Life In Pain
Imagine waking up every morning, unable to sit on the toilet or bend over the sink to splash water on your face until you’ve been up and walking about for at least half an hour. As some of you may know, if you follow my Instagram, I’ve spent the last week in hospital due to herniated discs in my spine. This is a more personal post than usual but I thought I’d share what’s been happening in the hope it will help people understand what it’s like to live with chronic pain and hopefully sharing the experience will help someone else feel less alone with what they’re going through.

Scan Bran Victoria Sponge (well not quite)
Scan Bran….. You either love it or hate it and I must say, I quite like it!

I’m failing miserably at getting back on the Slimming bandwagon but desperate to get back on the yoga train as I literally hurt everywhere! I think the food side I can slowly work on as I clear the crap food from the house and start to refill my fruit bowl with actual fruit instead of chocolate oranges and the pile of sweets that it is currently housing. The exercise part is going to start again today though;…

30 Day Yoga Challenge Results
As you may have seen from Instagram and/or previous blog posts I challenged myself to do a 30 Day Yoga course that I found on YouTube. Well tonight, I completed it. It did take me slightly longer than 30 days because I have had to miss the odd day due to not having time to fit it in (usually weigh in night) but I always picked it up again the next day.

Day 11 of the 30 Day Yoga Challenge
I’ve been doing a 30 day yoga challenge that I found on YouTube in order to help ease my back pain and to generally just tone up at bit (see my previous diary blog post for a more in depth description of what’s actually wrong with my back).

My 30 Day Yoga Challenge
I’ve set myself a bit of a fitness challenge as I’ve become a bit complacent again lately and it’s starting to show.
Just another lifestyle blog.
