybe it was the kick up my fat backside I needed to start taking care of myself and my love of food is stronger than their comments so there was no chance of me developing an eating disorder. Now I work out (and moan about it) and eat healthy (most of the time) for myself not for anyone else.


I begged to differ with these views. Ok He is right with the ugly point but the fat issue - NON! I’m 35, a size 10, I weigh 55kg and I have a Wii-fit body age 27 today (ok couldn’t really believe the Wii - last weekend my Wii- age was 49!) . The past two months have been crazy starting a new job, controlling my feelings for Monsieur X and living on microwave meals for a month while waiting for the new kitchen to be installed. So I have lost 6kgs already and I don’t need to lose anymore weight but toning up would help.


But that will be after this weekend of oeufs en chocolat! lol


My mind is wondering - part 2
10. Actually go to the gym instead of looking at my gym membership card thinking ‘I should go’. So that:
11. I look and feel good so that another Frenchman might invite me to Cannes.


I’m drifting off into bizarre world - give me CHOCOLAT!!! FEED THE MACHINE!!


Happy Easter!
