Monday 15th October

Just been to my first fitness class - Total Toning. It was really good! When I first got there I thought I would hate it because it was like circuit training and I used to be terrible at that kind of thing when I was at school, but I really got in to it. I managed to keep up with most of it, and the instructor said I did really well for a first time. I discovered some things I'm really quite good at, like planks and back bends, and I managed to keep going until right to the end. I did skipping, press ups (not so good at those), bench press weights, running, step aerobics. I want to book on to another class as soon as I can!

When I got in I made myself a cashew nut, Quorn and pea curry again, with steamed vegetables. And I had a fairly healthy lunch too.

I used my pedometer - 10963 steps, although I think between 2000 and 3000 of those were when I was accidently jiggling my leg at my desk.. 4428 aerobic steps is probably a better indicator, that's 42 mins.

We had a big presentation today from the big boss of the entire company. He's so good, really inspiring. He almost makes me forget I need to get out of there. Need to stop festering... The good news was we'll be getting a pay increase across the company, but this time it will be based on levelling out pay across the different bands and also on productivity... So there's an average of 3% increase I'm hoping for more than that because I know I work a lot more than most people in my team and I'm pretty sure I'm paid less than some.
